[mention]Dub Rubb[/mention], I felt like an idiot trying to figure that thing out at first. The light bulb turned on and it made sense. Very comfortable and I'll probably pick one up.

[mention]Rabirnie[/mention] I commend you on your reading. I so wish I co do it because I love a good book. I feel like I have no time with a two and four year old and work. It's like an eff'n mad house here. Half the time either my wife or myself fall asleep in our kids rooms!

Evening switch and I'm still compliant. MoT member heads up crazy good deal and tool watch compliance.

I’ve had to truly define time after the kids go down to pick up books and get back into the habit of reading. Fortunately, Millard’s trilogy of works were so gripping that I actually had a few nights where I’d stay up until 1am (damn, re-reading that sentence made me feel old). This ended up being a terrible choice with a 9 month old, 3 year old, and work, but I just couldn’t put it down.

Going vintage today with the sunlight highlighting every scratch in the Challenge Timer's crystal.

Given that there are newer more expensive versions of this ..... This qualifies now as Vintage

I tried to give the Benrus a spin today. It stops running sometimes and I haven’t worn it enough to figure out what it going on. It almost got me today when I started to trust it and was watching the time before a meeting :roll:. Turns out that it gets stuck. Seems like a bump or two gets it going.

Vintage first, then the BRD called out like a siren. Enjoying some near 70 degree weather here today and snuck in a run between meetings.

That is cool and I know that it is hard to capture in pictures. It is going to be fun to see what all you do with that band :mrgreen:

Not exactly a NATO, but close enough for compliance.

Still honeymooning with this one. Had to wear it again to see that awesome roulette date wheel.

It's Thursday! Just finished dinner and watching Fun and Fancy Free with the kiddos before bed. Such a busy week and can't wait for tomorrow.

NATO and beverage compliant today, but don’t look too closely at the date. In my haste to get out and enjoy the warmer weather, I completely forgot to set the date on the NTH.
