One of my favorite parts of the BSH thread is the daily rules of compliance because they caused me to reach into the back of the watch box and wear watches I may not have worn in the name of compliance. I plan to do something similar here, with a couple twists. Some days will have multiple ways to comply.
Here goes:
Mod Monday - any watch that has been modded, even if it is just a strap change.
Timex Tuesday/Tool Watch Tuesday - pretty self explanatory.
Vintage Vednesday/Vostok Vednesday - we as a collective can decide what is considered vintage, but I was thinking at least 20 years old.
Two Crown Thursday/ NATO Thursday - you guessed it! Watches with 2 crowns(or more) or anything on a NATO strap.
Field Watch Friday - again, self explanatory.
Seiko Saturday - A classic not to be meddled with.
Signed Crown Sunday / Citizen Sunday- Show off those watches with Signed/engraved crowns.
There are also two other methods that will be considered ALWAYS compliant, No matter the day of the week.
1) Any watch posted alongside an adult beverage will always be considered compliant.
2) Any watch purchased from MoT's HUISABH thread will also always be considered compliant.
3) "Let it be compliant any timepiece accompanied by meat deliciously prepared by smoke or flame regardless of beast, cut or spice." AKA the Carnivore Rule.
4) Pet compliance. Any picture of your watch and pet together(bonus points if your pet is wearing the watch).
5) Great meal compliance. We are not all carnivores here, and there are some fantastic meals to be had that don't include meat. As long as you consider it to be a great meal, and your watch dial matches your veggie choice?(kidding) I hereby deem compliance. Bonus points on Veggie Vednesday.
Also, any of [mention]Sporkboy[/mention] (or anyone else's) MoT dials whenever they become readily available will always be compliant.
The main goal of this thread is to have fun and maybe wear some watches in your collection you may not otherwise. And just like the other thread there is only one rule.
In honor of a great member of the WRUW thread on F71 (Charles "Askofu" Wiggins)who has recently passed (more info here if you would like to read https://forums.watchuseek.com/forum.php ... 629?page=1) the only rule will be to "be kind" as that is all he ever asked of everyone. So simple yet so effective.
That's it boys, now dig into your watch boxes and have some fun!

Time to shake it up!!!
I figured that since today marks the 2 year anniversary of the legion, what better time to throw this idea out there.
I propose that for the month of July we adopt a new set of compliance rules dubbed "Compliance V2". Ironman and I came up with some ideas, but we still have a few days to get some feedback on different ideas for the days and whatnot, but here is what we came up with so far:
Small Watch Sunday - doesn't have to be technically small, just on the small side of your collection
Magic Monday - whatever piece makes you happy to help with the passing of the weekend and being back at the office.
Tick Tick Tuesday - Quartz watches
Wild Card Wednesday - anything goes, the wilder the better, but everything is compliant
Tough Thursday - Watches that can take a lickin' and keep on tickin'
Fri-Dive - divers because divers are dope
Sultry Saturday/Sport Watch Saturday- dress/Sport watches only
I think this could be a fun way to keep things fresh, but since this is a democracy, I would love some feedback and also input if you have any ideas.
Cheers friends, and long live the Legion!!!
