Seiko(bracelet) Saturday compliant. These jubilees are flipping fantastic. Very rattley, but so so comfortable. It never occurred to me that the 013 20mm jubi could work on so many other watches.

HUISABH compliant with the Timex M79 deal from Macy's. Of course I can't leave well enough alone, so a dial swap was in order before the plastics were even removed [emoji23].

I dunno man. They are like $30. . .

Of course you should! With a kanji day wheel of course. Also, black day wheel and white date wheel would look the business.

Signed Crown Sunday with the same watch. While I think despite the 8205 movement these are still worth every penny of $280, it's a no brainer at $120.

Switch compliance? Caught up on some yard work today. I hope the G is up for its next tough task: playing video games on the couch.

Four pushers equal two crowns? Ani Digi Thursday? Whatever...

Does that have a crown? How do you set the hands of it doesn't?
The hands are completely electronic.

Since the watch has Multiband 6 (picks up atomic clock signals) it sets itself. There is a manual time setting mode, and you can switch from your home time to a designated travel/world time. Any of those makes the hands move. Kind of trippy to watch happen. Maybe I'll take a video of it.
Whoa, that's cool! Please do make a video. In the middle of reading I was wondering what that looks like.
Video made!

The first part is going through the modes, the rest is swapping to the selected world time zone and then switching back to the home time zone.

Not really a mod, but more like a hilarious homage. This thing cracks me up while Also being really cool. The Squander 665 at most. Just a very fun watch that doesn't take itself(or it's owners) seriously.

After a Chilean post office mess up (package fell behind a sorter), my Martu order finally arrived!

Custom length (140mm/90mm) on each. The blue is cork and will be for the Captain Cook and the green is canvas and will live on the Airboss.

Claiming semi-Mod Mondy compliance. :)
