This pic made my day. As an HVAC guy and a watch guy, you would never expect to see a reverso anywhere near a control board. Good on you for fixing it bud. You did make sure the *red wire went to the C terminal right?

Haha, as I was changing it out I had laugh because I was wearing the Reverso and knew I needed to take a pic. I was installing my Nest Thermostats. Somehow I turned the power to the furnace on and the wires touched and blew a fuse. All fixed and the thermostats are in installed and working.

Signed crown compliance. Was watching the 49ers game while my little princess slept on me.

Hey @Stretch44...I'm with @Dub Rubb, your Reverso pic has to be a first. A real one of a kind! :)

Kudos!

I still can’t figure out what the focus is in this thread. Is it evolving and based on activities of regulars?

Clearly the focus of the thread is cat pictures, just like the rest of the internet.

In all seriousness, it's sole purpose was to set up daily rules of watch compliance that would hopefully get people to wear the watches in the back of their watchbox in the name of compliance.

The compliance rules have never been mandatory, and sometimes it's fun to just make up your own.

Signed Crown Sunday - watches with signed crowns

Mod Monday - any watch that has been modded, even if just a strap change

Tool Watch Tuesday/Titanium Tuesday

Vostok / Vintage Vednesday

Two Crown Thursday (two pushers count as one crown)

Field watch Friday

Seiko Saturday

There was an update after a couple years to keep things fresh, that was initially meant to be temporary, but has turned into some sort of hybrid compliance:

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

Tough Thursday - Watches that can take a lickin' and keep on tickin'

Fri-Dive - divers

Swanky Saturday/Sport Watch Saturday- dress/Sport watches only

Nailed it!!!!

If you aren't compliant on any particular day, that's no reason not to post either. Pics with pets, beverages, or food are always welcome as well. It's all just in the name of fun anyways.
