A week on the wrist

Recommended Posts

Thommo82

(Couldn't find original post)

So this last week I've been doing @Griffo's week on the wrist challenge. I even had Griffo choose the watch, this one

One thing is for certain. I will NEVER do this again. It broke me. I feel I lost part of my soul. By day three I was completely impotent.

Needless to say, I found this rather challenging and I feel I must come up with a punishment for Griffo as he was the one who caused me so much anguish.

Any suggestions?

I quite liked the idea to be fair although knew I wouldn't be able to stick to it, I think no punishment should be given as at least he was trying to get something different on the forum.

Lovely watch by the way really like it!

Cheers, I like it too, but a week seemed like a century!

I have 2 AP's, as Seb Buemi and a Marcus Limited edition black and white. I love the Marcus edition so much it is almost permanently on my wrist.

So you only have 2 watches?

That makes it a touch easier....

I have 20 watches (which I considered a small collection) and they all beg me for wrist time

I work 6 days a week I pretty much wear a toro special bell and Ross BR02 every day, a m2m micro stepper Tudor has eaked in too. 

Id love to do a week a watch but work prohibits anything other than a rugged watch

Yes I got the Popeye from invicta which is very yachtmasterish I think it's a good all around watch, not as flashy as my DSSD from PC, but find myself wearing the invicta often, and the case is sweet20170826_173807.jpg

Reminder this picture was taken with an invicta camera prototype

Yeah that's not bad actually. Not for me, mind... I was never big on Popeye (possibly an age thing! :rofl: )

I would want one where his legs were the watch hands, shooting flames at all hours of the day like a boss

If you find one let me know I'm in... about to make another purchase of 2 more watches from a TD, this addiction can run deep fast,

Had a little look, the ones I saw looked a bit crappy.  Will let you know if I find a good one.

Bought an Invicta Mickey Mouse at the GTG.  Pretty well worn it exclusively since then.. The only time I wear something different is if I leave the house.

Can you give a wrist shot of the Marcus.  Not many people have it but I just love it.  Thanks.

Give me a week or so as my camera has to go off to be calibrated, it needs a good camera to do it justice.
