So cool sir ! 😎😎

What's really neat too, is that you are using an analog watch, and it's
bezel for timing your adventures like this.(y)😀So many of us get
caught up in the digital world with things like this. ..Bravo True !!! :)

Thanks Tom! The Bezel design is kinda like the original Turn-O-Graph

Well that is something huh sir?! 🤯😵

The watch was already amazing looks wise, but didn't even realize
that about the bezel, or the similarity to the Turn-O-Graph. Yowza !😮

Thank you very much for the lesson, and filling us in about this True !!!

Still looks beautiful sir, but now looks like it has more of a matte
finish to it right?! 😀 ..It's so neat because even though it is the
same exact watch as you got a years ago, it almost feels like a
different version. (y)(y) Pretty amazing sir, and evidently if you
leave it alone, it will become another watch, and another after
than down the road. And so on, and so on. 😵😎

Actually is beyond cool, and so was this update. Thank you so
much for the look, as well as report True !!!
Divers are my Fav, haven't had a bronze diver yet but it's on my list
I find I have to buff mine fairly regularly because living in South Florida, my arm sweat makes the patina turn a little too green fairly quickly.

Hate to waste a strap so I am trying my old Escapement Time yellow strap on the Cronos.

The yellow and bronze looks cool, the yellow and jade not so much.

I'm sure you're not the only Freek who does, watches like art are so personal. That's a whole lot of flavor.

Thanks! Didn't realize I had put the strap on backwards until I looked at the photo again.

This is yet another amazing aspect of this hobby True..older forgotten
straps, or bracelets ! (y)(y) So many times you, or e get a strap, or
bracelet, but then we might forget about it, or put it away in a draw,
or something. But it's still there waiting to have fun, and be used on
countless other watches. :) ;) And actually the possibilities are
endless, as one strap can transform those countless watches into
entirely different animals.

Looking good True, or awesome to be more accurate !

Hey, you might have put the strap on backwards, but at least you are good at laying sod! You photographed it green side up. ;)
