Shitty drive, especially with there being 2 accidents as well.

dang...

I get the rest of the stuff later this week.

Also got all of my watchmaking supplies in today. Only takes ~3 days from Hong Kong via Hong Kong Post. Funny since it can take 6+ days to get something from California!

Since I'm an uber productive employee on Mondays I took the time to swap the bezel insert from my new SKX007 automatic diver:

I think I may change the dial and hands soon.

nice!

Not familiar with the Orient movement but I'll look into it for you.

You should have a regulation dial if you open the case back. Have a looksy: For those of you who are considering regulating your mechanical movement.... (Image Heavy)

If you open it up and make an adjustment make a small one since they are usually pretty sensitive. You can see just how tiny of an adjustment that guy made.

Hi guys. Just checking in again. Had to call into work tonight. I think I got a sinus infection from the AC in the motel. Headache, body aches and sneezing my head off. Oh then my nose drains like a hose.

brucelidat glad you didn't wreck. I was suprised all weekend and no bad drivers. Did get a couple pissed looks from prious drivers going 12mph over the speed limit. I go 9 and stay in the fast lane, I do pull over if I see somebody coming up on me.

m4a1mustang · 06-25-2012, 03:19 PM

I've been looking at turbo kits for the s2k all day long. I don't think it's worth it, but I'm not done doing my analysis so we'll see.

Fire · 06-25-2012, 03:21 PM

Those pedo-bear wheels are dope. LOL
