In the most recent "Watchtime" mag, there is an article on Larry Seiden where he is quoted saying "Watches Come to Me"

I know what he means

The watch virus got it's claws into me just in the last couple of years. Each of them presented themselves to me after I researched and felt what I was drawn to. Then it drew its self to me!

This is the latest edition. I had seen these before, had a look everywhere, all were far outside my price range... I stopped looking and then one day looking for something completely different (NOT WATCHES) it appeared on my screen!

You have to jump at these things because they will be gone forever if you don't!

Started to like the Hamiltons and was drawn to the uniqueness of the Frogman.
Missing seeing the sweeping hand, but I've got something else that does that.









It's bigger than I expected.
The Green canvas strap is way to stiff and uncomfortable on my wrist.
I'm surprised at just how comfortable the black rubber strap is, so it's staying on for now.

Thinking it might look good with an OEM Orange rubber X-Copter strap, so it's on order. They are both the same width and look so fingers crossed.

Seems Titanium also like to find me!

Thanks for looking!
