I always took a liking to this reference but really more so when I found out about the short lived 2009-2012 1st Gen Ceramic Smurf Blue dial. It’s stunning in person & especially under direct sunlight.

Thank you all for the amazing compliment!! I don’t consider it to be of the caliber you all do, I’m just glad it resonates with some and hopefully inspires people to wear their watches and enjoy them.

Thanks MrGoat for all the inspiration! Just wondering about any other watches in your collection or what you wore before the Bluesy that you had good memories with?

You’re very welcome, Thank you for the compliment!!

I really don’t have a “collection” at the moment. Certainly no other watches the caliber of my 16613LB.

I never took wrist shots with any of my other watches but have always had a watch on my wrist since I was a kid. I don’t believe any of my previous watches lasted more than a couple years before being destroyed.

Back to the wrist shot thing, I found this forum when I was trying to do my due diligence and joined after I bought my bluesy. I noticed while lurking that wrist shots were a thing so it just became a thing I’d do occasionally to document the memories I’ve made with my watch on my wrist.

Safe to wear to catch a couple stray pups in the yard and bring them to the emergency vet to check for a chip.

Their owner is out of town and wanted them relinquished to animal services. If they don’t pick them up my information has been given to animal services and we will most likely take these bonded boys in.

Cool thread! I don't know how I missed it the first five times?

With your SWFL geography, I wondered if you were in or near Naples, where we go. But with all the actual work you do, obviously not!

Continue to enjoy that beauty!
