Icon12 Sea Dweller conquers The Peak in Hong Kong

After surviving bathtub diving with my SDDS, I've now conquered The Peak in Hong Kong.

OK it's not quite Mount Everest. Just my front yard actually, but hey I do what I can to stay somewhat amused.

Today the weather is a little better, so I took another picture. This time I pan the camera a few degrees towards the east to include TST (Tsim Sha Tsui) area across the harbor. If you have ever been in HK you'll recognize TST in the picture.

Yes, absolutely but not only in TST, but Causeway Bay and Central as well. There must be more watch shops than 7 Elevens here.

May i ask what is the size of your wrist ?

so i can figure out the size of the watch vs. your wrist.

mine are a hair short of 7" but i find the deep sea very tempting
thank
