Thank you for appreciating it my man!!

I presume in a few months the bluesy will be gracing my BIL’s wrist as I haven’t worn it since before Christmas. Hopefully he will continue documenting its adventures and sending them to me to post or making an account and adding them to this thread.

We shall see.

Mr goat! Such an insane Great thread.

The bluesy comes with responsibilities — Namely keeping this thread going! If BIL isn’t up for it, maybe we’d all better find a better recipient!

Hahahaha, I appreciate the concern for the Bluesy. He currently wears a $30 Timex but his son is going to inherit my watches when I’m gone. So I figure he needs a Rolex so his son can start associating them with memories of his dad and gain an appreciation of them so mine don’t get sold when he gets them.

Only rules are 1. Wear it everyday like he wears his Timex. 2. When it needs to be serviced give it back to me and I will have it serviced.

We are going to talk about it in February when he is down.

A Sea-Dweller. It will have its own thread soon enough.

You should make him eat it out of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich…..figuratively speaking….sort of. I’ll explain further if you don’t get that, but I think you will.

Make him do something messy and weird with it straight away, something that would normally give you pause. This is to show that you can do anything with the watch and you don't have to worry about doing odd things with it.

Thanks!! As stated before, the Sub is probably on its way to my BIL. If I can talk him into sending wrist shots every once in a while or joining TRF then maybe will be able to keep this thread alive.

Happy New Year!!
