Because I wanted to share something with people who would understand...

For the past month I have been wearing my lovely Tritium 14060 and enjoying it immensely…






But today I pulled out my 7.4 mil 666…


And was again instantly reminded why it is indeed my favorite reference…

I don't own either of those watches, and I completely understand.

I get it Clay. I had some new flooring done in the house the other day and do not have access to my watches. I have had to wear the same watch for nearly 3 days in a row!!!

It is nice to renew a lost love. Don't let the 14060 sit too long.....in fact, they all need love. Spread a little wrist time around.

Chris, it's hard to explain the feeling of a 666 unless you have had on your wrist - IMO it is a perfect mix of mass, beauty and vintage
