That sure is a beautiful combo. His only complaint will be that they don't use wool to knit these Nato straps....

Although I really love the pic from the OP, I have to agree.

I'd pair it with the maroon Zulu...

It actually looks pretty good. Or is it the fact that Jocke can make anything look good?

Yes, we are well settled in. Took just over 3 hours....but I believe in one thing: All or nothing!!

Once I start up something, I love to see it through all the way....100%. No half way measures for me.

In any event, I had to completely vacate that other unit which was only rented. Another family is moving in there today.

If you had a Daytona, you could have timed how long it took you for each move....

I guess it wouldn't surprise you all if I told you I WASN'T wearing any watch whilst carrying out all the moves.

Couldn't afford no scratches on the clasp!!
