^^^^ Sorry to disappoint you Steve.

However, when we left around 5:00pm, they had put the lights on within the bar.

I’ve tried a dozen straps that are OK but just not good enough, and I have this one strap which is perfect. No need for more than this strap, that bracelet.

Keeping my 20 y/o Jeep alive does not require the use of any horological instruments... Even the Omvicta is coming off the wrist for upside down wrenching in tight quarters!

That’s a great intention. I like this idea :D
This is easier than I thought. :)

So far so good, although I have dabbled with another simple three hander for a bit of variety.

I don’t even notice that this one is on my wrist, as it fits so well.

Mirrors on the ceiling yes, but I see no pink champagne on ice. :)

I had been thinking along similar lines. You beat me to it.

Love this thing and with the ultra you really do get premium watch materials and finishing. Titanium, ceramic and sapphire.
