Still pretty good though. :thumbup:

I wonder why it jumped about? Did you leave it in the same position every night?

How did you get the watch to stay so still?

Whisper it, but I think it's resting on the crown (don't tell Kip). It's an old picture TBH and I can't remember taking it. I can see it's been cropped though. :)

I won't tell, I got a right shellacking last time I did that.
Started the day with this

And finishing with something else Germanic.

you know, i think it was resting on the back the first few nights. and last night i wore it to bed. i almost always wear my watches to bed, an old habit. but a couple of them (the AT and the C60, in particular) have a "hum" that i can hear through my pillow sometimes before i fall asleep and i take them off. but wearing it to bed may be part of the difference.

My latest affordable Seiko Dive watch. It is a 7002 modified with a new Scubapro dial and PloProf type hands on a wjean mesh bracelet. The lume is new and bright but vintage beige in colour so it looks aged. It was a lot cheaper than a real Omega baby PloProf! :)

Seeing all the Balls over the last few days has encouraged me to give mine an airing.
