A couple of months ago, a few friends and I were surfing at the cape and I handed one of them my watch because I was afraid the bracelet would come off. Unfortunately, this friend also forgot that he had the watch on him and lost it while he was surfing himself. It was an old Seiko SKX175, so I did not particularly care - but this just arrived in mail for Christmas from the friend. You lose some, and you win some.

Did what I said I was going to do a few days ago: sold the Green Ceramic and bought the black ceramic today. Gonna get rid of the Breitling for Bentley and just keep this one and the plain Oyster perpetual. I have to say, the shiny Ceramic bezel and large maxi dial are fantastic. I haven't had this much instant wrist satisfaction in a long time.
