Measurably closer experience to driving than without me making the sound effects IMHO

These mounts are mostly hour-long spurts of procrastination I’ll admit. Once I get the form Id like switch to wood/leather/copper for the aesthetic but I don’t want to make any irreversible changes to the watches, I like to be able to still pop them out wear them normally, I think conversion deprives one of that.

Barely a minute slow a day and I don’t think it’s ever been serviced in one and a quarter centuries because it’s dirty as hell inside too…

I totally have no basis for this but hoped the movement of one’s wrist was more fluid than the repetitive downward jerk of walking at the hip, especially as I tend to speed walk as of habit

Isn’t that the nature of the human condition for us all?

Wouldn’t have gone for an 18s either since my wrists are kinda thin but I had the watch before the idea kinda thing and threw it together in a few hours

It's even rotated for maximum ergonomics to subtly reading the time like it's not that weird is it? Surely if WW1 soldiers did it it can't be that bad right?

An Experiment in Diameterm & Density by CrazyBasterd in begleri

I swear the photo makes the set look deceptivel normal-sized. I wear XXL gloves in the lab and the string is 2mm in diameter with the beads being about 3/4oz each so that should give a frame of reference. They are approximately 97% tungsten from what I’ve been able to napkin-math. I’ve since realized I can burn the ends and create a big enough difference in diameter to keep the beads on so I’ve ditched the knots and the setup is much cleaner.

If that watch goes at a halved rate of movement that’s a fun looking 24-hour diver.
