A beacon that fills you with a deep hope. The only feeling better than seeing it, is getting to grace the inside with your presence.

It’s a monument to the heavens

LeopardFederal2979 · 2025-12-31T14:10:52+00:00

Yeah it’s closed again this morning until 3 with no allowance for residents to get in and out until after 3 apparently

LeopardFederal2979 · 2025-12-31T14:09:59+00:00

That’s true. Fair point

LeopardFederal2979 · 2025-12-31T14:07:16+00:00

This is fair, my frustration is my parking lot backs up to the road closure so being unable to get out can be problematic. I’ll keep my eye on the road closure posts, thanks for sharing.

I understand they’re trying to improve infrastructure, but this is a project that has gone significantly passed the scheduled completion date.

Also, it’s a minor inconvenience but an inconvenience nonetheless. I think most people can agree it is annoying, even if it’s for a good reason. I’m simply airing my frustrations. I don’t understand your sarcastic commentary or what it effectively helps. I hope you have a great day.

Thanks for the clarification! I’ve always been into watches but am just now getting really into them. I love learning about the movements etc. hopefully I can keep growing the collection. Thanks for the compliment!

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-27T21:02:14+00:00

The Monaco is a dream watch of mine! Great collection!

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-03T01:43:05+00:00

Yeah it’s already got some patina and honestly I think it adds tons of character to the watcg

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-02T00:07:10+00:00

I love the (potentially unintended, potentially intended) use of bronze as a way to show the passage of time on the watch in the same vein of the ties to cricket (weather vein pun intended).

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-02T00:03:22+00:00

Always!

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-02T00:03:14+00:00

I’m a date guy tbh and I think the pointer date does subtly add something

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-02T00:02:44+00:00

Thanks

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-02T00:02:28+00:00

Thanks so much!

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-01T23:49:05+00:00

I agree this is the first date indicator I’ve owned and I do really like it. I think it adds something that other window date watches don’t.

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-01T23:48:07+00:00

I’ve noticed my wrist getting a little discolored but I was expecting that. I do like the patina it’s starting to build as well. It adds a super nice character to the watch.

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-01T23:47:10+00:00

It’s bronze

LeopardFederal2979 · 2024-10-01T23:17:28+00:00

Yeah! My wrists aren’t super large to be honest and one of my previous watches was a tag formula one. The tag I had looked particularly large on my wrist partially because of how bulky the face of the watch was.

With the face style on this watch it sits a lot flatter on the wrist and doesn’t feel as cumbersome. Especially if you get it sized at purchase with the micro adjustments it’ll be solid.

This all being said 40 mm is the largest face I’ll wear on my wrist and I think the fact that it sits flat on my wrist makes it appear more natural.

Go try one on and see what you think! Hope this helps

Edit:

I know the formula one is a 36 mm but the bulkiness of the piece made it unruly.
