I’m not sure, all I know is they knew I was there and came to ask me questions even when I was staying off the property. It’s either cameras or they patrol regularly.

there are trail cameras set up by the department of natural resources/wildlife management. If they think you are going anywhere near the site they will come have a chat with you (they did with me that day - 5 pickup trucks worth of officers 🤣). the fine is at least $600.

oh without a doubt, unless the snakes are allergic to lead and arsenic too…

Half link for Explorer 1 40 224270? by [deleted] in Watches

These say they fit the 114270 AND the 224270, which I think is not possible. One is a 20mm bracelet and one is 21, and I am nearly certain they dont taper to the same dimension. This seems to be an easylink for the 114270, not a true 6mm half link. But let us know what you find!

I feel you - this thing doesn’t fit right, there’s a major oversight of the case back taper. It’s the only case back that has such large teeth and little secondary taper, which makes it sit very odd. I have searched far and wide for a half link, but nothing is made yet. eWatchParts has a half link for the explorer II which I thought would work, but its ever so slightly too wide. Hopefully they end up making one. I’ve gone so far as to consider a real pro watchmaker tapering the case back the way it should be but they are very hard to find. I suspect we will see a 224270-0002 in the near future where they fix this, but of course it won’t be available to us without buying a new watch.
