New Alpinist in the wild

Purchased the Alpinist (SPB503) this week. I didn’t want an overly large watch that would impede with me being on the bike on prolonged rides. With the gloves on and my leather jacket, I can ride without noticing the watch. It’s a perfect size for me, they removed two links for my slim 17cm wrist and did one micro adjustment. On the 3rd day of wearing it I ran a 24hr timing accuracy check and it checked in at -3 seconds, pretty good for what is considered a weak point in this Seiko line. I’ll continue to check for accuracy over the next couple of weeks as the lubricants set in and the watch settles into a rhythm. I’m very satisfied with my first Seiko.

ZWO Stores in Ontario, Canada

I’m new to Astro photography and will be purchasing my first rig, a Seestar S50 Pro smart telescope. I’m in Southern Ontario, Canada and have found 2 retailers dealing with ZWO products, Ontario Telescope & Accesories and Telescopes Canada. As I’m new to the hobby, I have no reference point on what else there might be in my area. If there are any established members of this community in my area, I’d love to hear what you think of these retailers and any others I may not be aware of.
