I wore my VSF Explorer on vacation with my friends, and now they all want reps
This thing is great. I regulated it to about +5 sec/day, and I can wear it hiking without worrying about scratches.

I wish I could say I was surprised to see an SS insignia proudly displayed in NC. But I'm still a little shocked.

Praesidus A-5 UDT may be my new favorite watch
I picked this thing up secondhand at the Gotham Watch Fair on Friday, and it's just so cool. Love the dial, the double domed crystal, the hands, and the canteen crown.
I don't care for the company's reliance on military motifs for its branding, but the history behind the UDT watches is undeniably cool, and I got a nice deal on this piece. Retails for $650, I paid $250.
I think this is an earlier version than what is sold now. As such, it has the Soprod P024 movement instead of the Miyota 9039. It's been within about 2 seconds accuracy since I first set it before the weekend.

Seeking adaptive solutions for computer use, for someone with dysarthria and no motor coordination.
My good friend had a brain stem stroke 4.5 years ago at age 34 that has left him dependent on others for all daily tasks. He made slow but steady progress for several years, and he was blogging which gave him hope and a sense of purpose. I edited his blog, which gave us a nice connection. He could type on a tablet, albeit very slowly.
Then he had a series of TIAs that erased all his progress. He doesn't have the motor coordination to type, his vision is very poor, and his speech is very difficult to understand, even to someone who knows him and talks to him a lot.
Without his ability to communicate online, he has lost hope, and he has lost his main connection to the world. He doesn't want to live anymore, but I think if he could write again, he may regain some hope.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
