I suspect a redial, here, but it’s a fun watch, and the movement and case are correct, hand shapes look right to me. Picked up a couple years ago.

Eight days in with upper immediates, and I would KILL to eat something with some crunch, ugh. I’m trying to think of things that crunch but are not hard at all. I’m sick of soft food, but I managed to find some noodle bowl frozen meals that have been a great step toward “food” food, and i have had sushi twice now, eaten with care.

i am exhausted by the cognitive load of something in my mouth all the time, it’s so hard to focus. I know it will take time. Man, I am not enjoying this lol.

Newer refs of the Combat Sub 42 have had some stylistic updates that make it no longer just a cheap Submariner clone. They get a more contemporary handset, applied wedge indices, crosshair dial, nice sharply-printed chapter ring, and the they no longer come with the mediocre hollow-ended bracelet and just come on a NATO strap, bracelet available separately I suspect. The case is updated, as well, but still retains the 10.5mm for 20BAR WR the line has been known for since forever. Sellita SW200 movement. All for $515 US. Cheaper than many microbrands using Japanese movements. If you’ve rejected Giycine in the past, might be worth a look. I like it on leather, here, if I’m honest. The design is very flexible and can read as a tool or sport watch, easily. My first diver a few years ago was a Glycine Combat Sub and here I am coming back around.

Such a great watch, wears well and looks sharp!

The Waterbury Chronograph 41mm is a heck of a watch, I keep calling it the Baby Zenith because it looks Zenithy with the multicolored subregisters. I don’t love the bracelet and tried a few alternatives until i found this inexpensive straight end one on AliX. I really love this look. This is one of the best current Timex models.
