New to me CN111E
Probably the perfect chronograph for me at work, central chrono seconds and minutes and a 12hr subdial, plus a 60min diver bezel.
I need to time jobs at work (to make sure I'm not working to quickly) , so I can time say a 4hr job. Then in that job i need to time individual tasks, so I can then turn the diver bezel to line up with the chrono minutes hand😁
Its quartz so I don't have to worry about setting the time every Monday morning, even has a jumping hour hand!
Think my gshocks will get very little wear now!
Air drying the BB pro
After taking it in the sea (and then shower) to at least 2% of it's depth rating
Visiting Amiens, Vernon and saint aubin sur mer
Leaving tomorrow, three days or so in each. We normally travel Europe in a camper, it's off the road this year so we travelling in a old VW Golf (so can't drive in emission zones).
Any recommendations in or around these areas would be greatly appreciated.
If you had to boil your collection down to one
Like you could only keep one watch, what would it be?
Not your fanciest watch, but the one that covers all bases. Best at nothing, but solid and dependable in each role (work/play/holiday/ect).
Mine would be be my black bay 36 smiley, just slightly ahead of my G-Shock full metal square on the fact it fits under a shirt cuff.
Don't wear them as much these day
Have a couple Tudors, a Tag ect. That take up my wrist time.
But when I do put it on, it always tells me the correct time and I sorta fall back in love with then
Black bay Pro looks better on a strap
Took a chance on import duty and bought a Julien Faure strap from France (into the UK) and it arrived with no extra charges!
Which is great because it's not a cheap strap (£106). If you don't know it's the company that make the straps for Tudor, they don't sell the Tudor colours , but they have plenty to choose from.
I really do think the Pro looks better on a strap.

X-ray of ankle after rolling my ankle
A&E not too sure if something is going on with the circled bit so ive been referred to the fracture clinic for them to look at images . Bonus 3rd pic of what the nurse said is an extra bone on my heel.
Also waiting on an appointment for scan for ligament damage, Achilles hurts like a bugger!
New watch day!
Received delivery of this new (to me) pro today😁
Hardly looks worn and still has a couple years warranty!
Why did I not find these sooner!
Wild 3+
SO comfy, 15 miles on Sunday (walk)normally get blisters and painful toes, not a single issue!
and 5k today running a woodland trail. Feet aren't numb and my knees don't hurt, amazing.
It's made me order some lone peak 9's for the walking/hiking duties
(And yes, the dog does the 5k too😃)
New rally strap Targa Floria
New strap fitted today after the original failed after 20 years. Went for the rally style against plain leather, think it really suits it
Doesn't get that much wrist time, but always enjoy it when it's on
