JLC reverso today.
Inspired by @DukeNDuke's post, I picked up a tan rally strap from Crown & Buckle and swapped out the metal band on my Seiko 5. I really how the blue face and tan strap look together.
Nice looking band!! I've got mine on today.
Thank you! And thanks again for the inspiration.
Mathew & Son Irukandji for the rest of this week.
Raymond Weil Sport. Awesome ETA movement. most useful watch I own.
The orange face is beautiful.
Every day the knife changes but the watch remains the same.
What a beautiful pairing!

Thank you Tim, I do find commonality with Rolex and Chris Reeve Knives.
Nice, I was just looking at my brother's (unfortunately broken) Explorer I on Monday.
Nice! I was wearing my black version Explorer II today and meant to get a picture, but forgot! Pah!
@prec1se I had been home and not wearing a watch either, but started back up working in the office 50% of my normal time, so back to watches I go. My first day was Thurs, and I have to say, strapping on the Tag that day, and the Rolex Explorer II on Friday did make it feel like things were getting back to normal again. false sense, perhaps, but its funny what wearing a watch can do for the soul! 
Nah, it's not a "real" one. It is a real Casio DW5600-BB dressed up with a mod kit from AliExpress.
Covid watch......
St Moritz is kind of interesting. Small company based in Vancouver BC where they source the ebauche, escapement and other components (mostly Japanese movements if I understand correctly) and assemble the final watches in Canada and the US. Can't recall when they changed their watches to be sold as the Momentum brand.
My watch was purchased in 2000 and seem to recall paying around $200CAD and its been worth every penny. I've worn it dirt biking, camping, skiing, diving, assorted outdoor bumbleforkery and generally abused the poop out of it. Its held up very well and continues to keep excellent time.

I typically like rather heavy tool watches but this one is interesting. The case is made from sintered tungsten carbide and gold with a sapphire crystal. The design is reminiscent of the classic Piaget Polo.
Interesting. Is that from the 70's or some other decade.
Looks like the hands are above the crystal. That is an nice effect.
