Good one, Johan! Cold front moved through last night here. No rain/snow, just colder. Casio TriGraph for me. Some of us from work bought these in '90 when we took SCUBA lessons and wore them when we went diving.  |

To the West End Watch Co I go!  I don't know how many remember when West End reintroduced themselves in zombie-brand fashion in 2009-2010. I have no idea what the brand lineage is after the dark times of Swiss watches. But in 2010 the models were all modern interpretations of their older designs. Modern as in all-stainless, sapphire crystals, ETA 28xx movements, solid machined link bracelets. But they were still the modest classic proportions, with my Silk Road I version being 38mm. That was when 46mm+ was all that most watch makers where interested in making. West End totally flew under the radar.   |

Didn't feel like stepping out in the snow to take another weather appropriate (snow) shot, so this one from warmer temps will have to do. Having lots of fun with these Barton straps!  |

I can see your house from here!!!  How much of the Arctic Dandruff did you get? Nice to see that combination without the encumbrance of the snow, Russ |
