Great start to the day, Dan. Hey Jeff, -24C is still bloody cold and like yourself, I'm sportin' a watch that seems at odds with our -33C weather too The hands and markers are fantastic. How's the lume? We're still just a few degrees below freezing, but it's dropping.

Nice Seiko Chrono Dan, went to the gym and since wearing my red Adidas shirt so this felt appropriate...
I like this angle that shows the awesome knurled bezel!

Cool Seiko alarm, Daniel. Today's duo are Dan Henry and a Fossil. The Fossil is a sub- $3 goodwill find. Has a Ronda movement and the crown is located underneath. Great picture of the Dan Henry, with the sunlight getting all bent by the crystal. And I can't believe you picked up that Fossil for less than a cup of coffee! It's awesome! Number 3.

Great looking watch, Daniel! You know I love the black with red. Alpina Startimer GMT for me today. Looks great, Dan! The GMT disc is different. Thanks, Marcel! The original watch it was based on was an alarm, so the disc was the alarm time. It's kind of cool how they made it a GMT and kept the look of the old one.

This morning and while clearing snow today I was wearing my Bertucci. After de-stinkerating in the shower, I changed to my Citizen Eco-Drive chrono. And if you peek into the "General" forum, you can see what cleaning up snow was like today. Bertucci made the all-glowing watch perfect. The pure black hands and markers look great in the light and in the dark. Do you have a layer of crusty ice under the snow?

There are some patches of ice under the snow left from the 3 prior snow events in the past 8 days.

We were always below the rain/snow line.

Thanks, Dan- it's great to get those pics. My LÜM-TEC behaves the same way. I really like the Fossil since it's a cheap way to get something akin to the Bathys bomb timer.

Well that explains it! Kudos to Alpina for not just recycling an old idea. Gives it some originality.
