Looking good, John. Wearing my Nethuns Lava II here today. Not familiar with the brand, but it looks very cool! |

I was up almost 2 hours before dawn in order to try to take photos of Mars and Venus, with a blind attempt at Uranus. Where I could set up with a view of Polaris for proper mount alignment, Mars was visible in a crotch of tree branches. By the time I was aligned and ready to go, Mars was in the branches. Did a series on Venus, but unsure if the results are good enough. Tried to move to Uranus and started taking photos blind and hoping it was in frame. I'm not sure if I can pick out the planet among the stars in the photos. I'm comparing the constellations to Stellarium, but not getting a good fix on Uranus. Mars never emerged from the leaves before morning twilight.   Now after napping a bit, I'm doing laundry and it's cool enough today for a leather strap. Orient Bambino is called-up today. That is a lot of dedication  That Bambino looks terrific! |

45mm Android Hercules Tungsten Sapphire with SII NH35 Nope, no mistake. It's Tungsten, not Titanium, at the other end of the mass spectrum with a mass density nearly identical to Gold (it's been used to make fake Gold bullion). Case and bracelet are mirror finished Tungsten. I believe the clasp and crown are stainless. Bought it in 2014 when Wing was just starting to clear his closets out for the brand name change. Definitely heavy for its size.   How cool to have a big tungsten watch!Get another one for your other wrist, and you can build up your arms, and be ready for a sword battle, too. I really like the wide, angled chapter ring.  I've switch honeymoons for today. I just got this nice, heavy nylon 2-piece and it works great on the Islander. That does look great, Dan! Very nice |
