The Quiet Man |
I have a Speedmaster just like that one. My favorite watch by far and yes, I do wear it on duty fairly often. Best part is one day recently I was called to a scene and while we were waiting for the investigators to investigate another officer walks up to me and goes "is that a Moonwatch?" He holds up his wrist and is also wearing a Speedmaster. What are the odds of two cops on the same scene both with exquisite taste in watches and the madness to wear them on duty? We had a wonderful conversation about watches that couldn't have interested most of the folks around us less. The Speedy is a beautiful watch, but it was built to be a tool and meant to be worn. That said, I will admit I keep a somewhat more expendable watch in my desk safe in my office for when I know I might be going somewhere...dynamic. | |||

I found out about a year ago that one of my Lt's is into watches. Seamaster, Grand Seiko, A few Seiko turtles, Tudor Black Bay Rolex GMT, a few other nice pieces... He's the one I turned on to the Helms. We can sit in the office and talk about watches for a long time... A few day's ago, I have on the Helm with the Ti bracelet, he's about > < this close to getting another Seamaster (Pro-Diver 300, black ceramic & sedna) we're in the office geeking out about watches; this movement, these type of hands, this type of lume, etc, etc, Our Captain walks in- "Hey, about the shooting the other night..." (gang-banger vs gang-banger) We both look at him in disgust, and point at the computer. We have on someone's YouTube channel about watches. "Yeah, whatever Capt. Watches!" and we're both pointing at the computer. Our Captain: "Hey, I'm serious! This is important!" Lt: "Look Boss, we can't UN-SHOOT the bad guy, but we can get another watch!" The Skipper is just standing there with this quizzical "WTF just happened" look on his face and a day old case report in his hand. Thankfully we've all known each other for around 30 years. ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

LOL!!! Nice to see you guys have your priorities straight and someplace to go when you finally get to retirement!!! But seriously! What's your usual EDC for an on-duty watch? Anything in particular or just a few that are rotated? "I'm not fluent in the language of violence, but I know enough to get around in places where it's spoken." | |||

Nice options! I bought a Marathon 46mm GSAR "Jumbo" (white dial) and found that even with my hefty wrist, it was just too big. I'm thinking maybe the smaller 41mm might be a good choice for an end of probation present for my LEO grandson.

I have the CSAR and tossed the SS bracelet on it. Yeah, you know you’re wearing a watch! The 41mm’s are about the perfect size, and as you know, those Marathons are tough, durable watches! ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

I mentioned to my wife of 43 years that I was tired of my 2015 Seamaster Diver 300M and wanted to upgrade to a current model: She said I should talk to her divorce attorney first. ________________________________________________________ The trouble with trouble is; it always starts out as fun. | |||

Has anyone had to send a watch back to Jomashop for warranty work? If so what was your experience? I'm asking because the Marathon I bought from Long Island Watch came in not working and had to send it back. They were quick to ship another. Long Island Watch was great to deal with, but I'm a little gun-shy with my next purchase. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

Rick, that’s one damn fine Rolex. I really like the color combo, and it just looks great. Your wife’s is nice too, but I definitely prefer yours. The “lol” thread | |||
