Simple, classy, bulletproof, and the last watch I'll ever need.
Oh, yeah, it's water-resistant to 2000m. That way when they pull my drowned ass up from the bottom of the ocean at least the watch will still be usable.
The LS 9000, however.... :D
i had a fossil blue but it broke after i ate shit into a (empty) fireplace while doing a keg stand. haven't replaced it.
well bill, youre in luck!
i found what sounds like the same model fossil at the bottom of the ocean while surfing last summer.
it is missing a pin that holds the band to the face, but thats easily fixable right?
i would get it done, but I hate watches. if we ever meet up, its yours.
TwoPlanker is correct, Tippster's IWC is a fine timepiece.
I have too many watches, my newest and thus current favorites, are a Festina and a Breitling.
I bought a Ciclosport HAC4 this fall; it works for cycling and skiing. This thing does everything but buy your lunch.

It doesn't come with an engineer to operate it, but it should. :rolleyes:
You own a Breitling, and I own a ten-year-old Nissan with a quarter-million miles.
I'm sure that besides living here at TGR, there are at least some common elements to our respective realities.
Field and Stream F23EL.
The best watch I ever had was a Gitano. Cheap as hell but I accidentally washed it several times, left it in a cold water trout stream for weekend (band broke while trout fishing on Friday and found it on Sunday) and it still worked. The watch wasn't supposed to be water resistent let alone water proof, but the worst thing that ever happened to it was the glass would fog up for a day or two. It finally broke when accidentally left it in a dryer.
Should we trade cars? I've got an '89 Camry All-Trac with a buck-fifty on the odometer.Quote:

And
We both love to play in the snow. If that's not a common bond, I don't know what is.
Ski well my brother.

does the heart monitor work well?
The whole thing works great. Honestly, the biggest - and only - problem is learning how to use your new toy. On the bike it's a bit of problem keeping your eyes on the road - what with all the information available.
It's pretty interesting to download the data and compare rides or days on the slopes. I am very curious to know how accurate the (skiing) speed functions are. I was getting with it one day and it said my top speed was 62 mph. Hmmm
I didn't buy the Postal Service version . . . little too much for my tastes.
