Aww man, so happy for you - that is such a beautiful watch. The Gods and Goddesses of High Horology are well pleased!

My grail of grails is the IWC Portugieser Chronograph. It takes my breath away and I love the history behind it.

AND: You are so freaking ready for St. Patrick’s Day.

commented on Just banged my watch for the first time.. ·

Well, I clean windows for a living so my watch gets banged several times a day against ladder rails, window frames and so on. I wanted a watch that would take that kind of abuse, wouldn’t have me thinking about how much I spent on it all the time and still give me the goochie goos when I check the time. My answer was the Damasko. Largely because my aesthetic is soothed by teutonic design language and the dsub hits that mark so well. It has yet so suffer a scratch or ding. I flat out love the watch!

Apart from that I wear what the mood dictates on any given day. Some days I wear the dsub. Even when I am not working.
