Solid collection indeed! 
Marlin + Expedition: Two favorites. The Expedition is a recent acquisition and is still impressing me with all the features it has. Highly recommended. (Image failed to load!)(Image failed to load!)

commented on Lorier Safari…is it any good? ·

(Image failed to load!)I picked one up as an end-of-the-year / holiday gift to myself and it's been getting quite a bit of wrist time since it arrived. I have rather small wrists (6 1/4 inch), and most of my watch straps are 18mm, so the overall the size has been nothing short of perfect for me. I'd been meaning to pick up something from Lorier for a while, ever since seeing them at a watch event in NY, and this was almost too good to be true. Urban Gentry videos definitely played a role in my deeper dive into watches, and I order straps from Wrist Candy Watch Club (who made the included perlon) all the time, so it was a fun overall combo. I can definitely see and understand where it may not be some folks' cup of tea, but I personally don't see this one leaving my wrist much anytime soon. Looks great on your wrist as well! 🙂

Yep :) I originally put it on out of curiosity, but I’ve enjoyed it so much I still haven’t taken it off 🙂
