@GoldenWatchRetriever I gave you a shout out in the article that went up today around this watch:

@GoldenWatchRetriever Wow huge thanks for sharing your perspective on this! I deeply appreciate your thoughts here. The EZM1 is one of my all-time favorite watches, and its execution stands in such stark contrast to something like the TR, as you've pointed out.

Lots to digest here, but this is very helpful.

Thanks again for the insights (and your service!)

This is awesome feedback, I appreciate all the responses!

@solidyetti I've known Bill for well over a decade - but this is my first critical look at a Tornek Rayville in earnest, and I was curious about the community's take on this type of tool watch to balance out my own for a story I'm working on.

Love the Lorier btw!

Ha I appreciate this sentiment. Although it is my livelihood to overthink such things, I suppose it's good to take a step back at times.

This is a 'not issued' watch that's being presented in the guise of an 'issued' watch. This is the crux of my issue in placing this watch into a proper context.
