The Watch Fanatic Thread
There was talk earlier in this thread about James Bond's watches and his switch from Rolex to Omega. I found this article recently going thu each one. I can't vouch for it's level of accuracy, but it does have a picture of Halle Berry. https://www.watchtime.com/featured/watches-james-bond/

Is anyone playing ancestor roulette for Christmas?
Kind of not an issue/possibility out in this part of the country .... /WV I think that is called the Jerry Springer Show. PS: I wonder if anyone has ever been on both.

Dear Texas, we need to have a conversation about Louie Gohmert

I don't believe it is allowed within the rules anywhere to put Willie on the list ever. PS: Same goes for Earl. There are just some things you don't do.- 2019 Surly Death Pool
Strong call on Pete Davidson....I've always felt though on these that you must include a pro wrestler, a rapper, and one member of the '85 Bears. William "the refrigerator" Perry Ric Flair Slim Thug Bob Dole Bob Dylan Berry Gordy Kris Kristofferson Jack Nicholson Jack Osbourne Liza Minnelli- The Watch Fanatic Thread
Nice. Having one just a little different is sweet. I like your blue face for a change up too. I was looking at one, and also at Nomos' Ahoi Atlantik (more of my German fetish I guess) if I get another wild hair might go in that direction.- Thank You Surly Admins
Hmmft... We West Virginians are known worldwide as a cultured and refined people.- The Watch Fanatic Thread
My 104 goes both ways (just like your mom). The 6099 inset/interior bezel is really just another time zone setting and is set up on hour clicks and controlled by that stem on the left.. It also goes both ways (just like your mom).- The Watch Fanatic Thread
They have both German and English. When setting it, it will stay on the one you want skipping the other language. I keep mine on English. Might change it someday when I feel like marching into Poland. Regarding the bezel of the 104 & 103, it is what is called a countdown bezel. Slide it to when you are supposed to be there and it will tell you how many minutes left. Note: this doesn't work for wives. Still add 15 minutes to your planning.- In the hospital, I had a stroke.
Heck, it took two pages to get to some hot nurse pics (links, but close enough and hot enough). We will see what the morning shift brings in.- Bill Fralic died
Yea, he was pretty darn good too at Pitt/Skins, but I just can't throw him in with the props I give Hugh Green or Fralic or the others on my list above. Even doing that for the other Panthers hurts a bit somewhere inside. And he may not have had the pro career of the others, but Hugh Green was the best of them all imho.- In the hospital, I had a stroke.
I can't fap to that.- Things not going well for the Oregon marijuana industry
I believe that's called a party.- Bill Fralic died
I just saw/read where Bill Fralic died. For those of y'all too young to remember, he was an OL for Pitt and then a great career in the NFL. He was only 56, and I don't believe it had anything to do with steroids or PEDs or CTE. I just read cancer so ugh for him and his family. He was an incredible football player and at Pitt when I was at WVU and just a beast to watch and go up against for our guys. PS: Talking about Pitt football, us old folks who like to hate on them struggle with the admiration for some of the talent that went thru there like: Dorsett, to Marino, to Fralic to Hugh Green to Larry Fitzgerald.- In the hospital, I had a stroke.
The good thing is that you can ask for a Valium and get it if the Cowboy/Colts game gets too bad.- In the hospital, I had a stroke.
God bless and I hope for a full recovery. They are doing great work these days when caught early. Now, let's see pics of hot nurses.- The Watch Fanatic Thread
Yea, the Frankfurt series comes with both a strap and a bracelet and I'll probably keep the bracelet oni it I think Sinn's Fine Link is much more attractive than their H link. I guess it depends upon the watch. i was thinking about going in another direction with either a copper or blue face model , but couldn't stop drooling on this series and think it is a good complement to my 104.......of course unless I add a MVMT .....lol.- The Downfall of Craig James
He didn't kill the hookers, just their Padres near the end of his career.- Should we have a page for surly owned and operated businesses?
What if I owned a drive thru Daiquiri or Margarita shop? Allowed or probably not?- The Watch Fanatic Thread
I had not realized this thread was here or at the other site until recently. I'm not a huge watch freak, but as a daily watch I wear a Sinn 104. It is to me just a great watch both mechanically and in style. I'm German and appreciate the German made (even with Sinn's Swiss movement in it). I had mentioned to another poster that I was getting the itch for a more formal watch and just recently I pulled the trigger on a new Sinn 6099 which is one of the Frankfurt models. I like how the 41 mm sits on my wrist and I like with most Sinns that the dial isn't too cluttered so that i can readily see the time. Below is my new piece, and then a picture of it playing with my 104. I told my kids it was their Christmas present to me. I enjoy looking at y'alls pictures. Hopefully some of you like and wear Sinns I much as I do. PS: Here is better picture of the 6099 I had found online without the glare from my phone camera for those looking at it. Really a pretty piece.- Texas District Court Strikes Down the Entire Affordable Care Act
One would think that maybe this will be the impetus to shit or get off the pot and we can decide whether or not to have Universal Single Payer health coverage and just pay for it thru taxation.- Who's going to be the first one banned from Surly?
- Mike Williams is leaving the team
Usually that doesn't happen to a thread until you show up.- Brett Kavanaugh Confirmation Thread
I tend to believe sadly that much talk/gnashing of teeth/hyperbole from Washington is simply theatre on issues like abortion or immigration. I also believe that you are correct on the serious nature of overreach by law enforcement into our lives, and as well would add in debt/pensions/SS (fiscal not monetary policy) as the big issues that should get the discussion over there inside the beltway. - 2019 Surly Death Pool
