I know it's heresy to remove a Tropic Strap from a Chronosport, but this morning I swapped my Tropic Strap and my Maen-brand NATO strap. I like the results here. Since I'll never take my Chronosport in the pool, I'll leave things this way until I actually buy a second Tropic Strap. https://i.ibb.co/...

I think this one looks nice on the NATO strap, and this NATO strap fits me very well. I just think I wouldn't like getting the strap wet, because it wouldn't be easy to dry. Rubber straps and stainless steel bracelets seem to me to be the winners for diving.

It's only 10ATM, but that's fine for the pool.

I have this Mathey-Tissot, which I like, but I don't like the Jubilee bracelet it came on, so I moved it to this NATO strap.

I don't want to take this strap swimming, and was thinking maybe this watch should be on a Tropic strap.

What do y'all think?

So cool that your book is signed! Wish mine was.

I got a new watch yesterday. It's not a Rolex Pepsi GMT, but I did the best I could... The GMT hand is set to Honolulu time. :magnum: I mostly got this to track my exercise and to be able to go on walks without taking a phone -- I'll just take the Apple Watch and AirPods now. I will still prefer my ...

Question for you horological sleuths: Did TC also wear a Chronosport Sea Quartz 30 in some episodes? Someone commented on the Momentum Watch site: "Did you know that Theodore Calvin (TC) also wore the same watch? Season 12, Episode 12 "Thicker Than Blood." About 4:50 in...while he's checking anothe...

I was checking out the Tudor website, and found that Tudor now has a Pan Am style GMT watch ... which has now been added to my wishlist. I had been wanting a Tudor Pepsi GMT, and now I can have a Pan Am style version of that!

None of the above. The hottest women to appear on the show are as follows: 5) Patrice Martinez (Linda Lee Ellison) S7 E16, S8 E13 4) Lee Purcell (Goldie) S6 E3 3) Kim Bevers (Little Allison) S5 E19 2) Sharon Karns (Shawn Hoskins) S1 E8 1) Elizabeth Lindsey (Kiki) S1 E10 I'll have to go look up thos...

I just upgraded my new Momentum Sea Quartz 30 to a Tropic Strap®. Momentum's version of the tropic strap isn't bad at all. I just wasn't a fan of the quick-change spring bars. But the Tropic Strap® is definitely higher quality. Compared side by side, you can see it in the little details down to the...

Speaking of Tudor -- apparently they now have a Pan Am version!

Man, that's going on my wishlist!

I owned a Rolex 16710 GMT Master II Pepsi. One version newer than Magnum's GMT Pepsi but extremely similar. I felt like I wasn't wearing it enough compared to its value so I sold it in 2021 (at a nice profit). Now I'm watching the entire series of MPI and seeing Magnum's GMT Pepsi and not having on...

I would absolutely watch the commercials if they were from the 80's. In fact, I sometimes do just that on YouTube. :) Ha, I thought I was the only one who did this. 80s commercials were a special kind of thing. lol Anyway, thanks for the question & answer. I wouldn't have known what it was. Also, I...

Definitely! I have an original Chronosport, but it is not on a vintage Tropic Strap. It's on a 1.5-year-old Tropic strap.

As for calling 911 when you're having a heart attack that's an entirely different scenario. I'm not talking about life threatening situations here. Just people going to the doctors for every little thing. I know people like that. And then I hear "Oh why did I go? Why did I take his advice? I was be...
