Re: Buying a Rolex or Chronosport

I am going to be a naysayer when it comes to the aluminum bezel. :magnum: Here's a current closeup of my Chronosport and Steinhart. Chronosport has no band/straps because I am moving the Tropic strap back to it, but right now I'm having trouble getting the pins out to make the swap. My Steinhart is ...

Re: Momentum Sea Quartz 30

Many thanks for sharing! In the end I opted for the Steinhart, but... then couldn't resist the Momentum offer either (including the star orchid shirt, size small!). :) Having grown tired of my smartwatch, I figured I could use two new analog watches. Am eagerly anticipating both now! The Steinhart ...

Re: Momentum Sea Quartz 30

Well, I did it. Pre-ordered and got a red shirt. This will be fun!

Black tropic strap of course. :magnum: :magnum: :magnum:

Re: Are Magnum fans also Jimmy Buffett fans?

I've never been a fan of Jimmy Buffet, and don't listen to his music while I'm on my own, but I don't mind his music when I'm out with friends.

Re: Momentum Sea Quartz 30

I'm thinking about joining the Momentum crowd. The shirt deal is a nice touch, and I think it's enough to get me to pull the trigger on this. That, and my wife is telling me to do it - lol :magnum: I have a Chronosport SQ30, but because of its age I will not take it in a pool. I take my Steinhart (a...

I'm sure we knew the tennis courts were gone, but I had forgotten that, and it was sad to see.

Re: Limbo (7.22)

Unpopular opinion time. I don't know how to rank this one: It is an excellent episode, but I truly dislike it. I dislike it because in my mind it didn't have the correct ending, and I would have hated CBS if this had been left as the series finale. Now, there are parts of it that I like -- the Dick...

Re: My new 1980s obsession

My sons & I reworked my mancave setup this weekend. Gone are the PlayStation (original, bought 1990s) and Xbox (original, bought when new in the market). Added are a Wii U and Nintendo Switch. Still, the 2600 and 5200 get the most play. :)

Re: Laura (7.18)

I thought I had posted in this thread before, but I didn't see it, so maybe not. Anyway, I find this episode extremely difficult to watch, and not just because of the Phil Collins music (lol). Honestly, I don't mind the music so much, but man, that subject material is just difficult. So sad and terr...

Re: CHiPs

It's a little cheesy, yes, but overall CHiPs has held up well over the years. I, too, watched it growing up, and still enjoy watching it with my kids.

Re: Any Spenser: For Hire Fans?

Cool, Tubi... I was wondering where you were watching that. I'll have to check that out - thanks!

I really want Remington Steele too, but we're not Prime Video members... oh well.

Re: I may be done with the internet, news and big tech!

I always look for the Hitchcock cameo as well, but I usually don't see it, so I have to look up cheats online so I know what time segment to look for him -- then I see it. :D

Re: I may be done with the internet, news and big tech!

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is excellent, and I should watch that tomorrow with my kids... hmm... I'm a big Hitchcock fan too - both of those you mention were excellent. I really liked Rear Window, The Birds, Psycho, Rebecca, Foreign Correspondent, Dial M for Murder, Vertigo, Marnie. Really the lis...

Re: Buying a Rolex or Chronosport

Thanks. Here is a pic of my current frequently-worn watches, in no particular order. L-R: Mathey-Tissot Batman GMT; Steinhart Pepsi GMT; Chronosport SQ30; Seiko 6M25; Omega Seamaster DeVille (ca 1960-something). The Omega was my grandfather's, and my parents recently found it and gave it to me. It i...
