Swatches and Blunders. The discount section

Ha Ha.
Docbob dragged you into this…

a little section, where we also discuss watch appreciation…

Your penchant for wrist bling, has not passed unnoticed…!!

Any recent faves.??

Now it looks like new gel products, are likely curtailed…

well, my main daily watch is a fairly meek Rip curl Detroit automatic.
that’s the one that you guys would all recognise from the toob toobs.
I originally loved it because of my love of mechanical things. the gears and mechanism appealed to me.

Nice…!

Can you do a teardown vid, where you upgrade the main spring. shim the gears, disable the blowback, and advance the timing.??

Wait a minute…

Talk like that, will get you put on a watch-list nowadays…!!

Kaboom-tish…!! ( pun intended!)

Yea whack an M150 in it that’s what I’m talking about!

That’ll get a Rip in your curl :joy: :v:

Can’t believe Guido got me clicking on a fkn Advert!:joy:
Was interesting to “watch” though, very nice design and details.
Rip Curl has come a long way from the old plastic Surf watches I had back in the 1980’s.
