I just got downgraded....better than furloughed I guess. Don’t think I’ll stick around long enough to find out how quickly the 121 world bounces back. Sitting reserve in this post-covid travel paradigm doesn’t interest me.
Oh man, I miss the 737. Spent a lot of time in that flight deck (relatively speaking, not compared to you airline pilots). Good bird, but I am biased!
Edit: Best of luck to you guys. My friend just started with Kalitta since the madness started. At least he gets some 747 time now.

I have the same watch with brown face. It’s been fantastic. I love LumTec.Enlarging the holes in my Lum-Tec Combat B Bronze to fit Seiko Diver Fat Spring Bars

And now for something just silly. I don't know why, but I like it.
My beloved Seiko Monster’s stem adjustment is getting a tad wonky after 12 plus years of street patrol abuse. Looks like I’ll be retiring it going to my SKX009 for my last couple of years. I upgraded the jubilee to the Super J with solid end links, screws, and dual button scissor clasp. I had to regulate it but it’s now +3 a day on the wrist and if I leave it stem down overnight, it settles back to dead on.
The GMT knock off is an Islander that’s new and it’s +2 a day out of the box. 300.00 with sapphire, hack/hand wind, etc. I’ll wear it off duty.
Regards.
Speaking as a fellow Monster lover - drop in a new movement and drive on...

Yes, I am planning to do this sometime in 2021. I would prefer the hand wind/hack movement that was available in the later generations of Monsters.
My watch repair skills are rudimentary at best. I can open the case back for regulations, size bracelets, etc but that is about it. I have pulled up some videos on doing this swap and as I understand it, I'll need to buy some tools to pull the hands at the minimum.
I might be better off sending it to a shop to get it modded and if anyone knows of a good one, I'd appreciate the recommendations.
Regards.
Posted, well, just because I can rely on both!!!
OK... where does one get one of those mugs?
The most powerful and harmful influence Trump has had on our politics…has been the effect on his opponents. They have been triggered into an orgy of self-mutilation—eager to amputate their own history and disfigure their own political traditions.
