I have taken a few wrist shots on the day of the titled WRUW thread but by the time it comes to post it’s tomorrow and my pic is yesterday’s news. So here are a few that were missed. On sat Australia was the hottest place on earth. With greatest temperatures from 15 locations. That’s the temp after we went for a drive. It was 44 in the car when we got in. Now it’s Monday. We are on holidays at Noosa QLD. pool time. Took a quick snap of this nice Porsche on the way out from the pool.

6306-7001 on a NDC parachute strap. Really comfortable and you wouldn’t know you were wearing a heavy watch.

No more sleeping in. Christmas break is over for my special needs kids so it's off to fire up the bus and start my run. Truth be told, I kinda missed the little darlin's.

I reckon this 7548-700b has seen as many miles as I have over the years. I love its character much in the same way Willie Nelson does his guitar “Trigger”. Rolled out on a two week adventure called “trucking”. On my way to Jacksonville, FL... I only take 1 watch with me while traveling so - this one for the duration. Was nice to take 3 months off from work and swap watches daily however - that don’t pay the bills nor fund more watch/tool purchases! 😉 Make today count folks... Lord I was born a rambling man.

Funny enough, I just watched a YouTube video on restoring Willy's guitar the other day. Pretty cool. Be safe out there Todd and may every load be a head haul!

I put this one on this morning as I finally changed the insert at the weekend to a new yobokies one. And my crappy clip on iPhone macro lens came so a couple of bonus pics to try it out! Hang 5 Stars on that one Phil.

Hmm, I just switched from a point & shoot camera to my phone for my pix. Techni - que needs to be modified, not that I will ever be a photographer....

I’ve been neglecting this watch (well, all of them) since getting the Tudor, so I’m showing it a little love.

A "True Pogue" for all those Pogue Purists. Wait a minute, is that The Colonel's actual watch sold at auction?
