an apt follow-up, another watch that's fairly inscrutable  still, it keeps time and has a functional internal bezel, i love that. this is one of my oldest watches, from before i knew much about seiko.... and, i still like it. but it's funny, despite the dive chart on the dial, it fogs up from washing dishes  |

Moisture is going to .... Destroy it eventually and that will be a big lost for the watch. |

Thank you Louis - So you need a shroud and bezel to complete your project? Those are tough to come by at reasonable $ I’ll be on the lookout. |

Funny you should mention that as I had to get my ass handed to me Saturday for 7 hours non stop due to the snowstorm and then stay / volunteer an hour more for no more money after we closed to try and get all of the Ebay items packaged up to ship out Monday only to get yelled at called out by the owner and his brother about my "attitude problem" which is due to them sitting back in the office all day not helping out front when they claim they do which they don't cuz most days they aren't there and day after day the one to the right and the one to the left who quit for 6 months during the peak season and now came back and after 2 weeks he is back to his old ways of not doing shit are nowhere to be found leaving me high and dry by myself.
I told them this situation has all of the signs of TOJ.
Maybe time to find soemthing after TOJ, TNJ, TNX job.
Debt free since 4/2016 and burying cash can't hold it against me unemployment / IRS / stimulus / lawsuit lien / FED lock your bank account whatever cash since.
Jus' Sayin'
I'll leave it at that for tonight but money isn't everything.
PS: I did have to reframe, reside, and rewindow the back of my grey house when I was down there 2 months ago so I am ready to move.
Unfortunately I was too busy building to get a bunch of during progress and finished pics and I fell off a ladder and I still can't fully move my elbow
