Caught in the rain with my polar
Was at my sons soccer game this Saturday morning. Started off as a beautiful day but then it started pouring. First time my watch has been wet and I must say it really brings out its character.

Very nice - the dial and the GMT hand really pop. The 216570 isn't for everyone, but it's the best one for me. Apparently, it works for you too.

Nice! You have a couple of extra cyclops on there now.

I love the 216570.

Exactly what I was thinking. The contrast of the Orange and white looks amazing to me. The white makes the Orange hand really pop and the orange really makes the white look crisp. Compliment each other perfectly.

Yeah I know, I shook some water off before the pic or I would have had a lot more.

Does it still work? Hope the water didn't do too much damage.


























Nice watch

It's a watch that *should* get wet! Nice pics.
However, I feel the need to complain about Americans calling football 'soccer'. It's called football because you actually use your feet, unlike American 'Football' where, as far as I can make out, they use their hands. A bit like rugby. Except y'all believe the forward pass is acceptable
