Tool watch used as it should be!

Some of you know I picked up my Ranger as a beater / tool watch. And I intend to use it that way!

First day on the wrist wearing it for my current flip

Let’s see how much this baby can take!

Already grazed it with the hammer a few times lol

You are a brave man. I wear my sub almost every day, but occasionally switch to the SKX if I know the day is going to involve some ‘hands on’ work

Nice! If I’m working on some intense terrain or in the dirt / with concrete I’ll wear my red wings. The blundstones are for all inside work! (Drywall, tile, framing, etc)

He said they were. I use to wear the same until they moved operations overseas. Now I only buy Rossi boots.
