Thanks Dan. It's not an easy one to get hold of these days (the blue hands and markers are gorgeous in the right light though), and I switched the bracelet for the strap yesterday to give it a different look.

Happy Sunday

While they are all nice watches I don't think we need a WRUW everyday. Please remember the forum has only limited bandwidth and bandwidth is quite expensive.

Seriously?
Alot of people are paying to support this site and now they cant get to post a simple WRUW thread?
How much band width can a thread like this take? Most of the pics shown are usually hosted by flickr/photobucket etc.
Why not just set a limit to how many posts people can post in a day while you`re at it?
I really like the WRUW threads, at least it brings something to the forum rather than the x amounts of "oh my gosh I just scratched my rollie, RSC next!" threads...
Had to get that off my chest, back to the thread at hand.

116000 on Nato for me

Surely the answer is to limit the file size of attachments and thereby encourage people to use a hosting service such as Flickr, Photobucket, etc? I believe I'm right in thinking that image URL's make use of the host's bandwidth, not this forum's?

I tend to agree with the earlier comment that many of the threads are similar and that these photo extravaganzas add some interest for those of us that like looking at watches!

We can have it all. I'll start attaching pics from photobucket from now on [especially since I'm a pic hog].
Po' man's Daytona strapped to carbon fiber.


And now I can add captions to pics.

Never been a leather strap guy, except natos, of course. But this watch, with it's integrated end links, opened my eyes.
