Thank-you. Excellent day. Caught fish, cooked a great rib steak for friends, drank a good bottle of wine and some nice whiskey to finish! Life is good...

If you’re fishing for a Kraken, then probably no.

I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s fishing the Jersey Shore religiously with my grandfather who wore his 5513. We would get gunky with bait and fish and sunblock etc... For him it was his daily wearer for decades and I carried on the tradition for about 20 years.

From last week with my trusty Tudor GMT. Not much luck but a couple decent sized sea bass.

Jack Nicklaus landed the worlds largest line caught marlin sporting his trademark yellow gold day-date.

I'd be surprised if he had that bad boy pressure tested before venturing out onto the ocean.

So there, Rolex, fishing.... No problem.

P.s. great shots, stunning sunset OP
