Beach days are winding down...
Only a few more days at Crystal Beach. The watches have been pretty reliable - with a total of who knows how many thousands of feet of water resistance - they were severely tested to about 2 feet. Both passed with flying colors! They survived gallons of tequila, Old Vienna, Miller High Life and Molson Stock Ale. Next year I may need a POC to help with more accurate timing at the smoker. I think it's justified.





















See you next summer...

Rob

I still have another month or so of beach time left, before it starts to cool down. The ole' Invicta has seen a good amount of "harsh water testing" this summer! Took it on a few canoe trips, tons of swimming pools, lakes and in the Pacific. Been a pretty good summer!

I hope to get at least one more beach day in before the summer comes to a close.
