Spent a week out in San Francisco and Los Angeles and decided to take the FC along for the week. What was supposed to be a business trip found my doing hikes through the mountains, climbing up rock hills, and allowing my watch to "live". At the end of the day, not a scratch, chip or nick on the watch.

Was hoping to take more pictures of the other scenery I found, but honestly, I found myself enjoying the scenery and the watch in the flesh, rather than spend too much time taking pictures of it.

The best things about this watch are that 1) it continually refracts light in different ways and is always fun to look at and 2)it is so comfortable to wear. The 44mm just sits better on my wrist and the lightness of the carbon lets me wear this all the time, and the durability gives me a peace.

In San Francisco, stayed at a place called Cavallo Point. Right across the Bay Bridge in Sausalito, it offered an idyllic setting and a great view of San Francisco, similar to what Hoboken offers to NYC.

Found myself on a hike through the Tennessee Valley Trail.

Getting closer...

Decided to climb a steep hill..

100 feet above the ocean, loved it.

Then was in LA, didn't have time for many pictures, but a look from the W. Hollywood looking out at Downtown LA

And what east coasters love to do when visiting California, get some In-n-Out.

Have a good weekend all!
