In the name of solidarity, I'll remove my watch for the rest of the day. You shouldn't have to go through this alone, Gus.

(And because it's 1:30am and I'm going to bed...but still, you know, solidarity...)

thanks.

congrats on the new arrival, chrono always a great addition, looking good

I mean I'll tape my iPhone to my wrist if need be, but I need a timing device just to satisfy my look at my wrist for no reason than just to look at my watch, and not know what time it is.
"my day would be all wrong without it" yes that about sums it up

that is an amazing complication and displayed so cleanly… very nice time piece there.
