How’d I miss that one? Yep it’s perfect no matter the dial.

Maybe a new screen name is in your future, too...

I use names like OP, SkyD, Daytona, Sub, SD, GMT, ExpII, BBN, BBR, GTC, GTD, SMP Bond, SMP Orange, Mark II, Mark II Co-ax, Steelfish, etc. Works for me. As a matter of fact I like the names so much that if I have anymore daughters they'll be getting those names.

1. Yes, naming your watch is weird.
2. Here is a list of female explorers. Should get some ideas off it:

It’s a watch bro.

I have a funny feeling there won’t be too much interaction with actual females. Just a hunch.

Lol

Not my thing.

Yes, naming your watch is weird, but so is spending a bunch of your free time posting on a watch forum, so naming your watch is just a small step into more weirdness (-; .

I’d go with Amelia or Eva.

I'd name it after a female explorer. Someone like Jeanne Baré (Jean for short)

A French sailor and botanist in the 1700s, Jeanne Baré was the first woman to circumnavigate the world. However, she did it disguised as a man, a ruse that kept her close to her love, Philibert de Commerson. The two met over a shared passion for botany. First she was the teacher to the widowed man's children, then his assistant, and later lover.

When Commerson scored a commission from the French government to sail the world and conduct research, the couple conspired to hide Baré's gender by dressing her as a man, "Jean." It worked for more than a year, but when the crew hit the South Pacific, some islanders uncovered the truth, though particulars on how vary. When Baré returned to France, the Navy paid tribute to "this extraordinary woman" and her work of gathering new species of plants by giving her a pension of 200 livres a year.

Make way, Megan coming through.... And I have the winning name for your explorer ->
" Moana " arguably the hottest female name in Hollywood in 2016 / 2017 pronounced as moh-AH-nah

Disney's Moana was voiced by 14 yr old Auli'l Cravalho, an Oahu, Hawaian native

The dial is an easy fix. Choose a great watchmaker and voila, they dial you desire!
