Hey Ariel, easy on the partying up at BaselWorld! You have a few minor typos in there. But if you ever need another editor who will work for the swag John Biggs refuses to take home, come find me. (And 50 days of power reserve is incredible.)
Missed April Fool's by just 20 days. I guess Crazy Hours wasn't crazy enough.
If there were more room, I'd add the Panerai Radiomir or Luminor to the list too. So many watches, so little time!
I enjoyed building Lego as a child. I'd love to see how putting together a watch compares to putting together a Lego set. And as a rookie, I'll settle for putting together a the largest 3-hander movement they have available.
I'd add dead seconds to the list. Why buy an expensive complication that makes your mechanical watch look like a quartz watch?
I hope his watches all hack and are COSC spec...or are two-handers. I think having unsynchronized second hands would drive me crazy. Thus, just one watch at a time for me.
This is a beautiful watch! As for the question, I typically leave the factory bracelet/strap on except for Seiko divers which just beg to have their bands swapped frequently.
F1 Monaco is my favorite.
"Unfortunately the FuelBand was obviously designed with a left wrist bias so changing this puts the colored LED meter on the beveled edge facing away from you. It's an annoyance but not necessarily a deal-breaker."
If you don't like that orientation, you can plug it into the computer, and change the settings under advanced settings to flip it 180 degrees. You can also remove the pedometer/calorie counter features so you can just flip between watch and fuel count. That's my preferred setup.
And since it's just a 3d gyro, you definitely get fuels from driving just from accelerating and braking--even with an automatic transmission.
Love my fuelband. :)
Ariel, I can't wait for the next Hour Time Show so John Biggs can give you a very hard time about wearing this women's watch. Even on bracelet it isn't remotely manly.
Jeremy Lin. I really want to see what watch brand picks him up as an ambassador. He is the sports hero of the year....perhaps of the decade if he keeps playing the same way he has been.
I am personally fond of the name "Jellyfish". Have always been interested in picking one up just for the cool name. Manta Ray is up there too. (That is indeed the reason I picked up a Seiko Monster--it just sounds cool.)
