A Look At The Real Military Watches On This Memorial Day
Today we are meant to remember those who fought and fell for America. In doing so, it is hard for me not to think about the endless stream of "military inspired" watches that we see advertised so much. The oodles of pilot watches, special forces watches, officer watches, the list just goes on really. Some of the most popular watches stem from this lineage, and yet I wonder who ever actually wore the watches that many of today's timepieces are based on.It is true that various elite special fighting units are given watches, or at least they have the option of purchasing them. This represents a very small number of soldiers, and I have no idea whether they actually wear the watches, are given the watches, or if it is just a cute marketing strategy. For those individuals, we should consider them lucky, but the trade off is that they are placed in a pretty high degree of danger.Brands like Luminox claim that special forces units wear their watches, but I am unsure of this accuracy.

Special features of the watch include its titanium face and rubber straps
Only 50 of the Indicator series of watches will be built, and of these only 11 will be the range-topping variant you see here.

The face includes a stop watch and second timer, and a dial turns from green to red when the watch runs low on power.

New, smaller Casebudi???
Looks like Casebudi finally came out with a smaller case. It's 1.5 inches high. The small Oakley watch vault is 1.75 inches high and the large is 2.25 inches high. Score for ROs?!?!?! Wonder if it's too small...?.amazon/CASEBUDi-Watch.../dp/B009EEQ55C

TT Louder than YG??
I popped into an AD today and checked out their pre-owned selection. I have a 16613 blue dial but always had dreams of selling it to help fund a 16618 one day. The AD had a 16618 with serti dial and blue bezel and I was excited to try it on expecting that you would notice it on my wrist from a mile away (I had never tried on YG before today). I was underwhelmed and felt like my TT popped more than the YG.Anyone else with similar opinions? Did I just build up the YG in my head to be more than what it is?
