A Look at the L��m-Tec Combat B19 Bronze
Usually, a variation on a watch we've already reviewed isn't enough to warrant another article, but in the case of the L��m-Tec Combat B19, we made an exception. Why? Well, we loved the Combat B16 and Super Combat B2 when we reviewed them a little over 2 years ago. They are big, brawny watches with military styling that are simply very appealing. They also achieve a surprising level of uniqueness between their dials and coin edged cases to stand out amongst other boutique sport watches. The B16 in particular left a bit of a hole in our hearts for a rugged PVD watch with simple, aggressive styling. If you haven't yet, give that review a read as it gets into details that will be omitted for redundancy below.When I became aware that L��m-Tec was making a new solid bronze version of the combat, I was immediately excited by the idea. The recent uptick in bronze watches, from the beastly Ancon Tank to the subtle Archimede Pilot and lots in between, has made me, and lots of you, fans of the mat

Briefly stepped out to get my coffee mug from my car, its a rainy day, came back inside the house and the lume on the watch was quite bright.I love Omega's lume!

Speedmaster Pro Wrist Shots
I wear a 1986 Rolex GMT Master II, and I like it very much.However, the more I see of the NASA Speedmaster Pro, and the more I consider all of its aspects and qualities (price not the least), the more it seems the perfect watch.While visiting this subforum over the past months, I have noted that the Speedmaster Pro looks much better on wrists than it does in advertising photos.Interestingly, the Speedmaster Pro looks a little different, and takes on a slightly different character on each and every wrist upon which I have seen it.I would like to see more wrist shots of the Speemaster on this forum, and even some links to more wrist shots.I could never give up my GMT Master II; however, I could see myself saving up my money and acquiring a Speedmaster Pro sometime in the next few years.A few wrist shots of the Speedmaster could push me over the edge.Thanks to all for a great forum.

The myopiccoog, FremStar and vc_watches get-together
Pics from a quick lunch we just enjoyed together. Met these guys via TRF and after exchanging PMs we figured ah what the heck, we're in town all at the same time and we're free for lunch - let's meet up!Unfortunately, the pics from my camera aren't that good, with only one or two out of the three timepieces in focus or lit in a proper way. I've got to say I had a TON of fun speaking with my brothers-in-watches today, and seeing myopiccoog's 5270G and FremStar's Day-Date in the wild was nothing short of AWESOME.Till the next meet! Below are some of the pics I took (next post, because I forgot to click upload...)...
