Hysek Earth Colosso Is A Weird Wonderful Watch Completely Out Of Place In Today's Market
I am afraid that the current state of the watch industry is not primed to appreciate watches like the Hysek Colosso. Today, fashion, looks, and style are very important. In essence, most of the emphasis is placed on offering watches to the super rich that look good. That is not always the case of course, and we still see interesting beasts like the Hysek Colosso.Seeing the Colosso reminds me of the DeWitt WX-1 Concept watch. Not because they look the same, but because they are bred from the same ilk. Two technically inclined science fiction watches meant for a very small number of enthusiasts. Each year you see a couple of watches like this which are debuted at Basel World, but this is certainly a very interesting model, from Hysek which is not typically a company to release such grand example of watch excess.The Colosso is really not a very pretty watch. While it does not have an offensive shape or anything like that, it looks like a planetary spaceship (literally to carry the planet)

seawolf ti & steel pics please!
Hey gang, I have had the pleasure of trying on the steelfish but saw a seawolf in ti & newer steel model as well at the A.D. I've been thinking About the seawolf and want to go back and try it on today. I think it spoke to me a little more than the steelfish. Can any owners of either model post some pics and opinions for me?

Crazy nylon strap day (pic heavy)
The purpose of this post is to demo how various Rolex models would look like when put on nylon strap. These are my personal choices and opinions. You may agree/disagree and/or like/dislike. I don't want to start a debate but you are welcome to post your own pictures.I personally found nylon strap most comfortable when comparing among, metal bracelet, leather and rubber. My wrist sweats a lot. It is really uncomfortable with moisture condensing under the bracelet, rubber or even leather strap. From time to time it gives me skin rash. I tried to wear my watch really loose to help the problem, but the downside is the watch head knocking around. Nylon straps have many advantages1. Very breathable(important for me)2. conform to the wrist better(good for some tricky wrist)3. CheapI refer to these straps as nylon strap because I cut off the additional loop pieces of every singe of them. I found it provides no real function but adding bulk and makes the watch head sitting higher on the wrist.
