Just sitting at the computer reading the news (RIP Valentino) and waiting for a pizza to come out of the oven.

Love that first shot

Great capture, thx for sharing!

Thanks. I think the contrasts work favorably.

This could be the first sentence of a very interesting book 👌🏻👍🏻

And really like the watch choice of the protagonist 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

And if I was a writer I'd have a clever second sentence to write here.

A sentence a day…

And we’re not far from a short story away 😁👍🏻🤞🏻

Nice Croton!

Thank you Quattro.

And the pizza was tasty. Pepperoni, bell pepper and leeks 😋

I am always embarrassed when i see the closeups of my bracelet. It is what it is.

Yeah. Yikes.

There is a life outside the usual suspects. This Croton is one of these cool looking ones.

Its the only watch I have with this tonneau shaped case.

By: Gregineugene : January 20th, 2026-07:04

Lovely.

That first photo caught my attention. Very nice Croton!

Lovely Watch, ❤️ the dial

Greg, I’m not sure that I’ve seen that watch before, it’s very nice. Please give some background.

I purchased this watch in January of 2020 from my watchmaker here in Eugene.

By: Gregineugene : January 20th, 2026-17:21

It satisfied a enduring urge to have a chronograph and here was one I could afford. It sports a cam-actuated Valjoux 7733 in this lovely stainless pillow case. I bought it on a black leather sport band but soon changed it for the ss bracelet that it is on...

I meant to add that there is a good book, "Chasing Time" by Alistair Gibbons that explores the chronograph.

...

That is a beautiful timepiece!

Thanks KCLQMULKU.

By: Gregineugene : January 20th, 2026-21:08

Just wondering...you don't have anything to do with this company here in Eugene do you? ...

Afraid not! 😆
