Running... Again?

Image
  If you know me you know there was a time about 10 years ago or so where I was running. A lot. At least 5 days a week and at least 5 miles a run. I wasn’t training, I wasn’t preparing for a race or a marathon. I just found myself enjoying the time spent running. I wasn’t obsessed with numbers, but I kept track of them all and liked seeing improvements in time and distances. It was good physical health and mental health. Then I tweaked my knee. Not bad enough that I couldn’t walk on it, just a tweak that told me I needed to back off of running for a little bit. So I decided on 2 weeks. At the end of 2 weeks I aborted a run very early as the pain was still there. 2 weeks became 3, became a month, became 5 years. 

... am I right? Some of my favorite features on the Hamilton Pilot Day-Date for #MacroMonday. I love the indices and how they play with light, that full day window, and the subtle sun ray dial.

Saying good-bye to this one today, the first automatic. Hopefully it'll ignite the passion in someone else.

Hasn't left my wrist yet. I think the other watches aren't happy with this one.

SOTC Mid-2020

The Collection It's July 2020 and I thought I'd do a little update on what the watch collection is now, and what the plans are for the rest of the year. I've pretty quiet with watches for 2020 just picking up straps until last week when I pulled the trigger on my mini grail the Hamilton Khaki Pilot Day Date, better known as the Cooper model since it's work by Cooper in the movie Interstellar . So we'll start from bottom left of the above photo.

It's not divers quality lume, but it is unique. Also, I love when the hands line up to form a full sword/light saber depending on the time.

Final shot for the day, some lume. It's not spectacularly bright, but it's at least unique.

Beyond happy with today's delivery. I've wanted this model for over 2 years, but every time I had it in the cart I talked myself out of it. So this time it stayed in as a late birthday present to myself.
