Thanks Man!... Yea, it might not be the best color for daily wear, but it sure is a fun watch whenever I do wear it

I think it’s perfect for daily wear. But then again, I rock my red Nikki Hayden T-race as a daily...

Let’s call this my DYI combo. Knife and watch are both from kits my wife ordered as gifts for me. Both came from the ‘Mancrates’ website, but I’m they’re just outsourcing and repackaging.

Pretty sure the knife is a 605 kit from Jantz Supply with Micarta scales and AUS-8 Steel. Nothing special, but not a bad knife, and I really enjoyed shaping the scales.

Not sure where the watch kit was sourced, but it’s got a semi-decent Seagull automatic movement, which seems to hold true within a few seconds a day so far. And I f you think knife screws are small, try putting in watch screws. And the second hand was almost impossible! Still, it was cool to build (well.... assemble).

Even the barrel in the background is a kit. I currently have bourbon aging in it.

Like the face and hands, remind me of a sinn.

It really has that simple, basic field or tank watch look to it. I’ll probably put a better strap on it eventually, since I plan on it replacing my old Expedition for camping and hiking, but at the moment, I’m enjoying wearing it as is.

Just back from a little spa treatment-new battery, gaskets, a little fluff & buff. Definitely a favorite, glad to have it home.

This Orient Mako has been going strong for years now, what a great budget automatic.

Is that a Red Rock strap? Great combo.

It's actually a Greg Stevens Designs Strap. He makes really nice watch straps. Very high quality. It was a little rigid at first but it has broken in so nice. I really like the way it looks with the watch. Thanks
