And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Multiple color ways, but I like this blue one. One of Avi-8's more expensive lines, but still much less than a Rolex.
I have an aversion toward mechanical watches from working in an abrasives factory as a summer job aeons ago. It would get into even the waterproof ones and grind them to a stop, I think via the winding stem.
GMTs with a rotatable bezel as these watches have is far preferable to those having the 24 hr hand being adjustable with the crown to change the time zone. far simpler and faster.

ReplyDeleteJust don't like the skeletonized hands.
ReplyDeletePurchased two of their watches...on special...excellent quality and value. Look terrific on the wrist while keeping excellent time.
