Well it was a pretty great Friday. Then I hurt a trusted friend.

Groat! I read through this bloody thing and still don’t know what happened? You threw the watch at your dog because it wouldn’t eat until 6pm and you’re blaming Rik??? Is this correct?

Oh, guess we could add the Tudor BBC as the ceramic case should be durable enough. See, I know you're gonna beat the sh'' out of it, and frankly the Tudor or B&R I have faith in, the PAM CF not as much.

Or get a G-Shock, they're great.

Reported for lack of reading comprehension skills and even thinking I’d be hostile to the dog!!

Decided to grab the smallest of the dive computers. Put it on and immediately felt better. Then realized it needs a new battery and if I remember correctly it’s a specific battery that has to be purchased from Oceanic and it comes with the seals and other crap.
This is torture.

Not even with one part of the scenario. Nice try though. Try harder next time?

Contacted Rik today, watch goes to him Friday.

Unfortunately my offer on the 15037 was declined. So I guess it’s the ole Oceanic geo 2 for the next month or so.

Take some before pics. Rik does fantastic work and it will likely look brand new after.

I asked him not to polish it. I doubt there will be much difference before and after externally.

I guess not bummer. Dropped it off to Rik today and he polished everything unless it’s vintage. So I guess it’s coming back polished.

Also, it’s 23 yrs old and apparently (according to the case back) it’s never been serviced.

Also dropped great grandfathers pocket watch off to him.

He was super knowledgeable and an all around great guy. Thank you all for the recommendation, I think he is perfect for the job!!

Lol, I’m sure all those that make fun of me for the scratches are breathing a sigh of relief reading that.

He’s a pro. It always looks way better than I think it will. He does it super tasteful and won’t look over polished.

Yeah, he showed me a watch of his that he worked on and it looked brand new. He said, mine will look like that too.

He’s got my great grandfathers pocket watch I need to pick up too. And I don’t trust any postal service as far as I can throw them.
