@dumpling@octodon.social wanted a picture of the hedgie cafe before cleaning to see how much of a mess the hedgehogs make

of course the little buggers were relatively tidy last night, just threw the biscuits around

Ooh, new release from Bulova, reissue of their Chronograph A from the 70's

There's a version in orange and blue

I want it

I wanna meet them and say hello and maybe give them food

(also yes, we have a national pie week)

Here's a fun bit of history

You might look at this watch and think "who the fuck would put a domino's pizza logo on a rolex?"

Short answer: Rolex did

Starting from the 1980's Domino's Pizza has had something called the "Rolex Challenge", if a franchise hits certain sales goals, the franchisee gets a Rolex from corporate

Domino's specifically orders these from Rolex, and the logo gets put on the watch in the Rolex factory

Reminder that the commander in chief of the norwegian king's guard is Brigadier Sir Nils Olav III

Of more note is the fact that Sir Nils Olav III is a penguin

cool new G-SHOCK release, a proper fitness tracking watch thingy!

The GBD-H1000 series

world.g-shock.com/asia-mea/en/

Has an optical heartbeat sensor, GPS/GLONASS/QZSS, altitude, barometric pressure, and compass

Also, most interestingly, solar assisted charging! The timekeeping and notification features will keep running just on solar, the GPS and heart tracking needs more juice so topping up the battery with the charger is advised after using that

I'm beginning to think I may have to enlarge the doors on the hedgehog cafe

and in lower end of the market news, couple of woodland-y camo-y G-SHOCK caisoaks for those people who found their collab with the british army was a little tryhard

ooooohhhh pretty

New Tetra colourways from Nomos

Somewhat tenuously an homage to Ludwig Van Beethoven according to them

Very pretty though

If you've got a couple of quartz watches, do yourself a favour and pick up one of these cheap watch tool kits

They cost about 15 bucks, watch batteries are a couple bucks a pack, it's super easy to replace them, and to get it done by a jeweller costs 10 bucks

Change two watch batteries and it's paid for itself

Also includes all the stuff for sizing bracelets and changing straps, well worth it
