While I'm being a total Sinn geek, did you know that the Sinn 141 S was one of the first automatic watches worn in space?

It was on the wrist of Reinhard Furrer during Spacelab D1, a similar watches were also worn on Mir and during Spacelab D2

He bought the watch privately and wanted to show that an automatic watch would still wind itself without the help of gravity

they're also getting rid of the 75x series which are classics

still, hopefully they'll be releasing some super interesting stuff to replace those, they're due to bring out two new watches in mid-february

:( Sinn just discontinued the T2

Real shame, there's nothing quite like it on the market anywhere, 41mm tonneau case, titanium so it's really light, sad to see it go out the collection

The T1's still there though, but that one's 45mm so just not the same

@noelle kinda hoping it's more shaun of the dead than 28 days later

@Archadia @balrogboogie oh I know, but they're incredibly reticent about saying that, they always say "I need this for hunting" instead

So I'm trying to hit their ego until they admit that their toys are for shooting people-type things so that bit of their argument collapses

uspol, gun control 

@balrogboogie my usual response is "if you need a semi-automatic rifle with a 30-round mag to take down one deer then you're obviously not very good at it"

Ooh, cool new watch if you're a Queen fan

@halcy maybe uses her hair?

that sounds like it makes as much sense as anything else

@halcy I... yeah, I guess those could be described as automatic revolvers with how they work in the game, yeah

@halcy you're allowed a machine gun but it has to be muzzle loaded

that'll keep 'em busy for a while working that one out

@halcy nothing in any calibre smaller than 14.5x114mm allowed

@mavica ooh, I hadn't even thought of that as a use for newer vr stuffs

@solder_on @garbados just saying, maybe be nice to your computers now... before... things happen
