6 months ago I purchased an Apple Watch. I haven't worn the Omega since.

This morning I open this thread and I think to myself "I am going to wear my Omega today." Two seconds later I come to my senses. " I can't wear the Omega, I have to close my rings."

Damn, Apple got me addicted to data. Is there a pill for that?

I had a nice drawer of interesting/vintage Seikos, including three Sumos, before I started running and got a Garmin.

Now I haven't worn a non-data watch for more than maybe 20 minutes in the past six years. I've sold a couple of the Sumos, and am slowly selling off the others (if only I could remember all the details...some were stock, a couple were custom...).

Just happened to change the NATO strap on my Fenix 5 today, from a deep blue nylon to orange. I also have a leather strap for it, but don't like it as much as the nylon straps.
