| Happy 2011, guys. 2010 was one heckuva crazy year, and I haven't been able to post in the last while due to circumstances beyond my control...I'm guessing that most of you have heard, but our good friend
Noah Fuller is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Noah's been my friend, my mentor, and is a great guy..and the one who's made so many things in my life possible....even introduced me to my wife.
Sooo...Now to lighten the mood a bit. I was asked to build something unique by someone a few days ago, and this is what I came up with. This watch is based on Noah Fuller's Tsunami using some of his parts, some of mine, some sample parts, some hand-painting...
WR 300+m
SEIKO 6R15 hack/handwind 21,600bph mov't
5.05mm thick sapphire xtal w/Blue AR
Noah also sends you his regards.. Have a good one fellas!
