Great idea, Bim. But unfortunately I delete all those photos where you can't see the watch. How about this one? ...
Wow ...

Mysterious Minerva? ;) Best, Nicolas.
Big Rock, Malibu, is another mysterious location . . .
By: Dr No : February 27th, 2014-17:00
. . . good for taking pics, and not ten miles from where I live. No mystery here . . . . . . just a setting sun, January 9 th , 2012. Unprocessed, not cropped, right off the camera . . . ...
You've no idea how prescient . . .
By: Dr No : February 28th, 2014-12:37
. . . the word 'sublime' is in this context, Nico. The pass thru Big Rock on northbound Pacific Coast Highway is right where the moon descends in the early morning. I've driven thru there just before sunrise to see the moon setting in the notch between Bi...

There's no hiding . . .

We need to talk about the focusing bit .... ;)
LOL!
By: sanro : February 28th, 2014-02:30
I guess you all need some help to "focus" the front...it is a PAM339. The back part is Bagan, in Myanmar, one of the most amazing places in the World. HAGWE!
Sometimes ...
By: bimbeano : February 28th, 2014-06:09
.. IMO it's better to focus on the background ... at least in this case .... does this tell something about the watch ? Or the landscape ? :-) Bim
Bagan, in Myanmar
By: sanro : February 28th, 2014-21:11
It is an incredible place built from the XI to the XIII century, after the King of Northern Myanmar conquered the South where Buddhism had already gotten and so he discovered it and converted to Buddhism. So he took the leading Buddhist lama and took him ...
Crazy picture !

Your picture was taken on the Golan?
By: stromer : February 28th, 2014-08:33
That really makes it special. Seeing peace (or at least something similar to that) where people killed each other is always a moving experience. The second picture? That is something normally not discussed here. Maybe someone will recognize it? Best, Mart...
Yup, Sea of Galilee in the background ...

Hey Martin! What is that monster in the second pic?! Best Blomman
Citizen CyberAqualand
By: stromer : March 1st, 2014-07:14
Probably the most sophisticated iteration of Citizen's Aqualand line. No hands, just a display and a full featured dive computer (Compressed air only, no Nitrox in my case. However a Nitrox capable version, the CyberAqualand Nx, became available later). S...
