When I got my Speedmaster serviced, I also had them repair this 1920 Burlington Railroad grade 21 jewel pocket watch. My watch guy said it’s good to go for another 100 years. It’s kept perfect time for the last week.

old pocket watch movements are something special. I think I could look at them for ages. Cool knife too!

The really are. I’m so impressed by how much artistry went into things like font and finishing. And that something made over 100 years ago is still working perfectly. I guess we all recognize and appreciate that bc of our pocketknives, but it definitely harkens back to a different way of creating everyday objects.

Thank you, I’ve been saving this book for awhile. Just started it last week and really enjoying it.

Everything by John Williams is worth reading.

Agreed! Just finished Stoner a few months ago. And had read Augustus last year. This is the last one.

I'm convinced that one day only cockroaches and Citizen BM8180s will survive.

These 2 are a perfect match today.
