    Bob, are those see-through hands on the fj1?
    Cool concept 8) .

    It's midsummer celebrations today here in Sweden and it will likely be wet in more than one way today :twisted: .
    So I'll go with something rugged that can deal with that (and deflect small/medium sized asteroids) :lol: .

    Bob, I like that one, one of your best, those hands really are great.

    Steve, thats a great pic of your Black monster, I love the way that you can see the glow of the lume even in broad daylight just at thge edge under the shadow of the case.

    I'm wearing a cheapo Adidas 200m diver, I put a MOD dial in so the looks are passable, but the main word for this watch is CHEAP :-)

    regards

    Well spotted - that's exactly it. The lume is so intense you can often see it in broad daylight. There's no downside to this watch - it is absolutely gorgeous. I may have to marry it.
    It's a good job I didn't get an orange one - I'd be in prison by now... :sex:

    Your new "Folly" is most striking Bob and the dial, to me at least, is your most original design so far. I like it very much.

    As I was telling 'Dave E' (when we met up) ... I used to have a Citizen which did just that, when the lume was loaded ... it used to glow even in daylight ... and frighten small children whenever near a shadow ... I must say, I used to think it was cool. 8)

    Anyway, the reason I am writing this ... with the Damasko DC57 :roll: ... when you took it away from the shadow the green lume would completely disappear into pure white ... the effect was downright eerie. Still don?t make me buy one tho. :P

    Nice hands Bob! Now you need to work on the signature ... looks like FUDJ ... FUDGE.

    Thanks for the comments, folks. The watch was to try out the hands.. ;)

    The problem was to see how one could use hands taking an infill on a watch without any luminous markers. (I have a definite lack of good, wide, blued steel hands.) I had been thinking about color washes (thin, translucent, colours). And then the penny dropped.

    I put the "f&j" there because there was a lot of space, and I've been told a number of times that I need something other than the 3 cubes. I thought I would give it a try. The "f&j" stands for "flotsam & jetsam". :)

    Best wishes,
    Bob

    I'm wearing my PRS-14 on a new watchadoo lumpy bracelet today. We moved into our new house last Friday and since we have a pond with some pebbles around it I thought I'd try a photo there this morning (not copying anyone elses style honest ;)).

    Decided to have a change from the Sinn656 for the weekend, let's be fair, it's just about the only watch I've worn for five months! So I had a root amongst this lot..................

    ....and decided I am long overdue for something shiny, so chose this........

    ............and I still haven't sold any to help fund a UX, and now the DN GMT has reared it's head :roll: :roll: :roll:

    Hope you are feeling better soon Paul and congratulations on that wonderful watch....(jealous I am :wink: )

    I was wearing this, bought last week from Dr Pete -



    it's a 6138-7000 from 1973 in lovely condition, on a Timefactors rally to give it that authentic 'Jason King' look :D

    But then the postman knocked......Bry had worked his dark(ish) arts again -

    Friday it is...... and happy I am ! :lol:
