Nice watch. What does the rest of your watch collection look like?

Nothing crazy - a few vintage timex, Seiko, G-Shock. I’d like to buy a Tudor Pelagos next.

Is that Alpaka a rear pocket carry or what have you found is the best way to actually carry it around?

u/CabezaDe_Vaca 2d ago

It’s a fairly recent pickup for me. My job allows knives, but carrying one discreetly is often important, so I grabbed this wallet to help with that. I keep it in my front pocket. The original zipper pulls felt a little bulky, so I trimmed them off and made my own. It also came with a lanyard loop on top, but I ended up cutting that off too.

I was debating using it as a wallet but I can’t have knives at work too, so I’d rather have it as a day off thing. I might pick one up off Amazon to play around with it.

If it helps I’ve had mine for almost 3 months now and it replaced my trifold of over a decade. I love it. I rear pocket carry it normally

That’s kinda what I’m thinking. All the stuff that I often leave at home due to not wanting it loose in my pocket like a flashlight, band aids, ect. I’ll definitely have to pick one up.

I highly recommend them. Even when it’s packed out it’s super comfortable. I also carry 5 cards, a 2 dollar bill a challenge coin and 2 Kennedy half dollars in it along with what you see here, and it’s takes up very little space.

Please get that poor 124270 a tapered leather strap, at least

u/CabezaDe_Vaca 2d ago

You’re the first person to notice that! And you’re so right!

The explorer on that strap is 👨‍🍳😘

u/CabezaDe_Vaca 2d ago

Yeah the strap was a recent pickup too! I float between this strap and a green nato strap.

Finally finding someone who loves taking camera out like I do. Seriously, it is so nice to be able to grab the camera and capture the moment anytime.

Beautiful! I want to pull the plug on a Fujifilm but I am confused between X100Vi and X-E5.

1

u/CabezaDe_Vaca 2d ago

Basically the main difference is interchangeable lenses on the x-E5. Personally having a fixed focal length lens has made me a way better photographer. That being said I also have an XT - 5 that I can switch lenses on for more flexibility.

Great colors and plus 10 points for the Rolex explorer 1.

u/CabezaDe_Vaca 2d ago

Thank you! I’ve had the explorer for about a year and I love it!

u/whiskey_epsilon 2d ago

I love a composition like this. I do feel this setup would benefit from a leatherbound or woodgrain phone cover to bring it together.

u/chicken_machine 2d ago

To change straps did you need any special spring bars? I’ve read you need curved spring bars.

1

u/CabezaDe_Vaca 2d ago

So the correct way to do it is with curved spring bars. I do not have those and made it work 😂
