Belated as I've only just been able to adjust the strap and put it on today... I've been wearing a wrist splint most of the time recently, following plaster, following a motorbike crash. You may be able to see the fresh scars from the pins on the side of my hand...

Anyway, my wrist is looking a bit thin and weedy at the moment, but still only needed one link out. I've been looking for a watch for everyday and going out for non-formal for a while now but I hate very thick, very large ones so there's not been a lot of choice.

Finally saw one I liked and my better half got it for me for my birthday a couple of weeks ago, when I couldn't wear it. It's not massively expensive or anything, I mostly felt like posting it up as it feels like a really special treat after all the stiness and hassle following the bike crash smile



It's a Fossil Machine chrono, FS4682.
I'm very happy, and off to learn what the buttons do wink

Keep the instructions, I am yet to understand the functions of any chronograph watch I've owned. Looks a good all rounder, about 40mm?

Close, 42mm smile

This one's not tricky, as it turns out - the top button is start/stop, the bottom one is reset smile
