Great looking watch, @mayfly! I like that stealth look with the black case. Q: Do you find a GMT function useful?

I know making your own cables is probably the best option for most here on the Warmoth forum. But if you can't or don't want to, save up and get some really good ones. A good set of cables is an investment. After years of having cheap cables break, I finally bit the bullet and bought six Mogami...
