  1. Iowa fan? I know they have their own version.
  2. Unfortunate timing. The big Swatch Group brands (Omega, Tissot, Longines, etc.) increased their prices on October 1st due to the ongoing tariff situation. They probably ran out of the pre-tariff stock they had shipped to the States. As far as I know, Rolex, AP and Breitling haven't done the same... yet.

  4. Ian Boyd: Can Texas’ offense crack Florida’s bend-but-don’t-break defense?
  5. Did you end up pulling the trigger? I've had my eye on the Black Bay 58 925 for a little while now. Silver watches are rare these days, and Tudor claims that the alloy they use doesn't tarnish. And the grey-taupe colour scheme is damn nice. One thing that gives me pause is the exhibition caseback, which gives it a little extra thickness and feels odd for a Tudor to have.
  6. Update: Exactly 1 year from purchase and initial synchronization, the watch is +1.9 seconds ahead of NIST time. Pretty damn fantastic. Will be interesting to see how the accuracy and thermocompensation hold up as the movement ages. I didn't take measurements very often throughout the year, but from what I could tell the rate of deviation definitely slowed down during the cooler winter months. Citizen's A010 and A060 calibres (rated at ±5 sec./year) perform TC correction roughly once every 24 hours, compared to ETA's PreciDrive movement which does it every 16 minutes. Presumably the Citizen movements have larger correction intervals to save energy, since they are solar-powered. I haven't checked the accuracy in different positions; Citizen's newest 0100 calibre (rated at ±1 sec./year) uses an 8.4 MHz AT-cut crystal with negligible positional variance, but the older A010 calibre uses a 32 KHz XY-cut crystal that can vary by up to 2 seconds a year in different positions. Outside of Hoptroff's CSAC watches which each contain a miniaturized atomic clock inside, you won't find watches more intrinsically accurate than these.
  7. Bobby Burton has hinted that other SEC coaches are not nearly as honest as Sark is when it comes to injury reports. Presumably Napier falls into that group
  8. India just won their ninth Asia Cup with a perfect record, including a 3-0 whitewash of Pakistan 😁
  9. Penn State at #7 is fucking outrageous. What the hell have they done to be ranked ahead of us?
  10. Georgia had 37 sacks last year. 13 of them came against us. Their pass rush obliterated us while looking average in other games, and there's no reason to believe it will be different this year.
  11. #3, #4, #5 and #8 all bit the dust this week. We should stand to move up a few spots heading into the Florida game. And after that, #7 looms...
  12. Four seconds left. Just throw it as high and far OOB as you can and head to OT
  13. We have a tie game! Oregon's defense is exhausted.
  14. ANOTHER 4th down conversion by Penn State. This is some drive
  15. PSU drive still alive on the 4th down conversion!
  16. Oregon's falling apart quickly here
  17. Oregon now on the move, in the redzone. They're winning the trenches
