Project 365 // Day 172
The ‘Much Anticipated Delivery” leads to disappointment.
(”Theo’s” gonna have a field day with this one)
I’m pretty sure that my watch is a Nike Triax 35. It’s been a long time, but I am pretty sure.
I ordered a band for a Triax 35 and the band is too small. Last time I got a replacement band I had the Watch Hospital guys put it on because it got the better of me. Well it got the better of me this time too, but I don’t think it was me that was the problem. The thing is just too small.
I will be contacting Parsec Enterprises, whom I ordered the band from, to see if they can help me get to the bottom of it.
So I guess you can either expect a rave or a rant in the next few days….. time will tell.

This is the saddest story I have ever heard. Forget about Darfur…Pat’s watchband doesn’t fit!

You didn’t even consider my pocket watch / monocle idea did you?
It’s OK, you can admit it.

I’m a little teary-eyed over here.

One question: Why do you have an architectural scale?
Ok, two questions: Why did you measure on the 3/16″ scale and not full?

two answers for Seatown…. I don’t know what you are talking about re: architectural scale…. that’s the useless ruler.
and I used 3/16 because it looked nicest? I don’t know. The whole useless ruler thing gives me headaches

In my high school drafting class, my teacher would say “It’s not a ruler, I’M THE RULER, its a scale”
I can tell you this, its good for shooting rubber bands.
