  1. I never saw him play for DC United, but as a coach... fuck that guy 🖕
  2. RIP. I really enjoyed his writing. Though, ngl, I thought he had died years ago.
  3. Reverso is my vote, but throwing in Longines Dolce Vita as a wildcard
  4. GF and I went to the Burnley match in May as well. But, being as it was our first time going to the stadium or even an EPL match, rather than dealing with figuring out the nuances of memberships and ticket exchanges, I bit the bullet and bought a premium package from one of Tottenham's approved brokers (sportbreaks.com if you're interested) that included nice seats, lounge access, and tickets for the underground and overground on match day. Yeah, it was way more than 10 GBP pp, but it was a great experience.
  5. My latest acquisition. Speedmaster Mark III c. 1973. It’s by no means a small watch, but it still wears surprisingly well imo. It has that 70’s funk, chunk, and heft but isn’t gaudy like the 50+mm watches that were popular a few years ago https://www.fratellowatches.com/speedy-tuesday-omega-speedmaster-professional-mark-iii-176-002/
  6. The Apollo astronauts most certainly did not wear 1971 Speedmaster Mark II's on the Moon in 1969. Neil and Buzz both wore Speedmaster Professional ref 105.012. Only Buzz wore his on the surface. Michael Collins wore ref 145.012. https://airandspace.si.edu/collection-objects/chronograph-armstrong-apollo-11/nasm_A19731247000 https://airandspace.si.edu/collection-objects/chronograph-collins-apollo-11/nasm_A19900272000 https://www.fratellowatches.com/astronaut-michael-collins-omega-speedmaster-professional-145-012/ You can see Buzz wearing his here: https://airandspace.si.edu/explore/stories/buzz-aldrin And the cal 861 was not worn on the Moon https://www.fratellowatches.com/52-years-ago-today-the-omega-speedmaster-became-the-moonwatch/ Which is to say, you should go back to the museum and wreck the place for being wrong
