Hello everyone,
I'm sorry that I haven't been around lately but my latest obsession has turned to watches (why can't I just be content!!!)
I was thinking about fragging some of my zoos to raise a little cash for frivolous items. Perhaps $10/frag?
I haven't taken any photos lately but can take some shots if people are interested - if not I will probably just sell a kidney :razz:.

Cheers,

- Chad

Hey Rob,

Fortunately, I don't have really flashy or expensive taste like some watch collectors (yet :razz:). What I really like is a watch that looks good, works good, and is good value. For that reason, I have it narrowed down to two watches.

For everyday use and work, the G-shock GW5600. I like the 1980's retro looks but it would be nice to have a durable watch that is also solar powered and synchronizes to the atomic clock in Colorado every day.

For something a little dressier and more unique, I would like the Orient 200m Dive watch (nicknamed the "Mako" by some watch geeks):

Sorry, not a lot of info on the net. Orient is one of the big three Japanese companies (with Seiko and Citizen) but are not as well known today because they have focused on continuing to make automatic, mechanical movements instead of going digital. Their accuracy and durability has been compared to some of the big name divers like Rolex and Omega. Again I like it because it's a pretty watch but not flashy.

Ok, in case I haven't lost everyone, here are some photos of some zoos:

Peach centers:

Bright greens in daylight (with the brightest green palythoas I have ever seen):

Same ones under actinic T5's:

Can see some different coloured greens, the peach, and orange and green centers (some call them 'boy scouts' I think):

Also a couple riccordia frags (kinda plain) and some gsp (really bright) if there's anyone out there who doesn't have it yet.

Here is a daylight shot of some red or purple ones I have:

Same under actinics:

I was going to wait a bit to grow these out more, or if people really want them now I might charge $15 / frag.




If it is at all possible, I would like to avoid selling all the frags of one colour to one person. That way we can share the love and no one misses out :razz:.

Thanks for the interest,

- Chad
