I love my MM300. For a 44mm watch it wears well. What are your thoughts on case shape and comfort?

About spring here.. it was -2 during the day just over 2 weeks ago and -10 at night. Now it is almost summer temperatures here, crazy crazy.

Well, I find I’m wearing it on the silicone strap more these days ; for me it’s a little to clunky on the bracelet.
The height of the case is fine but it gets stuck on the cuff of my winter jacket;
(Hopefully I won’t be needing that darn jacket to much longer !)

Anyway, I have to say it’s fast becoming my favourite watch to wear , and it keeps great time - about 2-3 seconds fast daily.

Wear yours in good health!
Cheers 🍻

Welcome! Looks great; congratulations
I too own a DJ 41 simply because the only other offering of that configuration was a 28mm and my old eyes couldn’t fathom the squinting Lol

As they say, wear it in good health - enjoy!

Hello everyone. It's been a long time since I've been coming around here. I read back some pages & lots of acquisitions / changes to your collections. Sad to read about those that are sick & those caregivers that have to live these challenges every day. My heart goes out to you all. Not one single day goes by that I don't remember my mother in one way or another, even if just a brief thought. As for me, I've been keeping pretty well. Bought that damn blue dial 116200 I had been lusting over for ever. LOL Bought that in April of last year actually. I have to post some pics & update my watch list. Been really happy with it & it does get a lot of wrist time. I've been a bit too engrossed in my other hobby, jewelry. It's in a lot of ways, more expensive than buying a watch. As for the weather, I AM SO READY FOR WINTER TO BE OVER! Too much snow & too cold cold. This week we're having some mild weather but I won't get too optimistic. When I see the trees starting to bloom I'll breath easier. LOL

I joined TRF then bought...a Tumi purse today! How did that happen?!

What have you purchased recently with the help of your fellow TRF enablers?

For me I had a beautiful walk through the streets of Orlando early this morning. Sunny and nice was about 70F going up to 75F. My morning drink is not coffee but Diet Coke. I don’t ever recall trying coffee. Although Michelle likes it and I enjoy boiling the water in the morning to get it started.

Weather here has been on and off. Great this past week, but rain in the forcast for the next few days, which isnt so good, when we have a planned 'Move Back' into our home, of furniture etal...since our water leak on the 25Dec evening.
Been a Long haul in the 'restoration' business that I'm in. Did A lot of the work myself. - Hoping for restitution...!!

Gorgeous, I love that SS model! I'm a huge UNC fan and those colors are gorgeous. If I didn't love mine so much, I would've had that one...hmm, maybe that will be my next one haha.
