Once I always wanted (even after I got it)

Aug 26, 2016,09:15 AM
 

My Grand Seiko with "Snowflake" or "Snowdrift" dial.

Here happily showing 08:26:16 on  08 Month 26 Day 16 Year




All of ten seconds has gone by 8:26:26 and it's still beautiful



Then taking my eyes off the watch and inspecting the impenetrable jungle of my end-of-summer drought afflicted back yard, 
I see 4 different colors of bougainvillea all blooming at once and visible from my shooting vantage spot.











A different angle on "the Bloman" shot
