    The real question. Why does 9 come before 8 in this watch?

    I’ve been watching Rome lately so this feels apt. I like your Saxon helmet, too.

      I have watched the entirety of Rome at least 20 times. James Purefoy is brilliant as Mark Antony.

      One of the most underrated shows ever. Also one of the more historically/culturally accurate depictions of the Ancient Rome of the time. The guy who plays Titus Pullo is also amazing. Did you know that Titus Pullo and Lucius Vorenus were actual guys in Caesar’s army in Gaul? There is a passage about them in Caesar’s Gallic Wars.

    Pretty sweet! I love that mosaic and the details. What’s the machinery you’re using? Do you also make your own cases?

      Btw, just recently I spotted an album cover that could make for an extremely unsettling dial: Kariyan, Lovers left alone. Hopefully one day I’ll manage to have it done.

    Out of all of the watches in history, this is one of them.

    I like it, but why not roman numerals to go with the theme?

    I thought about it all the time in the mid-2010s

    Nowadays, though, I’ve moved on to being [fascinated with tribal elements] instead(https://www.hottopic.com/product/wwe-roman-reigns-roman-empire-t-shirt/10551657.html)

    I have been liking your Roman collection. Makes me sad that I will not be able to own any of these beautiful watches. Even if you are selling, just by looking at these watches, I can tell it would be way out of my price range.
