Watch Stunts, Fire Resistant Watches, And Custom Watches (And Straps)

This week on aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Rick, David, and Ariel are once again joined by Ed, who calls in from Osaka, Japan. David starts things off lamenting the lack of awesome promotional stunts from watch companies, and the team gets into the wildest antics they've seen and what they'd like to see. Then Ed and Ariel reflect on Dubai Watch Week, followed by Ed getting his first crack at guessing the price of a few Seikos. Ariel shares his thoughts about watch customization, David shares experience customizing a strap, and then things wrap up with a round of Hit, Miss, Maybe.
