Just a guy doing a thing. I'm here mainly to share my watch of the day (#wotd) and my love of reading. My favorite genres are action adventure, pulp, military thrillers, and spy fiction.

Happy Friday! My #wotd & weekend companion is the Casio GShock DW5600UE. I do love my squares! This is the G Shock that started my love of the brand & I'm certain that I'm not done, yet!! #watches #digitalwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #GShock #DW5600UE #horology #horologist

Today's #wotd is the 40th Anniversary Infantry x Robotech Chronograph. It's team spirit day in the office and I'm repping my Steelers. Also, I like the Raiders, so note the Jolly Roger! #watches #analogwatches #militarywatches #aviatorwatches #horology

Happy Tuesday! The #wotd is my Casio F-91W on a NATO strap. I really just was feeling this watch today. Maybe I'm guilty of feeding into the hype, but damn, this watch is beyond cool to me! #watches #digitalwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #F-91W #horology #horologist

It's Monday! My #wotd is the G Shock DW6900. My current read involves a former SEAL and this watch has a close association with them, so I figured I'd coordinate the watch with the read. #watches #digitalwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #GShock #DW6900 #horology #horologist

Book #56 is Dungeon Crawler Carl. I was avoiding this book because it was so popular (I know, but I swear I'm not "that guy"), but some friends highly recommended it, so I decided to give it a shot. It's unhinged, crazy, pulpy, & nods to pop culture in a relatable way. I like it! #autumnofaction

Happy Friday! My #wotd & weekend companion is the Casio MRW 230H. I just felt like mixing up my watch choice. Also, I'm mixing it up with the audiobook version of Dungeon Crawler Carl. A friend recommended it. We'll see. #watches #analogwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #MRW230H #horology #horologist

Happy Thursday! My #wotd is the Soki Field Watch. I struggled with the decision to change the strap on it, but I also had another watch I wanted to switch the strap on. After a little consideration, you see where I landed! #watches #Chinesewatches #fieldwatch #analog #natostrap #horology #horologist

Book #55 is Lethal Tender, the 7th book in the Team Reaper series. This entry delivers all of the action that you'd expect, but with a larger degree of self reflection with one of the main characters. It humanizes him and gives the book an added degree of depth. #autumnofaction #reading #booksky

We made it! It's Fri-yay & my #wotd & weekend companion is my Casio F-91W on a NATO strap w/ a button compass. I usually go big with my weekend watches, but the F-91W punches above It's weight class, so, STILL BIG!! #watches #digitalwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #F-91W #horology #horologist

Book #54 is Thorn by Terrance Layhew. Its been a long time since I'd read a medieval swashbuckler. This was different, yet familiar enough that I'd give it a shot and I'm glad that I did. I recommend that if you're not usually into medieval swashbuckling adventure, give this a try! #autumnofaction

Happy Hump Day! My #wotd is the Casio 1200AEWHD, the Casio Royale! I'm realizing that I have specific purposes for this piece, which is good, but possibly limiting, too. I think I'll try is as a weekend companion soon. #watches #digitalwatches #Casio #1200aewhd #horology #horologist

Good morning! My #wotd is the MRW200H! I constantly have to resist the urge to get colors of this model. I think that this watch in other colors can create a completely different vibe, and that's not a bad thing, at all. #watches #analogwatches #tacticalwatches #Casio #horology #horologist

Book #53 is another G.I. Joe graphic novel, this time a collection of their silent missions. The 1st, which was issue #21 of the original series, was a paradigm shift for comics, storytelling, & the series. This collection is enjoyable, but I do recommend several readings! #autumnofaction #gijoe

Bluesman @bluesman1103.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Book #52 is the 4th G.I. Joe/Transformers Energon Universe prequel, Destro. It's a well written tale that features Destro, Cobra Commander, Tomas & Xamot, as well as a new character codenamed, Chameleon. There's one surprise that is in line with the world as we know it, but it's good overall. #gijoe

Bluesman @bluesman1103.bsky.social · 12/09/2026
Book #51 is The French Illusion by John Grisham. This is his attempt at the spy thriller & for me, it falls flat. I didn't care for the characters & there was little that would actually qualify this as a spy novel. Grisham fans will like this, but it's not spy novel. #autumnofaction #booksky #books

The #wotd is my Lenqin A8 LN0550 w/ the NATO strap & button compass. I'm still amazed at the quality for it being a budget piece. Remember, watch collecting doesn't need to be an expensive hobby! #watches #Chinesewatches #analogwatches #fieldwatches #tacticalwatches #natostrap #horology #horologist

Happy Tuesday! My #wotd is the TPW model #K7006 Air Force Field Watch w/OD Green with a red stripe NATO strap & button compass. I do enjoy this strap, but I'm seriously considering switching it. We'll see how that goes. #Chinesewatches #fieldwatches #analogwatches #horology #horologist

Book #50 is Cold Kill by Andrew Warren. This is the sequel to Devil's Due & addresses the fallout from the events in the previous book. This is a gritty revenge tale that mixes elements of The Count of Monte Cristo and The Most Dangerous Game. It was a truly exciting read! #autumnofaction #booksky

Book #49 is Devil's Due by Andrew Warren. This is a Thomas Caine prequel that's now published with it's sequel, Cold Kill, as Hell & Ice. I'm following this book with Cold Kill, but if you're looking for Devil's Due, it's not available. But, this was an enjoyable and fast read! #autumnofaction

Book #48 is a flash fiction story by a new to me author, Alex Cage. Actually, I have a couple of his books on my Kindle. After reading this, his stuff is moving up! This is flash fiction, so it is short, hard & fast, like a shot of whiskey! The action is well-written # I want more! #booksky

Book #47 keeps me in Quarry's world, but this time as a graphic novel, Quarry's War by Max Allan Collins. This was a unique experience because #1 it's a graphic novel & #2 the pages alternate between 1969 & 1972. Sounds like a lot, but it works. I think I'm a Quarry convert! #summeroftrash #booksky

Bluesman @bluesman1103.bsky.social · 29/08/2026
Book #46 is Quarry's Choice by Max Allan Collins. This is the 12th book in the series but the 2nd chronologically. There's enough crossing & doublecrossing in this book that I wasn't sure if anyone was legit. Quarry's smartass attitude lightened what could have been a dark tale. I liked it! #booksky

Book #45 is Longarm & the Loggers, the 6th book in the series. You definitely get what you'd expect from a Longarm book, but this one definitely has more introspection and heart to it. In discussing it with someone, they said this a a great one to start the series with & I totally agree. #booksky

Book #44 is Zane Carrington by @writermillhouse.bsky.social, the 3rd of the Stormgate Press Quick Reads. This was my 1st Zane Carrington solo adventure & proved to be a ideal follow up to The Underwater Menace. The story is action packed while at the same time being deeply emotional. #pulp #booksky

Book #43, Captain Hawklin & The Underwater Menace by @writermillhouse.bsky.social takes us on an adventure that not only involves Steven's past but gives a glimpse into the future. Although it was a slower start, it was so worth it once the parts got moving. This is a truly fun read! #pulp #booksky
