Now that I changed the color of the strap, the name Cyborg is no longer appropriate. I shall call it Steele.
Let see how it fares with Garmin 25:
This is a less formal pairing. We'll see how it works. It does change my Mental Model. Now it is no longer Covert Mission. It had become The X FACTOR VARIATION. Their mission is to think out of the box. I will wear them during idea generation and creative thinking. Their scope also include R&D. Basically I expanded their scope of responsibility since they are more versatile. They are now my Think Tank.
Most of the time I am using the CITIZEN SOLDIER VARIATION. They are my administrators. Mostly I wear them in the afternoon/evening.
Yesterday I spend the whole day with the ARMY VARIATION. I am tempted to add the SPARTAN X VARIATION (now a SPARTAN Z) by I am fighting my urges. Actually if I don't think in pairs I can just buy the Casio Military. I had been wanting to buy that for a long time.
If I buy that I might as well buy the Luminox Sentry. It is the only Swiss Watch in my collection.
Jibrail and AlphaX64 were against the idea. So I just drop the idea for now.
G-Steel is already the best of the best in everything. I just end it at that. I don'r want to have too many watches. Most of the time I wear my CITIZEN SOLDIER VARIATION.
You know what is the issue here? I think Garmin 25 is out of place with Steele and I am crazy over the Casio Military
However I think that Garmin 25 should pair up with Casio Military. Steele should be on his own.
OK, I'll make Steele COVERT MISSION VARIATION and the other two SPARTAN Z VARIATION. Then I don't have to buy the Sentry. It is on battery and I have to adjust the date. I only thought of buying it as a pairing partner. Now that Steele can be independent (think out of the box), I solve the dilemma with as little as RM144 + 12. Still I don't need to tap my reserve. As a matter of fact I have RM50 as spare and RM100 to go into my reserve.
Let me see the combination again:
I think [I] this will be COVERT MISSION VARIATION and Steele can be the X FACTOR. It is not a variation. Rather it is a standalone unit. A free radical. I shall use it for thinking out of the box. Steele is an independent agent. A contractor rather than a team player. It works alone. A subject matter expert.
So I have the Strategic Planners, the ARMY VARIATION. I'll change that to the NAVIGATOR VARIATION:
And I have on the ground team and implementer, the SPECIAL OPS VARIATION:
This way I have a more comprehensive Mental Model and I got all the watches I ever wanted. Totally satisfied.
One thing I like to highlight here is in the future I put aside RM100 a month as spare and another RM100 as my reserve. Then I spend RM100 a month. That is a more balanced combination.
Now finally... sigh, after struggling for so long to justify the Casio Military, I managed to solve the puzzle. All it takes is to have a free radical to complete the picture. This is a very satisfying experience indeed. Everything falls in place. I don't need to get rid of Skipper and I don't need to add another expensive out of range addition.
With that I order the Casio Military. I shall call it Tactical.
