Go Commando Show – Episode 33 Featuring SGM Rob Trivino (USA, Ret)
March 7th, 2018Rob Trivino is a Retired US Army Special Operations Veteran and owner of Evergreen Mountain LLC.
I purchased his book, “A Warrior’s Path : Lessons In Leadership” when it came out. It was a valuable read, even though I’m retired. I gave it to one of my sons who also plans a career in the military and hope that he finds its wisdom valuable throughout his life.
Trivino was interviewed on the most recent episode of the Go Commando Show.
I don’t often share other’s work like this without some form of partnership, but I thought it was so important for my readers that I obtained permission to share this episode of the Go Commando Show.
Go Commando Show is the creation of retired Marine Fred Galvin. The whole series is worth a listen.
High Angle Solutions – Elliot Brown Watches
March 7th, 2018Elliot Brown watches aren’t like other so-called sports watches.
Ian Elliot and Alex Brown share 20+ years of unique watch building knowledge from the world of extreme sports which is how they were able to create the worlds most rugged “tool” watches.
Working on the coast and enjoying just about every land and water based coastal sport was the catalyst to develop a range of watches that not only function in extremes but also look great with a suit or uniform.
This Canford 202-004, like all other Elliot Brown watches has survived at test at 200m in water before being declared fit for use. It features a neat inner timing bezel operated via the upper crown and even when in the our or adjust position, the lower time and date adjust crown is still fully water proof.
The Swiss movement is housed inside a unique steel housing, suspended on a series of elastomer dampers to give immense shock protection. The highly legible dial and hands feature a Superluminova coating that will glow for up to 8 hours.
The solid and beautifully detailed case back is bolted down for a perfect seal with multiple surfaces to minimize the contact patch with the wrist in warmer conditions.
2.8mm thick hardened and tempered crystal protects the dial with an anti-reflective coating applied to the inner surface and the strao retaing bars are solid screw in items that will stand any test.
This is one mean watch and it’s no surprise Elliot Brown are finding favour amongst many military groups.
