This is Timothy from Timmins in the North of Ontario, Canada. On the first pictures I saw of him, hew was in the middle of winter standing like here outside, while it was -30ºC! Isn't that the temperature you can throw up a hot cup of coffee and must duck for falling coffee ice cubes? Timothy worked in mines digging for valuable metals, until a motor accident busted him up bad. Wearing a G-Shock is not a luxury down there. He told me that many miners wear DW-5600 as disposable watches. If you can't read the LCD anymore through the scratches, you buy a new one. Well, those beaten up DW-5600 sure tell a story on their own! Tim knows I like sunglasses, so he took a second picture for me.
 

 

Very cool picture, specially when you know the picture was taken a day after snowfall, while it here in the Netherlands just reached 17ºC and everyone here says that spring is late.....
 

 

One of his other passions is his car. As he describes it himself: "here are some pics of my treasure, a completely restored 1968 Pontiac Firebird 400 muscle car.  I love to take the kids for a ride .... you should see the grin on their faces.  Well worth the $25,000 I spent to restore it".
