I've been working on various themed carries. Here's the first of a few I'm going to put out. This is the red carry.

I based most of the items I chose off of the two pieces from Karas Kustoms. Obviously they use the same anodizing process on all of the aluminum they machine (though it can vary slightly from batch to batch), so I assumed the pen and top would be the most similar in color...everything else would need to match them.

I already had the Alox, and luckily, it was very close in color. The Olight has a slightly pinkish color about it, but under the right light, the pinks washed away, leaving a nice, deep red. Lastly, was the watch. I knew I was going to get one of these new Weekenders, but I also knew I'd have to find a wristband to match. I located this one in an Etsy store and it arrived as nearly the perfect shade of matching red nylon!

EDIT: Here's the link to the Etsy listing for the wristband - https://www.etsy.com/listing/166860884/military-nato-vintage-style-retro-nylon?ref=shop_home_active_1

Enjoy the red!

It's pretty neat how you managed to match the colour for each piece. But I think what it is even neater is the shot itself. It really came out well. Oh and by the way, the gear is cool too :-)
Chris Szaroleta ·
Haha! Very nice, Marc. Believe it or not, this shot was my first to be taken inside a light box. Being able to control light is so key in getting a good shot, so I really appreciate your praise, good sir!

Thanks, Jambon!

My OCD is thanking you, this is just amazing. I would love something similar to this in orange.
Chris Szaroleta ·
Thanks, Dave! Someone on here, a long time ago, had a very sexy orange based carry. Over time, I wouldn't mind having themed carries in a multitude of colors.

What are your thoughts on the weekender and the pen? I have both of these on my want list.
Chris Szaroleta ·
Hey kwelsh! The pen writes smooth and you can tell it's bomb proof in hand. It's maybe a hair bigger than I prefer, circumference wise, but nothing I can't overcome. I don't have the world's biggest hands. The Weekender is great! Everything you've come too expect from a normal Weekender, but with the Chronograph and a bigger face.

I love the look of this but I also love the simplicity and minimalism. I've tended to just grow my carries and find excuses to carry more, not less (I've got 3 different flashlights, 2 pens, 3 multi-tools).

I've got the functionality that I want... but it certainly isn't minimal!
Chris Szaroleta ·
I know exactly what you mean, John!
