Just ran into a guy with an awesome dog, took some photos, and handed out a business card marketing my pet portrait business.

BTW everyone, I do pet portraits in addition to shredding hard on guitar and using products by

and my #nostrwatch and #xavierscraftworkanddesign watches. I provide proof of work photos during the process, proving that I’m not using AI.

One thing I love doing here on Nostr is reviewing cool stuff made by real people. This is fun for several reasons:

1. The products found on Nostr are verifiably made right where they say they are. Frequently, plebs even post photos of the process of making them.

2. There’s a sene of pride in the craftsmanship that goes into making and selling things here.

3. You can reach out directly to the person that made your purchase. Last week, I happened upon

   npub14fg29vd…ws8hxn

   and discovered a totally new (to me) product, hard cologne. Like a lot of stuff on Nostr, it’s a familiar concept, but made more efficient, practical, durable, better quality, and priced in sats.

In this case, the concept that everyone loves is smelling awesome.

I had never heard of hard cologne before, but its on Plebeian Market with very detailed descriptions of the available scents, so I picked Sovereign Wealth because I figured I couldn’t go wrong with something that ended up smelling like coffee.

The theory behind this product is so simple and intuitive that I couldn’t believe I’d never seen it made before.

Basically: traditional colognes are basically fancy spray bottles. As soon as the liquid cologne lands on you, it begins evaporating or sliding off if you’re on a hot date or shredding hard on your guitar.

To compensate for this, liquid colognes are made so strong that your nose is blasted with dude smell right away and get numbed. Of course everyone will notice that You’re Wearing Cologne.

Hard Cap’s product works like this: slide open the metal tin, rub your fingers on the waxy block of cologne for a moment, then simply apply a bit to a pressure point, and you’re ready to rock. Its beeswax base holds the scent in and you are set like a watch.

The scent isn’t overwhelming, but it’s definitely complex; you’ll get used to it because it just works. You’ll smell it right when you slide open the tin, but after you put it on, you go on with your day and you smell great.

Here was my field test. Hard Cap claims these colognes last for several hours, which is a big ask even for eau de parfums, which are so initially strong that you forget you smell like the Mens Fragrance section. Not to mention nice ones are usually $100+ in fiat.

Back to my test.

I put a little bit behind each ear, went about my day, and waited four hours before asking someone how I smelled. Instead of the “oh what cologne are you wearing?” I got a sort of puzzled-but-smiling look and “wow I don’t know what that is but you smell GOOD. What IS that?”

That, in my opinion, is a much cooler reaction than just a nod to your taste in men’s fragrances.

This stuff is so simple, just a few ingredients, no 5-syllable chemical additives, handmade, and the price is right. It even comes in a metal tin half the size of a chewing gum package so you can toss it in your EDC bag and it’s wax, so it won’t spill anywhere.

I just won a tin of Scarcity in a contest by Hard Cap and it smells completely different from Sovereign Wealth, but it smells fantastic as well. I can’t wait to see this stuff in action. Go spend a few sats and treat yourself to one of these. They’re worth it. #Review #goldfishthumb1

#proofofwork for another variation on the #nostrwatch
This one is a #minimalist variant.

Hand finished the dial, included the second hand as well as the date wheel. Removed the hour markers on the dial.

Leather strap shown is mine. I will help pair your bespoke watch with a great strap of your choosing as part of the individual service with this option.

This blank slate could make a great background for a one-of-a-kind piece of artwork, a logo, et cetera.

I can make a vector version of just about anything you can think of, work with you to develop your idea to perfection, and have it laser engraved onto a dial like this. This one was finished at 914852.

Sats only.

Here are my #proofofwork photos for the assembly of a Nostr Watch.

When you order one from me, you’re not purchasing a unit from a factory. It’s put together by me, a humble pleb, for you.

This one is the only 916068 in the world, and it’s mine.

Order your Nostr Watch for 200k sats.

The Nostr watch looks good on any strap! (silicone strap is included, but I can include an additional great strap as well for an extra charge, depending on the strap material)

WATCH ANNOUNCEMENT! Since I began my journey in Nostr, I have met an amazing group of people, a number of them in person. I have been planning for this moment for a long time.

Small businesses and entrepreneurs are not only encouraged by the Nostr community, but I know more than a few that thrive in the Bitcoin-backed economy that has developed organically here.

They bring not only their enthusiasm but genuine and verifiable knowledge of their craft. The appreciation that is rewarded them comes not just from likes and follows, but by actual support of their businesses with Bitcoin.

I am thankful to the wonderful folks who have encouraged me as I’ve posted to #artstr and have supported me by paying with sats. This financial support has allowed me to bring this project to life.

Now, I am excited to present to you the Nostr watch.

With simplicity and functionality in mind, I began with the timeless classic Casio dive watch model I wanted since I was a kid.

This was THE watch to have in the 1990s, when my friends and I rode our bikes to the arcade to play Mortal Kombat with our friends. When James Bond still wore a Rolex.

This was a time before cell phones, before social media, before AI-generated music. Your watch told you the time, not how many calories you burned on your way to the neighborhood cookout.

This watch has no alarms, no digital display, and no excess complications which could distract you from living your real life. There is no heart rate monitor on this watch, no WiFi or Bluetooth connectivity, no software to update, no reminder to stand up if you’re sitting down.

Want the time? Look at this watch.
Want more? Go look at a phone.

I designed the dial, which features Bitcoin logos at every hour, the Nostr ostrich at twelve o’clock, the word NOSTR at three o’clock, and NOTES and OTHER STUFF TRANSMITTED BY RELAYS at six o’clock.

A friend of mine engraves the dials for me, and I assemble the watch myself. It has a 44mm stainless steel case, is water resistant to 200 meters, has a screw-down locking crown, a 120-click unidirectional rotating bezel, and a screwdown caseback.

Lug width is 22mm, which can accommodate a variety of straps. The watch comes with a standard 22mm silicone strap, which can be easily changed.

I lightly sand the caseback and engrave the block height when it was completed. Then I package it up with a handwritten note signed by me and send it to you.

The battery will last a couple years, after which it’s easy to get changed. There are no proprietary parts. You can change the battery yourself with one tool if you want.

The watch is 200k sats plus shipping. I also offer a bespoke watch dial design service where I create custom dial artwork to your specifications and have the artwork engraved. In this case, your watch artwork will be used only for your watch.

This one-on-one design collaboration between myself and the customer is available for an additional 200k sats.

Thank you, Nostr, for helping me to realize this dream that I have had since I began my interest in watches.

Now that the clear coat is dry I was able to get a decent photo in the daylight.

Dropped off the skateboard deck today at Classic Electric tattoo shop.

The art show will be October 4 at Nola in Frederick MD. DM me if you want to meet up.
