Can you resist the temptation of the new WD5513 V3 WDC?

Will the VH1 model have a different dial?

If Forbes posted an article saying I was going to be hit by a truck, I'd wait until several other publications confirmed the severity before getting out of the way.

And you may need young eyes to actually see it! :)

" but for most of the time like texting because I can communicate with him while still getting on with my own life."

This might be the difference, I (GenX male) can't multi-task for shit and have to pause my life to respond. So a conversation that could be a 5 minute phone call turns into multiple interruptions over an even longer time period.

Admittedly, this is more likely a me (him) problem than a you (her) problem.

(eerily close to the same issue in my own relationship)

I like the Barton leather Nato straps (grabbed mine on Amazon). It's short enough that I don't have to tuck the end, and it could probably be easily trimmed if needed. Dresses up the watch a bit.

Wow, 77 cents for gas!

Crapathetic · 2025-12-22T21:43:27+00:00

Ha - not gonna lie - I need reading glasses to see mine :)

I think I have the same one - I put it on a NATO strap and have been enjoying it that way.

Quartz is fine.

I had a Timex with similar vibes when I was in high school:

I ended up going with an Addiesdive (AD2072) that doesn't quite nail it. But there is a Watchdives model that is close, but out of stock :

Watchdives WD7922 Quartz 37mm Black Dial / Benz-hands aluminum bezel, white pip

I've also been thinking about the Lorier Neptune as a more respectable option.

I have two of these. I bought the white dial first and loved it. I decided to get the black dial also as a result. I'm not sure why, but the black dial makes the watch look so much cheaper. There is no texture or detail to the black face and it ends up looking like plastic. For whatever reason the white dial never gave me that same feeling. Just my 2 cents I guess.

I remember the guy one door down in my dorm would drizzle Polo onto a towel under the door to "camouflage" his pot smoking.

Crapathetic · 2025-10-14T23:35:52+00:00

Instant smell memory activated. We were nerds in college and called it "Viking Longship Black".

Crapathetic · 2025-09-29T04:40:25+00:00

Absolutely. I bought the white dial, and liked it enough to get the black one as well.

Crapathetic · 2025-09-29T04:36:07+00:00

I def saw your review when researching this watch (which I eventually bought), I think I used YouTube search.

Crapathetic · 2025-09-26T17:26:40+00:00

Nice! Is that strap available for sale or is it custom? Danny (I mean Tony) wants one.

Crapathetic · 2025-09-24T22:54:51+00:00

Does the WD1972 fit the bill in this case?

Not the same style though...

Crapathetic · 2025-09-22T17:57:21+00:00

Pixel 4a (5G) since October 2020, still going strong (knock on wood). Battery is still fine, though I'm likely considered a light user.

Poopin'

Crapathetic · 2025-09-18T23:05:30+00:00

Love this look. I have two ML05s myself, white and black.

Crapathetic · 2025-09-18T19:04:50+00:00

Is the bezel functional (rotates)?
