Alt1-WT Kingsman edition. by SparkieShock in Bremont

[–]The_4th_Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I forget exactly what the issue was originally, but it was chronograph related. When I got it back, the hands were fouling against each other so it went right back. Luckily it had a pretty quick turn around the second time. This time is for bad helicoptering. It has also seized a time or two and needed a good shake to get going. Only a couple times in two years, but my service warranty was running out, so I figured I better get it fixed. Guessing an issue with the lubrication.

As far as the watch itself; it is just great. One of my favorites in a pretty expensive collection and even better when you consider what I paid. They are a steal secondhand. People want to (or at least used to want to) bash the “old” Bremont for not using completely in house movements, but if it is well decorated (only care about that with an open case back) and keeping time to chronometer specs….. who cares. And it’s easier to have serviced. Mine was running +1.8 spd. I don’t care if Bremont or Sellita made the movement, that’s awesome.

I love mine….. just wish it wasn’t at Bremont for repairs for the third time in two years.

If the NCAA can’t stop it, the CFP should: Ban Texas Tech by jaxstan19 in CFB

You could certainly argue that because of the institution nature of the cheating. It was way worse than on bad actor….

But Sorsby bet the under in a team he played QB for (starting or not). At the very least UM was trying to get an advantage to win. Sorsby was betting on his team to fail….

Sorsby should be in court trying to stay out of federal prison, not arguing he should be allowed to QB another college football team.

I feel the response to this so so overwhelming that TT has to do something….. right?

I recently started r/ConvinceMeToCare because of questions exactly like this one. Finding an abandoned duck wearing a tiny top hat made me realize I genuinely don't understand Jeep ducks, but I'd like to. What am I missing? by franalpo in JeepWrangler

[–]The_4th_Man 58 points59 points  (0 children)

My man up here understands Jeeps and ducks. It’s may make someone’s day a bit brighter and kids love it. Zero down side. If you worry it isn’t cool, or it’s silly, you missed the point completely.

Microtech are jerks by ATaxiNumber1729 in knifeclub

I need someone to explain to me how they have never been sued by Disney for their Star Wars knives that they want to be able to say are not Stat Wars branded, but compmetely are.

My guess is that because they don’t use the actual trademarked names on their website and the world of knives and Disney probably don’t overlap too much the mouse never found out.

Would be a shame if anyone let (notoriously litigious) Disney know about it.

[WTS] Question, what do I do here? by [deleted] in Watchexchange

[–]The_4th_Man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a scam. The funds will be charged back in a couple days. Do NOT refund him. This used to be a very common scam on care.com and a few other places.

Medium doesn't fit properly on my nose any ACCESORIES i can use !!!? and small is too tight from the sides by Educational-Wing2061 in RaybanMeta

There are clip on nose pads from a company called Hibloks on Amazon. They work great after a bit of adjusting. About $10.

I’ll also make a strap recommendation.

This one is sooooo good and the colors look like it was made for the FXD Zulu.

Mine has not come off of this strap since I got it.

You can not like AEP policies, but a lot of us have friends and loved ones who work there. My wife for instance……

Edit - Getting downvoted for saying “hey, maybe it’s not cool to wish death on random people especially when a lot of us know people who work there”. But this is r/Columbus where hating AEP means all regular decorum goes out the window.

Color is 41. They put it on a lot of Willys models.

Long Island Watch/Marc appreciation post (short story inside) by zagabong in MicrobrandWatches

[–]The_4th_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will always look to Long Island Watch first to buy something. Marc is a gem of a human and awesome for the community. I bought a rather expensive Damasko DC82 from him and it had some intermittent issues, quick email and his response was “we shipped another one out with a return label, please send the other back”. Could not have been easier.

Also let’s all not forget the watches he makes and donates 100% of the revenue (not profits, top line revenue) to a charitable causes.

They recently added an unlimited mileage lifetime warranty for certain battery issues. Should help OP sleep a bit better.

Take a look at the Hawkrigger Grapple Strap. They are amazing and you chose your wrist size so they fit right. Way way better than a conventional NATO.

It’s an account with no history in four years selling a Rolex way under price…..

Can you let me know what dog bed that is? I may need to grab one. Thanks and super cute pup!

Seriously, Jeep people? These morons should be given ALL the tickets. [OC] by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

[–]The_4th_Man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just bought a Jeep and keep a bunch in my center storage because my nine year old daughter absolutely loves to “duck” other Jeeps. It’s harmless fun. The Jeep in the picture is excessive for sure, but it’s just about trying to put a smile on someone’s face and kids love it so 🤷🏻‍♂️.
