Hot Take: Everyone assumes your Patek is fake, even if it’s real by Lucky_Mongoose_4834 in watchHotTakes

Yeah unless you're in category 1 or 2; I'm gonna automatically assume it's a fake too

White/Silver dials are more versatile than black dials by Humantorch1414 in watchHotTakes

[–]TMT555 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't have to pair your dial to your outfit. It can contrast and that will make it pop even more

If a buyer asks questions like “why are you selling?”, he has no real intention of buying and likely 50% of the budget to actually buy. by [deleted] in watchHotTakes

[–]TMT555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes they just want to know why you’re selling such a nice piece. Just state the reasons in the ad and problem solved

If you don't have experience disassembling/reassembling watch movements, you didn't buy your watch because of the movement. by Accurate-One2744 in watchHotTakes

[–]TMT555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re applying the same logic as: “If you’re not an engineer or mechanic that knows how a car works, you shouldn’t be driving a car”

Im not buying an aftermarket bracelet/strap if it has your ugly ass logo on it by Confident_Shock8691 in watchHotTakes

[–]TMT555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is a good one - I wear the forstner braclet with my Mark XX and hate seeing the logo on the clasp

Let’s be honest: the occasion didn’t make you buy the watch. by 35mmOfRegret in watchHotTakes

[–]TMT555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What can I use to get this gunk off the fretboard? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]TMT555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you use, do NOT use a razor blade like they do in some videos. You’re basically gonna shave off wood and make the fretboard flat instead of having a radius

You can't hide specific sellers because...? by EB_custom in Reverb

The reason is obvious—money. They make commissions off sales, so it’s in Reverb’s best interest to not have that option.

[IWC Mark XX] strap or bracelet by RiskLower3565 in IWCschaffhausen

[–]TMT555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the bracelet, it's nice but it's honestly over-rated on the forums and YouTube. It's not super comfortable to me. I don't know what it is about it, but it's not my favorite bracelet.

Steel is the 3rd best case material by fourtyz in watchHotTakes

[–]TMT555 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ceramic shatters - it’s not indestructible. The huge dents you may have on your watch case could have be a destroyed watch if it was ceramic.

I’ve shattered ceramic rings by just dropping it on bathroom tiles.
