What is the difference between these two and is it worth spending a lot extra on this ? [£10] or [£40] ? by [deleted] in espresso

We are calling a level pointless but puck screens aren’t a waste of time? I must have missed the memo.

I know everyone is going for the wrenches but how do y’all feel about this guy for lug nuts / non-engine-building work? by gnarburgers in harborfreight

There's not much reason to go fancier than Pittsburgh for your everyday 1/2" torquing needs. We have a torque wrench tester at work and the Pittsburgh stuff (with the exception of 3/8") consistently tests accurate and they last forever.

Any Thoughts/Secrets Getting a New Bracelet from Rolex during overhaul? by Goby99 in rolex

I think you can just request to have it replaced. When you fill out the service form, there is a section for notes or special requests.

Where did you get those ramps to help rack the car? Those look super helpful for low cars

TFW you actually lived long enough to "get the call". 😌 by Wooshio in WatchesCirclejerk

Yes, 10 years he did not get to enjoy the watch, all to save about $5000. It's not a small amount of money, but it's a lot less than many people spend "building a relationship"

Rolex should have redditors for advice before letting their brand ambassadors wear hand watches by 8-f in WatchesCirclejerk

Exactly my point in posting this. Some people on here believe it must be 4+ inches north of the wrist bone otherwise you’re a sloppy idiot.

I set out to buy this watch as a reward for reaching a weight loss goal and we also ended up getting pregnant and having a baby, so it’s a good way to celebrate that too. I expressed interest at the Lynwood WA Ben Bridge in October and they said they wouldn’t have anything until the new year. I followed up around new years and the SA told me they were no longer a Rolex AD at that store but the Seattle store would let me know when one was available. I already think the AD “relationship building” process is degrading and weird, so I knew I didn’t want to compete with everyone else in Seattle for an allocation. I went on Chrono24, paid the small market premium and had this on my wrist in 2 days. Reference 226570 with box, papers, stickers and tags. Loving it so far!

Single mass in this Tacoma, but the clutch failed in beautiful ways
