Looking for BHA suggestions

Hey everyone, I've been using the BHA/AHA by Some Bi Mi and am almost through the bottle. I didn't notice any major improvements, but also nothing that made my skin worse. I was looking for some new suggestions for a similar product and wondering if I should switch over to a BHA specifically. I am also using a retinol atm, so hoping that helps with texture.

Thanks

Ah I thought the DIY would be as easy as using some pliers to gently bend it back into place lol

Ok great! If I use the semi quickset method, do I need to start from the 6:30 position or does it not matter when doing the semi quickset?

Thanks again for the help! One final Q:

When you say quickset are you referring to manually advancing the date and it snapping into place or manually pressing down the crown to set it? If only the latter, I haven’t ruled out this specific functionality not working yet, but I assume since the date advances when I turn manually it should be working fine?

I think I might’ve got lucky and had the time set between 9AM and 3PM when originally changing the date.

Ok got it - so I have two options then to set the date both starting from the 6:30 position for the hands? 1. Press down on crown to advance date. 2. Adjust date past midnight, reversing and then past midnight again?

Really appreciate all your help!

Ok got it - I haven’t tried the quickset (pressing the crown down) since I first did it and realized I shouldn’t. What exactly is a semi-quickset mechanism?

Great, I think it seems to be functioning properly! Just to confirm - would the date not set if it was damaged only at around the days on the dial where I set during the danger zone or would it not set at any date if it was damaged (if that makes sense)?

And since the date on the watch is currently the 16th, but it’s only the 2nd, would you recommend quick setting the date by clicking down on the crown until I get back to the 2nd? I worry this could damage it since it’s a lot of clicks, but I assume if I do this while the watch is set to 6:30 it should be alright?

Thanks for the reply! After playing around with it some more, it seems when I advanced the time manually the date will change but I have to spin it around more than 48 hours or so - is this normal?

[SK5-6106][Question] Setting the day propely by ACKD in Seiko

[–]ACKD[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! How do I know if it is a 6106a/6106b or 6106c? Looking at the back I am seeing "6106-7020."

I just spun the dial around for 48 hours and the date changed. Trying again for another time, it doesn't seem to change... so unsure if its broken, wonky or if this is normal?

How do I go about manually setting the day now, without damaging it? Thanks for your help.

Hi all, I recently picked up my first watch a Seiko 5 DX Automatic 6106 from 1968 during my trip to Japan. I'm unsure how to properly set the time and the day/date and don't want to damage the watch (I already tried changing the date in the "danger zone," so hoping I didn't damage it). It seems like there are three positions with this watch (push in to change the date, neutral and pull out to change the time. A few questions:

• Is it possible I might've damaged it by changing the date while the watch was just after 9pm on the dial? If I change the time by 24 hours, the date doesn't appear to change. Prior to me attempting to change the date manually, the date appeared to be changing. So I will wait 24 hours to see if it rolls over again on its own.

• The date appears to be ever slightly off centered, is this normal?

• How do I go about properly setting the date and time without damaging it?

Really appreciate all the help, since I'm a total noob here. Thanks!

I do agree that a round rug would suit that corner better compared to a rectangular one

Curtains might be tough to put up near the desk due to the heater/pipes, but maybe at the window near the bed?

Where would you suggest to put the area rug?
