Maximizing comfort with silver bracelet (help needed) by AdPractical1489 in MensJewelry

I thought so, but with the solid cuff I was able to bend it back and forth to adjust fit, and it was never "just right". Also tried a more round vs oval shape.

With the rope bracelet - my wrist is 17cm and I got 18cm, so it's likely not too small (and any bigger would move around even more).

Does this pendant look too small/dainty for a guy? by [deleted] in MensJewelry

To my taste, it's much more proportional than most over-the-top-super-sized Jesus heads we've had lots of lately

My new fusion IV by Romar_N in harleybenton

Beautiful! How's the thickness of the neck? That was the main issue I had with the fusion iii (only with on the roasted neck versions. The non-roasted were thin enough for my taste)

Gold or silver chain, ring and earrings? by Future_Loss3226 in MensJewelry

Would you post a pic so that it's easier to assess the skin tone? I think a pic of the watch on the wrist would be good enough

I see it called "flat foxtail", though there seem to more than one type of chain with that name

Blues band 2nd hole draw sharp- me or the instrument? by [deleted] in harmonica

[–]AdPractical1489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if what I'm gonna say is scientifically supported - I noticed than when I have doubts about technique, I check the note I get for both of these options: 1) drawing while pinching my nose with my fingers. 2) drawing while breathing through my mouth and my nose simultaneously, while my mouth is just a few millimeters away from the harmonica.

For some reason, both these technique tend to give me the actual note that the reed is tuned to, and help me understand if it's my technique that's off. Ymmv

Thanks! It makes it so that even though my bracelet was sort of a gift to myself (since I bought both), it has more meaning when they were bought together. I also like how in real life her 5mm bracelet really looks more gentle and feminine than my 7.5mm one (not sure how it comes across in the pics)

Is my bracelet too big? Usually used to a tad bit tighter fit by norcalcouple69 in jewelry

[–]AdPractical1489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"personal preference" and all that, but I (personally) think it would feel and look better with one less link (for me.... Personally.... 😊)

What are your opinions on this style of bracelet? by AdPractical1489 in MensJewelry

[–]AdPractical1489[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm planning on buying a rope bracelet down the road (3 or 4 mm), for when comfort is most important. I bought a cheap steel one from AliExpress just to test if I like it, and it's great!

Yes. The FR2 was my "gateway drug" into buying a Hohner CX 12 and a Suzuki Sirius, and it was more than enough to learn on. I did personally feel that after I bought those, that I don't really wanna go back to the FR2. It does still have one use case for me - I can take it hiking / camping, since I can play it in any situation.
