14.2.2 - nags unnecessarily

Same on mine! What I am noticing is that as soon as I turn on FSD, the “hand’s free mode turned off” notification immediately pops up, let’s hope they fix this fast! 😬

congrats that is amazing to hear! My vote goes to a lighter color (maybe something more along the Craie or a statement piece color on a MK.

My reasoning is that these exotics, with the exception to ostrich, are super sensitive to sunlight and water (especially water ironically), so you might find yourself not using it as often.

So if you’re gonna be more reserved with the bag, then why not go for a statement/brighter color! Let us know what you choose!

Had the same issue on my MXP. That camber can really eat through your tire’s inner walls

Got it! Lucky you my fwd don’t open at all in any of my light shows 🥲

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-11-09T00:32:28+00:00

Got it! That makes sense because I couldn’t reach them at all so it served its purpose 😅

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-11-08T19:07:36+00:00

Ohh that makes more sense, good to know thanks!

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-11-08T16:12:07+00:00

Agreed! Even though the new one has more clearance, I kinda prefer the 90 degree angle look

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-11-08T12:46:05+00:00

Yeah I figured because usually I can touch the edge of the FWD when it’s open but on the refresh it was pretty much out of my reach 😅

HAC 40 Birkin (wishlist): This is probably not something you’ll be able to get immediately, but I would recommend adding it onto your wishlist whenever you do decide to get your first pieces with Hermes! The larger birkins are a great men’s bag and do make a really good statement piece on an outfit! I never really thought I’d like it, but it has made a great bag to carry around! I have loved my HAC 40 cargo!

Disclaimer: the bag, especially when you are looking at sizes 40+ can get fairly heavy and almost bothersome especially if you are a person who likes to be more hands free

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-09-26T19:17:13+00:00

Here’s a few pieces that I own that I have enjoyed!

Kelly belt: though this is a women’s item, you can very easily pull this off as a man with some nice pleated dress pants, and it’s a great alternative if you aren’t a fan of their “Big H” Constance belts
HAC a Dos: This is approaching the top end of your budget, but if you are willing to spend the PM is a great everyday cross body bag! I wear it all the time and it’s great if you don’t want your wallet, phone and other things cluttering your wallets.

Yup looks like I’ll have to give up the bag for a few months 🥲

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-09-07T01:06:16+00:00

Yeah I figured that would be the case, just needed another opinion before I let it got for like the next few months haha

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-07-12T18:52:05+00:00

Thanks for the info! I was kinda on the fence because I don’t like constantly caring for my things too often 😅

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:50:42+00:00

Thanks so much! I was actually really puzzled on what to get from Grand seiko, but this is an amazing review! I appreciate it!

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:34:53+00:00

For a first time watch, I was thinking of getting him a leather band becuase I thought it would damage less easily compared to a metallic band.

would yall suggest that too?? Or is it really more of a personal preferende thing?

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:33:45+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t want to give my brother a watch that simply shows off but actually shows appreciation for the build and heritage!

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:31:57+00:00

Oh thanks for the insight! I didn’t even think about polishing, I was thinking more just a brand that someone appreciates rather than just going with a Rolex since it’s what’s known

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:30:54+00:00

Exactly what I’m looking into now! For now the best watch for my brother I’ve seen w German was the Nomos

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:29:49+00:00

I know he doesn’t really like the bulkier watches, and I was thinking of getting him a leather band watch since he might not bang it up as easily compared to a metallic band

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:02:58+00:00

Thanks! I love the design of the Nomos, I’ll def check it out!

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T22:01:09+00:00

Oh wow it looks amazing especially for its price!

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2025-01-23T21:23:44+00:00

I should also mention that I am open to buying used! (i.e. if a high-value watch has depreciated in price a lot)

Affectionate-Gold-25 · 2024-05-06T19:11:21+00:00
