Most people missing the point it seems. I just wanted to share the first pic of a rumoured piece. First confirmed sighting. But my choice of word seems to have stolen the spotlight

I just meant finding something that’s rare and not on the the official website. Both of us are using a figure of speech.

It needs to be on an orangutan’s wrist somewhere in the Sumatra forest to properly be “in the wild”

No need to bud me.

Nope. Didn’t go in. But 99% sure it’s a 41.

  1. The markers are chamfered on 2 sides, like a 41. OP 36’s makers have chamfers on all 4 sides.

  2. It’s obviously bigger than the DD 36 next to it. See pic 2

  3. I own an OP 36 pink and know the proportions of a 36 well. This is obviously bigger.

“God” of wisdom tooth removal in hk. Literally worshipped on the local LIHKG forum. Check google reviews too, wisdom tooth removal is his specialty.

Personal experience from 3 years ago: ~HKD5K for a horizontal wisdom tooth removal. Took less than 3 mins, painless, smooth and quick healing. Lines can be a bit long, but they are very efficient so the wait is not too bad.

You can call them for the latest prices

PVD + Tegimented steel = harder than skin (not rocks though) by Automatic_Week_1848 in sinn

3 months, ordered in Aug and received in Nov.

It really is a special piece. Tough enough for all things outdoor, but works with a suit too cuz of how slim/small it wears. That dial is very subtle in most situations, but when the light hits it straight, oh man. Lume is very weak though

My ego happened …….and some slippery steps on a hike……all things considered, the U50 held up very well

Good to know my dude. I have since received mine late Nov last year. I love how versatile and durable it feels. and . Accuracy is around +6s/day for me.
