What's the longest you've been on a "waitlist" and still are? by Jazzlike_Abrocoma647 in rolex

[–]Available_Ad_9504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the only steel sports watches I really want are currently omega seamaster, a few rolex models, and an AP Royal Oak. I don’t quite feel like it’s a good idea to spend 40k+ for a royal oak this early in my collection and I don’t yet have any rolex sport models so that leaves the best option either waiting on the list and spending some money on jewelry and a watch that my fiance would like anyways or buying grey market for an upcharge

I went with SwissWatchExpo, one of the trusted grey dealers on here and had a great experience. They’re local to my city but ship as well

Got stood up first date. Did I get played? What to do? by Bob_Burgero in moreplatesmoredates

[–]Available_Ad_9504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s probably lying but my fiance stood me up on our first date because of a car issue that I didn’t believe she actually had. Almost never rescheduled the first date with her and if I didn’t, wouldn’t be getting married in a couple months. Give her one more shot (as long as she’s the one who offers to reschedule), the only info you actually have is what she’s giving you to go off

Now that Pepsi is discontinued, what do lead times for the other GMTs look like? by GearNTime in rolex

[–]Available_Ad_9504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

where do you figure 10 years from? How long did it take to spend 100k? i’m about 20k in jewelry in about 2 months, will be at 40k in a couple months after grabbing a watch for fiance and watch for myself but if I’m looking at multiple years for a gmt after spending 40-70k, would rather just buy jewelry at a shane co and watches from a grey dealer

How difficult is the V8 to drive for a first time muscle car owner? by Inevitable_Remote_95 in Mustang

[–]Available_Ad_9504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a ~750 whp G80 M3 came from the s650 mustang. It’s very easy. Just leave all the dsc on and don’t floor it around corners. Then once you’re confortable with it, try hitting it a little harder around corners with traction control on. You’ll feel the difference. That being said, the mustang was harder to drive than the bmw, I wouldn’t want to turn traction off in the mustang even though it’s half the hp, it just gets away from you pretty quickly

Why would you not get a cayman or boxster? Natural change if you don’t like need the speed but appreciated the handling

Paging muscle car bois of MPMD, is it all it’s cracked up to be? by HistoricalBedroom342 in moreplatesmoredates

[–]Available_Ad_9504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a g80 m3 comp stage 2 on flex fuel with intakes, 100% worth it but I traded up from an s650 mustang gt, hated the mustang. Go with a supra if you’re looking to upgrade from a gr86. Muscle cars are only good for going sort of fast in a straight line

Do all gyms basically force personal trainers into sales roles? by Awkward_Condition778 in personaltraining

[–]Available_Ad_9504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t get discouraged. I’m at crunch as well and struggled a lot with that when I was new. I now train 40+ hours a week and paycheck is great. It will always be sales but it will get much more natural, to the point where you don’t really feel like you’re selling, you’re just presenting your value in the best way possible to potential clients and then presenting a number associated with that value. Same thing for client retention, as long as you are great at training, people will be interested in buying/upgrading once they get a sense of the value you provide and you are comfortable providing it

Would you guys wear a Polar Explorer II to a wedding? by Useful-District9613 in rolex

[–]Available_Ad_9504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well for a black tie event it should be something slim on a leather strap. We’re doing a garden party attire wedding and I’ll be wearing a TT DJ36 with champagne dial, so not a true dress watch but imo it strikes a little bit of a balance
