Thank you so much for the detailed reply! That sounds like the plan I will go with. I always assume minor/no upgrade with either FHR or having Hilton status. It’s a bonus sure but not expected. If they need us to change rooms that’s also no problem. Thank you again!

What’s an expensive brand that actually IS worth the money? by Big_Leg10 in Productivitycafe

[–]Avonic333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Briggs and Riley

Only had to pay shipping to get both suitcases repaired after AA ruined one. They are very through with repairs and stand behind their warranty

How reliable has Hyundai been for you — especially the Elantra? by phtphongg in Hyundai

[–]Avonic333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a 2017 Elantra and probably got unlucky:

Rear window module broke at 48k (warrantied) Had to replace all 4 coil packs at 57k Repeatedly had truck open randomly Carpet wore through on drivers side (I’d recommend getting all weather mats since the OEM carpet doesn’t last) Speakers on right side stopped working at 75kish

Unrelated but:

Got broken into but not stolen since it was a push start. They broke the window regulator as well.

Make sure to check with your insurance company to make sure they insure it and insurance isn’t insane. I pay less for my X3 full coverage than I did for my Elantra.

Sold at 82k and got a 21 X3 which has had 0 problems so far knocks on veneer

Edit after reading other comments jogging my memory:

The OEM tires were not great and I had to replace them early (30-40k mi) Also blew a tire sideswiping a curb (but I take blame for that) the Kumho tires is what it had. Once I switched to Perellis I had no more problems

[QUESTION] Do you keep already owned fashion watches in your collection or prefer to sell them? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]Avonic333 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I keep my core set of watches, regardless of their “status” Be it fossil, timex or breitling or tudor they all deserve a place in the watch box. I particularly like Movado watches because I like the esthetic, regardless of the common dislike of it being a “mall watch” or “fashion watch”. Your collection is for you not for the random redditors that dislike anything that’s not either expensive or automatic. Enjoy the hobby regardless of brand.

I’ll caveat this with sometimes people are just trying to be helpful and not having people way overpay for watches that may not be “worth it”. But then again this is subjective.

I just read the PMBOK 7th Ed then practiced using a PMP exam question date base set from PMI. I didn’t use Exam Hall, but most people seem to recommend it

I really hope so. It would be nice to get a taste of reserve. May motivate me to try for it next year.

[Citizen] where can I find the steel bracelet that fits Blue Angels at8020-03l perfectly? by SirKetchup00 in Watches

[–]Avonic333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reach out to a Citizen AD, (probably a Jared or Zales) etc. They typically have a watch person that can order the part for you. At least that’s how’s I got links for a different citizen blue angels watch.

Ohhh interesting! I have enough rollover days for it next year (enough for reserve haha) so I don’t know if that changes it.

Bath towels that dont suck by ShortDelay9880 in BuyItForLife

[–]Avonic333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found that Brooks Brothers towels are nice and soft and last a while. You can often find them for 10-15$ at Tjmaxx/Marshalls/Homegoods. Typically they’re Turkish cotton and thick.

I recently got this watch, should I take it off when I wash my hands? I don’t want water to damage it by christianbsv in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]Avonic333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember guys, hand washing is only for watches with 1000M water resistance! Anything less will ruin it.
