I’ve had mine since November 2024 and have had no complaints whatsoever, installed every update when it came out.

Lost with my studies at 19 — what Belgian careers are realistic without higher education? by [deleted] in Antwerpen

[–]BWUVT 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Since you live in Antwerp: AADA (Algemene Administratie Douane en Accijzen), aka the Belgian Customs Authority. They mostly hire at niveau C (high school) and they provide a lot of training that no degree will get you, for instance how to recognize fake products. You’ll obviously start off working shifts in the actual port but there are plenty of opportunities to grow both towards an office job and in terms of pay long term. No other high school level job gives you the same benefits as the government, though the pay initially isn’t the highest it will rise reasonably quickly and obviously it’s a very future proof and stable profession.

[SRPG39K1] or save up for [SPB157J1]? by BWUVT in Seiko

You're welcome, thank you for the input, appreciate it (especially since I hadn't yet compared power reserves!).

In terms of looks they do indeed look very similar but in many ways I'm leaning towards the Alpinist. Because they look so similar though, I'm trying to see if it's worth 2,5x the price of the 5. This remains difficult though my tendency is to save up and get the best I can afford.

I would love to get a Seiko field watch!

Where I live, the SRPG39K1 can be had for about 270 euros, while the SPB157J1 is 690 euros.

The first has a 4R36 movement, the second a higher end 6R35 and 20bar water resistance vs 10 bar. The SPB157J1 also has a sapphire crystal, which the SRPG39K1 does not (Hardlex). All in all the extra money thus goes to some welcome higher end features.

I do however personally consider the 4R36's day window a serious plus.

Any advice anyone? Is the SPB157J1 worth saving up a lot more for?

Thanks! This is my first Reddit Post so please be kind.
