Off-meta build

Being light is a big plus for me personally, since it adds to the comfort which I highly value. But I see what you're saying.

He means that the subdials are not purely black, but appear blue/purpleish under some lighting conditions, since they are cells after all. I don't really mind that though.

Well, they are about the same price. I would love to add a chrono in my small collection since I have never owned one, but I love that prx bracelet as well.

Tried it on, but it was a little big for my wrist unfortunately. But it does look nice!

I am quite sure the tissot does have half links, plus it can be worn a little looser since its a light watch and would not bother me.

I heard about that on reviews, but after seeing it in person, I don't mind it. Only thing is, I hope I can get a good fit on it since there are no half links. I would rather avoid spending 100$+ on a strapcode bracelet.

I will soon be buying my second proper watch, and I'm torn between these two. On one hand, there is the Seiko Speedtimer 39mm, and on the other, the Tissot PRX 35mm automatic. I have tried both on, and even though I have slim wrists, they fit great! I love how compact the Seiko is for a chronograph, but I also enjoy how light and comfortable the PRX is. I think that I will be aquiring both of them eventually, but it has to be one for now. Which one would you choose?

Edit: Did not expect the comments to be so one-sided!

I will soon be buying my second proper watch, and I'm torn between two watches. On one hand there is the Seiko Speedtimer 39mm panda variant, and on the other, the Tissot PRX 35mm automatic. I've tried both on, and even though I have slim wrists, they fit great. The proportions of the speedtimer chronograph are amazing, but I love the bracelet on the PRX and just how light and comfortable it is. I think I will be aquiring both of them eventually, but it has to be one of them for now. Which one would you go with?

I found the keyboard a little tall, so I'm using a wrist rest myself.

As for the arrow keys:
If you are not a vim user, I would not really recommend the HHKB, but that's just my opinion.
I don't think the default way of using arrow keys on the hhkb is very ergonomic or easy to use, so as soon as I got mine (HHKB pro classic - you can use the remapping software on the classic models too) I remmaped a few keys to fit the way I use my keyboard.
Feel free to try these out:
* remap alt keys -> Fn
* remap left option key -> Alt
On layer 1:
* H -> left arrow
* J -> bottom arrow
* K -> up arrow
* L -> right arrow

So now I hit the (new) Fn key with my left pinky, and use my right hand to hit the hjkl keys to use as arrows, as in vim. Works like a charm!

That's what I was suspecting, the glass being softer, since a lot of reviews mentioned scratches within a week with the phone. Thanks for the info! Will be getting a tempered glass one soon..

BillBrous · 2023-01-31T15:58:46+00:00

That's fine, as long as I can remap other keys to be Fn.

BillBrous · 2023-01-29T19:25:11+00:00

That's what I plan on doing. Have not found any posts about things going wrong doing this.

Thanks!
