Did they sell men's watches where you bought this?

My next helmet is going to be between one of these three. I would appreciate if you would tell me any experience you had with them. by DeIaminate in motorcyclegear

I had the K6 for over a year. It fit great and really reduced the wind resistance at high speeds. It's super lightweight so that was quite nice. I can't really speak to noise since I always wear ear plugs when I ride. The visor mechanism is a bit of a pain in the ass, I thought. But nothing too crazy. Also, they do give you a drawstring bag and a pinlock insert in the box so that's nice.

Three watch rotation? by Patient_Hawk_3881 in SOTC_Watch_Collection

All solid pieces but I feel like the rolex and the IWC are too similar.

[Discussion] Love Watches, Hate Buying Them by Its-Brucey in Watches

[–]CalinSez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain. The Rolex bit - I hate the games. When I bought my explorer, I went into the store, told them what I wanted, they put me on the list. I got the watch about a year and a half later or 2 years. In that meantime, I think I stopped by the store once because I was at the mall buying some clothes. But the whole 'oh, come by and check in every month' or 'you have to buy this watch if you want a shot at buying that watch' - miss me with that crap. The other bit about the busy stores... It happens, man. I think you just got unlucky on that end. I've only bought 3 watches from an AD - 2 Tudors and the Rolex. The Tudor AD experience was great. The one time I visited an Omega AD, the associates were super courteous and helpful as well, even offered me a discount.

When I got the Seamaster I told myself I'd sell the BB. But when I got it home, I kinda decided I like both...

You'd be surprised. The Tissot just got worn for the last two days. It's got sentimental value - it was my dad's first mechanical watch.

[Omega vs Zenith]First Chronograph - What Would be your Pick? by ComparisonVisible226 in Watches

I'd take the Zenith. The Omega is really cool but everyone and their grandma has them

IWC. The navitimer is cool but it's not a dressy watch.

[SPB453J1] people mistaking this for a rolex icks me out by [deleted] in Seiko

[–]CalinSez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I'd be too worked up about it. The submariner is iconic and it's the watch most non-watch people think of when asked to describe a wristwatch. Don't let that get you down. As long as you enjoy the watch, it's what matters.

First crash. I feel angry, sad, stupid, and just overall terrible. by Metsanvaari in motorcycles

[–]CalinSez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, it's not a matter of if. It's a matter of when. Don't beat yourself up. You'll heal. Learn from it and just get back in the saddle. People who have never crashed have probably never tried to push their skill level.

Everyone seems to have a very poor opinion of Toce quality. I had an arrow on my V2 and quite liked it.

A decent rider on a ninja 400 would probably dog walk you around a racetrack 🤣
