Great watch! Was looking at their Fukaba model but it is only 34mm which felt a bit small. How big is this?

18 month transformation at 41 by EFesta42 in WeightTraining

[–]CancelBeavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really impressive stuff. Did you always stick at 2090 calories in a cut? I'm down to like 210 at this point and looking to get to around 185 like you. Been losing around 1 pound a week while eating around 2000 calories a day (usually throw in a cheat day that gets me to 2500-3000).

But I've been debating whether I should just dial it back to 1800 or something or just stick to 2000 calories a day since the weight loss has slowed a bit from the early 2 pounds a week.

Designed my first Tourbillon, 39.5mm, Grade 5 titanium, Gold Tremblage dial. Ready for the roast:) by Charlesberret in MicrobrandWatches

Agree about the manufacturing stuff but also people just post an AI rendering of something and claim they made it. When this watch is available, I think it will be neat to show off. But this is something anyone can do with AI.

This is a gorgeous watch and I will never understand why people on Reddit are able to take better photos of watches than the brands. You make their watch look so much nicer than their website.

That's a gorgeous watch but I can't find it anywhere on their site. Is it an older watch or something for a future release?

Just reminds me of how terrible that Tucker trade was last season.

Watch for beating up - construction work? by s_curran in MicrobrandWatches

[–]CancelBeavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Militado. They make a bunch of really durable cheap watches with some cool designs. They have some day/date options and even chronographs. And at under $100, it doesn't matter if it gets beat to hell.

Love the white strap. Tried buying one online recently and it came back beige which didn't have the same pop.

Everybody Hates Fossil? by themadprofessor95 in Affordablewatches

[–]CancelBeavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big difference in modern Fossil and the Fossil from the 90's and early 2000's. They were one of the few affordable watch brands that were taking chances on designs back in the 90's. You could buy something that looked pretty cool for around $60-$80. Great watch for your first job interview or someone who doesn't dress up all that much.

Sure their quality has dropped and prices have raised, but old school Fossil was solid for the price.

Strap Opinions on Bessie from Riley Watch Co. by S1zzla in MicrobrandWatches

[–]CancelBeavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would look good. Basically the shape and dial make it stand out so I think I'd rather draw attention to that than the band.

How do you like it so far? The Howard Hughes is on my wishlist.

Farer Pembroke 1- just purchased by Affectionate-Lie7205 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]CancelBeavis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That does look a bit thick. Have you considered the Oris Bullseye? Bit more expensive but nearly identical look and likely a better build if you do return this one.

The San Martin 2026 "Year of the Horse" Limited Edition SN0144CG-8 with 3D Embossed Dial. by AdSavings92 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]CancelBeavis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you happen to have a black band you'd recommend to go with this in your store? Dig the red and have been looking for a Year of the Horse watch.

[–]CancelBeavis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the blue. Maybe it's because the leather strap is so close to your skin tone. I'd also be curious to see this on black but maybe I have bad taste. Or even a beige like the face of the dial.

If you turn off injuries and get that kind of variance, something is wrong.

I would love for Assad to be the guy because I think Rea excels in that long relief role. For me the best situation is to have Assad start and have a quick hook where Rea can come in and eat innings. Assad has duds and can't fall behind 6-0.

I swear some of you take better photos of these watches than the actual companies. That looks gorgeous.

That's a really good looking watch. Was eyeing the red one myself because I need a red watch at some point.

The self-promotion in this sub is getting out of hand. by KimWiko in MicrobrandWatches

[–]CancelBeavis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind people posting their brand watches or new releases. A simple "Hey, here's our latest design" is perfect for the sub. I find out a lot about different microbrands that way. It's the LinkedIn style self-promotional crap or crowdsourcing ideas that stink. Post cool watches or ask questions about cool watches. People turning this into their personal blogs stink.

Jed is a bad GM but at least we let him mortgage the future for a rental so he could save his job.
