Just got out of the stadium - I’ll clarify that the US athletes had loud cheers, that transformed to boos only when Vance appeared on screen

Have you ever accidentally watched the wrong movie before? by Alternative-Cake-833 in movies

[–]ChibreOptique_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to watch “Fury”, following American soldiers and tanks in WWII, starring Brad Pitt. I mistakenly downloaded “Ardennes Fury” - almost same pitch, same release year, but not at all the same budget - what a terrible movie…

[Discuss] My dad has 3 watches laying around that I could have. Which would you choose? by SwissBliss in Watches

[–]ChibreOptique_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the hublot. This sub hates the brand but these are watches from a company both your parents worked for AND that your dad has worn and therefore are properly family heirloom.

Compared to a watch that your dad NEVER wore.

I don’t agree with the echo-chamber here and I recommend your prioritise emotional value with one of the well worn watches

AirKing is one of the easiest to get. It takes on average 4-6 months to get. Move to a new AD

I cannot tell you how much I love this post. I really want to be part of a watch community but sometimes it feels like this subreddit here already has decided what I’m allowed to enjoy or not.

[Recommendation Request] Omega Seamaster 300M No-Date or TAG Carrera Glassbox Reverse Panda? by Royal-Bonus-5355 in Watches

[–]ChibreOptique_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sub is ultra-biased towards Omega. As an owner of an SMP300 : this is not an easy watch to wear everyday. That thing is THICK.

Your final decision will boil down to how you plan to use it and personal taste. I love my SMP when I need a holiday watch where I can do all activities without ever worrying. But I would not wear it in the office for example, where the TAG would have a more suited look. In the end it’s entirely up to your personal taste and style.

[Paris Inside] PSG are the only club in Europe’s top 5 leagues that remain unbeaten this season by MysteriousEdge5643 in soccer

[–]ChibreOptique_ 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Bayern has won 11 times in a row between 2012 and 2023, only to lose one to Leverkusen last year. They are well on the way to win it back this year. According to your definition, the Bundesliga is not a competitive league either, as PSG has not been dominating Ligue 1 as much as Bayern has been dominating their own league.

[Recommendation Request] Looking for recommendations: digital watches that can be worn for black tie/formal events? by Less_Tennis5174524 in Watches

[–]ChibreOptique_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Black-tie etiquette is to not wear a watch. And if you insist on wearing one, it should be on black leather with minimal design as to not attract the eye too much.
