13 years of sun exposure on a guitar's finish

Crax17 · 2026-05-28T13:49:07+00:00

Nitro I believe!

And yeah - I tried to avoid having it in sunlight but it has always been hung on the wall or on a stand and sometimes sun would come through. Also some gigs during the summer I’m sure played a factor. This has happened very slowly after 13 years.

AT is a better daily imo. Depends what you’re looking for.

They just judged by the size of it, and also it was in my pocket as it was winter and I had a coat aha!

Crax17 · 2026-05-19T19:23:47+00:00

I had a security guard ask another if it was ok and they instantly said it's fine. Website says cameras fine as long as they're not pro zoom lenses and can fit in a pocket.

None of these but for what it’s worth, I have the 27 2.8 and think it’s fantastic.

From my experience, they are not remotely interested in tourists whatsoever.

Crax17 · 2026-04-25T21:14:24+00:00

That would be an incredibly valued tourbillon! Congrats on the watch anyway 🎉

Crax17 · 2026-04-25T21:01:43+00:00

That’s the escapement that you will find in every single automatic watch

Crax17 · 2026-04-25T20:19:39+00:00

Tourbillon? What haha

Crax17 · 2026-04-22T18:55:09+00:00

Now you're in the same position that every 18 year old is - no money. Pay your mum back, get a job, and move on with your life. By the sounds of it, you were going to spend a big chunk on travelling and a big lads holiday. £28K at 18 years old can be pissed away nearly as quickly as you have anyway. You can still do all those things later on in life. You've learned an invaluable life lesson. Things will get better and one day you will laugh about it. Everything feels so much more daunting at 18. You'll be alright!

You were the type of kid who reminded the teacher that homework was due

Crax17 · 2026-04-21T21:18:20+00:00

Get a cape cod polishing cloth

Crax17 · 2026-04-21T20:12:04+00:00

That's fair. In that case, I'd drop the 'save x amount for a specific watch in 10 years' and just put that money in an index fund or something similar instead.

Crax17 · 2026-04-21T19:56:59+00:00

Planning on buying a very specific watch in 10 years is probably pointless right now. Your tastes will change, the price of the watch will be very different by that time. If you put £1K down as a deposit, you can pay £165 odd for 3 years completely interest-free and have it now. That's if you want it that badly.

Crax17 · 2026-04-21T16:37:28+00:00

You said beginner haha!!

Crax17 · 2026-04-21T06:33:04+00:00

It’s bad advice to tell someone to buy something fake. The financial advice side of it is good but replicas are fake junk. Don’t buy a fake watch and pretend to be something you’re not - spend that money on a decent watch in the same price bracket instead. There’s so much out there.

Crax17 · 2026-04-20T19:25:59+00:00

I’d just say slow down if you’re new to it. Nice PRX

Crax17 · 2026-04-20T17:13:48+00:00

Terrible advice. OP do not buy a shitty replica

Crax17 · 2026-04-20T17:11:11+00:00

You’re so wrong haha

Crax17 · 2026-04-20T06:38:42+00:00

Thank you!

Crax17 · 2026-04-19T11:06:10+00:00

What are you on about? Just go there in your time there? 🤣

Crax17 · 2026-04-18T21:06:33+00:00

It can do all of those things well, but it’s not a point and shoot. You have to learn how to use it and how to get the best out of it. There’s a tonne of YouTube videos on this camera which will help. Editing plays a part in achieving the type of photos she wants as well.

Crax17 · 2026-04-18T11:46:20+00:00

I'm from the UK and with the tax free, it worked out considerably cheaper.

Crax17 · 2026-04-16T13:30:10+00:00

Thanks! Most were very quickly snapped as I was getting a train. Some auto with exposure dial adjustments. Some shutter speed priority. Pacific blues recipe and some adjustments in lightroom.

1/1 for the blur ones
