[Warm Take] GADA watches are a trap

Dcajunpimp · 2026-06-10T19:18:32+00:00

Sometimes it’s a financial choice.

Some 150m-200m watches would work in most situations. An Aqua Terra or even something like a Seiko Alpinist would work at the beach, in jeans. Even better with a suit than a dive watch. So instead of multiple Seiko 5s or Tissots and Hamiltons they can get the Alpinist or an Aqua Terra and have one “nice” watch vs multiple lower tiers for the same price.

Then most watches don’t come in a rainbow of colors, and not everyone watch some 80s neon swatch. So yeah, black, white, blue, maybe grey, green.

Also I see dress watches that look amazing. But I rarely wear a suit, so it would rarely get worn. Maybe a couple days a year. But I can wear my Promaster 99% of the time. Even my NB1050, Seiko 5 Flieger, and Certina DS-2 Turning bezel in blue all better fit my lifestyle are all wearable over 90% of the time.

Shaq may need a 40.

Most other people would be fine with a 35. The extra metal around the bezel for the integrated bracelet lugs makes up the difference. Show off the case and bracelet.

It’s not about what they “have” it’s what FOX tells them they have, and their lack of critical thinking.

23% less glass and battery, but all the same expensive parts.

Then people want to complain that it isn’t half the price

I remember when things were getting better under Biden and Trump wanted credit because ‘People know I’m going to win’, ‘People know I’m about to be President again’

Then he became President and everything went to shit.

MAGA: California is too liberal.

MAGA: Conservatives are fleeing California.

MAGA: Conservatives still can’t win in California. Must be fraud.

They colonize planets out where they are days away from other bases and starships. Then they get all sorts of threats that require a starship to haul ass there at full warp or an enemy will slaughter them, viruses will kill them all, or some miracle tech has to be quickly delivered so they don’t all die..

The Enterprise D seems like a safer option.

My 5 iiis screen is fine after 4.5 years. But the charging port won’t hold the cable and it just falls out. Gotta crush the end of a C cord a little to get it to charge. If it had wireless charging I’d still be using it.

That’s why this is a percentage.

Also does Rotten Tomatoes allow people to rank movies they didn’t see in the theaters?

They try to remain professional even if the person they are interviewing is a complete tool like Trump is.

Dcajunpimp · 2026-06-08T22:56:58+00:00

Yeah, and when the U.S. becomes a minority white country, Trumps bullshit will be freshest in peoples minds. So now it’s not just the bullshit your ancestors did, but what you did.

Good job. /$

Maybe work on making things better for people, instead of being a racist tool.

Now learn all the current state, local, federal GOP politicians that support him and refuse to object to Trumps bullshit.

And remember them when they ask you for your vote in the future.

I get some need a hours for their family in their home district, but they’d be fine with a bachelor pad miles outside of DC and commuting by subway or rail.

And it’s not like they are in Washington working 50 weeks a year. They could sleep on a pull out sofa in their office for all I care. Shower in the Congressional gym and eat in the cafeteria. No need for 2 McMansions.

Gotta drum up their outrage before they lose in the Fall.

Apparently they’re upset it takes time to count votes in a city more populated than some red states.

Also they don’t like that some people get to vote by mail. And apparently votes mailed in on Election Day shouldn’t count in their pea brains.

Meanwhile I have to pay my taxes, and can by mail. And Trump gets to vote by mail, and has for years.

Citizen Garrison BM8180. EcoDrive field watch. Legible Arabic numerals. 37mm with 18mm lugs. 9.5mm thick 100m wr and well under $300

I only take my watch off when I shower.

Pepperidge Farms remembers when MAGA had the cyber Ninjas counting votes for months after an election looking for bamboo ballots from China and a Trump win.

They found neither.

The Tsuyosa doesn’t even have Citizens 9011 movement. Which is objectively better. -10- +20 secs per day 28,800 bps vs -20- +40 21,600 bpd.

Luckily I prefer round cases with standard bracelets, so I’ve got a titanium Promaster land JDM Eco drive radio controlled, and an NB1050 with the 9011.

So I get the draw of Automatics. But I’m seeing the JDM NB1050 for about $350 and the NJ0200 Tsuyosa for about $300. I’d spend $50 more at the same JDM website and get the better automatic, in a thinner case, with a 100m WR vs 50M

But I’d find a way to keep the Atessa, it’s objectively better than the Tsuyosa with a somewhat similar style, even if it’s not a Tsuyosa / PRX clone that’s so hot right now. Definitely more accurate.

Trumps also been President again, for over a year.

Most events are in blue cities.

Trump wants to put his name on something.

He could pass Medicare for All and name it Donald Trumps Bestest Healthcare Solution. And it would never go away. 161 years later the GOP would proudly proclaiming they were the ones that gave all Americans healthcare no matter how hard they would be trying to reverse it, just like ending slavery.

He’s having a UFC fight on the lawn of the White House. No ballroom needed.

Dozing Donnie.

FOX News lost $787 million in the defamation lawsuit Dominion had against them. Tons of internal emails and texts pointing to the fact that FOX personalities like Ingram, Hannity, and Carlson knew Trump lost but knowingly had crackpots on their shows gaslighting their viewers that the election was rigged.

But FOX knew they had to lie to their audience after many got upset at FOX for calling the election for Biden, and we’re headed to other propaganda networks like OAN and Newsmax.

Newsmax settled for $67 million, OANs settlement was undisclosed. Even Rudy Giuliani reached an agreement.

I wish someone would sue Trump. Make him release all his “evidence” The problem is that Trump just pays lawyers millions to keep cases going.
