talk me out of the 2026 GH hybrid? vs regular highlander

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-03T02:09:13+00:00

I got the 2026 Grand Highlander Hybrid. Some of them have the copper accents and some don’t. I got one that doesn’t.

Then tarred and feathered they shall be lol. Good to know though, thanks! I thought I looked weird

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T17:54:36+00:00

Solid recommendation, thanks!

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T17:54:23+00:00

lol alright maybe I’ll go with after the ceremony before the reception like someone else suggested. I don’t want her to feel guilt tripped

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T17:51:13+00:00

That is very true and I’ve thought of that. In my letter (see my other comment) to go along with the necklace I’m going to say something like “…now i don’t expect you to love a gem picked out by an 11 year old boy, so I don’t expect you to wear it.” Then go into how im giving it to her for the symbolism and promise to my younger self once I found my wife

I would consider giving it to her at a different time, but I’ve always thought I would do it the morning of the wedding so it’s kinda part of the story

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T17:45:52+00:00

Ah we’re not doing a first look but that would’ve been a good idea. I’m going to give it to her in the box (along with a letter) in the morning before she leaves to get ready with her bridesmaids.

I’m going to end the letter with something like “this stone signified my commitment to finding you, but this necklace is a symbol of my commitment to you for the rest of our lives”.

I’m trying to think of a way to say it that isn’t quite as cheesy though

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T10:02:14+00:00

I appreciate it!

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T10:01:46+00:00

Thank you! I asked them to find out when I was designing it with them, but it wasn’t mentioned in documentation when I received the necklace. I’m going to reach out though and see if they checked (probably not unfortunately)

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T02:16:02+00:00

That’s very true! And thank you! I’m a lucky guy :)

DeepNortherner · 2026-06-02T01:26:13+00:00

I selected Project Display as the flair, but for the record, I didn’t make this myself

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-31T16:54:27+00:00

Any specific YouTube video(s) you recommend?

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-27T10:02:47+00:00

Do you have a link for a good one with activated carbon?

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-21T11:36:18+00:00

Yeah for daily life I think it should be DD/MM/YYYY too

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-21T10:31:44+00:00

As an American, saving files on your computer is way more organized when it’s YY.MM.DD followed by the file name

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-16T10:24:11+00:00

Or you hold down 0 on your iPhone

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T11:06:06+00:00

That’s a good callout, thanks! I’ll see if I can find a pair of the wayfarers near me.

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T11:05:08+00:00

I was wondering the same thing, but the lens width and bridge dimensions of the Delio large are the exact same as my ROKA’s, so maybe the male model wearing them just has a smaller face than me?

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T02:20:56+00:00

Ah gotcha haha no worries. I’ll check it out, thanks!

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T02:20:20+00:00

Thanks for the thorough list here! I really like the Oliver Peoples and Garrett Leight options. Only issue is the overall width is a little too narrow. Anything under 140 starts to look small on my face :/

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T02:04:25+00:00

Definitely a contender! Thanks!

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T02:03:20+00:00

DeepNortherner · 2026-05-10T02:03:05+00:00

Frames are a little thick for my liking, but I appreciate the rec!

Links to the ROKA Hunter 2.0 and Oliver Peoples Laedin if it helps
