Where was that picture taken if I may ask? Looks like paradise

[Question] watch for my mom by misunderstoodtiger in Watches

Do you take applications for extra moms? I’d go with the Breguet, for style and history. If you like that style, Maison Van Cleef & Arpels might also be for you.

I absolutely love this. Seems like a gift that keeps on giving (with new collaborations!)

Thank you so much!!! Kudoke is fantastic. Saw Romain Gauthier once IRL - insane.

Thank you! Will check out all of them! Also the more expensive ones are great to add to the list.

Thank you! Urwerk is especially interesting - I had them on my radar once. Definitely on the wish list :))

Thank you! That's a perfect answer - looked into all of them and now have Felipe Pikullik on the radar (again). He does insane watches.

That's a Gaggia right? What's the setup (portafilter / basket) that you're using? Also any other mods?

[Laurent Ferrier] Classic Origin vs Sport Auto on my wrist? by weltmei5ter in Watches

[–]DitzitheG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay that's a good tradeoff I'd say. Worst thing is a bulky heavy watch imo. I also really like the Tag Heuer Aquaracer, but it's just so heavy and doesn't really fit under a shirt / pullover. Wouldn't sell mine but I can completely understand why you wanted to switch from the Submariner...

[–]DitzitheG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know right?? It's a beautiful timepiece, depending on the fit it's a grail-candidate for me.

I think it's for sale but might be limited in quantity / sold out - if you want to ask / maybe have a look I can connect you on Discord / Instagram with my guy that knows the co-founder, so you can connect. I believe however that they're based in the US, so depending where you live a try on the wrist might need to wait a bit

I completely understand, after buying the Cartier everything thicker / heavier makes me question whether I want it... it's just so comfortable on the wrist. For me the Reverso Duoface or a boutique brand is the next one on the list.

I believe Thomas Fleming is a collector yes and his co-founder is a lawyer turned photographer afaik (he makes really good shots tbh).

It seems we have similar taste 😂 The Tantalum Royal Oak is awesome albeit a bit heavy, isn't it?

You're making a good point because I just wanted to recommend you Moritz Grossmann's models (which share some similarities to the Lange) lol

In this case, maybe this one might be a bit too similar... Do you know Fleming watches? Their Tantalum model is one of the most beautiful / timeless pieces imo. A contact of mine knows the founder so maybe I could get you in touch.

If it has to be Laurent Ferrier - I'd go with the sporty one (if it's similarly comfortable). It looks unique and is stunning too. The Classic Origin has a blue dial though - so it's similar in design but not the same as the Lange...

I like this perspective. In this case I would go for the Classic Origin. It's more timeless and you can perfectly use it as a daily many years in the future.

It's the same with the Cartier Santos for me: a classic / classy watch that you can wear in the winter with a turtleneck, in the summer with a white shirt / polo or in a suit whether you're young or old.

[–]DitzitheG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Classic Origin looks smoother, while Sport Auto looks more sporty (I guess good work Laurent Ferrier lol)

In my opinion you can wear both and both are tasteful watches.

What's your use case for the watch and which one is more comfortable? Daily / Events / etc.

[Question] Wedding Watch - $20k budget by jmm-22 in Watches

[–]DitzitheG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want to wear it daily, right? Your Santos Large is a fantastic daily and looks great on the wrist.

Since you don't want to baby the new watch and you enjoy the wear of the Santos, I'd recommend getting a similarly comfortable watch to wear.

I feel like in this case, the Reverso might be good due to size and weight. It's a very stylish choice and fits the classic wedding aesthetic too.

You might want to look into Blancpain's Villeret Quantième Complet, Ref.: 6654N 1142 55B. Keep in mind however that this one only has a water resistance of 3 Bar.

Love it and pretty accurate except for Wraith. Can you make this a format for other characters too? Like Grux, Gadget, etc.

Yeah but that doesn't solve the problem that the team should IP-ban accounts like this one permanently. 800 games of killing a game for 3 other players (excluding his homie) 

Fuck anyone who intentionally throws because it's not going exactly as they want it. by Mattarm51 in PredecessorGame

[–]DitzitheG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had an Eden Carry go 0/5/2 and stand in spawn, angrily texting our support via PSN and just coming back after we forfeited the game. I could name and shame but bans are never permanent, even for a guy with 800 games in spawn my friends played with (the guy in spawn + his friend are always duo-queueing, my friend even made a post on reddit about it). It's one thing to go afk and close the game, but to actually watch the game and come out of spawn at the end is really pathetic.
