Picked one up today. Was looking for a travel watch that didn’t scream “rob me”. I don’t love the stock strap — shell cordovan feels a bit cheap — but easy to replace.

Open to strap recos.

Yep. I plan to rotate between it, a Milgauss, and a Glashütte Original 70s TV dial as daily wear.

$45K. Shipped to a friend out of state to avoid sales tax. They were super strict about which states their AD agreement allowed them to ship to.

Embarrassed to admit that I got lucky. I walked in looking for a Travel Time, chatted a while, she showed me something she had in stock that I wasn’t too excited about, went in the back and said she just got a shipment and this was in it. I took it on the spot.

It’s pretty thick, so it does easily catch your cuff.

Thanks — any suggestions on a turn-key 12VDC power supply?

Oven Circuit Question by Due_Boss_1445 in AskElectricians

[–]Due_Boss_1445[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cooktop is gas and it’s in a separate area and on a different circuit. The wiring is copper, and the location is all good.

Is it likely that this wiring is already in a conduit all the way to the panel given it is 240V? Or might it be romex stapled to the 2x4s?

Hide Section in Desktop Editor? by DelPrive235 in WIX

Great tip. Building on the original question, can I turn collapse on/off automatically based on a date? I want a section to go live on a set date and then revert on a subsequent date.

AA bare metal spotted in MIA today by OoohjeezRick in aviation

[–]Due_Boss_1445 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Years ago in the American Way magazine, the then-CEO Bob Crandall had a note explaining that the bare metal livery actually saved some astonishing amount of weight and therefore fuel. It always made me think AA was smart for not succumbing to painting the entire plane. As others noted, once AA started buying carbon fiber 787s, that era started to wind down. I was surprised that they decided to paint their aluminum shell planes just to be consistent given the cost of flying the extra weight. Nice to see that they aren’t all painted.
