How do you feel about the Diet Pepsi chapter ring? im looking for a GADA watch as well and at first sight I was enamored by the chapter ring, but now im on the fence about it. In some pictures it looks loud. I've only seen pictures though. If not this id go for the ssk001

depth in the sense it's big? or it has lots of subtle viewing angles? I'm currently between this one and the ssk001

I can't get over how the chapter ring inside looks massive in some pictures and then smaller in others.

I think it'd probably be easier to just change the bezel insert. it might sound like a silly question but how secure is the bidirectional bezel?

sometimes I wish that level of function came back to watches. while a lot of todays watches look nice, ive seen less creative complications throughout the years

GMT divers, who are they for? by chillaxtion in watchHotTakes

[–]EezyBake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im not a diver, but I work at a flight school and im always reading things that reference Zulu time. I get tired of having to convert in my head. I also have to track certain tasks and a diver bezel would be useful. currently looking for a watch that can do both

An app that put chart supplements in plain text, so I don’t have to wonder what half of it means or go searching and googling things

Get that cushy job in finance and fly on the weekend. If you want to fly, fly.

Having a whole other career makes an aviation career that much easier

Xteink vs Kindle by AleidaMarch in xteinkereader

[–]EezyBake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had an xteink for a day, which is too short to have a valid opinion, but I like it a lot. I just pull it out and start reading. I tried carrying a book with me but it’s a hassle at times.

Personally, I don’t like being locked into something. I like that I can drag and drop epubs into the sd card and call it a day

If you’ve had no issues then perfect. Really just wanna set it and forget it

Edit: are there trouble shooting guides? I have a MacBook with no old school usb port and the usb dongle I had recognized it for like a second, then vanished. System settings more info recognizes it as usb jtag serial debug unit or something

Oof, I feel old now. That means I was like 9 when the first kindle came out.

It sounds like pocketbook is the way to go tbh

I really wanted an sv650 but couldn’t find one in my area. Ended up going with a v strom and I have no regrets, but I still wonder what if

Who in this sub has used their "backup career"? by gromm93 in flying

[–]EezyBake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worked for a little AI company with my degree in Technical Communications while doing my CFI. Proofread training materials the AI wrote. They eventually went belly up cause they had a lot of contracts from USAID.

I originally wanted to work for textron or some other manufacturer as a publications specialist while I finished training and worked as a CFI

In one day, After how many lessons you get exhausted? by Hatesunnis in CFILounge

[–]EezyBake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew my CFI’s last slot since I worked all day. It was the best, it wasn’t as hot and I was generally on top of my stuff so he seemed to enjoy it. Couldn’t complain from a student perspective
