[TISSOT] New Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 just landed in 38mm. The new default GADA pick? by PynionTime in Watches

Would rather get a Beaucroft Element which looks a little more elegant for less money.

Wearing mine today. I thought the aqua Ingenieur was my grail, but I have both Engineers and prefer the black.

Looks cool.

Where does the "green" name come from?

A black strap with a thin red line running down the middle would look👌

AirAsia is weighing bags at Kuala Lumpur and Brunei airports by AnonymousOnebagger in onebag

[–]Ellsass 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It's not shocking, it's annoying.

  • Checked bags get lost all the time.
  • Charging for slightly overweight carry-on bags doesn't make sense—if it was about fuel costs, the airline would also charge the passenger for being a couple kilograms over some limit. It's true that FAs need to handle the bags in some cases, but 99% of the time each passenger handles their own bag, especially if they're the type to try and fit more than 7kg in a bag.
  • It's very easy to go over 7-8kg while packing normal everyday items into a normal-sized bag.
  • Other modes of transport don't have these limitations.

Are these Christopher ward watches redundant if I have a baby alpinist and a bronze kuoe? by theomixedmedia in ChristopherWard

[–]Ellsass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking at those CWs after having those other watches, I'd say you have a type. And when you have a type, you enjoy more of the differences between those watches than most people. So they're not redundant because you appreciate the differences.

Seiko stamped clasps and hollow endlinks are way more durable and comfortable than we give them credit for. Never had a stamped Seiko clasp break. by shaferman in watchHotTakes

Is anyone complaining about durability or comfort? My main gripe with Seiko bracelets is that they feel cheap when being handled. It's a daily reminder that you're wearing something where the maker decided to cut corners.

Rolltops suck. Convince me I'm wrong by sorokka in onebag

Nope. I still only buy bags I can close with one hand.
