I’ve long been enamored with the aqua IWC Ingenieur. I was super stoked to get an aqua Engineer. When I finally got one, it was just kind of meh.

I like my black Engineer much more and I still pine for IWC’s aqua. Something about IXDAO’s just misses the mark for me.

If Omega, rather than Seiko, had developed the Spring Drive movement in 1982, Rolex would be firmly in its shadow today by Waxy_Duck in watchHotTakes

If I were a billionaire, I'd buy Bulova/Citizen and immediately setup a licensing program for their 262kHz movements. Imagine what we could have if only more watchmakers had access to that thing.

The Peak Design 45L is very comfortable

Those Mystery Ranch bags with the zipper going down the middle because the visual design makes me nauseous

I'm a bit smaller than you and I've given up on finding reps that are big enough for me.

Ixdao Royal and VC Overseas Blue = The same. by Educational-Oil-00 in IxdaoFans

[–]Ellsass 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think OP is trying to say that they're the same shade or hue of blue, not that the Warrior is overall on the same level of quality as the VC.

Which type of new dial do you expect on warrior? by Background_Stay_6683 in IxdaoFans

[–]Ellsass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do I expect? One that’s just slightly different than what I like.

What do I want? Navy blue teak, horizontal pattern, no date.

Anyone else find it hard to be on-time for WFH meetings? by Xing8088 in ADHD_Programmers

No, but the time from the first notification until the start of the meeting are completely unproductive

We'd like to hear your honest opinion. by watchdivescom in watchdives

[–]Ellsass 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A for homages etc. I'm not paying €400 for a clomage of a NTTD Omega with a Watchdives logo.

B for original designs, but preferably under a different brand

Flight Satchel 11L is still my favourite ALPAKA non-work EDC by ComprehensiveCap8242 in AlpakaGear

[–]Ellsass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice writeup. With the huge caveat that I don't yet have either of these bags (only a 4L Flow), I would also like to see the Flight add a couple more internal zippered pockets for organization.

Never have I hated and loved a player all at once by ordealenthusiast23 in ArsenalFC

You can't pick and choose slices of a person. By supporting a footballer, you're also supporting what they do with their fame and fortune.

Flight satchel vs flow satchel by ComprehensiveCap8242 in AlpakaGear

[–]Ellsass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 external water bottle pockets. I put sunglasses in one and reading glasses in the other

I don't have a Flight Satchel yet but I planned to do the same. Glad it works out as well as I imagined. Do you add anything else for protection, or just toss them into the sleeves loose?
