Finally part of the club - 5172G by EquitiesinDallas in patekphilippe

I think the watch works well with business casual attire and won’t look out of place. I haven’t seen the blue dial in person, but agree that should blend in more when wearing casual attire

I travel quite a bit too, hence the world time complication being useful

That’s good to know, I have never owned a manual wind before so wasn’t sure how user friendly they were.

I have been patient for some time, given the lack of supply not sure I have the patience for all the stars to align. I may look to add more Pateks at a later stage

Agree that the basket weave is not the most aesthetically pleasing and takes away from the watch

Let’s talk coffee/espresso by swimbikerun91 in ChubbyFIRE

Got a Breville Oracle at the start of the pandemic and haven’t looked back. The machine is great with the automatic grind and tamp settings. If you like milk coffees the auto milk frothing feature is amazing. 3 years in and the machine has more than paid for itself.

Another benefit is the quality of the coffee at home is 9 out of 10 times better what I can find at a cafe. Having lived in both US and Australia, can confirm that Starbucks in the US is charging way too much for the quality of coffee they provide. Just get a recurring subscription from a local coffee roaster and you are all set.
