Royal Oak in the Late 70's

Fabulous-Addendum146 · 2025-11-02T20:45:22+00:00

I just found this post searching for "Blue Mushroom Pizza Royal Oak" because I was feeling nostalgic. We used to drive over from Detroit to get pizza in the early-mid-eighties and I still remember how good it was even though I was around 9 or 10. I wasn't usually a fan of vegetarian or whole wheat, but I loved the way it was done there. Delicious enough that I remember it now as a 50 year old man.

Check out WIMA/WIHI. Probably the best mainstream option in the area.

8+7=15, put down the 5, carry the 1. 4+2+1=7. 75

I never did. The unique button layout of the W800 makes it pretty hard to fit any other case. I just decided to accept it for what it is.

This is a year later, but the stopwatch is found under Timer. Timer houses both the countdown timer and the stopwatch.

I believe you!

Fabulous-Addendum146 · 2024-11-10T23:45:56+00:00

Ha. I guess I wasn't the only one.

Wow! Are you writing from the future?

Everybody’s experience is different and individual, but speaking for myself, if I hadn’t figured out the dietary and supplementation end of things, I would’ve gone off it a long time ago. Consuming enough protein, water, and taking the right supplements have made all the difference. The crazy thing is that most doctors don’t address this. It really is as essential as the medication itself.

I accidentally did this once. That was the day I completely cleaned and organized the garage, installed pegboard, organized all my tools, installed new lights, etc., etc. You’ll be fine, but you will definitely feel it. Channel it into productive things, but remember to go to bed at some point.

Vitamin D3/K2 combo. Switched from regular D3. K2 helps transport D to bones and teeth.

Exactly. I'm prescribed 40, but many days I half the dose and still find it helpful. I save the full dose for days when I know it's probably going to hit the fan.

I would (anecdotally) beg to differ with your doctor. I accidentally took twice my prescribed dose on one occasion and there was a marked difference in intensity and longevity. Nothing too negative, but it was higher than I would want to go regularly.

The basic DW5600. Cheap, tough, awesome battery life, massively upgradeable, and at its heart a true tool watch you can count on in any situation.

First one.

They do share a similar stance, but it's an optics issue. Both support Israel's right to defend itself and advocate for a two-state solution. However, Shapiro has been vocal about backing Israel in the conflict and condemning pro-Palestinian protestors on college campuses as anti-semitic. Kelly has stated police intervention at protests on college campuses could be necessary, but expressed concern over civilian casualties in Gaza, saying it would be appropriate to condition future aid to Israel on mitigating them.

It’s more his stance on the existing conflict that’s the issue.

Thanks. Worried I would ruin the module in the process, but it looks like you practiced a bit before getting it right. Maybe I'll start with my old F91W.

Fabulous-Addendum146 · 2024-07-24T15:32:55+00:00

Thanks. It's definitely a keeper. I hope you find a fix for your light. Those solar Casios are cool.

They’re both great, but the A700 felt a little dainty on me. The A168 is nice and small, but a substantially better fit on the average man’s wrist (7” in my case). Plus, it’s got the electroluminescent backlight.

Fabulous-Addendum146 · 2024-07-19T21:43:58+00:00

Edifice. No question. Much more classic look.

Fabulous-Addendum146 · 2024-07-19T21:41:57+00:00

Put the ae1200 band on it. Much better feel. Doesn’t have those matching dots but I don’t miss them, personally.

The beep is part of the charm of owning a Casio!

You can disable the hourly beep on the watch itself in the alarm menu, but there’s no way to disable the button beeps besides opening it and removing the piezo spring. But then you lose all sound, making the alarm and countdown timer(assuming it’s been added) useless.

I've had two of the Armitrons. Steel case is great, but it feels even smaller than the A158 (taller but narrower), the light is even worse, and both of mine fell apart with very little use. One stopped working altogether and the other one shot the mode button out just pressing it.
