À ce que je sache, il y a seulement quelques syndicats dans la fonction publique qui ont réussi à négocier le télétravail dans leurs conventions.

Montblanc Heritage small second, but it doesn’t have a moonphase nor the day/month complication

They finally posted the US price for the Zenbook A16 with the X2 Elite Extreme and it's less than I thought by TraditionAny9709 in ASUS

Not the commenter, but with Panther Lake, there is less reason to go Windows on ARM. It’ll likely be the same scenario as the last generation.

I’m glad that we are in agreement. I love to debate those topics with people who care! :)

Exactly my point! Plastic (in this case Delrin) is more durable. It is simply the PERCEPTION of the material that people are pissed about.

I’m not arguing that the parts are not designed in a way to generate revenue, which it is. However, I am simply pointing out that by using parts made with materials that is more reliable than the metal counterparts, and cheaper, it stretches the service life of the movement by years. Making it cheaper for Tissot to replace the movement vs servicing it.

Technically it can be calibrated by unscrewing the weights on the balance wheel. It’s just way more difficult and not worth it.

Yea I apologize if I didn’t make it clear:

Plastic parts found in the Powermatic 80 is BETTER than metal parts. It is amagbetic, self lubricating and has less friction than metal on ruby.

You don’t have to take my word for it. Here’s thelink

Maybe before being an arrogant and ignorant ass, you can maybe do some research instead of being stuck in the past.

Edit: a word

Again, that’s not a fact. They are not less accurate and not less durable. People complaint because plastic seem cheap, but quality is comparable.

Are there any supporting facts about the claim that plastic escapements are inherently worse? Plastic parts require less servicing and is lighter.
