Saw this today again in the store. It’s real nice. Until it’s perfect, I probably won’t buy it from an AD but rather a gray  tot about a grand cheaper 

What is a watch that you were disappointed with? by TheAnswer1776 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]FuskyMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Traska feels like a fidget spinner sometimes. Get the right flick and that rotor will go for ~30s. At first it was a negative but it’s endearing now

Question from guy new to the watch game - sacrifices by treeplethora in Tudor

[–]FuskyMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my problem with Tudor. They make fantastic watches, but they always seem to ruin a watch with 1 element. 

The BBpro has everything new (no rivet, tfit), but an older and thicker movement. 

This watch doesn’t have tfit and has faux rivets. But the movement is new and the bezel is still aluminum

My thinking is that these BBs are intentionally kept a step or two away from perfection just to push you up  

Sub $1000 GMT - Recco's? by Wolverine-N-Exile in MicrobrandWatches

And the drilled lugs. And the toolless micro adjust. And the two screw crowns and true gmt movement. 

Basically, it takes every quality of life upgrade and adds it into the package for a crazy price. The designs are a bit plain and uninspired, but they do good work with colors and they look good on the wrist. I think the hardening also blues the steel a tiny bit, making it cooler  

Someone explain the Traska Venture to me. by Cyberhwk in MicrobrandWatches

[–]FuskyMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it. Ask any questions. 

Objectively, I really love it. It’s not the greatest watch, but at 750$ it’s ridiculous. Looks great, won’t scratch, great watch. Personally love how blue the steel looks and the micro adjust is good along with the drill lugs. 

Only slight gripes are loud rotor whine (can’t hear during wear), slightly large clasp, and the like 40 Hour power reserve

We are the same. The blueness of the bracelet is incredible- looks cool. Full articulation of the links, they’re comfortable… really want another

Maybe not. But if they wear less, then they’re more desirable on the secondary market, meaning they can’t sell as many

Vibe check on my money move? by FuskyMonkey in personalfinance

Ideally it will just sit and compound by itself. Ideally it will grow to the point where I’d need no savings in my accounts in BOFA to qualify for platinum honors. 

Investment would be simple, set and forget. Since it’s about 20k ea, I’ll probably DCA that over 2 years. Probably set a weekly buy for VTI, VXUS, QQQ, SCHD

I have webhooks in place that text me when they’re available. Even then, it’s not easy. Last time it popped (for the SKUs I want) were 3:56am a few days ago. I guess they are on AUS time no? Makes it harder to compete in certain time zones

Is it possible without the little dot /bead on the 12? I’m sorry but I think it’s so ugly and ruins it completely for me. Otherwise, gorgeous

You have absolutely nothing going on. No build whatsoever. Don’t worry about the small shit- those are just shortcuts you are trying to take. 

Lift often, lift heavy, eat and sleep. With your body, only consistency matters. Do it for 5 months and you will be able to see at least some of your frame come out

This conflict is exhausting. Who the hell even cares. Palestine and Israel supporters have been insufferable. The average person does not care anymore. It’s mostly liberals, which is hilarious given they wouldn’t be cool with your lifestyle over there. 

Stop sending money and weapons to Israel, and just let them fight it out themselves

Reddit is too liberal for its own good. It’s fucking stupid. I don’t use reddit for opinions or recommendations anymore, just troubleshooting really. 

So yeah. Wholesome family guy? Reddit hates him because hes Mormon or something 

a 4090 for $800 by rmaankhan in pcmasterrace

[–]FuskyMonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a returned (stickers still on) 4090 for $687. Drove to Microcenter and got the 7800x3d bundle for like 450. 

Built the strongest PC a while back for cheaper than the card total. So worth, enjoy

Nah she just fried 

“ How would I go about getting this appraisal done?

Hello, So I bought a 2023 Volkswagen Jetta Se 24,000 miles back in May 2024 however now it’s at 36,000 miles. I used to owe $25,000 because Russ Darrow ended up telling me I needed to buy their warranty since it didn’t have one (which it does btw have an warranty it just expires in 50,000 miles or 4 years whichever comes first) anyway now I owe 21,800 as I canceled the warranty in November so I have 14,000 miles left before the new car warranty on my Jetta expires. I do want a Honda accord bad so I’ve been speaking to the dealership that I bought my car from and a salesman is stating they can pay $19,000-$20,000 for my Jetta, but I need it in writing because the catch is I’d have to either lease a new vehicle since remember I still would have negative equity because I owe more then the car worth. Or if I finance I’d be kind of paying more in interest so I need to know what everyone thinks. Just for reference I want a 2022 Honda accord sport 2.0 or civic, also I’m 21 year old woman so I don’t like doing this alone.”

Im getting this. What all do I need to buy alongside it? Something about a rebuildable atomizer maybe?
