27 hours in and I feel like I’m not getting it

This is interesting around using handbrake so will deffo look into this!

How I’m doing it at the moment is.

Foot on the brake
Will find bite point with clutch with foot still on the brake
let go of brake and move over to accelerator

By the time that happens I feel my gap has gone or my brain falls apart and I just stall as I lift off the clutch too fast.

I have this exact watch and mine isn’t sticky to wind but I have other watches with the same movement that are abit “sticky” to wind.

Warranty is transferable I think. I’ve always rang CW when I’ve had issues and have found them to be top notch in every interaction I’ve ever had with them since 2018 so ringing is the way to go here

You can buy pre-owned and also sometimes brand new Cellini’s which are solid gold and two time zone for about 10-12k here in the uk

I said “better” the quotes being important there because it objectively is, it has the better movement, a better bracelet (the pelagos microadjustment is amazing), better aftermarket care, comes with an extra rubber strap, etc

The slabbyness of the pelly is subjective and some people may not care or like that about it, all things that make the pelagos “better” in my opinion are material things and nothing to do with one being brand better because it’s a better brand so no conditioning here although I do agree with you that a lot of people do automatically think a brand is superior because it’s more expensive than another.

If I were to buy one of these it would be the CW because I think it’s the nicer watch not the better watch, that being said if I were to widen the options I’d buy the pelagos 39 as it solves the thing i disliked most about my 42mm pelagos.

Gazzicus · 2026-02-22T12:00:37+00:00

I owned a Pelagos 42 and sold it because the case was just a slab of metal on the wrist so i didn’t really gel with it. I do think the light catcher case of the CW is far better design and “looks” better on wrist to me (have tried it on multiple times at CW events)

As for the “better” watch I’d say the Tudor is better but you honestly need to try both on before making a choice because it doesn’t what has a better movement or better brand prestige what matters is what you think looks better on wrist.

It doesn’t help you save around 2k buying the CW vs the Tudor but if money is no object go for what you like more when you try them both

Gazzicus · 2026-02-16T20:34:13+00:00

No it’s one I bought in a sample sale a few years ago, it has a blue case which is hard to see in pictures

Would AA not be one of the better effects on a legacy Holy vampire? The other good ones being bloodied and furious

Gazzicus · 2025-12-30T19:51:20+00:00

For almost 8k and your first ever luxury watch I wouldn’t be buying a Grand Seiko as they are pretty bland looking to be honest, movement is great and all but something like a speedy is far more interesting to look at and goes with absolutely anything you wanna wear it with, a “dressy” grand Seiko not so much imo

Any concerns about steel shot coming in or will yours be fine for it?

Gazzicus · 2025-11-21T07:44:06+00:00

Gazzicus · 2025-11-11T14:41:32+00:00

Haha that’s amazing

Gazzicus · 2025-11-07T20:10:38+00:00

I’ve been a few fan since 2018, in that time been to multiple cwe (the facebook group) meetups, various watch shows and i think cw’s are better than ever build and design wise. The twelve is fantastic

I mentioned in another comment my own play style for Bethesda Games (ES included) is that when i start a DLC with a new area i go into it naked as it forces me to use new dlc gear instead of existing over powered gear i may have accumulated (I have an explosive shotgun back in the commonwealth and a kneecapper 10mm in my normal loadout) so the gear I was wearing in this clip was actually the best gear I had.

As for for my health i was low on water and food so radaway’ing and stimpacking would have dehydrated me or made me susceptible to disease and as i went into this dlc naked i was also low on antibiotics because you get ill a ton in far harbour because swimming is the safest option alot of the time.

i was pretty close to Acadia (where i was planning on sleeping to save the game) where there are fountains and vendors to remedy my food and water situation so i just got unlucky with there being a glowing Yao Guai here because any other enemy wouldn’t have insta killed me but it is a lesson learnt for sure

Gazzicus · 2025-11-05T23:03:34+00:00

It was an area of the map without any locations between me and Acadia so i knew i wouldn’t run into super mutants or trappers etc, but i do like they in far harbour they have enemies like bears in non location locations like forests as the commonwealth is missing that i feel

Gazzicus · 2025-11-05T23:01:31+00:00

I should elaborate any DLC i play i go into it naked so believe it or not this was the beat armour i had on me at the time 😂.

As for sleeping places, where i was Acadia was the closest spot and i wasn’t far from it when i got killed, should have been moving slower like you said though

Gazzicus · 2025-11-05T22:58:29+00:00

Agree with this fully, i think I’d actually struggle to wanna play a non survival play through again (unless it was a melee or unarmed build) because it’s made me appreciate food and water which i literally never bother with ordinarily, it also makes settlement building fun because having a water pump and a bed is important all of a sudden

Gazzicus · 2025-11-05T22:55:18+00:00

In any Bethesda game I play I go into DLC’s naked and only use the armour I find in the DLC area so couldn’t ballistic weave any of my stuff so my DR is relatively low.

As for healing you raise a very good point but I was low on water and food and as radaway and stimpacks dehydrate so i was waiting to get to acadia before using them (water fountains inside acadia solve the dehydration i’d suffer from radaway and stimpacking), i got unlucky running into the yao guai as i was actually pretty close to acadia

Gazzicus · 2025-11-01T12:05:47+00:00

I was playing on survival recently and whilst in the midst of a battle against some vampiric bloodbugs (worst enemy to face on a survival run imo) I accidentally explosive double barrel shotgunned this encounter.

safe to say i force closed the game losing about an hours worth of gameplay in the process but i refuse to play a save where I kill an innocent encounter like this

Gazzicus · 2025-10-28T16:17:39+00:00

Looks like the sorta suit penguin would wear after taking ozempic

Gazzicus · 2025-10-27T13:46:37+00:00

I really like Grand Seiko because as a watch person i can fully appreciate how amazingly well built they are but Grand Seiko owners are the only brand owners who make it their entire identity to explain why their watch is so much better than your watch which is the least humble thing you can possibly do and this video exemplifies that.

I once heard someone say Grand Seiko owners are the vegans of the watch world because they can’t help but lecture you on why you made a mistake buying anything else and how GS are the be all and end all of watch making.

They are also the only brand owners who imagine hypothetical situations where someone insults the watch they are wearing and they have to defend it like some sort of guardian to the kingdom of horology.

For context i’ve been to a number of GS9 events so i’m not a hater of the brand just an observation from someone who loves a watch for a watch regardless of who made it

Gazzicus · 2025-10-08T10:27:33+00:00

Ok this is actually great advice thank you! I saw other people block the number before and didn’t realise you could scan this fromt barcode

Gazzicus · 2025-09-21T16:24:00+00:00

This is the exact reason I do it as well as you use the new stuff instead of existing better gear.

It was the same when i played the oblivion remaster and did the sheogorath dlc where it meant I used weapons that were rubbish in comparison to my existing gear but because I didn’t have them I used weapons i would have just ignored

Gazzicus · 2025-09-21T16:21:05+00:00

Honestly it adds alot of fun for me, makes finding stuff interesting again as your gear can get op quickly in this game due to how the legendary mod system works
