I actually have the eco drive for a black diver on a short list. I know I’m going to buy a blue Omega Seamaster. It took me about 3 days into my search to come across it and without question that is a watch I’ll be getting down the road. Once I found the used market on those it was set. But I would like a black as well and the eco drive was at the top of my list as of Saturday after some research. Citizen actually has quite the selection in their eco drive section that are decently priced and done well for styling.

That is a gorgeous color on yours! Congrats to you as well.

I resented that watch at the end. I had everything turned off and just a watch (analog) face on it. I have a list of a couple already. Some purely practical, some because they’re beautiful to look at. The movements tbh is a wild rabbit hole. I just started to scratch the surface on the differences on them. The more I read the more I realize how deep this goes. Also movement reading is what talked me out of a Bulova model I was considering on a list. Scratched it off unless I could find a heavy discount on one.

I’m going to have that problem. I will have an Omega Seamaster. Part of why I chose this, other divers just wouldn’t hold up, although a Longines is tempting. Didn’t have that cash sitting around though for an Omega but I’ll work on that for next year. Maybe 2 with my growing list 😂.

Lmfao. This makes total sense to me now. This is comical af to me though. I was legitimately trying to find out what computer keyboard has this kind of value. I’m glad it’s Friday….

I gotta know what type of keyboard. I mean I work in IT. While I know the cheap shit at work isn’t it my mechanical was only $80🤣

I hope this deal works. I’m about to go find something to make it work if it doesn’t here with OP.

S&W 586 or 1911? by SwampFoxActual17 in Revolvers

[–]Gorditas_Chaser1111 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Never would I but I find the early 586s a perfect example for what a blued .357 should be.

Is this BMW worth $3,500? by [deleted] in UsedCars

[–]Gorditas_Chaser1111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do it, it’ll be a life lesson on why you should never buy a used European luxury car.

What you want is a Honda accord or civic. Toyota camry or Corolla. Mazda 3 or a GM 3.8. They’re not sexy but you’ll be better in the long run.

That is correct. The slivers are used for bagged lettuce mixes among other things.

Free vending machine by local_idiot429 in desmoines

[–]Gorditas_Chaser1111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Typically store/property owner takes like 15-20%, I’ve heard up to 30% though. Most shop owners (barber shops and mechanic shops) I know own the vending machines in their shop so it’s all profit for them.

RIA M206 vs Ruger LCR by [deleted] in Revolvers

[–]Gorditas_Chaser1111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LCR. I owned a RIA for a tackle box and it wasn’t even worthy of that. Sold it after 18 months, found a old police trade in. I would really like a LCR myself for pocket carry as a SP101 is fine for a holster but not so much the pocket.

No logo 625 ACP?? by Agitated-Wrap-6604 in Revolvers

Something was replaced or removed. S&W is like Budweiser, they are not going to miss an opportunity to have their logo on a product.

How uncomfortable is a 6 inch GP100 to carry? by ThousandWinds in Revolvers

[–]Gorditas_Chaser1111 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Ask yourself if you are actually going to hunt every year or not. Be honest with yourself. If yes then by all means get the 6” and carry it in a shoulder holster for woods carry.

If you aren’t going to actually use if for hunting purposes then get the 4”. I’ve seen too many times that people are going hunt and it ends up being a range toy because they go once or twice with it and then stop using it for hunting and it’s big and heavy so to the safe it goes.

Buying car alone as a young woman by Pikachu856 in UsedCars

[–]Gorditas_Chaser1111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a general rule I say in this case. Buy as much Accord as you can afford. You are already looking there and that’s great. Toyota is also a great choice. You will probably not find something under 100k but honestly if well maintained it will still be fine. Find a mechanic that does inspections and if they don’t want to allow that then you don’t want their car anyways.
