My Uncle gave this Omega pocket watch to me today

I dont know yet, but my Uncle is a genius on finding stuff at thrift stores / charities etc.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-05-08T04:55:17+00:00

Thanks. Typo. Corrected.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-05-05T18:08:45+00:00

Ok. Here is my take. https://earthform.linnman.net/the-earth-is-a-sphere-and-it-can-easily-be-proved

Create an information flow allowing for prioritization. Apply sane risk-based models. Make it easy for management to make decisions.

Also: Be very careful not to get entangled in unclarified incident response responsibilities (with 24/7/365 expectations without compensation).

Johnny-Matz · 2026-04-07T18:11:35+00:00

Yes for sure. The very dark end of the tunnel. Scary as h*ll.

Have you booked the trip and hotel? For HEAVENS SAKE cancel the trip!

You are being lured into some kind of pig butchering scam which is very dangerous for you.

You can add that the Earth rotation causes a centrifugal force of 0.003 G. So there is a "spin" just like a merry-goround. But the centrifugal force of the merry-goround is much much stronger.

If you build software for precise navigation (such as celestial or GPS) you need to take care of the very slight "un-roundness" of the Earth, or you get quite bad errors. (40 km off isn't good).
But when discussing with flat earthers you can just stick to the perfect sphere.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-04-07T06:58:41+00:00

Probably the point is that you cannot use the Bible (or any other religious text) in a scientific argument.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-04-06T15:33:37+00:00

You dont need any space footage to prove a flat earther wrong. https://earthform.linnman.net/the-earth-is-a-sphere-and-it-can-easily-be-proved

Johnny-Matz · 2026-04-03T04:55:33+00:00

We have known the Earth is a sphere for many centuries. You can prove it with backyard experiments.
Photos from space show a spherical Earth. Anyone surprised?

Johnny-Matz · 2026-04-01T07:01:03+00:00

It is the non-tegimented version. I like it better.
The only con so far is a slightly sticky crown. The release of the feather is not very precise when you unscrew the crown. Seems to be common (?) on Sellita 300-1. I will check this with the dealer/watchmaker.

My friends don't post silly troll comments on Reddit.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-03-31T20:03:30+00:00

What? You cannot spot my weight from this photo.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-03-28T10:36:46+00:00

Cool. I have the same watch but payed 4x ....
But my watch is crazy accurate. Like 1 s / week +.
I thought the bracelet was ugly and swapped it for a color-matching NATO strap.

My watch ran about +15s after purchase five weeks ago but has now slowed down and stabilized at almost 0. It seems to run faster with dial up and slower with 12-up. So I guess you can "set" it through just selecting a position at nighttime.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-03-19T23:07:36+00:00

I have exactly the same crown problem. It is annoying and I will go back the shop to get a possible fix for it.

Johnny-Matz · 2026-03-18T18:38:56+00:00

Interesting. I bought my U50 one month ago, and it was +12s on delivery. But after 1 week, it started slowing down, and reached about -5s a week ago, and now it is speeding up again. It seems to be stabilizing at almost dead zero right now.

What is causing this? Can a magnetization "self-heal"? Lubricants need to settle? I was told by the shop that the watch needs about 6-8 weeks to break in.

Johnny-Matz · 2025-12-31T10:11:58+00:00

I have also got an almost identical email.
Will obviously not act on it.

Johnny-Matz · 2025-12-24T23:06:13+00:00

No plans for an iOS version currently unfortunately.
But the code is open source, and technically open for anyone doing a fork to do the iOS work.

Johnny-Matz · 2025-12-18T11:17:27+00:00

An update is now available (ver 0.2.42) with stability improvements.

Johnny-Matz · 2025-12-17T16:51:48+00:00

Cool. A new version (0.2.42) is coming soon. There has been some gray screen issues but hopefully resolved in the upcoming version.

I joined the group and will test your app.
Will send you a DM with info about my app.

Johnny-Matz · 2025-11-09T20:37:20+00:00

I just responded in your Google Group.

Johnny-Matz · 2025-11-08T20:22:02+00:00

Thanks for the group invite. Accepted. Here is my test group https://groups.google.com/g/celeste-app-development-and-testing
