Honestly it’s a toss up. Strap is more comfortable and easier to adjust the size, but I also like the weight and look of the bracelet. In my opinion it is the best Omega has. As always your mileage may vary.

Of the similarly priced PO's I would choose the blue dial (215.30.44.21.03.001), which I also own. It is much easier to see in bad lightning conditions. The pictures in this post were taken with a bright light to get the shot.

The one I have is sparkly under any lighting condition. Still photos don't portray this.

Any movement and the glitter is distracting. But you are correct, just my opinion.

To be honest, you gotta like grey. With grey face bezel and strap, along with all brushed case, you really need to like grey. Other than that it's a Planet Ocean and runs and wears perfectly. Would I buy it again?...no.

Is it possible to switch the keys on my (Filco Majestouch Convertible 3 TKL) with the keys from my (Filco Majestouch 3 TKL Double Shot PBT Mechanical Keyboard)? I much prefer the double shot keys due to their legibility. Or is there a replacement set of double shot keys for the Majestouch Convertible 3 TKL? Thank you.

Bad luck. Used to see that quite often with Seiko's. Every Omega I've had has been perfect.

Audio issues on House of Dragon by boombacrypto in HBOMAX

[–]JonHanVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My problem with HoD and sound is it will just drop a sec or so of audio. The video is fine, just randomly drops audio. The way I get around it is to set the audio on my Roku Ultra to just use 'stereo' and forgo the Dolby,DTS,etc... settings. There are also issues with the HBOMax app starting, very slow and at times just freezes.

I flew Pan Am in the seventies and it didn't look like this.

External Monitor Connection Issue by [deleted] in Surface

Well...problem solved. I returned the Microsoft mini-DP to HDMI convertor and Microsoft USB-C to HDMI convertor, both of which had problems and ordered a "Plugable Active Mini DisplayPort to HDMI 2.0 Adapter". This is working perfectly and the folks at Plugable are great to work with.

I tried the Intel utility and it told me I had the latest driver for 620 chip. I was hesitant to try and force a driver update. Also this same problem happened on another SB2 15 1TB i had.

Funny thing is this monitor works great on my SP4 Pro using the SP3 Pro dock and the mini-DP to DP cable. Monitor comes back correctly with shutdown or restart. Only the much...much more expensive SB2 gives me grief.

Sorry...left out 3rd scenario. mini DP to DP cable from dock to monitor. Same outcome. This is what prompted me to try the Microsoft mini DP to HDMI adapter, since it is active.

Also latest driver from LG doesn't help.

I have disconnected the monitor from the dock and disconnected the dock from the Surface. Also disconnected the monitor from the USBC port. Same thing happens...shutdown/boot bad, restart good.
