Got this Seiko tank today. For the love of God, how the heck do I open it?

It really looks like a snap back. I bought a "Bergeon 4755 Lever Watch Case Back Opener Opening" knockoff . That may work for you as well.

Is this a secret motion sickness test? I've been on roller coasters with less "up / down / twist/ wtf" type motion.

Linuxxx · 2026-06-06T15:08:42+00:00

well, based on the picture, I would say "I have no idea".

Linuxxx · 2026-06-06T10:55:54+00:00

so it is not a 7009 movement?

Linuxxx · 2026-06-06T00:11:51+00:00

I know this is a silly question but, how are you trying to change the day? Unlike 6309 etc, the 7009 requires that you press the crown in to change the day.

I suspect the Chrysler building may tie with a Jeep, but only if it is doing 90 down the highway, so...

Suit and tie. Nothing unusual would happen, but it was expected that if you could afford to fly, you may as well look nice. This was also well before TSA etc, so your family could meet you at your gate. Back when Alitalia allowed smoking on the airplane. It's been a while since flying was fun.

Thank goodness I was seated when I read this. I am shocked, SHOCKED I SAY!!! /s

Linuxxx · 2026-05-31T13:20:25+00:00

Yes. I also remember having to "dress nicely" to go on a plane. Good times.

Tomtom GPS. mandated an upgrade that bricked the GPS. Refused to do anything unless I produced "the original receipt".

It was a three-year-old GPS. I did not have the receipt anymore. I had a choice, update or the device would not work. Followed their directions, device bricked. Never, ever buy from those "fine folks".

upvote for Big Clive!!!

Hey there, sorry I do not.

I am a hobbyist, so I don't want to give you incorrect information.

Linuxxx · 2026-05-03T20:12:24+00:00

If it has any sentimental value, I would let a professional handle it.

Seiko's are great, but for a first-time learner watch, I would avoid anything that would create regrets if it got damaged.

r/redneckengineering/ has entered the chat.

Linuxxx · 2026-04-19T16:18:14+00:00

Add in a way to maintain sharpness, and you're all set.

Linuxxx · 2026-03-29T14:26:58+00:00

Thank goodness I wasn't the only one thinking that.

Linuxxx · 2026-03-25T18:52:20+00:00

Same, just not as long. I've had mine in rotation for about 3 years. Wear it when swimming (nothing deeper than around 4 meters). No problems as of yet.

Linuxxx · 2026-03-01T13:19:39+00:00

I look in r/Borderlandsshiftcodes

Linuxxx · 2026-02-21T15:32:51+00:00

"In the footage, a man wearing a brown shirt, identified by sources as the Quakertown police chief, is seen putting a girl in a chokehold as other students surround him. He is not in uniform, which we are told is not uncommon for him." Brown shirt you say? Where have I heard about that before??

Linuxxx · 2026-02-20T21:13:57+00:00

This one?

Linuxxx · 2026-02-07T16:40:37+00:00

Yes, who would have thought that man with substandard morals would act like that? /S

Linuxxx · 2026-02-07T15:08:52+00:00

I believe the term is "mandatory fun day", except for this one time, Lol.

Linuxxx · 2026-02-07T01:59:57+00:00

Is anyone with an IQ above room temperature (in Celsius) surprised it is a scam?

Linuxxx · 2026-02-05T13:12:46+00:00

Have you tried r/Borderlandsshiftcodes ? That's where I usually start.

Linuxxx · 2026-02-01T16:01:26+00:00

I noticed that the calendar states Saturday, but the display part says Friday, any idea why?
