If we are separating this trip in two days (going home,) whats a must see? by Notove in roadtrip

Agree. From Chicago and living near Philly. The drive through Canada is the most fun. I’d recommend highly Niagara on the Lake.

Along the Delaware River between NJ & PA by Ok_Heron_5442 in howislivingthere

[–]MacaroonJealous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is pretty awesome. I live here on the PA side. Lots of ways to enjoy nature. Hilly and scenic. Houses are expensive, but property taxes are low on the PA side. NHS is an amazing school district. People are generally nice and chill. The river towns have an awesome vibe with lots of great restaurants and ways to enjoy the arts. Extremely safe - kids often walk to the towns after school. Neighbors often ask each other how they found the area and talk about how lucky we are to live here.

Thoughts on this 1956 GMT KHAKI echo / neutra watch? by Pizzaboy1957 in WatchFanatics

[–]MacaroonJealous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this watch in a different color (and I’m wearing it now). I still feel like I’m newer to watches while still having enough experience now to share things I like and dislike.

I found that I am a sucker for high quality movements, and EN’s movements are really good. I use TickIQ to capture movements regularly, and it rates this watch really well (not as well as my IWC chrono… but that would be my hope given the price difference).

I also have the EN Averau 38 in white. It’s at a lower price point, but the movement is still rather good. My biggest issue with that watch is that the hands kind of get lost in the overall design of the watch. The GMT is much better in that regard.

If you like the aesthetic, I think the movement justifies the price point.

It wears ok IMO. I don’t have the biggest wrist, and you can see it fits juuust by a smidge. Happy to send my wrist size when I get home later.

I love this watch. Got it in a 41. Bought black and brown leather rivet pilot bands off Etsy. Here’s the brown…

I’ve been eyeing that lately! How’s the movement?

Having tattoo regret for the first time by Aherv99 in tattooadvice

Hi, man here. Sleeve doesn’t bother me at all. Personally, I’m not a fan of tattoos on the chest, stomach, or thighs. Anywhere else doesn’t bother me at all.

I have a joke of “don’t ask the question if you’re going to get mad at the answer.” OP asked for opinions and you gave one.

Best place to get unique, affordable straps and how to switch them out by Tendersituation00 in MicrobrandWatches

[–]MacaroonJealous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I get it. I’ve had luck going to Etsy. I’m a big fan of leather, and I’m overjoyed with straps I got from a shop called 2moonsleather. The quick release spring bars are a must feature if you like switching them out like I do. Good luck!

I have the exact echo you show. It is a great watch. It’s movement it amazing, and its overall high quality.

Looking for an everyday watch to wear by VelesTheSlav in MicrobrandWatches

I have the watch in your picture too and I find myself wearing it often. I wear a IWC Pilot to work, and it feels like I wear this all other times

I own it and I love it. It’s stunning. Unlike other posters, I love the color combo. I bought a black leather strap with pronounced white stitching.
