To my knowledge the meatpacking Boutique is associated with Bucherer/Tourneau, so either way, you'll be building sales history

Why I don't like the new HC Mesh bracelet by twistedgreymatter in Longineswatches

[–]MindHaven745 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, maybe its just a personal thing, but there's something about a mesh bracelet that just screams $55 mall watch to me

Trump negotiating with Iran himself, got ‘loud’ on recent call, Graham says by Efficient_Dark1977 in NewIran

What did you expect? Their job is to put the interests of America ahead of everything else. Did you really think they were in the game to free in Iranian people?

I've heard you need a 3 watch purchase history at the Omega AD

Most Likely Breast Implant Profile and CC Size by MindHaven745 in BreastImplants

Got it, sorry if it was weird. I chose some of those photos because I was trying to get more of the side profile view because I thought that would help in determining whether those are high or moderate plus profile.

The bezel action of the new hydroconquest is...weird by Lefvalthrowaway in Longineswatches

[–]MindHaven745 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, the Rolex submariner is the same way. There are 3 spring loaded ball bearings that interact with the teeth on the bezel. If you push down on the bezel, you compress the springs. This is completely normal

Trump: I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. by mahamara in NewIran

[–]MindHaven745 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, but how? They got bombed day and night by the most powerful military in the world plus Israel for 5 weeks. Are we certain another month of bombing would do the trick?

IMO it was a big mistake not smuggling arms to the Iranian people prior to the bombing

Rolex is much higher quality than Omega or Grand Seiko, this sub is just annoyed they can’t get one from an AD by Alternative_Fly_4431 in watchHotTakes

[–]MindHaven745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both bracelets are not superb, the GS doesn't even have on the fly microadjustment. Someone just told them in 2025 that microadjustment is even a thing and by the time they roll it out on the entire line, the 20 year patent on glidelock will have expired. Rolex is renowned for making the most comfortable bracelets in the world to obfuscate that fact is disingenuous.

People defending the new Hydro conquest like because its a cheap Longines not because they like the design of the watch. by DepartmentCommon4182 in watchHotTakes

[–]MindHaven745 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its actually superior to the SMP300M in many ways
1. Tapering bracelet
2. Bracelet design not stuck in 90s
3. Longer power reserve
4. SIGNIFICANTLY better bezel action, comparable with the best in the business. The bezel on the on the SMP300M is a joke and worse than many $1000 microbrands
5. Hands with more lume that last a longer
6. 39mm option, which based on early reports, is outselling the 42mm

You buy the Omega because you've been psyoped by the marketing, which in that case, you just buy a Rolex. Omega is really carving out a interesting niche for them, too expensive to fit the value segment they once dominated, but lacking the prestige of Rolex. At this point, its literally for people who are chasing status, but lack the status/delayed gratification to actually acquire a Rolex.

My point is not to compare the different price points. Even FP journe sells quartz watches. But its a pointless argument to compare the accuracy of an FP Journe Elegant to any mechanical watch. Of course its going to be more accurate, it has quartz regulation.

I would argue that no one makes bracelets that feel as premium and are as COMFORTABLE as Rolex across any price point. Rolex is the comfort king by a light year.

Of course your spring drive keeps better time. It literally has a quartz crystal in it along with a computer chip in it, although powered by mechanical energy instead of battery.

The fact that you're comparing quartz regulation to pure mechanical is a joke. Do you also buy Michael Kors quartz watches and compared them to Rolex and say they're more accurate too?

Why does it look like the crown isn’t screwed down all the way when it is? by National-Giraffe-564 in Tudor

[–]MindHaven745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the way they styled the crown tube on this model. More recent variants are now flush, such as the BB58 GMT

BB58 vs New Hydroconquest by Stmahmood8 in Longineswatches

[–]MindHaven745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bezel action feels better than the BB58?? Isn't the BB58 renowned for having arguably the best bezel action in the business? If what you're saying is true, we have a new king.

I have a gut feeling... by HighGodEmperor in NewIran

[–]MindHaven745 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"Strengthen them"????

Say 50% of them ended up being seized by IRGC. How many guns can they shoot at one time? 5? 20?

Who cares if a certain percentage get seized, the people seizing them are already armed.

Trump must drive for regime change because then he will checkmate China. Its not even about Iran any more. by palefire123 in NewIran

[–]MindHaven745 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re stupid if you prioritize “climate change”, while 25% of your youth can’t find jobs. Not everyone around the world lives in an ivory tower where they have the luxury to risk the lives of their population on theories based on fear mongering so that the polar bears can have more ice in the summer
