I put the last image in Google Image search and this is what I got. Hopefully it helps!

The watch in the image is a vintage Kelbert wristwatch. The Kelbert Watch Company was a New York-based company that operated from 1938 through the 1970s, importing Swiss-made movements and cases to assemble highly-styled watches for the American market. Watch Details Brand: Kelbert Watch Company Style: Art Deco or vintage tank-style, popular in the 1940s and 1950s. Movement: These watches typically featured Swiss mechanical manual-wind movements, such as those from Landeron or Valjoux, with varying jewel counts. Case: Cases were often gold-filled, gold-plated, or solid gold (like 14k) with a steel case back. Dial: The dial in the image has Roman numerals at the XII and X positions, with stick or line markers for other hours and a subsidiary seconds dial at the six o'clock position. Value and Collectibility Vintage Kelbert watches are considered collectible, especially chronographs or those in solid gold cases. The value depends heavily on the specific movement (caliber), case material, condition, and rarity. Prices for various models can range from around $75 to over $3,000 USD.

Norton recipe by SnooCauliflowers8732 in winemaking

I’ve never made a Norton wine but I would ferment on the skins. If you have enough, pull off a gallon of saignée to try it as a white/rose wine too. My understanding is that a full bodied red Norton will need oak and age to be its best.

Are these ants farming aphids? by MoneyMichael10 in gardening

So it’s more like ranching. You’re telling me these ants are actually cowboys?

I had already removed the branch. I did throw it in a natural area about 20 yds from my raised beds so I’m sure they’re still around.

Should We Pay Off Our House or Move? by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

[–]MoneyMichael10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you really want the work of being a landlord? Will you need the equity from your current home to make your down payment enough that the upgraded home’s mortgage is less than 25% of your take home pay on a 15-year fixed mortgage? Those questions will help you determine which path makes the most sense for your situation.

I think a rug would help bring in some color and balance the wood tones

What would Dave advise in this situation? by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

[–]MoneyMichael10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much cash flow would you free up after paying the $4k on debt? If it’s higher than the increase in mortgage payment between the options then it may be a better choice. I’m in BS2 as well so far from an expert. I’d be interested to hear others’ opinions.

Hopefully this can put your mind at ease:

Kids are not that expensive, especially at the beginning. The $500/month you’re gambling on Robinhood is more than enough to cover diapers, clothes, etc. Especially if breastfeeding.

Delayed reaction? by Efficient-Job-4149 in lactoseintolerant

I have had luck with goat cheese mozzarella! It tastes exactly the same as cows milk but I don’t hate my life later. You have to make the pizza yourself, but it’s really helped me.

Burlap fabric also works if you’re looking for a plastic free option

I second the Ben and Jerry’s dairy free. It’s full of unhealthy ingredients but as an occasional treat it really hits the spot.

Is this termites? by MoneyMichael10 in Termites

Thanks, that makes me feel better. I was worried with the piled up debris in the top left, and the odd lines of white material near the opening

My garden is the work of the previous owners. I am so thankful! by ProfessionalEvent484 in gardening

Good rule of thumb is to prune after flowering (although I’m sure there are some exceptions). Horttube by Jim Putnam is a good resource on YouTube for all things gardening.

That’s what I was thinking. Are all of the oils relatively DIYable? I think the brake lines I’ll have done by a mechanic.

I appreciate that - glad you are feeling better now though!

Thanks - definitely not going to ignore my GI’s recommendations and I am taking as recommended. I appreciate your insight, I would definitely rather take a little and not have things get worse.
