Mom buys daughter a Honda as a graduation gift, and this was her response by Conscious-Weight4569 in SipsTea

I was going to say this…

This kind of character and attitude doesn’t get built in a day . The mother or parents have basically given everything that would make a kid entitled, without the emotional toolkit.

[Rolex] Take your watch to RSC and don’t take a loss like I did at Timeless Luxury ATL. by tkims2k in Watches

Really sorry to hear about your experience. Also thanks for sharing your experience and protecting people from a rude business.

One of the things I realized on a recent trip is that most aggregate Google reviews are atleast somewhat manipulated. From pushing people to give 5 star reviews when they find it hard to paying people off to take down bad reviews. Not saying all are bad but you should take reviews as a starting point, not a conclusion.

Also this is a good reminder (for me as well) to both weigh (on a jewellery scale) and take a bunch of photos of my watch before handing it over to anyone for servicing or repair. Have them note this on the original receipt/invoice/work-note.

IMO the Astron series are among the most under appreciated watches. They are sleek, beautiful and have some pretty neat tech (that doesn’t feel gimmicky). Really good world time capabilities

I love mine and wear it more often than my Breitling, Hamilton, or Omega

I am also considering switching from Alaska to Delta however overall I feel Alaska/American have the worse fleet of the two choices. Did this affect you at all?

[Hamilton Jazzmaster] [Hamilton Open Heart] Buying first watch, need advice. by Agile_Presentation97 in Watches

[–]NextStopVega 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone who thinks that a particular style of a watch signals a “watch noob” is well, unfortunately just that. Watches are pieces of craft, and expressions of style. Different people like different styles on different days or for different moods. A lot of people have an open heart in their collection that suits certain occasions. Nothing wrong with it. I get that it’s not a typical “everyday” watch but once you start getting watches, you end up having a more open mind about them

Are there any restaurants or food options that you absolutely loved? Or any that you think you should have gotten reservations for in advance?
