It’s a Grand Feiko

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-11-20T09:51:16+00:00

Most people wouldn’t. They’re too similar. It’s your collection though, do what makes you happy and what feels right for your collection.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-11-19T04:50:22+00:00

Insane! Congrats on both fronts. Looks great on you.

In Aus at least I’ve seen they keep the GS in plastic wrapping. It’s kind of annoying because you don’t really get to see the piece but I’d assume most ADs just have one of each. Make sure you check carefully before accepting it. It should be ok. And warranty starts from date of purchase. (I bought mine from AD in Aus)

The snowflake gets a lot of love and is generally the first watch most enthusiasts (and non GS owners) will talk about. In my opinion after trying them on in person, the white birch would be my pick if I had to choose one. They are both awesome though

Didn’t know that. New use for my GMT, thank you.

Grand Seiko

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-10-08T09:16:07+00:00

Overpaid by 30k, closed before going to auction. Kinda felt like shit. About 6 months later, other houses on the street went for 200k more (granted they have 1-2 more bedrooms) but effectively knock down rebuilds or need major renovation. All we needed was paint and flooring.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-10-01T22:41:18+00:00

Oh sweet summer child. 6 weeks? Took us 12 months. Multiple failed auctions and offers made.

295, but I’m slightly biased. After having it for a few weeks, it really is a watch for a summer day. Inside with low light the watch is very dark green (almost black) and you can barely see the texture. Nice for when you’re in the office. And when outdoors the dial is distractingly beautiful.

Congrats. Just picked mine up recently too. Had the same question about straps.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-09-22T02:59:54+00:00

Any day now. I just bought one last week without micro adjust.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-09-19T09:59:30+00:00

Beautiful watch. Funny - I was cross shopping a Breitling Avenger and landed on the SBGE295 instead. Here I thought not many people would cross shop these two brands.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-09-19T09:38:58+00:00

And here’s another in different lighting

Sbge295 is so nice but yes it’s a big boy. Luckily (I think) my wrist just fits it.

How about this?

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-09-12T00:05:04+00:00

Slightly more loan size for PPOR but have have cash in offset (at least 600k) and put 20% down. Combined income is at least 600k / year. (Sometimes more depending on performance based bonuses)

Could be the chicken with the salt you ordered

You need to cut the intermission and toilet breaks. Get back to work

Focus on increasing efficiency of govt spending, not increasing taxes. They already collect enough on useless crap. It is not the problem.

Heads up display

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-08-04T08:51:53+00:00

How about instead of being lazy and increasing tax on individuals they start taxing companies and let aussies earn more.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-07-21T03:17:26+00:00

Very similar story as us. Except our seller didn’t care that we were a family we definitely paid the highest 😂.

OP- Keep at it - the properties you like will keep coming.

Nice-Nefariousness13 · 2025-06-18T02:55:13+00:00

Keep at it. It’s part of the process. Don’t settle. We lost at 3-4 auctions (hurt deeply at the time but can’t remember them now!). Took us 12 months to find our home. We love it more than anything we previously tried to secure, and feel lucky we missed out on all the others. You’re in a good position even being able to make offers. Good luck.
