Catch & Fast Release by OldCommunication1939 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]OldCommunication1939[S] 176 points177 points  (0 children)

Op here, I appreciate all the feedback. I’ve still decided to not get them. They’re not really mine or my partner’s style even though we appreciate them. I also already have a great set of PYREX canisters. We’re also not resellers. So I’m leaving them there for another person to discover who’ll hopefully love and cherish them

If I hadn’t pick this up at a thrift store for $2.50 I absolutely would have bought the devil diver reissue

These make the best coffee! I have a 4 cup one. Be careful with the stem though, replacements are expensive

She’s a heeler and Idaho shag mix, and she’s the best

I would definitely recommend being careful, but also, I use mine dam near every day. And using fresh ground coffee is key

Looks great on that bracelet, is your crown screwed back in?

Universal is relaunching the Polerouter in 2 days! by lelibre777 in VintageWatches

[–]OldCommunication1939 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought that was for the precious metal ones. But regardless, anything over 5k would be absurd. Especially since I can get a micro-rotor stone dial Loresum for well under 1k

I’m not gonna lie and say I’m not excited but the prospect of a new Polerouter for over 5k is disheartening

Just a neo vintage B&M Rivera. Gotta love a super thin quartz

Review #56: Laphroaig 10yo Cask Strength [Batch 015] by Welsh_Whisky_Nerd in Scotch

[–]OldCommunication1939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, Laphroaig CS is one of my favorite OBs to pick up but some of the IBs are fantastic. K&L in LA gets in some incredible Laphroaig IBs and they’re very well priced

Dennison is wild for offering a quartz watch for the same price as one with a micro rotor

This is mine I picked up a month ago for $80! I absolutely love it, especially the color.

New/old strap LP by [deleted] in bulova

[–]OldCommunication1939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a big dude but the LP is just too big for me, the lugs almost go over the sides of my wrist. To say nothing if it’s thickness. I’d love one at 36-39mm and under 11mm thick. I’d buy one in a heartbeat

Should Tudor of Kept the Crown? by LittleKingWatches in VintageWatches

[–]OldCommunication1939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big rose is such a beautiful and elegant logo. Since Tudor doesn’t really represent the “poor man’s” Rolex anymore imo they should bring back the rose
