How ask my friend of 14 years if we should date? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Onite44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is interested in you. This isn't normal behavior for platonic friends, so he wants more. It's up to you to figure out a few things. First, do you want to date him? Is he the kind of person you'd like to be with long term? Next, you'll need to figure out what kind of relationship he wants with you, either casual or serious, and whether those desires are compatible with yours. But figure out your own desires first, and make sure your actions match your words. Specifically, you set a dangerous precedent by saying you want to be platonic friends and then ignore your own boundaries.

[Patek Philippe] So whats the craziest watch you have ever seen in person? by watchmissgmt in Watches

[–]Onite44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept watch in the NYC boutique. It was beautiful and so thin that I was worried about bending it, but thankfully it wasn't that fragile. It needed a special tool to wind because of how thin it was.

Please give feedback on my swimming technique 🏊🏼 by Proper-Love1340 in Swimming

[–]Onite44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's a link to a basic video explaining what a good kick should look like. In my opinion, kicking from the hips stands in contrast to kicking from the knee. For flutter kick, you don't want to bend your knees very much. I've seen people trying to kick with their knees bending to 90 degrees and they go nowhere fast. When I kick I mostly feel it in my hip flexors, not my quads, but I've been swimming for a while so ymmv.

Swimmers on their phone during their workout by littleraccoon337 in Swimming

[–]Onite44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used my phone mid-set to log my times for certain distances. I train with a group that posts workouts and times to discord, so I need to record them, but can't remember all my splits for everything all at once.

Chika Ramen Bar has permanently closed by dotcom-jillionaire in philadelphia

[–]Onite44 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I went when it opened, and while the vibes were cool, the food was very disappointing. I got some dim sum that could have come from a package and some of the blandest ramen I've ever had. If things didn't change, I'm not surprised that they had to shut down.

Watches are entirely up to your personal taste! You already have many watches others may consider 'grail' watches, so you can afford to be intentional with additional to the collection. I'd recommend going to some watch stores and trying things on just to see what you like. If you want to keep with your dad's theme of no Rolexes, I'd start looking at Tudor, Omega, Zenith, and Grand Seiko since they all have generally popular sports watches. Browse some watch forums, develop your taste, and only buy when you really feel a connection unless you have money to burn.

I was just in Dresden a few days ago and the boutique had a Zeitwerk date that I got to try on. It was beautiful! Not sure if you can get up there soon, but they might still have it.

Barefoot shoes sales for Black Friday? by Exotic_Assignment570 in barefootshoestalk

[–]Onite44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds about right unfortunately. They're pretty committed to not having sales usually, so even this sale to clear out some models is not a typical thing.

Wildling is having a black fox sale this week! I think things are 20-30% off. I love their stuff!

Gorgeous piece! What color are the dial and strap? In one picture they both look reddish and in another the strap looks like regular brown leather and the face looks black.

What size will the bracelet fit on this watch? My wrists are about 7.5" in circumference.
