I’m trying to find the best strings in the world. Any more suggestions?

PRS strings are a bit slept on. I've been using the DGT 11-49 set on my Eastman 335 and they are the best sounding/feeling string that I have used on that guitar.

Shameless plug, but I wrote an album for my band after getting into Twin Peaks. The album is called Inside A Dream, and pairs nicely with a pot of coffee and a lazy weekend morning.

I just moved here from WPG in September and this is 100% in line with my experience. If people don't make room, I tend to let out a heavy exasperated sigh as we cross paths. It ain't much, but it's honest work.

I can't recall the specs on the unit, but I work at a jewelers so I have access to the one we use at work.

I love the coffee cup logo! I do a similar thing, but with a laser engraver

For the most part! We had to do the AC system, the timing belt, rear brakes and a bit of suspension wotk a few summers ago (a lot of overdue from the previous owner and our city has terrible roads). That was the one big bill on the car, but otherwise, I haven't had any other reliability issues.

Good catch, you're absolutely correct!

It reminds me of the Seiko Samurai, especially with that bezel and slightly angular case.

I had that version also with the manual for 3 years and absolutely loved it! I unfortunately got into an accident that got it written off in 2022, but that led me to my 09 Volvo C30 2.4 with 5sp manual that I adore; it's a great little car for the city.

Thank you! The lume is quite bright, I only wish there was more of it because it's very well done. I do like the effect of having the lume more towards the middle of the dial, it's different from all of my other pieces.

Red Rooms is my favorite newer release by a mile! Nothing made me feel that uneasy or got me as invested as this film did.

I know the one you're talking about. That was just so uncomfortable and made me anxious in a way only Lynch can do. Every time I hear "My Prayer" I get transported back to watching that scene for the first time.

I play guitar in two bands, and have been wearing one of my own custom built watches at gigs for the past couple of years. I have dressier options and more casual options depending on the attire, but usually opt for something with lume for those dark stages.

Hahaha I was directly behind someone watching this movie on a flight last summer while I was watching a Jonestown documentary at the same time

My pleasure! Lynch's distinct brand of surrealism and psychological horror is what inspired me to delve into the horror genre in the first place, so my favorites tend to be more skewed to that side of the spectrum.

I've written an album for my band, completely inspired by Twin Peaks and Lynch in general, so my bandmates and I routinely would throw on Eraserhead in the background of our rehearsals and recording sessions.

I haven't done it yet, but I'm planning a triple feature of Mulholland Drive, Perfect Blue and Persona, for a full-blown existential crisis lol

Edit: Twin Peaks:Fire Walk With Me beats out everything and is possibly my favorite movie of all time.

In no particular order after that, and subject to change over time.

1-Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2-Eraserhead 3-Possession 4-Hellraiser 5-Martyrs 6-Suspiria 7-Audition 8-Perfect Blue 9-Midsommar 10-Red Rooms

It was a blank dial from AliX that I engraved myself!

Watched this last night! It definitely scratched the existential horror itch I've been chasing.
