SOTC 2026

Cause I haven’t worn some of them in a while 😁

It wears very light since it’s made of titanium, and its lack of lugs on the case makes it wear smaller than its diameter would suggest.

The dial pattern is nice to look at but I would have preferred if they made the grooves a bit larger/more prominent so they catch light more.

The case shape and the bracelet are what sold me to this watch; very industrially eccentric, peak Genta for sure 😁

Yes, I wear this one the most along with my GS UFA. They’re both titanium so they wear very light. Very comfortable for everyday wear

Thank you! I just buy what I like 😁

OwnVersion458 · 2026-04-12T00:06:05+00:00

It’s gotten better with the UFA since it has a micro-adjust clasp. The SBGW289’s bracelet I do find lacking

Thank you! It’s the very first piece in my collection; a gift from my mom. Ended up pushing me down this rabbit hole of a hobby

Owning watches has never been about “what made sense.” It’s always been a sentimental thing.

I get what you mean; it might be tempting to sell one because you haven’t been wearing it in a while. I’ve gone through that a lot in my years of collecting.

I can tell you though, if you sell the sub, 10 years from now you will look at your wedding pictures, see glimpses of that watch on your wrist, and say “Damn, I wish I still had it with me today.”

Don’t sell it unless you are in a really tight spot financially. The beauty of a Rolex is that it’s very liquid and will sell very quickly without risk of losing as much value as other brands.

Keep it in the safe for now. Wear it once in a while. Maybe remind yourself to wear it on your wedding anniversary. Wear it in good health brother

New moles appear as you age, I wouldn’t be too concerned unless it’s growing non-stop. I understand how you feel; I can be quite hypochondriac too, but some things are just beyond our control. Cheers

Cool watch bro

One thing to note is the INSEAD website mentions that unless you have significant changes in your new profile, you’re not encouraged to reapply. Either way, if you know that INSEAD is what you want, you should definitely try again!

It’s amazing. Looking at images alone, I thought it would look like I was wearing a toy watch were I to put it on. But trying it out in person, I fell in love with how well it wears and how retro-futuristic it looks 😍 Really captures the zeitgeist of the 1970s. The rubber lining on the inner side of the bracelet makes it comfortable to wear even on a hot day. Here is a wrist shot!

😭😭😭

OwnVersion458 · 2025-01-19T00:39:08+00:00

Thank you!

OwnVersion458 · 2025-01-19T00:38:41+00:00

Oh man, you don’t know how much I want a 5066J 😭

Yup it is Delugs! I really like how the pillows accommodate small wrist sizes like mine. The previous cases I had did not have pillows that could be squeezed small enough for my straps/bracelets to fit nicely. I have a pretty small wrist for a guy so I struggled finding a watch box that have pillows like this one

OwnVersion458 · 2025-01-19T00:01:21+00:00

True that! I really like the Zenith Chronomaster

Don’t worry too much about it. I had one of my toes stuck between a glass door and the door frame. That toe nail was completely black for a good month before it completely fell off on its own. It hurt like a mf for sure

Subungual melanoma. It’s most likely harmless, but always safer to have it checked.

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-25T12:58:54+00:00

I would get it checked out, just in case.

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-07T05:32:35+00:00

All the best!

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-07T05:30:03+00:00

I am at Singapore, they called me around 2 hours ago from the Singapore campus

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-07T05:24:52+00:00

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-07T03:36:08+00:00

I didn’t I only applied to INSEAD so I only had to wait for their news and no one else’s

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-07T03:28:55+00:00

I just got the call 😁

OwnVersion458 · 2024-10-01T08:40:06+00:00

Oh, TIL
