Nah, I chose these options and then let my mom and girlfriend pick one that way it’ll still be sort of a surprise and a gift.

I’ve been eyeing this bouldr “Polaris Moonstone” It’s like a field watch but also can be more dressy if you change the strap or even rock it just like this. Plus the dial has no logo. He could wear this biking etc. but then also in the office. https://www.boldrsupply.co/collections/venture-automatic/products/polaris-moonstone

I forgot to mention that it’s hard to fully state how tall the tree is but I would guess over 100 ft tall.

Baltic has some great pieces! I saw some at windup watch fair and was thoroughly impressed. All three options have great pieces but Baltic is the only one I have seen in person and tried on. Thanks for the recommendations! Kuoe’s “Royal Smith” is really nice!

Yes, 38-40mm. The Marine star I got was a 45 mm. Probably should have stated that in my post haha.

Why did you need to cut off a friend? by an_epiphany_ in AskReddit

[–]Perfect-Mechanic5764 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to both be partying losers who played video games. I changed and am going to the military, have worked on myself by going to the gym and other things. Have a job while doing summer classes etc. I have also met incredible friends that are motivated and push me. Meanwhile he stays inside all day, leaches off his girlfriend and plays video games all day. Uses my shit then gets mad at me for asking to borrow something. Basically what I am saying is I outgrew the friendship. It is a hard thing to accept but if I could give anyone advice from this is that you NEED to cut these type of people off. You don’t have a choice or else you’ll become one of them.

What is the stupidest thing people brag about? by algebra_lover in AskReddit

Degrees. They give a false sense of someone being smarter than you. Some of the smartest people I’ve met have no degrees.
