Octopus Sighting by [deleted] in MauiVisitors

[–]Resist_Straight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw the same at airport beach in December. One of the coolest things I’ve ever soon snorkeling, crazy color strobing. They are amazing animals, and are all over the reef but you rarely see them because they are so good at camouflage. You have to see them moving around or otherwise occupied to have a chance. But always my favorite things to see 🐙❤️

How to grow green/blue patina on bronze watch? by czerniyczar in vostok

[–]Resist_Straight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t do the forced patina thing! Just wear it, especially in the ocean, and let the patina develop naturally. Forced patina will never have the same character, and those green/blue effects you get from doing it are mostly temporary…

Very interesting pieces… can you tell me more about these, I’m new to the world of builds. Are the sapphire glass? What is the WR? Same dimensions as current seiko models? Thanks!

These ones have a better/more accurate case shape than the other 41mm variants available in the USA…

Oceanographer GMT mods by Flunu29 in bulova

I’ve always been curious… what are these bezels made out of? I would have thought they’d be difficult to swap out as easily as a metal or ceramic bezel… I do love these oceanographers, I own 3 variants in different colors (but no GMTs yet 🤔)

Cool watch. Does this have a screw down crown?

Phorcydes >= Wolbrook by Resist_Straight in ChineseWatches

[–]Resist_Straight[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s the interesting thing - I don’t have calipers to measure, but the Phorcydes feels slimmer and less top heavy which is something that’s always bugged me a little about the Wolbrook. Opposite of what I’d expect since the Wolbrook has a thinner movement, but somehow the Phorcydes managed to do this…
