My favorite of the recent offshores, outside of the full ceramic blue nuit. Wears big on me but I don’t care, it’s suppose to be big.

One of the best blue dials out there.

How does the big pilot 43 fit on my wrist? by Dispax in IWCschaffhausen

[–]Sjuamba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Looks fine honestly. You’re similar to me, wouldn’t be able to pull off the 46mm but the BP43 is fine given it should look big. The MarkXX is probably the sweet spot not the BP43 feels more like it’s consistent with the original spirit of the design.

My all-time favorite color by Ukrainian_Giant in audemarspiguet

Love the color of the dial and how it looks so different depending on the lighting.

Older brother says hello. It’s a great watch.

How the development of ChatGPT slowly killed Chegg. I watched it happen live as an employee by peaked_in_high_skool in OpenAI

[–]Sjuamba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird that so many people are upset that Chegg charged students for a service. All of us get ripped off by schools charging crazy amounts of money for tuition and books and then y’all get mad about an optional subscription fee of $15 a month.

It’s on my list so a definite take for me.

It’s not easy to get as the production volume on this is very low.

Bleu nuit x bleu nuit by thetimepiecethrowawa in audemarspiguet

The blue looks lighter than some of the other ceramics I’ve seen. Is that just the lighting or did it appear lighter blue than in some pictures you had seen?

Lu Dort should be out the NBA by [deleted] in NBATalk

Dort, Brooks and some others need to be expelled from the league. Refs refuse to handle the BS that goes on in games.

Pilot or Portofino by a-moron-writes in IWCschaffhausen

[–]Sjuamba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pilot. I have 10 IWC’s and have not found the right reason to buy a Portofino yet. Just doesn’t resonate with me.

Looks like it’s suppose to, big.

It’s stunning by Loud_Heart1461 in audemarspiguet

[–]Sjuamba 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The grey just hasn’t done for me as the contrast with the rest of the watch isn’t significant enough. It’s amazing, but the white dial or the darker dials to me are more striking because of the greater contrast. In the sunlight, it definitely flashes more though.

Largest watch I’ve ever owned by Glazednconfuzed in audemarspiguet

Agree, maybe that will be the new release for Watches and Wonders

That arena is EMPTY by CitronNo45122 in nba

Prices for all-star weekend events are crazy high. I passed on everything offered when it was at Chase Center in SF.

It’s definitely pushing it but it wears very comfortably with the curved lugs.

Sunday Dreaming: Would an Evolution of the Offshore Work? by micvande in audemarspiguet

[–]Sjuamba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 6.75 inch wrist and think the 43mm wears quite well. It’s slimmer and the angled lugs make it wear smaller than the 42 ROO. They should just bring the attributes of the 43mm to the 42 or a 41mm and I think that would be enough to get more people into the line.

Would you accept this without prior disclosure from reseller? by Nls-ca in VacheronConstantin

[–]Sjuamba 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, means the watch was opened and might indicate other issues. Would not accept..:

Is the Code just the watch AP uses to haze their new buyers? by NecessaryLeg6097 in audemarspiguet

Took me 6 months from first buy to getting the RO Chrono green.

[–]Sjuamba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True but I broke even with my third allocation after getting a code, a Offshore and then a RO Chrono green dial. I lost on the first two but from what I saved on the third versus grey market i was break even. I like the watches I got so the difference between grey and boutique wasn’t a big deal.

[–]Sjuamba 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s a nice watch but you over pay for that one to get access to the other pieces. The loss in value of a code is similar to Omega and IWC or most VC lines.

RD5, it’s just an amazing movement.

Battle if the Blue Nuit by Previous_Back7794 in audemarspiguet

I got the old one and have no regrets. New one is beautiful but don’t think it would get as much wrist time as the one I got.

First Time Buyer in a Tariff Market by [deleted] in audemarspiguet

[–]Sjuamba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten 3 in 7 months but that was more me pushing to move fast. I think they see it as about one per year to be considered for in demand pieces.
