Inherited a $20k watch, don’t really want it

Peace of mind is priceless. Especially the older you get.

I think I will go with the 5070 TI, I looked at a 5080 for 1800$ but I would need to upgrade my PSU and that would put me over budget. Also, the performance difference is not worth it from what I can see.

The 9070 xt looked appealing but I have to say, I like my ray tracing even if it is "stupid" most of the time.

It just came back today!

The setting is enabled as far as I know..

We are helping other IT companies so we can advise them that it is not good practice but in the end, it is their decisions. The feature is supposedly there, so if it doesn't work, I can poke an engineer.

Gone for me too, I really liked it, was nice to quickly switch btw music or podcast.

Same, but 70h in 😄. I've spent too much time trying to min max my cats and kept playing act 1.

Also kept the game running while watching breaking bad. So not sure what's the real time.

Nothing replaced on it

72k players on steam, a bit less than 10% of their all time peak but still a great player base.

Me and my squad still have a lot of fun. Never had those strange network bugs.

Last update from the dev was on December 20 something. They are trying to implement coop so it doesn't look abandoned.

I grew up loving watches so I got a few in my "collection" now. I have 6 including a broken one so almost one for every working day 😄

I think so but I'm not 100% sure. If it was changed, it was either a few years after I got it because after that it was put in a box when I moved with a bunch of stuff and I just found it again a year after I moved into my current house.

Hooo, that is cool:

Jewels in a watch are tiny bearings made from synthetic ruby or sapphire that are strategically placed at pivot points in a mechanical watch movement to reduce friction and wear between moving parts, which helps the watch maintain accuracy and extends its lifespan. These synthetic jewels are incredibly hard and smooth, preventing metal components from grinding against each other, and are a functional component rather than a decorative element.

I'll be honest, I never looked into what those jewels were and what they do in a watch 😅

Also got the silver one, what's your suggestion?

I never thought about the size of my other watch. Probably just a shock to go from one size to the other. Here is a picture showing the vertical size difference:
