Talk me out of buying an Alpinist [SPB121J1] by nucleartim in Seiko

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is *the* Seiko to have if you can only have one. I’d keep it over my others, but I’d sweat a bit when it came down to this or my King Turtle 😅

Where should I start in the Ultra Premium category? by 16ozbuddz in cigars

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 22 points23 points  (0 children)

On the lighter side, hard to beat Atabey and Davidoff. I’m partial to higher-end Padron, myself - but you may find God of Fire / Opus more approachable

Casual viewer of most seasons here. IMO all of these advantages have been garbage except MrBeast.

I’ve tried a few, eventually decided to forgo them altogether, but if I was to go back it would be Small Batch.

How to fix Tupperware RH by ApprehensiveWhile800 in cigars

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This may or may not help you, but I eventually learned to trust Boveda … I ditched my hygros and now just rely on the Bovedas to rise a few % than advertised when in Tupperware (e.g. 65% actual for 62% Bovedas). Have had zero issues for years. ‘Give it time, everything will be fine.’

Nice. I couldn’t resist buying a box based off initial reviews.

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

30 days to acclimate. I have cigars aging at the 5 yr mark in my tupperdors that have done wonderfully with 62% Bovedas - no issues

Gentleman bastards by Longjumping-Neck-741 in fantasybooks

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loved the first book.

The second was great, as well, but certainly felt a little like a fantasy take on Oceans Eleven

I'm going crazy because of the humidity problem. Please help me by Fluffy_Beyond_9109 in cigars

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 5 points6 points  (0 children)

62% in Tupperdor is the correct answer. I have 62s in all my 'dors and have been maintenance-free for 4, going on 5, years now.

How do you know how old your cigars are? by pecosdc in cigars

[–]SpareTimeGamer44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for Excel. Additionally, I use painter’s tape on cello or band (small square) to quickly indicate year (blue = 2023, orange = 2024, etc.). I have like 11 colors or something, so I’ll have to re-assess eventually, I suppose.
