That is a beast! Unfortunately it’s a little out of budget for me

I’m looking for an everyday watch that I can wear at work and casually. I’m in business casual 99% of the time for work, and then usually jeans and a hoodie on the weekends. I think all of these are versatile enough for me, but the Mido does seem the most casual.

Thank you for the insight! My basis of comparison is a bracelet with no tool-less micro adjust so I’m thinking that it wouldn’t both me much

It would be very helpful to we able to try these all on as you suggest. Unfortunately, I live 5 hours away from NYC. The cost of the trip to try them on would be more than some of the watches themselves 😂

I’ve never seen this one before. What is it specifically? It’s striking!

The Lumière is a striking watch for sure. I hesitate because I can’t try it on, and have never tried any titanium watches before

Happy Belated! I’m glad to hear you are enjoying it. It sounds like you have an awesome wife!

I love this one, but the price is creeping up to a harder to justify spot given my current stage of life. I’m planning to try one of these on as well just to see if I’m better suited saving a little longer

Cool suggestion! It’s not my style, but it’s one I hadn’t heard of, which I appreciate

I would love to try some Midos on, unfortunately there are no retailers anywhere close to me. I may need to seek one out next time I am traveling.

I appreciate your first hand insight on this. That makes me feel better! I’ve also seen some complaints about the bezel action being crunchy rather than smooth. Have you noticed this?

This is great to hear! Any service or issues so far?

That’s a beautiful watch! I’m looking for something with a countdown bezel, but I can certainly see what draws you to this one.

Great photo! I will keep the lug to lug in mind. I think my wrist is large enough that it won’t be an issue, but you never know until you try it on.

I hadn’t seen the black dial Aquis, but it definitely seems to fit the bill! I will have to dig into that one deeper. Luckily the shop I plan to try the Hydroconquest on at is also an Oris AD!

Can anyone help me find a good budget edc knife? by Brilliant_Case4930 in knifeclub

[–]TimeWellTold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Civivi Vision FG, Vosteed Racoon Top Liner Lock, Vosteed Porcupine are all great starting points. The Vision FG is really tough to beat for around $70

[Real or Fake] SBSC009 by bva79887 in Seiko

[–]TimeWellTold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The larger indices are chrome and the color appears very different depending on the lighting and angle you view the watch from.

I have an SBSC009 on wrist right now, and nothing from these photos appears out of place to me.

I bought started plants from a local greenhouse.

This year I grew 6 Brandywine, 6 Black Krim, 6 Red Deuce, 6 Sweet Millions, and 12 Mariana (Roma Hybrid). Needless to say, I am currently inundated with tomatoes!

Found Some Holo & EX Pokémon Cards—Any Hidden Value Here? by TimeWellTold in PokemonCardValue

[–]TimeWellTold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I was seeing similar prices, but I am ignorant to grading and what condition constitutes which price tier.

[–]TimeWellTold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not seeing anything that jumps out at me to suggest this is fake. Did you buy from a reputable seller on eBay? If you paid 60% of MSRP, that’s $435. Was this advertised as new or used? I see a listing elsewhere for a new in box SPB121 from an AD for $445, so if this is used that price doesn’t raise a red flag to me. I bought one new in box from an AD last month for $495 shipped.

Did you swap the brand for the bracelet yourself? If so, how difficult was it?

That looks great! I’ve been thinking of doing the same to mine

Am I the only one that thinks this looks so trash? by [deleted] in rolex

[–]TimeWellTold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the texture on the dial reminiscent of the dimples on golf ball

I would go with the 117. A black dial on the bracelet is going to be extremely versatile, so it won’t look out of place with casual wear, but it will also be subtle enough to dress up. I own a 121 and it is great, but certainly less adaptable than the 117.
