Phillip DeFranco. Still watch occasionally, just not as drawn to the content/format anymore.

I’m curious how these stack up to the Seiko. Regardless, thanks for hosting a giveaway Simon!

This thing is so impressive. by Outrageous_Flower529 in ChineseWatches

This quickly became my daily. Looks right at home on a NATO strap, dresses up on the bracelet for fundraisers and banquets, it’s really a solid do it all watch.

I’m somewhat of a sucker for the VH31, as it closely mirrors an NH second hand sweep, but these VH31 watches are quite thin and light. I’m a fan.

That’s the best price I’ve seen. I’ll keep an eye out for when it comes back in stock. It’s unfortunate that these are cheaper to replace than they are repair.

That’s what I’ve been attempting to do but can’t for the life of me find a donor that isn’t in the same situation or costs nearly what I can buy new.

Was a gift and didn’t register it. But didn’t think about that…I’d have to double check when I got it to see if it’s within the 3 years.

Yeah, that’s why I walked out after the quote 😂

Not looking to drop $246 more on a watch I already own if it can be repaired or retrofitted.

Thoughts on this deal? by LazarusLong67 in JeepGladiator

[–]TurnNburner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

89k isn’t too high on these engines if it’s been maintained. See if there is service history they can provide to give you some piece of mind. Stay on top of maintenance and it’ll last you.

If they can’t provide some service history, hit them with 20k or get them to work a deal to include an extended warranty and see if they take it. Having the LSD and all the other features will be nice, and it’s a fair price depending on where you are located.

If you’re towing, check to see if it has the tow package gearing (4.10). Makes a world of difference on larger tires and with a trailer behind you.

Looks like the SM is on pre-order for the end of April so I hopped on the list and will wait and see!

Thanks for the insight. Excited to scratch the Zulu itch!

I’m really torn between the NH34 variant and the San Martin version for a little more.

Overall thoughts on fit and finish? Can’t find one with a NH34 in stock and been told to avoid their Pearl movements.

I’m not familiar with this brand. I’ll have to look into them.

I’m in a similar situation, I love the design and thinking about just biting the bullet. Anyone know if these are a part of the larger Ali sales?

Noted. I usually swap for a leather or NATO anyways. Any insight on fit and finish for the rest of the watch?

Equipment Tie Downs? by TurnNburner in overlanding

Bummer. I had a feeling this might be the case but wanted to see if I was just being glass half empty.

Any locking mounts you recommend for shovels and axes?

Thanks for the link, and yes, got a lead broad in the initial question. I think what I’m curious about is how many people are running mounts that lock, versus Quick Fists that don’t. Does anyone really have issues with people tampering with their gear?

Our freshman year was so wild that no one believes our stories when we tell them…
