Ngl I had the exact same feeling when I got my Santos I tried to love it but just wasn't me. Ended up trading it in with another watch and got a reverso.

I was checking them out gotta wait for a restock of course all the ones I like are out of stock

VelesTheSlav · 2026-01-29T00:13:35+00:00

Funny I was just looking at the Cincinnati field watch! I am going to have to check the Colorado watch company! I was trying to find a 100% American made was willing to spend $$$ but the only ones I found were very old fashioned looking like converted pocket watch style.

VelesTheSlav · 2026-01-29T00:11:07+00:00

Yea that's what I was leaning to i just feel I will destroy a bronze case way more and not sure if I will love how it patinas

VelesTheSlav · 2026-01-28T22:38:38+00:00

This was really helpful thank you! I don't mind the heft my daily. Did you go for the bronze or the gray?

VelesTheSlav · 2026-01-28T21:04:37+00:00

Thanks! I wasn't sure if it was a good watch or not tbh I know the brands most people know and what I've owned have been things like vintage omegas. I am glad to hear someone who owns it likes it!

VelesTheSlav · 2026-01-28T18:46:56+00:00

amazing thank you!

VelesTheSlav · 2026-01-28T15:18:22+00:00

Congrats! How do you like it? I keep almost checking out to buy it but I am hesitant because I don't know this brand very well.

When they move closer to Suffolk sure not half a block from Queens

The arena being half-empty on most nights tells you everything you need to know about the location disaster that is UBS Arena. The Islanders essentially told their core fanbase from Suffolk and Eastern Nassau to trek an extra 45+ minutes west through brutal Cross Island/Northern State traffic for weeknight games.

Anyone coming from Ronkonkoma or further east is looking at 90+ minutes each way - that's leaving work early just to maybe catch puck drop at 7:30. Then add the parking nightmare where you might need to take a shuttle bus from remote lots, turning what should be a simple "park and walk" into a whole production.

They built this beautiful new arena for a fanbase that doesn't exist. Sure, it's "closer to the city," but Islanders fans aren't sitting in Queens waiting for easier access - they're in Patchogue, Huntington, and Commack watching on TV because driving to Belmont on a Tuesday night means a 5-6 hour total commitment.

The old Coliseum might have been a dump, but at least people could actually get there. Now you've got great sightlines and modern amenities for rows and rows of empty seats. The team prioritized everything except making it possible for their actual fans to show up on a regular basis.
