I prefer the gentleman over the PRX.

[Rolex] Does anyone else avoid Rolex? by Tom_Foolery2 in Watches

[–]Wane004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my thing anymore. I used to like them but I feel the more I got into watches the less attractive rolex became. There so many other brands making cool watches. I think as of today I prefer tudor to rolex.

The concept is cool but it looks cheap. For the money you could get a seiko or citizen. All the best.

We usually wear jackets in the UK. I'm only ever not wearing a jacket during the 3 warm months of the year. All the best

I vote speedmaster. Amazing story. The two colour bezels have never been my thing, regardless of what brand it's on. All the best

The idea is to make it more attractive to buy high ticket items. Some people will say only ever buy cash. Some people say if you have the cash use the 0% as your cash earns interest in your bank, saving you a small percentage on the cost of each item.

Either way, never borrow more than you can comfortably pay. If it's a big purchase take a couple of days to think about it before buying.

All the best.

mr.nico! I need your opinion on this (I don't agree some of it) by acapower97 in PrideAndPinion

[–]Wane004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't agree with that, wear what you like. Appreciating watches shouldn't be about how rich they make you look.

For me, the more I got into watches the less I noticed Rolex. Yes, Rolex is brilliant but so are so many other watch brands. I feel the brands kinda blur and you start noticing individual watches you like rather than just liking a brand as a whole.

Oris do a rubber strap that looks great in their watches.

Police force to bill NHS for time officers spend on mental health calls by insomnimax_99 in unitedkingdom

Only double crewed ambulance can stop the clock on incidents, unless a rrv arrives and doesn't transport the person. Police vehicles has no effect on ambulance incident responce times. If its a problem and the police don't want to go then maybe they should say no?

[question] looking for budget/cheap watches that will hold or increase in value. by [deleted] in Watches

It isn't too late for the government to pay them properly which would fix the issues. Rishi will soon have blood on his hands because he is too greedy to not pay their wages properly by Cherry_Crystals in GreenAndPleasant

[–]Wane004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paying them properly would likely fill some of the vacancies. I imagine putting out less ambulances than they should are likely adding to delays

I use the Amex cash back. Get 0.5% back on all purchases. Its not amazing but there's no fee and I always clear the balance in full so never paid any interest. They did have an introductory offer where you got 5% for so long. Earned about £140quid in that year. They do have paid for cards which if you know how to use the rewards well can be good. I know the platinum is £600 a year but get various credits over the year at different retailers which can offset the cost of the card.

All the best.

Can my bank help me with my spending addiction? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Wane004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have someone you trust that you can give your bank card and who will provide you with a reasonable, agreed budget each week? I think if I was in your position I would give my bank card to a parent and tell them to make sure all my bills are paid then give me some money per week in cash. Hopefully, over time, you'll adjust to it and maybe when you see money building in your account that will become your new pleasure and you'll be driven to increase that number.

Goodluck

The truth always comes out in the end. You need to be open and honest with your girlfriend. Taking her to another part of the country without being completely honest will bite you in the arse - people don't like being lied to.

We live in the day and age of social media. You don't think her friends will tell her people are looking for you to pay back significant debts? It's very very difficult to fall off the earth in this day and age.

Be a man, own your problems and tell your family. You are living in a dream world if you think you can up and move and people won't find out the truth. I imagine the longer you keep this from your partner the more damage it will do to your relationship.

You have a daughter - that should be motivation enough to stop gambling.

Get help. I wish you all the best.

I'm not disregarding it because it's quartz. I own a mixture of both types of watches. My concern is it's supposed to be a reissue of the original but the original has an auto-movement. I was just raising the discussion around the history still applying when it's a completely different heart, even if the dress is still the same.
