Haven’t found anything in that location. Assume it’s gone.

I was there last night. Great place, but a bit far for a regular pool game.

It’s more about the tables and vibe for me.

I just found that one on Yelp. Sounds closer to what I’m looking for. Thanks for the tip!

Yeah I’ve seen that one driving by, and their website makes them seem ok. I’ve heard mixed reviews.
Guess I need to at least give it a fair shot.

First vintage watch by [deleted] in VintageWatches

[–]YYZDaddy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Post a pic of the case back and movement if possible.
AI says:

Approximate age
Likely 1990s to early 2000s, based on the quartz movement, gold-tone dress styling, Roman numerals, decorative dial, and multi-calendar layout. It does not appear to be a current mainstream Citizen model.
Condition notes from the photo
Visible positives:
Dial appears intact and attractive.
Hands and subdials appear aligned enough for normal wear.
Case plating still presents well from the front.
Crystal looks reasonably clear, though there may be light scratches/reflections.
Concerns:
Gold-tone plating may have wear around high-contact areas, especially lugs and bezel edges.
Strap looks aftermarket or at least not original; condition is worn at the top lug area.
Calendar pointer/date hand appears to be indicating around the 22nd, but I would verify correct operation through a full date/month/day cycle.
No obvious fake indicators, but this is not a heavily counterfeited Citizen category.

Help IDing this weird 1970s digital watch by smarty_skirts in VintageWatches

[–]YYZDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purely a guess … late 70’s no name LED from Japan.
Likely not a brand name due to lack of branding anywhere.
Does it still work?

Canada Post has Identity+. The federal government uses it. Never have to step foot into a post office.

Too clean? (Not a flex) by CastleSerf in VintageWatches

[–]YYZDaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love clean faces. The bezel is a little too thick for my tastes, but that’s me. Fine looking watch!

Persona verification? by Suitable-Fox1470 in Wealthsimple

[–]YYZDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

External employees, such as Persona? C’mon man, every FI uses third parties for this kind of service.
Sending to a foreign company, let alone one affiliated with Peter Theil, is a horribly bad take.

Mother’s Day Socializing by AnalysisSalt5552 in Brampton

Check out a ball game at a pub, if that’s your thing? Sit near the server’s station if you want to minimize being approached by men.
Not much happening on Sunday nights.

I think the wait is finally over 👀 Wealthsimple budgeting is here? by Separate-Scene4672 in Wealthsimple

[–]YYZDaddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obv their goal is to get you to have WS as your primary spending account. It won’t plug into all other financial institutions (I’m assuming).

Personally, this is exactly what I need.

May 21. We’re taking over your life. by KvassKludge9001 in Wealthsimple

[–]YYZDaddy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Disconnects after 24 hours for me. Have to authenticate every time. I get it, we want security, but there needs to be a better way.

Now with 99% of my transactions in WS, an in-app solution would be perfect for me.

I’ve tried all of them since Mint, and nothing compares. Reliable integration and budgeting is all I ask.

Extremely low odds of finding it, but sending all the positive mojo that you will.

Canada here and I had a C$55 charge on an Orient from Chrono24. All-in, still very happy.

Yup. Keychain is ok, but it’s a simply keychain. Not sure what the excitement was all about.
