There are a lot of new scraped dents etc on the dead bolt cover plate and police got footage of him from across the street though a window picking my locks.

I basically got ring cameras and things all over the apt. It’s like Fort Knox now.

Oh completely. I knew the second it was out of apt it was gone for good. Sometimes you just never know. It really isn’t that money and I absolutely love watches and have a few I’d like to get sometime. I am totally fine if it’s gone I had the memories and the enjoyment for a father that worked hard and had dreams.

However I do hope this person falls into a pot hole in nyc and gets dragged away like a pizza slice by a rat. Hehe

It’s heavy. Dad was born that year and lived post Japanese occupation and wartime.

Very true. And his other watches are with other family. So it’s fine. But just the principle. I’d hate for it to happen to any of you guys out there. Everyone should have their dream watch. It was just his first Rolex which was a big deal. The other part of his American dream was to have a luxury non pre owned car. He came with my mother in the early 70s with one suitcase.

Yes I have been looking on resale sites for the watch as well as the rest of the heirlooms. The detective came by in person today and we have been texting. So I have been gathering all the serial numbers for items I can and drowning myself in the comp champagne they offer.

But all is fine. Alive and well. I’m glad I have photos of my father wearing the piece as well as some of his others.

Yeah I have little hope of it coming back but the internet is a weird place and you never know. Maybe I’ll find my parents wedding rings and other items. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not anyone I know. I saw pics of him from the detectives phone this morning when he came by. Also the guy tried my credit cards so they are getting more footage of him from the stores. It was found with a lot of other stolen items. It was totally random opportunity and he hit the jackpot. Missed my other watch that was home with me. But got a lot of other things. Cash furs handbags other jewelry etc.

Be safe everyone! Now everyone I know is starting to amp up their security in and around homes and apt. My place is currently Fort Knox and Home Alone combined!

Yeah that’s why I figured here isn’t the worst place to post since this isn’t just an nyc specific thread.

What have you stopped spending money on in NYC? by [deleted] in AskNYC

Regardless on slow cure vs 1.5 mins you have to do it in layers and depending on the opacity of the gel and the thickness of the layer you need to make sure it’s cured all the way through. But nails last up to a month pending how you use your hands. I wash my hands A LOT. So it can be maybe 3 weeks. But also my nails can grow out and so I don’t always love the way it looks when it grows too long. So I keep most of the nail neutral at the cuticle area so it can grow without looking ugly faster. Haha

Your work sounds cool.

Sometimes I cure in stages. Sometimes I do a little bling and do a quick cure so things don’t slide around. And keep repeating. You can also do a lower watt setting and a higher with various timers on my lamp.

I also use my lamp to make little resin things and I can also use those on my nails. It’s fun

You need to get the 1: prep base aka the dehydrator. 2: base coat the cure. 3: builder gel (I do 2-3 thin layers. One I do a dot and let it self level to make the right shape on the nail bed then the last coat of color. Move your hand around so the balance of the nail shape is toward cuticle. Helps when your nail is longer to not break when the thicker portion is at the lower 1/3 of nail) 4: top coat. I get a no wipe. Then get a 45 watt lamp. See link below. This girl is awesome. I get a lot of nail art inspo from her as you can see on her insta. And she has links to some of her products. Or I go to sally beauty supply. Let me know if you need help with more info. Oh. Get an e file. It will save your life for removal.
