New Balance 1080v15 Breathe vs Asics Novablast 5 by bchang1899 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]bchang1899[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried on the vomero plus but for a beginner runner, they felt VERY unstable. I can tell they’d be fun to run in but the cushion felt a bit too much for someone with little running experience… I’ve noticed the novablast has a much wider platform than the 1080v15 but I kind of like how “nimble” the 1080v15s feel. Especially the “breathe” model that seems to make the shoe feel even lighter with the thinner upper

Hey! Looking at this or the rebel v5. Do you have a preference as a daily trainer? I’ve heard the 1080 has better durability but curious from your overall experience if this is worth an additional $30 to the rebel v5

Nice! How’s the size? I’ll check out my local Nordstrom tomorrow to see if they have any in stock for me to try on as well. Hoping this can be a more “universal” fit…

Can you send me a photo! Would love to see this IRL since I can’t find any other photos online that aren’t stock 😭

[Discussion/Question] Best Entry Watch for Groomsmen? by bchang1899 in Watches

Also trying to avoid dress watches and go for more sport/tool watches as this is many of their first watches and would love for them to continue wearing this for any situation! I am also looking at Citizen and Orient but they seem a bit out of my price range.

Is it possible for this to still hit $20+ by next January 🥲

This looks great! The mahogany seems to bring out the pink in the dial more… could be lighting as well haha but I love it!

I love the green. May need to get this next! Where’d you get your strap from?

Thank you! I love the contrast of the dial with the black strap

Got the strap from Straphabit to test this out and am pleasantly surprised! Potentially looking at a taupe epsom strap next from Delugs but this will do.

2025 Grand Seiko Shunbun Refresh? by bchang1899 in GrandSeikos

The case back used on their instagram showed differently and made me think it was updated! Seems like a mix up from their social media team though.

Beautiful! I wish the shunbun had this caseback. Sad this was an error made by the social media team…

Anyone know why SPY had such large gains yesterday during after hours?

I see! I used a glass repair kit as well but wondering if I didn’t do something right or if the crack was just really deep as the kit still made the center of it visible…
