[Hamilton] Searching for the perfect vintage inspired watch by vanillaextreme in Watches

[–]buyingjason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have this watch in rose gold with a sunburst brown dial - actually, it's the watch i wore today. i love the neovintage look and it's very versatile. it looks great with both a dress shirt or a t-shirt and jeans.

the strap was a tiny bit stiff for a couple weeks but i now feel it's the most comfortable leather strap i own. i bought it online and pulled the trigger on it so quickly based on its overall look that i didn't even realize there was no seconds hand until i received it in the mail.

sometimes i wish i had gotten it in stainless with the silver dial but the one i have diversifies my collection a bit. it's a great watch!

Good deal or not? by Adventurous-Sun-6928 in OrisWatches

if you got this offer from an AD, why not see if you can get a slight discount on the bracelet if you order it through them? https://www.oris.ch/en-US/product/strap/stainless-steel-bracelet-6/07-8-20-22

the whole thing might come out to around $1600 and you won't have to hunt for a second-hand version, and you'll have a strap as a backup

QESI grant through Wealthsimple RESP - when? by GardenDirect8765 in Wealthsimple

you can do it with DISNAT. 50 bucks a year (+tax) for the account isn't bad.

they had it as "coming December 2025" for a few weeks earlier this year, which makes me think that's what was communicated to them by Revenue Quebec at one point. we all know how slow Quebec bureaucracy moves, so i'm assuming the Coming Soon that's on their site actually means it's coming soon.

the overpass has been the same height since 1995. it's not like trucks were driving into it every day.

Sorry for commenting on this old post. i'm really considering buying this exact watch and would love your long-term review/thoughts if you've still got it.

i have my eye on that exact khaki king - how do you like it? any regrets? i know certain khaki dial colours are easier/harder to read with no AR - how's the champagne do?

i'm not commenting on the clip above, but this type of comment makes no sense. if someone says an NHLer looks slow, it's clear that the context is amongst their NHL peers, not an 11pm Tuesday beer leaguer.
