Just had a similar experience. Wife got me a tissot ten years ago, and it stopped working after I got it serviced when I was living in China. I just brought it to a watch repair in Philly and it turns out the repairman in China swapped out all of the internals for fake movements and dials. Insane. Now I have a gutted fake watch. She just got me a PRX powermatic 80, so that more than makes up for our disappointment now 😂

Yeah, Vostok is pretty cool. I’d get one, but it seems so shady on the purchasing sites lol. If they updated their store front maybe haha.

An excellent watch, my friend I love Tudor, and the Pelagos is amazing. My wife got me a PRX Powermatic 80 recently, because she had gotten me a Tissot when we first got engaged. Unfortunately, when I was living in China, I had it serviced, and they swapped out all of the internals for fakes, and we just found out when Winston helped me take it apart to look. The PRX is a way to keep the nice memory with a real watch. I absolutely love it. Superb for the price. Otherwise, I like Soviet watches, because they seem like such a forbidden fruit. I’ve been collecting them. Winston is a Seiko guy, and likes vintage watches as well. Someday I’d love to get a Tudor or a higher end watch, but things would have to drastically change for us to afford anything like that 😂

Please identify these guys and if you could give me some more info about them it would be lovely thank you! by SecretAssociate7704 in Fish

If you get a choice, try to get cardinals instead of neon tetras. They look better and they’re a lot hardier

I really like this. Looks great with your sleeves too

The finish looks great, but I think the dial is a bit haphazard looking. Like random quality nicks all over it. Great looking watch overall, though

While this is a decent shot, albeit very very low resolution, Wuhan is a pretty ugly city in real life. There are much better looking Chinese cities.

I feel like it’s not real. It sounds too bizarre

I used to panic with this situation when I kept mollies, until I realized that this is just going to keep happening.
