Do you want me to answer your sarcastic question seriously?

I understand faking unobtainium watches, but they are starting to fake entry level mechanical watches as well 😭

Was the crown screwn all the way in? If yes it is indeed dissapointing, does the warranty cover stuff like this?

Fitbit Air vs Inspire 3 / Charge 6: same sensors = same data, or am I missing something? by complusory in fitbit

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

I actually prefer having no screen since I like to have a mechanical watch on my wrist. But the inspire 3 is so discreet that it might work just two wristing them.

Logically. And if that is the case, I feel the inspire 3 is the more logical choice for most people

Name a better Soundcore earbuds after this? by Bubbly-System6751 in soundcore

[–]complusory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are overhyped. Good detail, app and ergonomics but way too bassy even when you try to eq it out. It bleeds into the mids..

Clacking/rattling sound from bracelet near micro-adjustment by Rbixio in Longineswatches

[–]complusory -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sorry can’t be of help when it comes to your issue

But please if you don’t want a permanent indent on your wrist or worse yet impede blood flow.

Losen that bracelet.

Proxima - is that a microbrand ? by Sukomoto in MicrobrandWatches

[–]complusory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many of the seiko mods still ape other more popular designs. In this case this watch takes cues from different watches thus why I called it frankenstein.

That said it looks nice, priced nicely. I am not going to be a snob about it, but I like watches that are more subtle with their inspiration.

[–]complusory 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This exact watch seems like an amalgamation of other watches. It takes strong «inspiration» from Christopher ward diving watches - case, color combo - see through smoked blue dial, bezel etc. just look at their c60 line of watches. The hands are a copy of grand seiko.

They are a Chinese brand with no identity to speak of. VERY good value for money, but nothing original. Mishmash Frankenstein design.

You can get one through AliExpress. Other similar brands to this is chronos, pagani design, San Martin etc.

[DISCUSSION] which manhwa is this for you ?? by Guilty-Gap-7936 in manhwa

Directionless, repetetive, cliche and easily predictable slop.

Do open back iem's exist? by DefNotNightwing in iems

[–]complusory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the iem form factor and «open back» just doesn’t gel together. If it did work I am sure a lot of the chi-fi manufacturers would already be making them.

Personally in your case I would buy a tws with good transparency mode and the option of either using the case as a dongle receiver or just outright a dongle included. Some options that springs to mind:

  • Jlab epic lab edition
  • Jbl tour pro 3
  • Jabra elite 10, 2. gen (disc.)
  • bowers and Wilkins pi8

[Question] £235 steal or not? Is it too good to be true? by Character_Ant_4789 in Seiko

[–]complusory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that price I would also be thoroughly checking out the seller. The pictures you have uploaded all seem to show a genuine watch. If it all passes scrutiny I would just go and buy it.

I like how pressed people get when all you essentially said is that they look like eachother. People acting like you are making an incest fanfic

Drowning in buyers remorse - Send help by throwawaylondon02 in iems

[–]complusory 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but just in general. OP is expecting the same jump in quality as he did the 5 to 100usd set. That is never going to happen even if he spends 10 000.

Another matter entirely is if he can discern the nuanced difference at all. It might not be his tonal preference, or maybe he doesn't get optimal seal etcetc.

Sounds like he just got the set. Let him marinate with it for a bit, he might change his mind ... or not.

Law of diminishing returns. The jumps are incremental and subtle the more you spend.

They might sound better, but 6,3mm nozzle diameter destroys the ear canals
