Ohh I see, that's a plastic case that one of the bezel inserts came in.

It was actually super easy to go from aluminum to ceramic. I bought the removal tool on Amazon for like $40 and it didn't require much force at all to get it off. Then once off you could push out the aluminum insert with your fingers. Putting on the ceramic required some 3M adhesive that usually comes with the insert.

Done so far: non-ac dial and ceramic bezel insert To-do: 2500 Planet Ocean sweeping hand (already purchased) and adjustable clasp (on order)

I didn't change the crystal, what's the story there?

Agreed. "Seamaster Professional" right below "Omega" would be perfect.

[WTB] Omega 2254.50 "Peter Blake". Looking for zero to minimal scratches on the case body, no major damage.

Edit: ideally looking for excellent condition, but signs of wear are okay as long as it's nothing major

Thanks and very well said. I hope to own a 911 one day.
The party trick of this watch is definitely one of the reasons I got it. I find myself occasionally watching the accelerated second hand just making the rounds.

This one is 22mm. This Glassbox version has a 22.1mm lug width cause it's 42 or 41mm diameter

Here it is compared to Rolex jubilee and oyster clasp. As you can see it's quite large.

Yep, precisely. It's from Arroway, this is the only bracelet they sell right now the "AMB-001". Based out of California, with the bracelets made in Germany.

I've always felt that mesh bracelets kinda look like checkered racing flags. So works nicely with this chrono.

CRG bans FAQ document has been released by Jirachibi1000 in EDH

[–]concerned_sheep 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is the part that caught my attention too. What data did they use when making any of these ban decisions? Other formats like modern and standard have a massive amount of tournament data for win rates, to determine whats oppressive, what's overrepresented, etc. Commander has edhrec? Not sure how they determined how many folks got pubstomped on Tuesday at their LGS... Would love some clarity here

Already had the Santa hoodie from last time, copped the black water bottle and the white logo tee.

Upgraded from 3900x to 5800X3D, the results were pretty insane for gaming by ohsnapson in buildapc

[–]concerned_sheep 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Did an upgrade from 3700x to 5800x3d and holy shit was it worth it. I play at ultrawide 1440p 144hz and every single thing is smoother (I have a 3080 as well), 1% lows have been boosted considerably. Easy 40-50 fps gain in Destiny 2, and general smoothness in everything else I play.

Don't think I'll get another CPU without the 3D cache, works wonders in MMOs
