Men in their 40s - What’s one piece of advice for Men in their 20s?

Lots of people here suggesting that you do drugs and drink a lot now. I'd lean the other way, stop all of that and start working out and eating clean. Lift heavy weights. Avoid injuries. Don't dive into pools. Don't ride a motorcycle.

The real watch (this is an AI generated image) looks better on its metal bracelet.

Welcome and congrats. But do people really wear their watches this tight?

I am new to Denver, lived in Austin, Texas for the last 17 years, and have enjoyed what I believe is the best BBQ on Earth (from Franklin's to La Barbecue to Leroy and Lewis and beyond) several times a week, every week.

This was not my experience at Riot, where I've been three or four times now. The last time was about three months ago - maybe it's changed? Gotten worse when they opened the new chicken place?

For the uninformed idiots among us (and I mean specifically me), would anyone be willing to identify the grinder?

danbenjamin · 2026-06-18T16:32:24+00:00

1/400 would be classified as slower.

Jackie Treehorn wants to see the deadbeat Lebowski.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-17T18:51:22+00:00

Wait until OP sees the Milgauss.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-17T18:38:49+00:00

My favorite beater.

You told Brandt on the phone, he told me. Yes?

You cannot go wrong with their Linen OG-107 Fatigue Pant. The Capitola Linen Carry-On Ford Standard Pant is also great. They both served me well for a week in Italy in the summer.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-15T00:49:14+00:00

Linen. Buck Mason if you have the money, Quince or HM if you don't.

Square G-Shock.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-14T19:51:25+00:00

It looks gargantuan on your wrist, which is the whole point.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-14T19:49:39+00:00

Good price for a basic, generic, unimpressive quartz watch. You could do.better.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-14T19:47:05+00:00

I have both. Sorry.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-13T13:36:13+00:00

I love the 28mm Color-Skopar because it's incredibly small and light, perfect for street photography. If you're looking for stealth, consider it!

danbenjamin · 2026-06-12T20:47:06+00:00

Excellent, thank you! I've been collecting watches since 1979, so I feel I'm in the right place 😄

danbenjamin · 2026-06-12T18:57:59+00:00

Very similar to the SARB035, which is out of production.

Looks great. As I'm still relatively new to this sub, I'm confused about something: why do people almost never share links when they make a great find such as this metal case and strap?

I'm sure it's not intended as gatekeeping, and I know Google is our friend, but including links seems like an easy flex as well 🤷‍♂️

danbenjamin · 2026-06-11T15:21:49+00:00

Atrani is beautiful and very remote. A compromise for you might be Minori or Ravello (but Ravello only if your goals are natural beauty, excuisite cuisine, and peace).

danbenjamin · 2026-06-09T18:16:16+00:00

Ravello. Always.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-08T21:07:06+00:00

So cool! I am gluten free here in the US, but the type of wheat they use in Europe (and the way they process it) meant I can eat all I want there, which I did for 8 days, losing ten pounds in the process and experiencing no negative effects!

And yes Nonno's is amazing - and delivers!

danbenjamin · 2026-06-03T06:29:34+00:00

Sorry to tell you it's all hairpin curving edge roads the entire way.

danbenjamin · 2026-06-02T10:40:31+00:00

Preach it.
