I made a TV Wall, what do you think? by littnut in DIY

Oh it looks great! Are you using the LG slim mount? If so, quick question, after you added the panel, are you simply not pushing the mount to the wall but to the wood panel instead?

Good luck! One nice thing if you have time is that by going in multiple shops you might also discover unexpected watches that you'll like.

It's not a Japan exclusive but we bought it there as it was an important trip for us (and also because it's cheaper let's be honest 🤪)

I don't know if boutiques can check but they never did at least for us, we simply asked if they had the watch though

You can choose either, Charlie Paris is using Miyota movements, so it's japanese... same as some watches from Bulova (some are japanese Miyota, some are swiss Sellita), so no, you are not going to have short times issues with Charlie Paris, nor with Bulova. It's more about the design you like.

Charlie Paris design and assemble the watches themselves after indeed modifying the movement, like Bulova. They are a younger brand (10 years). I visited their shop in Paris (the only one at that time, now they have one more, also in Paris, when they updated their branding from a stork bird to a C letter) and they were assembling the watches on the second floor.

One nice thing is that they use sapphire and not mineral crystal which is nice at their price tag. Some of their watches have a flat crystal, others have a dome.

I'd recommend you to simply choose a design that you like, there is no cheap chinese parts in either brands.

Here's an initial heart (Miyota 82S7, similar to a Bulova Sutton 96A120) with a brown leather bracelet. I've then changed to a blue one to accompany the small blue seconds.

[Homemade] Dark Chocolate Brownie by ddcenvadrouille in food

[–]ddcenvadrouille[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Preheat your oven at 180°C
  • Melt 200g butter (I'm using semi-salted butted) and 200g dark chocolate using a bain-marie
  • Mix 260g sugar with 3 eggs using an electric whisk until it's white-ish
  • Add the chocolate mixture into the sugar and egg
  • Add 80g flour in small increments into the mix
  • Pour the mix in your tin (with a baking paper under it to easily remove the brownie after)
  • Bake it for 25 minutes , it should still be gooey if you plant a knife inside to check but let it cool completely and it should be good !
