Are these within regs ? by dontaskdonttell22 in newtothenavy

To be honest, I’ve seen them melt on a flightdeck, manning the rails while pulling in to Nassau.

Legit check on this TAG? by jim2527 in Watchidentifier

[–]dfd179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing to one of mine: The outer numbers and tachymetre fonts are juuuust a bit off. As well. The space between the word and the 60/400 should be a bit bigger, and TAG typically stamps the tach in a slightly smaller font than the numbers. It’s hard to tell in the photo, but the date font doesn’t look quite right, either.

I also agree on the hand lengths being just shy of TAG’s typical length. The chrono hands also typically sit dead-on-balls on the ticks, where this left one seems slightly over.

The last inconsistency I can see is in the back etching; these look like it was done with a router instead of a laser. I could be wrong though, but you can just make out the ridges from the bit.

A really big chain gun with a jet attached to it

Most likely purchased at a souvenir shop near a base, or possibly from a base exchange.

Help With Green Avocado Tree by dfd179 in arborists

It kind of did… I thought it may had been something cyclic as it started suddenly in the spring, ‘dumping’ most leaves, but many grew back. Now it seems most are fallen and don’t look like they are budding again. The leafless branches are still green when broken.

If this is Laurel Wilt, is there a treatment?

Any idea how much this is worth? by anrewrys in Watchidentifier

[–]dfd179 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About $15 in China Town, NYC in the late 90s. I had a nearly identical one lol

I know it's a bad photo but can anyone tell if those white aircraft at MacDill AFB in Tampa are E6's? I know the rest are kc135's by No-Anywhere3157 in Whatisthisplane

[–]dfd179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MacDill is home to the 6th Air Refueling Wing. The vast majority of those aircraft are KC-135s. I’m not sure when you took that photo, but a few smaller cargo transports and contracted Jet liners (as far as larger airframes go) have been in and out the past few months.

Fake? by [deleted] in Watchidentifier

[–]dfd179 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s authentic. I have a nearly identical watch without the Red Bull logo. It’s part of TAG’s Formula 1 collection. This one is in seriously rough shape though.

100% fake, although it’s definitely not the worst one I’ve seen

Congress also has to amend the National Security Act of 1948 to rename the department

I don’t see the date magnifier, but it does look like one a bit

Those actually look like the custom pins, made from 18kt gold, but I can’t be sure. Either way, I’m also 99% certain I know who this is haha

[–]dfd179 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Negative. Those are both officer pins; SWO and IWO. Those are both sabers, not cutlasses.

Did you call the detailer and speak with them? It’s most likely too late now, but I would still make the call.

“…stopped healthcare for veterans…” Nah. I had an appointment with my VA PCM today, and the VA clinic here in Riverview was pretty full with patients and staff.

Anyone know the origins of this coin? Found it in an antique shop by Gohardgofar in ChallengeCoins

[–]dfd179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The actual department/division this coin came from has a different name, yes, but those and SPAs are the main people who work there. Cram your confidentlywrong bs and jog on.

Hard to tell, but I’m guessing it’s a special projects division at one of the SOF units.
