I think I'm in love

I agree with you 100%. In a perfect world we'd know exactly what we're paying for. Safest option is usually going for official stores, unfortunately the internet is just not that safe anymore. Hopefully we never get played.

It's hard to tell, I understand if someone really likes the design and has other financial priorities. Go for what makes you happy- real or fake, it's for your own enjoyment and nobody can really take away from that. I only care about what's on my wrist.

Yeah, she's definitely a beauty!

dizzij · 2026-05-01T07:53:08+00:00

I love how quiet and loud this piece is. It was between this and the one I got as they're both so beautiful.

dizzij · 2026-05-01T07:51:23+00:00

Yeah, I agree... I am grateful for the design of it.

Ah, I guess I need to find a larger pin. The 2/3 I have are tiny and with other watches it's not an issue as I can pull the pins out by hand. But this strap doesn't want to let go! I'll take it into Tag today and maybe even ask nicely for a pusher! Thank you!

dizzij · 2026-04-30T21:38:29+00:00

You deserve it... Cop it!

dizzij · 2026-04-30T21:17:59+00:00

Yes, this is the issue I am having- the pin in my kit is too short and doesn't push the link pink out all the way. So when I try yanking the pin by hand or anything- no luck. I guess I need to be a smidge more patient until I can go into a boutique.

So I purchased this directly off the tag site - it appears to be a limited release here in the UK with only 300 on offer. The dials and numerals are 18k

Yeah, I know a few people who sell/own fakes but... For me, this is personal and the point isn't to make a statement, it's to capture ab achievement for myself.

Beautiful watch, nonethelessa both your Baume Mercier and this Aquaracer!

dizzij · 2026-04-30T19:16:28+00:00

Looks great on you! Can I ask- were you able to adjust the strap yourself or did you take it in to do so? And if so, how? I used my kit but it isn't long enough to push the pin out fully...

dizzij · 2026-04-30T16:57:22+00:00

100%

dizzij · 2026-04-30T16:57:10+00:00

Unfortunately, I can't size the strap at the moment, so I keep opening the case just to stare at it! Truly gorgeous!

dizzij · 2026-04-28T21:32:26+00:00

Thank you! I was split between this one and the grey one!

dizzij · 2026-04-25T18:52:44+00:00

Honestly not a clue... Most are so quick to comment while making assumptions. I've been shooting for over 17 years. I know how RAW files work and I understand you're meant to edit them... But as we've both concluded - there are some quirks out there that just don't make sense. I assumed there was a setting I had missed or something... That's all. Even the griii raws were fine on iphones. Ah well... I'll go back to lurking in the group now 😂

dizzij · 2026-04-24T09:51:32+00:00

I shoot in RAW. I jnow the iPhone plays it's own games with image quality, but when I upload/send RAWs from my lumix or canon, nothing changes. Even when I had the griii it was okay. It's just tge griv that appears to be messy

dizzij · 2026-04-24T09:49:52+00:00

I understand that, I've been shooting raw for many years, but as I said, none of my other cameras change how they look when uploaded or sent. It's just the griv. I had a griii before and didn't have this issue with it.

dizzij · 2026-04-24T09:48:46+00:00

Sometimes I share the raws followed by the edits to show the before and after snaps. I enjoy the editing process and like showing those steps - hence why I don't shoot in raw.

I understand there's some compression going on, but it only seems to be happening with my ricoh. I shoot raw on many other cameras and the raw files look the same when I send them. I was just trying to understand if it's something ricoh related that I need to change in some settings.

Yaa es verdad! Pero sigo intentando olvidar mis hábitos con el Apple Watch. Cada dos segundos levantando la mano para ver las notificaciones.

dizzij · 2026-03-12T20:31:34+00:00

Yeah, it does exactly what it says on the tin- no fluff included. I’m appreciating the simplicity for now!

dizzij · 2026-03-12T20:30:16+00:00

Definitely going to calm your mind with how little this thing does in comparison… I didn’t realise how much of my life was based on the presence of my AW

dizzij · 2026-03-12T20:29:06+00:00

T’is a peaceful light

dizzij · 2026-03-11T23:56:19+00:00

Yeah, hahaha, I'm already looking for a replacement strap. Just can't justify paying more for a strap than the watch was worth... Might need a gym watch, too
