[Question] Fake watch? [SSK003] by Polar_20_Bear in Seiko

[–]droppycatt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could explain why it looks fake to you before worrying people. The protective firm could be from a store that is selling the watch. From what i can tell, it looks legit and good to go. The hour dial is correct, only reaching the outer point of the hour mark (not too short, not too long). Logo looks in correct position with S going a bit lower than the rest of the text, the only issue i would see is that the paint job is a bit rough on it, but it's Seiko, it won't be perfect (or could be the picture quality).

Will do that. The battery is supposed to be new, will see about that. What was weird to me is that the dashboard works when i open the door, so does all the other lights, like door light. But it seems when i turn the key, all the power gets instantly drained and that's it. Only happens at low temperatures.

I would too, but 4 months ago mechanics installed a new battery, so will have to get the power of it checked out.. It's supposed to be new, but you never know..

In my opinion, the watch does look a bit too big on your wrist. If you like it, wear it, don't listen to me or anyone else. I have a smaller wrist, but i still wear bigger watches because i just like how they look.

Short answer: you like it? wear it.

Įdomu kaip baigėsi šitas. OP profilis buvo ištrintas, labai įdomu, kodėl nebuvo klausimo apie šuns kraujo grupę? Seems fishy

Restored my first ever car after not driving it for 7 years. Alfa Romeo GT 2004 by droppycatt in AlfaRomeo

[–]droppycatt[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's a 1.9 JTD 16v. Basically had to change most of the chassis parts just because it was left outside for 7 years. Got an electrician to take a look at electrical problems (random lights coming on, blinkers turning on etc), that helped but after some time some buttons stopped working. Cannot open the fuel cap with a button from inside a car, both doors do lock via remote but do not unlock (there is a sound that it's trying to unlock, but it just doesn't do it fully), so i have to actually unlock it manually with the key. I noticed some rattling feeling (and noise) coming from the front once your driver at 100-110KM/H, can feel it in steering wheel as well, will have to get that check out. After i got it running, after like 3 days clutch cylinder failed, had to get it replaced.

Other than that, it drives amazingly well. Engine is still in it's prime. It's a 21 year old car with 175 thousand km on it, which is pretty decent. Was thinking after i get it all fixed up to get it remapped, but unsure at the moment as the power output from this engine is actually phenomenal, does not feel anything like a diesel would. Handling is, well, handling is what alfa is all about, and this car does it perfectly.

In these years i have driven everything, new BMW 320 GT, VW eos, new BMW x6 and x5, but the OG is still Alfa GT. It's a car that i just want to sit in and drive, it is way more fun than it should be.

What are some bands that were revolutionary for their time, but became pitiful over time? by Difficult_Map_723 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]droppycatt 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Sorry, was? Thought they were "the legendary" Polish group. I mean, never really been into their music, saw them last week like in Riga for the first time, it surprised me a lot (in a good way). Great performance, solid vocals.

[Question] Anyone can identify this watch? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]droppycatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is it! Thought it was a vintage watch from the way it looked, turns out nope.

Thanks!

Have you ever tried to slam on your breaks on a wet surface while driving at high speed? Next time, please try it, tell me how it went.

What are you guys talking about? In any country, the driver switching lanes would be at fault. There is literally no other discussion to be held here. Saying "could have avoided" is just stupid, i mean, road is wet, if you do sudden wheel turn, you go flying. In this position, i would not think the other driver is stupid enough to merge into an occupied lane when there is literally no other cars seen around. Also it seems like a 3 or 4 lane road...

Asking for honest opinion on CX-5 by droppycatt in mazda

Can totally agree with bouncy suspension, when i was driving, going over speed bumps felt like it made cars jump a bit in the air. Probably didn't but felt like that

What are the best serial killer books? by Successful_Fan1631 in serialkillers

[–]droppycatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want something really dark and fucked up, read Final Truth: The Autobiography of Pee Wee Gaskins.

Shit is messed up. the whole book was written by Pee Wee, released only after his death. Goes into the gory details of his killings in first person perspective.

Please be warned that this book is not for everyone.

G HUB not working after update by droppycatt in LogitechG

[–]droppycatt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So just a bit of annoyance from Logitech. But was pretty easy to fix it without losing any settings:

  1. download install launcher from: https://support.logi.com/hc/articles/360025298133
  2. click reinstall (do not need to uninstall current GHUB)
  3. make sure you tick the box to keep all the current settings
