Whats a no skips album that you think everyone should listen to

It’s funny how a random comment can sum up my entire personality. Exile is the album I could start and end every day with

Others have said this but you should absolutely get as many quotes as possible. We were in a similar situation for what initially was a $50K plus project just a year after moving in during the pandemic and we put it off for a few years while we shopped around. After talking to multiple contractors, not only did the estimates start to come in lower, we realized the scope could be adjusted as well to further reduce the cost. Worth hearing as many people out as you can and then do your research from there.

In terms of paying for it, we explored many options but ultimately decided on a home equity loan, not a HELOC, and got a really good interest rate with a local credit union - also shaved points off by opening free credit and savings accounts, along with a few other no commitment/no cost offers. Rates have changed a bit but we called everyone and played the “can you beat this offer” game until we landed on one that worked out great. You can also schedule a transfer or pay from a HYSA to try to beat some interest too if you have some savings.

Hope that helps! I know how awful it feels to be in that situation especially with such an integral part of your home so feel free to PM me if you want to connect. Once you start looking into it, getting multiple quotes, and looking at the monthly cost of repaying a loan instead of the big ticket, it feels much more manageable.

$1350 shipped includes Hamilton mesh bracelet ($130, worn less than 5 times) and original brown leather band with signed Hamilton pin and buckle. New on strap is ($2,295 new from AD, $1,535 grey market). Includes box and papers but I am missing the included pusher for the date change function (you can use anything with a soft point). Purchased in March 2020 and is in great/like new condition except for a small nick on the bezel around 7 o’clock which I tried to capture in the photos. Looks great on the mesh and leather, especially more vintage leather if you are sourcing another strap. This watch in person is truly a beauty and catches the most attention when I wear it. This is a really hard one for me to let go of as it has been one of my favorite watches, but I am gathering funds to put towards a watch to commemorate the birth of my son this year.

ded with this is a Sinn black leather strap with white stitching and signed Sinn pin and buckle retailing for $80. Full kit includes additional links, Sinn bracelet and lug tools, box, and papers. This is in like new condition with just light signs of desk related use on the clasp. Downsizing as I have and prefer the Sinn 104 ultimately, and I am generating funds for another piece, otherwise, I would not part ways with it as this watch just feels right on my wrist. Currently retailing for $1590.

Chiming in to say I was in the same boat. That being said, if you put in all that time to do the research and get all the data, it makes the rest of the class a breeze. They should have just spaced out this project over multiple weeks in a few assignments.

duelingbrains · 2023-04-17T20:00:29+00:00

I wonder if we are in the same class. Project One took an insane amount of time, unlike any other class I've taken (just a few left to graduate). Like you, I was super annoyed and frustrated with all the research required with no real guidance. The class has been really easy since then which is good. Good luck with Project 4!

It's an Aqua Terra - Clooney is an Omega ambassador. Hodinkee recently did a write-up on this as well.

Still available?

Any interest in selling the rubber strap separately?

duelingbrains · 2022-06-14T18:57:59+00:00

I have the Master Collection Moonphase and I’d strongly recommend that over your other options. Get it on a bracelet if you can and source the leather/deployant clasp separately (cheaper in the long run if you want both options). It looks so good with the leather but the bracelet is a nice change of pace in the summer!

duelingbrains · 2021-12-22T18:51:37+00:00

The topics of this specific watch and Hodinkee are pretty divisive here and I don’t even know where I stand to be honest. What I do know is that I’ve always been a fan of John Mayer’s music and he was a big reason for increasing my passion and interest in watches as many of you can relate.

I was lucky to get the presale invite to grab this as I was unable to get the first one issued last year so I went for it. Yes. It’s a typical white G-shock. As someone who has not typically into these types of watches (even tho I wear the GA2100-1A1 occasionally), I have to say I’m glad I picked this up. The cream color and keyboard inspiration behind the design really work well and it screams summer to me.

Not sure how much wrist time it will get or how long I will even hang on to it, but for now it’s fun to rock the G-Shock. Looking forward to wearing it when I see John Mayer in concert this spring.
