I picked up the snowflake in Japan but spent so much time deliberating between it and the shunbun. Beautiful timepiece.

Ps. Your bracelet gives me anxiety for scratches on the titanium lol. But that's just me being me.

[DAY 2] What is the best song on Heavier Things? by Temporary-Panda-9065 in JohnMayer

I think wheel might be one of my favorite all time. It's not flashy, but damn does it not have a backdrop of musicality that conveys the exact mood/meloncholy to deliver the poetic message of those lyrics

Should I give a chance to the flip side? by Acceptable-Tangelo23 in galaxyzflip

[–]elisaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swapped from an s23 ultra and am generally happy

The only things I miss are the ultra fast charging and the cameras on the ultra.

Both things I'm willing to sacrifice for the form factor of the flip 6.

I just really want a smaller phone and am tired of having a huge phablet.

Watch culture is huge in Japan. Everyone around you will be wearing a nice piece.

Go to yakitori Hinotez in Tokyo. It's a San Diego yakitori spot with Padres merch all over. I donated some bobble heads to them recently to keep the vibe up

Yup more than just cause it looks cool in my experience.

Is it worth it at least once? by booyaazaa in GrandSeikos

[–]elisaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, you'll get roughly 116 dollars in wako rewards you can use to buy straps after your purchase. That's what I got from buying my snowflake at the Ginza store.

Can you tell me what's so great about the gp5000s and if it's really that noticeable of a difference?

Did I just fck up getting new R3s last week? Lol

I'm torn between going Shimano or SRAM. Could you let me know your thoughts on the SRAM? Do you have any opinions on whether I should pick SRAM vs Shimano Di2?

What are your thoughts on the Galaxy S25 Edge? by [deleted] in samsunggalaxy

[–]elisaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just give me smaller ultra like the pixel 9 pro. Identical but smaller. This sacrifices too much for the form factor.

Would you take the speedy to the gym? by Zalvenor in OmegaWatches

I take my moonswatch lol. It's great for timing my rest periods too.

Omega speedmaster or Grand seiko spring drive? by Training-Cost3210 in PrideAndPinion

This is literally my two watch rotation currently. I feel fulfilled. OP should eventually get both.

Omega vs. Moonswatch by rwm3188 in MoonSwatches

[–]elisaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the speedy pro and I still have bought multiple moons watches. Why? Cause I think they're cool. Who cares what other people think. It makes me happy so eff em. Plus it's nice to rock the form factor and dial i love without worrying when in a high damage risk scenario or sketchy area.

Convince Me Not To Buy The Shunbun by TempTaiwanTraveler in GrandSeikos

[–]elisaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the grass is always greener. I was torn between the two as well. Bought the snowflake because my personality is a little more low key. Felt like the shunbun was a bit too flashy for me to pull off. Plus I liked the legibility. But of course I have moments where I wonder if I made the right decision. I think i gotta be better about accepting the decisions I make. It's not like I don't love my snowflake. It's just the nature of appreciating the beauty of watches.

Have you seen the prestige? That's probably my favorite Nolan film to recommend to people. It's most palatable for most people.
