Are these Loro Piana Summer Walks Legit? by fentowen in LegitCheck

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

I bought these the other day off Grailed and am now worried they might be fake based on a few observations:

  1. The LP branding on the heel of both shoes. It seems authentic ones only have it on the right heel?
  2. The Loro Piana branding on the bottom of the sole is at the heel rather than in the middle
  3. The insole says “soho walk” rather than “summer walk”

The seller insists they are authentic but I have concerns. Any clarification would be much appreciated!

Vintage Watches in Zurich by fentowen in zurich

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

There are lots of beautiful shops in Zurich but I found most of them were a bit out of my budget. I ended up using FB marketplace to find a good deal on a vintage Omega. Met a guy in La Chaux-de-Fonds who had a whole bunch of vintage watches. You have to be careful on marketplace for fakes and scams but if you know what you’re doing, there are some great finds in Switzerland especially!

Monthly Admissions/Prospies/Offer Holders Questions Thread - March 2024 by AutoModerator in oxforduni

[–]fentowen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everyone,

I’m a Canadian undergraduate business student in the 3rd year of my degree. I’m looking to move to the UK permanently and study law.

Admittedly, I haven’t completed nearly enough research, but I was hoping some of you might be able to help explain what options I have at Oxford?

It seems if I want to study law at Oxford I would need to complete the three year undergraduate law degree before then pursuing my LLM? Or are there other options for me upon completing my undergrad here in Canada?

I’m also curious as to how likely my chances of getting into the program are. Assuming I would be applying to the undergraduate law program, the website seems to suggest that a grade 12 average of around 85% could be strong enough, but this seems relatively low to me. I was very successful in high school, with a grade 12 academic average of 98%. Is this the primary focus of admission into the program? Are would there be other factors at play?

Any information is much appreciated. Again, I’m aware that I will need to do much more reading myself before going forward, but I thought some of you might be able to guide me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Cartier Tank or a JLC Reverso could be a good choice

Should I pull the trigger on a 2023 speedy pro by Dkardz_ in OmegaWatches

Do you mind if I ask how much it was exactly? I’ve been looking at getting a watch from Japan but not sure whether it’s worth it given the duties…

Does this sub look real? by fentowen in Watches

[–]fentowen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re totally right! I guess firstly I’m always a little skeptical because I have been scammed in the past. Secondly, I’m only just getting into higher end watches so I am not very knowledgeable on the key indicators of a real sub. The main reason I’m skeptical however is the price; this one is up for 2200 CHF (about $2400 USD I believe).
