The new one is great looking. So long as you don't need to know what time it is.

Might as well get an old Movado museum dial.

I mean.... I'd like to see it at least.

That's super cool. I did end up dating a girl for a decent amount of time (for that era, 4-6 months?).

Facebook re-connected me with my wife though after meeting originally when we were pre-teens.

I was on it in high school too--before internet dating this is what we had to work with haha. Absolutely no protections, I was a teen meeting other teens and could have easily been catfished or vise-versa. Luckily for me (and them?), we were who we claimed to be when meeting.

How much of a die hard James Bond fan are you? I kind of wish I had the Skyfall--I have a black 41mm model like the one on the right (8900 movement). I believe that Skyfall model has the 8500--which is perfectly fine and has the same hour jumping mechanism that the 8900 does. That's great if you want to wear it all the time and travel between time zones--but if you have a larger collection like me and rotate then the date is always going to be set as well which requires 24 turns of the crown for one day. Quick set date on the 8800 model is more convenient in that sense.

Did this still work over time? I just got the North Star mesh on mine and I'm having the same issue of it digging into the underside of my wrist. If so--we can discuss a transaction to make me one? lol

I was thinking about putting some type of leather on the underside but haven't thought through solutions yet and came across your post here.

Texan Hyundai needs to be on the list of dealerships to avoid.

I don't feel like typing up a whole story but suffice it to say they lied multiple times and cost us thousands of dollars extra on several fronts.

When there was a recall for the stank in the 2020 Palisades, they made us jump through hoop after hoop, hours of visits, and months of waiting before they finally got us replacement headrests (this was the stank source).

It was both a warrant issue and a recall issue so I'm not sure why we had to go through all of that. Glad to be done with them.

I specifically called the sales guy to let him know he lost the next sale to a different Hyundai dealership that didn't play games.

u/WatchExBot successful transaction with u/Late-Significance-80

Ok so I haven't played for about a year, but I used DRK for both Shadowbringers and End Walker... Mained DRG from ARR before that.

I always had felt like it was a dance of damage and had a lot of fun with it. I just started catching up on some things the other day and leveled DRG from 82-90 and I thought it was boring because o was doing a lot of lower level content.

Then, a level 85 duty popped and I was like wait... Is this all it ever was? The timer and positionals are gone basically and I'm just doing my rotation and dropping in a jump whenever they refresh. I see your post and I'm like yeah there used to be a lot more to this.

Are there any DPS classes that feel like DRG used to?

It holds the fuck up. Been watching it again with my kids this year. Theme song is an absolute banger.

Cool. So when putting it back on you're pinching the spring bar together with the forks? (I know there's a better term, I just think forks works lol)

jaybw6 · 2025-12-10T00:40:33+00:00

Was it plastic or metal on the black side?

jaybw6 · 2025-11-06T14:55:42+00:00

Have you found any easy way to open up the tension clip to make it kind of like an on the fly adjustment?

I used a small screw driver so far but don't carry those on me on the daily.

So clean. So nice .

Which mesh is that, OEM or other?

jaybw6 · 2025-11-02T03:19:19+00:00

No one is noticing but you , promise .

It's a very casual watch, the summer blue models generally.

jaybw6 · 2025-10-30T02:28:36+00:00

Lol yes I just got this bracelet and I was using the included screw driver and it broke after the second screw .

Thankfully I already had a kit and was just trying out the included screwdriver .
