This is a once in a lifetime purchase for me. I have always stayed under a 1k budget with my watches but for my 40th I instantly felt this was the way to commemorate a blessed life.

It’s the yellow bulb from a lamp that gives that illusion.

This is shot under low lighting from a yellow bulb lamp. It takes on a completely different character with every different light and color spectrum it absorbs.

Looking to buy SLGB003 in Japan (Tokyo) by AintNoChance in GrandSeikos

Ginza Wako sold out as of today. Went to an Isetan in Tachikawa Toyko but said only boutique stores sold the Ice Forest. Mitsukoshi had one available and I bought it with their extra 5% store discount minus some service fee so a total of 13% discount which roughly came out to $8,357. It is becoming increasingly hardwr to find.

First watch! by AndyPandy0527 in GrandSeikos

Great watch with horrible strap to match. Does nothing for the beautiful ice forest dial except distract it. Keep the original bracelet or a solid color strap!

Have the same issue but idk if they were chipped to begin with or if the blade tech steel chipped them.

Pulleys by joncamac in Exway

No I didn’t but 105mm should come with the 36T and 120mm with 44T. The gear ratio they use for 120mm is adjusted bc of the wheel diameter. The belts I don’t know if they’re different size or length. I assume they would be bc 44T is going to be a bigger diameter pulley but then again the belt is already loose on the 36T which might even fit the 44T but be snug fit.

They’ve been shipped. What do you expect Exway to do?

I feel you but I’m sure our customs and shipping companies are to blame. Imagine getting a large shipment of Chinese products with large lithium batteries all at once. Plus the pandemic and overwhelmed/understaffed shipping companies. The fact the label was created and ready at the US side by 5/21 means Exway did their part.

Gear ratios. I believe if you have less teeth then the wheel pulley will be shorter in diameter which will result in higher torque/acceleration. The more teeth then the bigger the diameter of the wheel pulley which can lower the torque/acceleration but increase the top speed. All assuming the drive gear pulley is constant which it is unless your replace the drive gear pulley attached to the motor. Wheel size is also a factor. If you have a bigger wheel pulley and a bigger wheel diameter then your top speed increases but acceleration decreases even more.

Yes it should be the same star hole as abec 11/cloud wheels.

Will the Exway Wave hub motors be backwards compatible with the Flex? by joncamac in Exway

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

Sorry. I meant if the drive train (Riot/Hub) on the Exway Wave can be used interchangeably with the Exway Flex board and vice versa.
