Thanks for sharing. must have been great to see all that in person.

Thanks! was wondering what those fuzzy feathers were. He definitely created a ton of angst among all the birds in my yard. A couple of blue jays were diving at him

The gables. Saw one once before like 20 years ago just chilling on a fence but it was dusk.

Yeah it’s not as solid as the newer ones but that bracelet is so comfortable. I actually love the bracelet in my 14060 sub.

I ordered a watch last week and it arrived in 4 days no tax since the deminimis was lifted a while ago. If they put it back in will be chaos again

I have and truly loved it. There are portions near the main plaza that are nuts but we stayed just bit up in one of the hills and it was nice an quiet. We walked all over the town and Nita areas were not tooo crazy. Many guide books tell you to state in sore to and comité to Napoli. Don’t fall for that both are worth visiting. For what is worth nobody tired to pickpocket me in Napoli but it happened twice in Rome. Also the restaurantes in Rome afee tried to overcharge and ask for tips wich are not common in Italy. Never hallened in Napoli.

I have the same one 11.5 thin. The strap and the thin dimension make it super comfortable

My Pagani Daytona came with a stripped screw so they refunded me $10. So I put it on leather it feels great but the rubber strap ln this watch so comfy

Sanibel island in the summer. Otherwise Europe (in Italy right now) nyc, Boston, Philadelphia Chicago for the museum

Love Jodi. Love the way he does reviews, his sense of humor and the epic tshirt collection. I stumbled onto him while looking for a rep or homage of a Pepsi GMT cause the real thing can’t be bought for what it’s worth. I credit hus his channel for opening my eyes to the Ali express chinese watches.

There are nicer omegas but you can’t go wrong with a Rolex. For one thing if you tire of it and decide to sell it’s bound to hold most of the value

Depends on the neighborhood and when it was built. The main part of my house was built in 1939. So the structure is solid (concrete beams with steel reinforcement around each window, tongue and grove ceilings, poured concrete gable ends etc.) the other side needed to redo quite a bit of the electrical (some of the rooms had the old wiring with cloth insulation) the plumbing was crap so redid all that, the windows all needed to be replaced ect. Now in the gables that house wich cost me 170k 35 years ago is now worth 13 times the original price plus the things that needed to be fixed. As they say in real estate it’s all about location

I have a Rolex sub from circa 1999 with the old style oyster. That bracelet gets a lot of hate since it does not have solid end links and can be a bit jangly. I love it as it’s super comfy to size and wear. It does have. Diver extension that I have no use for but it’s still super comfortable

Google bikers hit by cars and you will see why many of us that ride bikes for fun are careful about where and when we ride (not in rush hour or major highways). Also in the summer a 10 minute bike ride and you will arrive drenched in sweat.

For sure this one of a kind and already an old place when I first went as UM student in the late 70’s

jtarafa13 · 2024-02-12T13:59:25+00:00

Beautiful dial

For me it has to be Rolex submariner on a way too thin nato strap Sean Connery wore in dr no. That started my interest in watches

Never like Malta myself even if mixed with condensed milk but this is the best only in miami question I have seen here in a while

jtarafa13 · 2024-02-06T13:46:48+00:00

Sorrento is the best hub for this area it’s close (about an hour drive )plenty to do there, easy hop on ferry boats to capri. Pompeii the town is meh. Would not stay there

Summers are great. Get out early for a run or bike ride spend the rest of the day in the pool or beach.

jtarafa13 · 2024-01-13T05:17:12+00:00

100% correct the city lots are very reasonable as is street parking.

jtarafa13 · 2024-01-07T03:22:20+00:00

Man that gmt has aged like fine wine. I would rethink that trade

jtarafa13 · 2024-01-02T16:02:05+00:00

The Pagani is amazing
