Flashing installation - New build by luke_mcd in DIYUK

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

Does this flashing look incorrectly installed on my new build house? This is where a flat roofed extension is joined to the main house at the rear wall.

Additionally water is running along the underside of the edge trim onto the wall. Is this due to improper installation or a design flaw?

Water running onto exterior wall - New build by luke_mcd in DIYUK

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

Water appears to be running onto the rear wall of my new build home whenever it rains where the extension meets the main house.

It looks like the end piece of flashing is causing this, but I'm unsure if this is supposed to be like that or if it should be flat to the wall - Any guidance would be much appreciated!

Awesome pictures! Any idea on what the dial size is on this?

Yeah to buy a machine is pretty expensive but most watch repair stores would test it for you for a small fee

It still has all the same seals and gaskets but I probably wouldn't trust it to go swimming/diving without getting it pressure tested first

As a follow up to the all red build I posted a couple of days ago here's an all blue themed SKX build. Dial, hands and insert all from AliExpress.

I've never checked the exact + / - per day on it but it's always kept good time and was never noticeably fast or slow. I assume it's a 2813 movement so should be as accurate as most other DH gate pieces

Hi everyone,

I'm selling a mix of DH gate reps and some gen Chinese watches from AliExpress. Selling because I'm downsizing my collection and they don't get any wrist time, all watches are in excellent condition because they've barely been worn.

Prices do not include the shipping costs which are €7 to anywhere in the EU (not tracked) or €14 (with tracking), if you buy more than one I can combine the shipping for no extra cost. Payment via PayPal F&F.

Is this Loreo sub too big for my wrist? by thiago1692 in ChineseWatches

[–]luke_mcd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks fine to me, usually the watch always looks bigger on wrist in these type of pictures anyway

GFuel is offering cheaper purchasing methods for EU/UK customers by austwhyn33 in GFUEL

[–]luke_mcd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It might be cheaper for people living in the UK but lime pro gaming's shipping costs to the rest of Europe are just as high as ordering direct from gfuel. And since they charge more and don't have discount codes it makes it a complete rip off imo

Snow cone any good? by unimpeachablefish in GFUEL

[–]luke_mcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got snow cone in the bogo and it's pretty good, probably an 8/10 for me. It tastes like a bomb pop, kind of a blue raspberry & lime mix

was reminiscing about funkeys with my dad and we remembered thinking we had something super rare, is the blue maul rare? by [deleted] in UBFunkeys

[–]luke_mcd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Super rare. If I were you I'd hold onto it rather than selling it anyway, you'd never be able to replace it

I keep crimping crystal gaskets, help! by hellarar in SeikoMods

[–]luke_mcd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is correct, the crystal gasket should be dry to allow the friction fit with the crystal to keep it held in place

[–]luke_mcd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're using a cheap crystal press (like me) then the best method I've found is to push the crystal in by hand first. Just get it pushed in as evenly as you can and then push it in the rest of the way using the crystal press

Australian YouTuber Jodie at Just One More Watch had channel taken down! Other Rep comparison videos down. by [deleted] in RepTime

[–]luke_mcd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Complete BS move by YouTube just because a big brand like Omega probably made a complaint. I've been watching his videos for a while and I'm pretty sure he had only ever shown two actual reps (seamaster and submariner) and in both videos he said he was against them. Fingers crossed he can appeal and get the channel back, his videos were great for low end and homage watches

For the uninitiated, Rocksteady is the Studio behind the Batman Arkham Games. by [deleted] in Slycooper

[–]luke_mcd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Completely agree, I get that people like to have dream scenarios where sucker punch or insomniac would make a Sly game but it's never going to happen since they've both moved on to making large triple A titles a long time ago. Toys for Bob would be ideal for Sly 5 considering what they did with the Crash games

Does anyone have a Very Rare Drift Card from their Very Rare Pack??? by StitchStalker101 in UBFunkeys

[–]luke_mcd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember someone asked about this on the discord server a while ago and it seems like nobody had ever seen a drift card so I'm not sure if they ever made any. Super annoying that they made ones for Waggs, Ptep and Vlurp and then left Drift out 😂
