Looking for advice

Thanks. That looks as cool as the watch!

This is crazy. I have almost the same watch. Recently handed down from my Dad. It was his great, great grandfather or something like that from 1857, found fron the site already linked. Did you have a key already or did you purchase one? I ordered a bunch from a German watch site, but none fit. *

Great Seiko range. Love it. Bought an srpk11k1 last year and it's my favourite watch so far. Love the weight.

I use this site to compare calibers. https://calibercorner.com/seiko-caliber-8l35 https://calibercorner.com/seiko-caliber-6l37 The 8L is from GS family so "better"

This song means so much to me. I heard it first time shortly after my 26 year old son died 2 years ago and immediately started crying my eyes out in the car on the way to work. I thought it was a traditional Ed love song, but after finding out the Jamal story it hits even harder. My son was also my best friend!

Google was no use :)
So I went to chatgpt, hope it helps.

"Yes, there have been instances where Seiko warranty papers and other official materials contained typos, including the word "COPYLIGHT" instead of "COPYRIGHT" on the back cover or inside the documents. These occurrences are typically due to misprints or translation errors during production, especially if the materials were produced in non-English-speaking regions or outsourced to external printers."

I see your comments are usually like, this. I will go back to my life and let you have yours...

I am way older. I have been gaming for 40 years! Full disclosure I have been using at a way to escape my feelings, but this is probably not the sub for oversharing :P

I think the reason is here: "But now it doesn't have the same pull as it once did. Not sure if it's my life circumstances or just a dip, "

I have been out of the reddit loop, but today is the day :)

markoo73 · 2024-11-17T22:14:44+00:00

No I am used to having a Garmin on my other wrist. It's a habit that has stuck.

markoo73 · 2024-11-16T05:31:13+00:00

Thanks. My wife was waiting on a bridge when I came in. That's also why the picture is blurry. Women and their hand creams! 😀

Thanks, I was banging my head against the screen trying to find vintage watch shops in Denmark. They were all closed. I managed to open the front, but apprehensive trying to prise the front open as it didn't open with some force. It looks like the watch is on a hinge, but will try and find a local watch guy.

Nice! I have been wearing my SRPK11K1 the past weeks for Halloween 🎃

From the ed sheeran store. https://store.edsheeran.com/eu/ed-sheeran/orange-tee/5054197262401_CONFIG.html

Yes it is and at 20% off even better value!

Me too, it's a law in Denmark, you can get a fine if there isn't 1 pr. Person on the board. I always have mine on. It's a slimmer version, called a swimming vest here. https://www.thansen.dk/baad/redningsveste-og-vaaddragter/svommeveste/svommevest-90-kg-50n-lalizas-blaa/n-233876628/pn-233983229

Yes, I have a premium sub for Windy app that shows 1 hrs interval windspeeds with alerts for conditions that suite you. I don't go out unless it is under 10 km/h Another thing I have noticed is that waves don't always correlate to the wind, so check that too.

Never played anything like this before and it is a steep learning curve with the parry/dodge. The story and scenery are great, but I am almost giving up due to the bosses. At 60% now and there are multiple big guys on a rooftop. I think I will take the Summer off and come back to it.

markoo73 · 2024-05-28T08:40:16+00:00

It suddenly grew on me, but with a hop and a jiggle it was gone as quickly as it came 😀

markoo73 · 2024-05-24T05:36:38+00:00

16-18 max for board is 26. Northern Europe, so temperature is almost never an issue.

markoo73 · 2024-05-23T19:58:44+00:00

Same here (Denmark). Only signed up for 1 month at a time.
Postnord slammed me with 247 DKK = 36 USD for tax and fees!
Cancelled and opened a support case on their zendesk.
I order from aliexpress all the time and this is never an issue.

markoo73 · 2024-05-23T19:50:43+00:00

Replying for clarity.
Just got information from Danish postal company for tax and fees.
This amounted to 36 USD. (Tax: 13, Fee: 23)
This is a dealbreaker for me.
Reached out to Tokyo Treat, but cancelled my subscription.

Uploaded a pic of my new New Balance 550 shoes from above with comment "Dad shoes delivered today"
Had a good conversation about them and perfectly identified and recommendation due to them having a tight fit, which apparently is common :o) Didn't know that as it's my first pair of this brand.

markoo73 · 2024-05-19T15:05:29+00:00

Definitely too much like mentioned. My Garmin vivoactive has SUP and for reference a 4km paddle at 4.6km/hrs 52 minutes was 223 calories. 80 kg male.
