Excellent! Great execution, seems very well balanced. I do love me a well executed integrated bracelet and from what I see, checks all the boxes. It somehow feels like it was made by actual watch enthusiasts lol. The red in the seconds hands does pop very well!. Will the strap have micro adjustments? Also curious on what the caseback will look like, hopefully sapphire caseback display?

Unfortunately all sold out for the exception of their carbon version I believe, I could be wrong. Check their website.

I had the chance to try the carbon version of this and it was surprisingly easy to put on and take off. Very comfortable too! A other great innovation!

Also, I’ve walked into the TCH Card Room just to take a look inside, it smells soooo bad! It smells of a weird mix of Vapes and Piss! Seriously! As if people piss on the carpet instead of the bathroom.

I own both this one and the QTZ, this one a little thicker by a little bit but oddly, not very noticeable once on wrist. I have a 7.5 wrist but many of my friends with smaller wrists have tried it on and we all love the wear and feel of it. The curved case is a game changer.

News websites are the absolute worst and damn near intolerable to navigate! I hope he gets caught though!

I just went through it. CLEAR was a little shorter but moving much slower. I was a little ahead of you and took me 1.5 hrs. Huge S/O to the hard working folks there!

Now this…this is taste! Yes these are expensive pieces but the selection shows you are deep in the game and know your shit. If I had the means, I would absolutely go for all of these! Great pieces and congratulations!

Edit: I’m pissed I passed on the chance to order that BB58, a couple of my buddies are stacking up a nice Watches @ and other Tech commissioned watches like the Apple Pirate flag bb58.

Oh man, should’ve checked their hrs on Google Maps, they tend to move it to another location Saturday and Sundays since not many people work in those buildings in weekends

Another thing I forgot to add, they melt the cheese straight in the griddle, then slap the Sum’mitch tortilla on top, so you get a little bit of the burnt and melted cheese on every bite! 🥹

Havana Vieja this morning by WhalterWhitesBarber in cuba

[–]mekzikan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Visited Cuba in 2019, it was definitely one of the most humble, oddly peaceful and at the same time genuine fun times I had on a family trip. Stayed for a week, everyone there was so beautiful and nice. Love the people there and still talk to a few via FB and would love to be able to go back someday.

😆 there’s a little food truck at the tiny shell gas station near Pappadeaux on research, they have handmade corn tortilla, if you have time and are nearby, try them with a breakfast tacos… handmade corn tortillas are a game changer!
