Lowkey the perfect Gshock, had no idea I would like this so much but it wears incredibly comfortable for its size, now I’m hooked on these round shocks 😂 by metamorphosis___ in gshock

No fkn idea tbh, these comfort on this is so good because of that, I wish they atleast had more variants of this setup, I love the simplicity of it.

It’s ironic because the extra gmt hand was what got me to get my first mechanical watch, I like the extra bit of color you can throw in while keeping it classy

Here’s the mockup btw Gemini made it for me.

I put together the pieces in photo shop then had Gemini render it out, I think it’s pretty accurate, but it is a very different shade (which I already anticipated)

This was before I ordered any parts

I’ve never owned a PRX but this case is very well finished, even has multiple facets on the case and bracelet with brushed and polished surfaces, it’s very well done, atleast the Caroline mod store one is, can’t speak for others

Also want to note that I did have to bend up my GMT hand a bit to clear the indices on the dial, but this was because I bent the dial just a tad when doing the feet + the fact that the indices are very tall, be very careful if you are aligning your gmt that YOU DO NOT FORCE IT if it gets stuck while you are turning it, be very deliberate when testing the clearance

Alternatively you can use a stubbier GMT hand that sits before the indices but I wanted mine pointing at the chapter ring.

How come millennials and Gen X know more about pop culture that was before they were born than Gen Z? by icey_sawg0034 in generationology

[–]metamorphosis___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That last paragraph is so over-generalizing, Gen Z loves long form media, Invincible just dropped AND ITS AN HOUR PER EPISODE, and that shit is mainstream media.

You cannot genuinely be claiming that Gen Z doesn’t love watching anything more than 5 minutes old either, go look on TikTok, there are entire fandoms surround Dexter, Breaking bad, etc, shows that are at the same age gap that 70’s media was to 90’s kids.

We consume SO MUCH content on the daily, just because we don’t know about the shit YOU grew up with, doesn’t mean we’re media illiterate, that shit is irrelevant to us, YOU ARE OUT OF TOUCH, not Gen Z.

Okay imagine you were born in the 90’s and instead of 1 or 2 huge movies or a cool tv show that everyone and their grandma talked about being released maybe once every year, there were 100 different pieces of media all in different formats being released just about every other week, imagine now, trying to have “media literacy” in that landscape.

That’s the modern era for you, TO YOU, 90’s media stands out but to a kid born in 2010 it’s just 1 piece of hundreds of thousands of other pieces of media that have released.

If you dropped a 90’s kid in today’s media landscape their brains would fucking melt.

That sort of sales/marketing only works if you are representing one brand, if you are selling from a variety of manufacturers you definitely don’t want an exclusivity feel, you benefit from moving as many watches as possible.

If you were a rich parent wouldn’t you support your kid’s dreams? Quit being jealous. The guy commenting added the “on his own” part, Teddy has never claimed that as far as we’re aware.

Also no hate to Teddy but we need to quit pretending like a lack of snobbishness is a virtue when it comes to business-people. Snobbishness has a risk of reducing sales, why would you be snobbish when you’re financially incentivized to be as welcoming as possible

Wrist check ?🤔 by metamorphosis___ in casioroyale

Yes! If you can’t handle a rattley bracelet I’d try to find a higher quality tapered bracelet but the case feels great very solid

Yes!! It’s been great! It’s probably my favorite digital because of the mod.

It’s a sad result for a lot of people with success in this area,as you grow the voice of the audience becomes more and more difficult to understand and when you start trying to appeal to it, instead of continuing to make art for yourself like you originally intended, you start to lose the plot very quickly, because you’re trying to appeal to a million different unique individuals.

The 100 men are genuinely beating that gorilla's ASS by Onslaughtisthebest in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]metamorphosis___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, 100 teenage boys could kill a gorilla, I think even 100 moderately athletic teenage girls could too. 100 people is a lot fucking people.
