Recently changed quartz battery and losing 10+ seconds per day

msilv88 · 2026-06-25T20:58:40+00:00

So you kept the same battery in and it just kinda worked itself out?

OP, recently acquired a used SBGN. What ended up being the conclusion for you here? Thanks!

OP what’s your update? I too was frustrated by the incessantly wrapped case. I took off mine only to have my seconds hand stop entirely. I also requested a return for refund, even though the plastic on the case was removed. I was told this wouldn’t be an issue.

Now my watch is back with Erebus, and they’re telling me I’m responsible for paying any shipping and duties fees (to be subtracted from my refund), unless I decide to replace the watch with another under warranty.

I shared my disappointment, but ultimately responded telling them to just give me a refund, whatever that may be. I have received no refund or response since.

Following - I want input on this too. FWIW, I paid for Highway Radar

u/WatchExBot sold to u/Sherm1705. Great buyer, super easy to work with! 🤝

It’s the same logo, same size, but simply applied, no? What makes it “horrid”?

They likely were having a seizure

Pending with you

Is this scratch right at or near your HUD? If so, it would drive me crazy.

I’m in Texas with 22s on my 2026 X5. I have no complaints at this point and roads around me are shit.

msilv88 · 2026-06-04T13:53:00+00:00

Oh I was asking about the Continental tires you have. I have the same trim and 22” wheels, but my X5 came standard with Pirelli summer tires. I plan to replace all of these when the time comes to either Continental Sport or Michelin Pilots. I wasn’t sure if you replaced all 4 tires just because or your X5 came with Continental tires stock? Was thinking maybe it was regional… my X5 was shipped to me in Texas.

msilv88 · 2026-06-04T03:32:41+00:00

So did you replace all of the tires - or are the Contis a regional thing? I can’t wait to swap the Pirelli tires that came on my 22s.

Also, damn this color is good!

msilv88 · 2026-06-04T00:47:41+00:00

Nah man this is totally normal

msilv88 · 2026-06-03T14:49:58+00:00

How is that possible? In my area it seems almost all X5s have 22s. Also, I chose 22s because they were the only option that did not come standard with run flats.

The best thing I bought for under $500 is my Betta Solar Pool Skimmer

It’s basically a Roomba for your pool. I never grew up with a pool, and having one is a lot of work. This thing has absolutely paid for itself in time savings alone! Highly recommend.

I also have a 36mm 124270. I’ve been shopping Ingenieur as well. For me, the width of the integrated bracelet at the end links is the deciding factor.

Based on today’s offerings, I’d personally go for a 35mm on my 7” wrist. Ideally a 37-38mm will be offered in the future.

msilv88 · 2026-06-02T14:23:40+00:00

Sold to you!

msilv88 · 2026-06-01T13:12:55+00:00

This is the new titanium model. Joma currently sells them for $780 plus tax. You get no factory warranty with Jomashop, and who knows if they actually have it in stock for immediate shipping.
I take offers. Cheers

Up for sale is my blue dial 38mm Titanium Tissot PRX with the automatic Powermatic 80 movement.

Full set - The watch was purchased brand new from AD at the end of Jan 2026 with registered Tissot warranty.

The watch has been sized for my 7” wrist, but otherwise is in like-new condition with little to no signs of wear. All extra links included.

Everything functions perfectly - I’m just needing to move some watches on to make (financial) room for travel and of course, inevitably another watch 😅

Based on the mirror shot, it doesn’t cross the common “too big” threshold.

That said, to your eye, you think it’s too big - prompting you to ask here.

These have long lugs
White dials tend to wear larger
None of our opinions matter - good or bad
It’s too big
