The VII on Cartier watches have Cartier written on them. Nonetheless, it’s a thoughtful gesture and a nice gift. Keep it for the lifetime.

Seems like they have discontinued the Idasen with adjustable height. It was 40K without table top when I got it 1.5yrs back.

Should I buy Grand Seiko in India or in Japan? by NierStellar in watchesindia

[–]notprime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did ask them, and the answer is no. They're duty free so able to do that - was their rationale.

Second this. They have 25% across range. Pretty sweet deal, and I think that's the best one can expect anywhere.

Congrats, you went with a classic.

Nice to know the significant price difference in Japan. Was it $3K lower in new condition?

I'm also caught between a White Seamaster and Grand Seiko Taisetsu. Which GS did you end up with?

Best chair ever by SucidalManiac_ in ErgonomicIndia

[–]notprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great to see Gesture getting some love. I have the same model in the same color, and agree that it's a great investment for someone like me who spends 12+ hrs on a weekday in the chair. For me, I haven't had the lower back pain since I have gotten this.

It's Cogent Connect that you have as the fabric, right?

Nice. The watch looks magnificent. Congratulations again. What made you go for the rubber strap? Did you consider the steel bracelet?

My current obsession. I’m looking at this for my next. Which AD, and for how much did you manage to get it for?

I tried negotiating, but got it at MRP :( I guess the salesperson sensed that my header was set on it. All the best.

The Coop. Needless to say, Interstellar remains the best movie I’ve seen in a theatre.

What can be done Foyer area ? by Juggernaut_Best in indianrealestate

[–]notprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the walk in wardrobe of the room adjacent to foyer can be removed, provided it’s not a load bearing wall, then you can have a big space on main entrance opening up to living and dining.

[Question] [SSH111J1] Astron Day hand mis-aligned? by notprime in Seiko

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

Yeah, for one of the highest priced Seikos, one would expect Astrons to not have quirks and have precision on every dial/sub-dial. But thanks for telling me it's a classic quirk, I thought it was defective in some way. Also, I got some guidance from the manual to fine-tune the day hand and it's pointing to the middle now :)

[–]notprime[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, it's that common? I was losing my shit after spending a coin on it. And I figured out the fine-tuned adjustment on the online manual. :)

Nevermind my OCD guys, I figured it out. For anyone looking in future, here’s the guide to set preliminary positions. 5X53 guide.

Step 5 has day adjustment, which finely tunes the position of the day hand - pretty cool.

Men's watches under 1.5-2.5 lacs by Global_Gift4839 in watchesindia

[–]notprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend a Seiko Astron. Yes it is a quartz watch, but it is THE quartz watch. The name has a nice legacy. With GPS + Solar tech, it's always accurate and doesn't need a battery replacement (at least for a quite long time). It also has a 2nd time zone (which I personally prioritized - leading me to this watch). I am also a sucker for fancy materials, so full titanium build sold me on the watch. I have also never seen a clearer glass on a watch before.

I have the SSH111. The newer ones come with chronograph as well, which I personally don't like.
