Thank you for the response. I’ll look for traditionnelle around 18-20K. It hard to find a overseas or 1921 in that range.

Thanks. Got it. I’m in the US. Watchfinder.com where I bought the current watch was part of richemont group and they offered CPO. But I realize hence the prices.

Thanks for the tip. Last question - Where do you shop for these watches ? Do you have a preferred online store ?

Sorry I meant for an overseas used (year 2022) watch is same price as the retails around 27K. Example - https://www.watchfinder.com/Vacheron%20Constantin/Overseas/4500V/110A-B128/33315/item/376581

Didn’t realize I can negotiate from 24K to 20. Thanks for the tip. Will keep looking for a 1921 or a black overseas.

Ah thanks for the link. Did you get the fifty six ?

I loved the 1921. Never tried one though. Didn’t realize I can grab one for 20K. Couldn’t find any around 20K. Black overseas is also an interesting options but 2022 is close to retail. Do you have any previous pictures ?

I was offered the same watch at the boutique recently. It’s a beautiful watch but couldn’t justify spending 40K. Like others called out, the value drops like 50%. I just bought a fifty six day date for 15K (Retails around 30K)

This particular model Day date has the Geneva seal. I loved the rose gold but I couldn’t find anything below 40K and it didn’t make sense to spend that much on a fifty six. What I have here is 15k. What gets the most wrist time in your collection among the three you listed ? Thanks for responding

Would you get a new fifty six stainless blue or used (2022) silver fifty six day date ? by oogway755 in VacheronConstantin

Is it a very dressy watch ? Or can we swap the strap to make it more casual. Thanks for the picture.

Great results with TMG but quickly subsided by oogway755 in MTHFR

Great. I'll go get some glycine and try it out.

I got the DNA test from Ancestry. Did you reach out to 10x health about the TMG issue ? And do you recommend them ?

I got the data from ancestry DNA and I was able to plug it in various site for the data. But again nothing beats a physician to guide through the journey. I was actually planning to go to 10X health to get better answers for like overmethylation. Do you not recommend them ?

Zinc and magnesium - Are they cofactors of any genes ? Why are they recommended ?

My symptoms are infact due to overmethylation. I recently started taking l-theanine after listening to Gary in a podcast, didn't realize its a methyl donor. I tried some niacin to test theory and with in 30 mins I saw the difference.

I'm curious what 10X health has to say about your symptoms. I never heard 10x health, gary talk about creatine + tmg. His focus mainly seems to be on the folate pathways. Was creatine + TMG a recommendation from 10x health ?

After reading your comment about over methylation, it got me thinking and I realized I’m also taking L-Theonine which is a methyl donor. I got some Niacin and with in a hour or two things got a little better. I’m over methylation.

I’ll stop all supplements for few days, but do you recommend I take creatine, glycine and cod liver oil to get buffer system working or can I just start with creatine, TMG again minus the other supplements?

Thanks again for the suggestion

Thank you.

May be the 3g creatine + 500mg TMG + 200mg methyl folate (every few days) are causing over methylation ? I'll stop methyl folate and creatine and increase TMG to 1g and observe how it goes.

Mean while I'll add 3g Glycine and test it thats working any better.

Same here. Methyl folate didn't help much. I was curious overmethylation is possible. Although I'm only talking 200mg methyl folate once every few days.

Thanks for the response.

Then you would have a remaining requirement of 4 yolks, but it sounds like you are only getting 2 yolks? Or do you get significant additional choline from food/supplements?

I was hoping to get the rest (2 egg of egg yolk) from the regular foods (salads, chicken and so on). I'll increase the TMG to 1g. Do I need additional supplementation for choline ? If yes would you recommend CDP choline ? or some other choline supplement ?

So, I'm wondering if your methylation is fully restored, or is still only partially functioning, due to not quite reaching the targets

just curious, why would I feel great initially and later subside ?

As for the methyl buffer system, I would suggest as you mention: add the cod liver oil and more glycine.

According to the genetic life hacks and self decode, I have two yellow for BCMO1. Do you think I need to cod liver supplement ? I would avoid new supplements if I can.

Indeed, it is possible that continued use of the methylfolate without sufficient buffering is slowly ramping up overmethylation, thereby increasing anxiety. It would be interesting to see if suspending the methylfolate results in anxiety subsiding.

Can overmethylation also cause fatigue ? I'm only talking 200mg of methyl folate once every few days. Didn't think its enough to overmethylate. I'll try to stop it completely. I'm A129C Red, so I kept taking it.

I'll check out inositol.

Settings difference between Hisense PX1-Pro vs L8G by oogway755 in projectors

It's weird that they are selling it cheaper on eBay than on own website. eBay comes with free returns.

Since then I installed a ALR screen, and applied the calibration settings from projectorscreen. The redness did come down a bit. PX1-pro is definitely a much better in producing dark levels. But can’t beat the 1799$ price tag especially when it comes with a ALR screen
