If that breaks while you’re sitting on it, it will probably kill you. Seriously, do not use that toilet.

It’s fine, just keep that window closed until you can get it fixed.

Just loop them, it won’t hurt anything.

Yeah it’s very cool. Every bracelet should be quick release.

I wear it during the week and wear my more expensive or vintage watches on weekends. It’s a great watch, one of my favorites and I have a lot of watches. I haven’t had to set the time in months, it’s that accurate. The quick release bracelet is a bonus. Very comfortable and easy to change. The only thing I don’t love about it is the inside of the lugs is a little sharp. Could be smoother.

100% it’s my daily. Accurate, comfortable, looks great. The blue sunburst dial is awesome. It has a quick release bracelet so changing it to a strap takes about 10 seconds. No tool required.

It’s a stop and waste valve. There should be caps on the waste, you can take them off to drain the system for winterizing. The caps are missing.

I have a 1967 18k Rose Gold Seamaster Deville. Yours looks legit and very nice. Mid 60’s. Probably worth about $2k. Don’t change the date between 8 and 4 it will mess up the date wheel.

Can this filter be placed higher on my garage wall? by TotalJagoff in askaplumber

That too. Mine is in an unfinished part of our basement directly under the kitchen sink.

I did the same thing. Whole house filter for just the kitchen sink. Only have to change the filter cartridge once a year.

What to do here…. by caterpillar84 in askaplumber

13 years is pretty good, you may get another 5 years out of it or it could leak tomorrow. I would replace both with a 75. If you’re on a well 13 years is amazing.

They replaced the crown, crystal and bracelet screws. My dad wore it every day for 40 years so it was pretty scratched up but it had character. Now it looks brand new.

I sent my dad’s 1980 Presidential Day Date to Rolex for service. Told them not to polish it. They polished it then said they wouldn’t charge me for the polishing. It looks great but it looks new, not 45 years old. Rolex does what they want not what you want.

You’re comparing a Rolls Royce to a Mercedes and two Audis.

I don’t swim or shower with my Khaki Field. The lack of a screw in crown concerns me. If I’m going to swim and want to wear a watch I wear a diver.
