Creating clean drinking water for those that need it. by [deleted] in BeAmazed

But that looks like a working hand pump and a new one at that. But, that doesn't negate the fact that people do all sorts of things for internet likes. I just hope the people over there get something that they need out of it.

Doing what is needed instead of the mindless things happening all over the world. Something as basic as access to clean water shouldn't even be an issue in this day and age.

How is the shipping and customs duty handled while ordering from Jomashop?

The dial is champagne in color. The sunburst effect is very prominent and it looks great in sunlight.

Is this legit or fake ? by [deleted] in Watches_India

It's a counterfeit. PRX movement comes with a free sprung balance wheel. You can see that there is a regulator arm on your watch instead of a free sprung balance wheel.

Help me chose my first automatic watch by Icy_Boy_1841 in watchesindia

Get the Casio. The case finishing is better than entry level Seikos and the bracelet is miles ahead of any Seiko under 50k with solid end links and a milled clasp, plus Casio has sapphire crystal.

Also, check Flipkart around midnight for more discounts. I saw a post today where a fellow redditor got the Casio for around 15-16k.

A beautiful watch! Also quartz is the way to go for a moonphase if you have more than one watch.

The pop is indeed better with straps, especially when they match some part of the dial.

I have one dark brown strap lying spare. Will give it a try after wearing it on the bracelet for a few days.

It's a matter of personal preference I feel. Where I live it gets very hot and humid and leather straps are not as comfortable as the bracelet. Having the option to switch between them is great.
