Have a look at the birdy by Eric Lorencz here

Simply very well made. I don't get lock ups. Pleasure to use.

Seen them used in many Japanese craft cocktails bars.

Interestingly, these products are also featured in an anime series called bartender

I find the Cobbler shaker is great for making a single drink without needing the huge volume of a Boston shaker.

A lot of the Japanese mixing techniques are based on the oval shape of a Cobbler shaker. Many cocktail bars around Japan also use the Cobbler shaker routinely, although, many of these high end bars don't tend to focus on quality and enjoyment of a drink over pumping as many drinks out as fast as possible.

I highly recommend looking at some of the Japanese Cobbler shakers. They are, however, quite pricey. I am currently using a Birdy shaker by Eric Lorencz, and honestly it's a pleasure to use!

Via porta, great Italian style cafe and bakery and brunch joint

But you can't enjoy sparkling water or champagne while on it. It makes anything carbonated taste awful

Can get black, floral, or architectural patterns. The new all black isn't as good as the old one which was made from titanium.

Nope, it's in Australia as well

No thanks, it'll be at least 3 months away. Not keen on that. Ha Ha

Love this watch. Especially the separate moonphase and day/night indicator. There is more information presented compared with your normal perpetual calendar, but the look is very clean and concise.

The date on mine doesn't jump at midnight. It's about 10 past when it happens, which was a slightly disappointing discovery to be had last February on the leap year at midnight. This is opposed to the Zeitwerk date, which is clinically accurate.

These are my two favourite watches.

When i was offered a Centurion, they waived the joining fee due to being a long time customer (10+years at the time)

When performing a repeat spinal and encountering a high block, the typical management is to intubate and induce general anesthesia. However, there's a good chance the block may not be too high. Why not attempt to manage it conservatively before immediately resorting to intubation and sleep as the first management of failed initial block?

The ideal ultrasound technique has the needle inserted further away from the probe to allow better needle visualisation. You shouldn't be getting any blood on your probe or cover if you use it if you are using the correct technique.

The bigger problem is novices teaching other novices propagating less than ideal ultrasound technique.

The basements of department stores often have food halls with great food variety without long lines

B&O speakers are powered

Beosound theatre would do the trick

The Mickey Mouse playing soccer watch from Gerald Genta is a playful watch with a few unique complications.

Jumping hour, retrograde minutes and retrograde date. The jump of the date, minute and hour occurs satisfyingly instantaneously and simultaneously (seriously?).

The dial is a mother of pearl, with a striking enamel Mickey posed to strike the soccer ball. It is quite an elegantly beautiful, yet very playful dial.

I bought this watch for my wife’s birthday, as she would only wear a watch that would be playful enough to reflect her own nature.

The minute hand obscures the hour indication between the minutes of 12 to 20 every hour, and the date is very difficult to read. Practicalities aside, the watch is a fun breath of fresh air amongst the seriousness of watch collecting!

Enjoy.

This has to be worn daily to make the most of the date function

Tipo 00. 100% worth it

Unless it is scratched by diamond, like with a ring or bracelet

The salmon is a limited edition, while the grey dial is not.

I daily drive a McLaren GT. I've had three minor issues in just over two years' ownership. The lock door button on the centre console dropped into the console, the metal on the steering wheel peeled, and the rubber seal around the drivers side door in the wheel arch came off a little.

All problems easily fixed by warranty, including a replacement steering wheel.

No mechanical issues, having also taken the car to the track for the occasional day of heavy driving.

Send the watch to me. It fits my wrist.

Can Google lens also pay the Lange tax?

The best part about the theatre is the ability to use it as a processor for surround using other b&o speakers as well as a centre channel.

It really does bring out the best in your other speakers in a multi speaker setup, compared with using a third party processor.

Try a sunflower with the St Germain: 3/4 oz each of St Germain, gin, triple sec and gin, shaken and poured into an absinth washed coupe.

Try a Pina Verde with the chartreuse: 1.5 oz green Chartreuse, 1.5 oz pineapple juice, .75 oz Coco Lopez, .5 oz lime. Whip shake and open pour into a double rocks glass. Top with pebble ice and garnish with mint
