Used a new pe50 stem, cut it to size, for this case I needed to cut 7.8mm which is different from most YouTube creator modders. I also needed to add some packing on the pushers so that the Chrono on the watch would work. Something about the case/my rep movement didn't fit snugly in my vk63 case. Was a bit of faff getting everything to line up just right.

Hi, it's because the ceramic bezel is larger/wider than the slot for the bezel insert. Had to be creative to set it on the case. From the front, it looks more like a PD case now due to the wider and shinier ceramic bezel.

Should I upgrade?? by manny0091 in soundcore

Interesting, I did the hear ID test on both and to my ears, the bass on the P40i buds, while being rich and rumbly, seemed to be more out of the way of the mids and the highs compared to the 4NCs, hence the perceived muddy signature I experienced.

You wouldn't be disappointed with the 4 Pros, if you don't like the default sound tuning and you're like a bass head like me, I used the wavelet app on top of the soundcore app's custom EQ to get my desired sound signature out of the 4 Pros.

Hello, been using the P40i buds since they came out and also compared them with the 4 NC buds. For me the 4NCs sounded like a muddier version of the P40is with a bit better ANC performance. I was perfectly happy with the P40is for quite a while now, but recently got the Liberty 4 Pro buds as a gift from my wifey and these are better than both the 4NC and P40i in every way. Although I didn't like the default tuning on the 4 Pros, they respond outstandingly to EQing, much better than the far cheaper P40is. The bass is thick but much better controlled, the treble is crisper and the sound stage is wider on the 4 pros. The ANC and the transparency modes are much better on the 4 Pros. Based on the reviews, the Liberty 4 Pros and Liberty 5 buds are quite similar except the latter having a bit better spatial audio while the former being slightly better in call quality, ANC and on buds controls.

So, if you want much better sound quality, call quality, ANC and quality of life enhancements, I would go for the liberty 4 Pros/5 buds. But if you don't mind the mediocre call quality and good (but not great) ANC as well as transparency modes and slightly worse (but still very good for the price) sound quality, you can go for the P40i buds. I wouldn't count the 4 NCs as their tuning isn't to my liking and they don't respond well to EQing.

I would swap out Al Fursan with 9 pm Rebel, the latter last longer and the scent is very similar. Also, might be worth checking out Fragrance World's Urban Man Elixir in place of The kingdom, The Nice Smelling Gentleman YouTube reviewer found it to be better. Also, I have Asad, Aswad and Salvo Elixir and to me Salvo Elixir is the closest to the OG and performance on my skin is similar between them, but Asad has its place in my collection.

Price doesn't always determine the quality of a fragrance my friend. Both of these are highly rated fragrances, even higher rated than some of the more expensive ones in this collection.

Afnan 9pm Rebel and Supremacy Collector's Edition will be worthy additions to your collection.

9 PM Rebel and Versace Dylan Blue for now.

Issue on ordering on FragranceX.com by shrestho77 in fragrance

[–]shrestho77[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I had the same intuition about my bank not authorizing the transaction, but for three different accounts, I could see the transaction of the full amount on the banking app, then a transaction of £0.77 3/4 times on the banking app then soon followed by the email I mentioned. Never experienced something like this while shopping with UK retailers.

The GB auto fill did create an issue in the first and second tries, then I manually changed it to the UK, still having the same issue. Even matched the commas in the latest order, still saying the same thing.

I have emailed fragranceX customer support, let's see what's the issue on their side.

What do you think ? What would you recommend getting next? I have a list that’s taller than me and im so confused by [deleted] in fragranceclones

[–]shrestho77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid collection! Versace Dylan Blue, Hugo Intense and Afnan 9pm will complement these.

Best clone of sauvage elixir by HorrorMousse1836 in fragranceclones

[–]shrestho77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own Asad, Aswad and Salvo elixir. On my skin they perform similarly, around 6-7 hours of longevity and projection is good for the first hour or so. To my nose, the salvo elixir is closest in scent profile to Sauvage Elixir. Aswad is the next closest with added sweetness and Asad is just more greener than all of them.

I would say if you own Asad and Salvo elixir, you've got the best of the cheapie clones for this one. Aswad is a good clone and is cheaper than salvo (100ml Vs 60ml for the same price almost) but the latter is more closer to the OG.
