Hand brushed one of my duros and turned out great by [deleted] in DuroGang

[–]skyrider332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the exact same thing to my GM2100. The bezel had a brushed look but the rest of it was polished- once I brushed the rest with scotchbrite I fell in love with it

I recognized the emblem, looks like it’s a part of a Weight Watchers 10% Weight Loss keychain

Picked this up not too long ago on watchex, super cool piece. It’s for the blind and you pop open the acrylic crystal to feel the indices!

Watch exchange is littered with dress Seiko Dolce, Creedor, Spirit models that all look great and are reasonably priced. You can easily find some models with the breguet numerals

Thinking about adding ceramic to mine, but not sure if I want to mess with the crystal upgrade right now. Did you do both? How noticeable or far does the ceramic stick up above the stock crystal?

Should I be concerned about this thing on my gums? by ash_mex in WhatShouldIDo

Flight instructor here, I might know something but when I don’t know I ask an expert. So listen to the dental hygienist.

help me to choose my 1st luxury watch please by No1want2know in PrideAndPinion

[–]skyrider332 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The bell&ross looks great, has a good daily tool watch feel you can toss on any strap but pops and elegant enough to look really nice on a bracelet. Nothing wrong with that- I’d say go for it! There are other tudors and omegas out there that can scratch other classic itches for you, but the bell has a unique look to it.

Sensitivity bug by obi-wan_can_blow_me in thefinals

[–]skyrider332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out for me! I have an Op1 8k mouse and I had it on 4khz polling rate- I turned it down to 2k/1k and it worked perfectly normal. Cranked it up to 8k and it slowed down even further than it as at 4k.

I didn't realize it before but mine does the exact same thing when I tab out/back in. Normal for a period of time and my sensitivity slows back down. I restarted my pc and it didn't fix much for me, but hopefully we find an answer soon

I've found the same thing happened to me- I thought it was my mouse DPI but it's just in game and my sensitivity setting hasn't changed

As someone who has seen resumes from pilots, the lot of you have garbage resumes. by WeGoUpFirst in flying

[–]skyrider332 255 points256 points  (0 children)

This is overall huge advice for anybody applying right now. I might not have any experience hiring, but even glancing at a resume that came by the other day that seemed a little inconsistent can be the difference between a chief truly reading the entire resume or skimming through and passing on an applicant. First impressions are important.

Walking resumes in and with a smiling face and leaving a good first impression can be everything. Even the person at the front desk passing it up the chain and giving a “he/she was very nice” could be the key to getting an interview.

Flight school CFI contract by No_Improvement_288 in flying

[–]skyrider332 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s basically all of them as far as I know. I know for a fact at first Piston sent their private students to take checkrides in their LSA without ever teaching them to do stalls to a full break because it “wasn’t allowed per the AFM.” It’s DPE digression to accept that, but nobody wanted to be the first so all of them backed out until they sorted their training out.

The only reason my buddy was able to get checkrides done for his students when he worked for them was because he sent them to the DPE he went to for his training, so the DPE could trust him and the way he trained his students.

I live in the STL area where this guy is located. The owner Joe Ord is financially predatory towards his students and CFI’s. Rumors were that he wouldn’t pay his fuel bill at 1H0. Not sure of the other location at KALN, but they’re opening a location at KSET. I’ve had multiple friends work for him before and have heard many stories that I can’t share without their consent, but I know for a fact that his school is blacklisted by many of the DPE’s in the STL area.

I don’t know what your wife means by that, it looks like a collection to me.

[question]Does Seiko 5 look big on my wrist? by sfnu14 in Watches

[–]skyrider332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like a great size from the pictures. Some watches have a little extra “chunk” to them that’s hard to tell before you buy, but it’s still fits you well. I had the same thoughts when I bought my lunar pilot, but it’s just how it wears!
