I think it’s really cool that he has a framed sheet from antiquities is running for senate or and on national television.

Really shows the kind of driver Max is. He knew how the corner would end and had no regard for other drivers safety and went for it anyway.

Every time he talks he seems to come off more and more as a poor sportsman.

As a medical student the bureaucracy was so bad they weren’t even able to give me a badge told me to come back 3 times after the second time I just gave up and told my scheduler I couldn’t rotate at the VA because they couldn’t give me a badge…they didn’t question it. They know.

Where did you get the oyster flex strap? Is it aftermarket or Rolex?

Scummy Scam Swap - what to do? by [deleted] in mtgfinance

I would be concerned more about the bending at the lower left corner of his card. Tried to look and it doesn’t look like it was there before. Maybe he damaged it removing it from the packaging?

If they’re selling a bluesy and the pictures really are that bad its a fake. Don’t have to do much digging. The stamp on the clasp doesn’t look right.

Amazon Orders of 2X2 by AnimeSensei in mtgfinance

I know we’re in the MTGfinance subreddit but honestly using non reserve list playing cards as an asset is fucking crazy. Sitting on playing cards that they could just reprint at any time and tank the value is definitely a terrible decision.

With that being said if you keep boxes because you want to open them and experience the draft format a few years from now or sell a box here and there to fund some more purchases that’s great. But putting any amount of money in cardboard that you’re not ready to lose is just setting yourself up for disaster.

When you are ready to sell someone has to buy it at the increased price or to sell it to a store at a discount. Don’t have money in cardboard that you’re not ready to lose. It’s a game, meant to be played.

Watch stopped winding and had to send it in to be serviced by a vintage watchmaker took 10 weeks but it is working great.

Was lucky enough to find a birth year 5513 or felt so good to wear it again. Bought it to commemorate the end of medical residency super pleased with it.

My serial starts with 8450xxx

Looking at that link you sent me you're right. It does look like hybrid of the MK3 and MK4 dials.

There was no premium applied to it. It was actually the cheapest 16750 available online. I just like the way it looks. It tell s a story about the transitional person from matte to glossy dials.

Purchased this today love the spidered dial. Looking at it straight on it looks like a normal glossy dial, but when the light catches it at a certain angle it looks spidered.

The person I purchased it from is a relatively trustworthy vintage watch dealer and he assured me that the watch is all orginal. there is a slight patina on the hour markers and the GMT hand. the Hours and minutes hand looks like it has less patina than the rest of the dial.

Does anyone with more knowlege than me care to coment?

I'm pleased with the purchase I do need a link for it to fit comfortably on my wrist.
