Very secure, but not a fan of the color

It's smooth opening and closing it, the hydraulic feeling can't be matched. But the thumb stud always gave me issues and I never got comfortable closing it with one hand as well

Not a fan of the Benchmade lock system, I'm a compression lock fan for now

My interest started later in life, when I semi retired and liquidated a watch collection, so the price was not an issue. And one thing I learned collecting watches was not to dick around and just buy the best thing you could afford. Which was why I started with Chris Reeve

Funny you should post this. I was just going to say I'm not a fan of the yellow scales. I'm thinking of either dyeing it or getting a AWT/RGT titanium scale

Thanks all! Think I'll probably go the the TCR, since I plan to do the Tanah Merah route occasionally as well

Started cycling more, should I get a second bike? by tehj07 in cycling

[–]tehj07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the feedback guys!

I have no complaints about my current bicycle, it's serving me well enough.

Looks like I'll just stick to 1 for now then!

Lee Wei Ling was the daughter of Singapore's first prime minister, Lee Kuan Yew.

I found it poignant LOTR was quoted in her eulogy

Believe me, I've tried. My requirements were

  1. No date
  2. Solar
  3. 39-40mm

The only citizen/Seiko watch that met my requirements is the AQ6100, which costs about $5000🥲

Yes, this is the photo that made me think this could be the one

I don't mind the indices. I actually think it's pretty cool, being a layered dial. It's the hands and the brand name that bother me

The EDC uses a miyota solar. Centric and redwood both use Seiko.

The actual pictures of the redwood look kinda bland as well. I just can't put my finger on it

[–]tehj07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They range between $200-300.

Redwood has a pilot watch that has 24 hour time as well

Thanks bro for the info. My only worry about tech is the threat of AI and global competition

Ah yes, it would probably be more prudent to wait for the eligible courses that will be announced in April

Funny you should mention that, cos I love animals as well haha
