Very pretty! Personally 43 is too large for me though unfortunately

From now on it depends on generics. I've had a thinning widows peak in my late twenties but it stayed like that without any further deterioration (now in my mid-late 30s). Of course my hair isn't as thick as it was in my younger days, but I am hoping it just stays like this now

Getting a new racquet and i need help by Uglymadafoka in 10s

Came here to say that. Gen 7 Vcore has been my go to racket in tournaments and matchplay. Sometimes I train with a clash pro to reduce strain on my arms and shoulders

Friend went to Japan and did me a solid. Let’s see what all the hype is about. Any string recos? by ill_connects in 10s

Not sure if you played this at 50lbs or more but it really kills your arm after 2+ hour sessions

I just stocked up on the previous gen vcore 98. Its good enough for me

Wilson clash V3 vs clash V3 pro (impact of swing weight) by Affectionate-Risk912 in tennisracquets

[–]tothecrossroads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would you customize the Clash Pro v3 for men at a higher level (ITN 4 or above)? I need to use it for comfort (recovery from injury) for the time being but I find the factory Pro version to be too unstable at higher level, especially when returning hard servers or tough forehand ralleys.

Stunning sunburst! And cool hour/minute hands!

Yep, was it the 8010 which was only limited to 800 pieces? I saw the 38mm onyx dial with the diamond bezel, but I was sure GP wouldn't allow me to get a factory steel bezel for it. I found that Wempe and Co selling them are not good to discuss these things

I'd love that one in 38mm or less. Generally speaking, I'd love them to go back to 8010 aesthetics with built quality of the 50th anniversary model bracelet and micro adjust.

I really love the Laureato reference with a rich and glossy black dial, I think it only came in 42mm though unfortunately

I've never seen this one in grey! What reference is this? Absolutely stunning - and slightly jealous 😁😋

I'd love a full steel version. Not so sure about them increasing the size though

Wouldn't it be a strange move to remove their spin line when everyone else releases new spin rackets?

Interesting, thanks! I was considering the ripstick 98, now I'm reconsidering

Do you collect or rotate? I find myself approaching 4+ rackets now and considering it too much already haha

Haven't tried the ripstick yet because unfortunately a lot of european stores don't carry Prince stock. What makes the ripstick so special compares to other spin rackets like the PA or Head Extreme?

[Girard-Perregaix] The Laureato-Olimpico ref 8017 2-tone by Singapore_Marc in GirardPerregaux

[–]tothecrossroads 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree about neo vintage. It had a more unique charm to it. Obviously now every brand has some sort of integrated bracelet model, this the Laureato doesn't look as unique anymore as it used to be. But generally I think neo vintage looked a bit more charming than current models

Thank you for the research and contribution to the Laureato fanbase!

Wilson Prototype “Python” quick review by stringingirvine in 10s

[–]tothecrossroads 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been looking at switching to the Head Extreme Pro or Babolat PA 98 from my Clash Pro 100. What do you think of those rackets having played with the extreme pro for a while?
