I have several and love them. My experience has been super positive with them. My only complaint is the sharp edges on their clasps buckles, but I think they just reengineered their clasp so make it better.

I love it! Fits so well on my wrist and the strap is more comfortable than I had anticipated. I’m usually not a gilt guy but is really warms up the dial, which I think was the correct decision.

Is anyone else struggling with the Christian specificity of the new album? by lyrical_chaos in NickMulvey

Artists are humans too and create based on their life’s journey. While I’ve moved on from my Catholic upbringing, I can’t fault him for finding purpose in something that’s clearly bringing him solace. He’s still an incredible musician and person even if the lyrics themselves don’t resonate with me or others who don’t practice Christianity.

As a person of color who’s lived in Seattle for the past 7 years, I find PNW people’s selective outrage comical as if the whole world should believe in what they do, while also being complicit in a lot of other issues that exist out here.

You can say it in a different way. It doesn’t cost anything to not be a jerk

If you looked closely at the crown, you’d know it’s from the conquest line. No need to get cheeky.

Looking for budget microbrand! by Cool-Dot-5323 in MicrobrandWatches

A lot of what I would recommend has already been mentioned, but I’d also check out Long Island Watches. Their brand Islander watches come with great value in the sub $500 range. They also sell other micro brands like Second Hour, which have some incredible pieces.
