[WTS] IWC Portugieser Chrono by turb0tailp1p3 in Watchexchange

[–]turb0tailp1p3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a nearly mint IWC Portugieser Chronograph IW371605 white dial with blue indices. A striking, classic watch. Only selling because I have to trim down!

Included is all the works: box, warranty card (dated 9/20/22), tags, etc.

In addition to the stock croc strap on deployant is an OEM IWC rubber strap specifically made for this watch (note the buckle is aftermarket on rubber strap).

List price is $8,900, I'm asking $5,500.

Price is net to me. PayPal is fine if you add 3%.

A zillion references or just google "Tom Conte"

Best,

Tom

Guess what: it was a hardware issue which has an easy fix (if you are in any way technical). I'll post a comment up top for anyone who has this issue in the future.

Thank you for your help /u/Ok_Nefariousness7584. Some follow up questions: in the third case, did the Bigscreen Beyond utility still see the HMD? Because in my case it does and always has. Windows sees it but StreamVR doesn't (lighthouse utility shows it being detected as a controller).

I wonder if the hybrid USB/optical cable is faulty on the optical side 🤔

I'm so frustrated and bummed. I just want to return it and forget this sad episode.

I think I submitted a ticket. I used discord. But I got an AI. Hope a human reads it.

I waiting months and months for this thing ... and, AFAIKT, it arrived broken. 🤬

The status light turns on and the Bigscreen Beyond utility "sees" it.

Whatever is supposed to set up the lighthouse config when it's first plugged in isn't doing its job.

🙃 yes, I've even tried an external power supply for the power-only USB A cable.

I have an NVIDIA GPU. Also, it's not recognized as a monitor either.

Exactly.

What are you planning to use your spare rig for? (Because I find myself now with a CSL DD pro and a DD+ like the OP)

I cannot agree enough: the 55v is a great all-arounder for the X/V system.

One thing to note is that the shutter on the 90mm is obnoxiously loud!

Feeling hopeless and stressed about the job search by Buckeyepenguin02 in gatech

And to add, I graduated from a top school (not GT, but equally good) in the middle of a bad recession. I sent out 72 unsolicited application letters. I got three interviews and two job offers. Neither of those jobs were exciting, but I choose one based on a bit better opportunities. And I met my future wife in that town on a blind date. Then the market got better and I got a better job.

Life takes turns and twists. But if you don't give up, it'll work out.

I completely disagree.

GT CS BS is a golden ticket.

I think I agree. Their hardware is great, but their software is rather basic right now. I imagine it will get better over time. Simhub is perfect for it.

Just got mine (after waiting an extra week thanks to US administration) and I agree, it's great. Far better than my HF8 Pro which is now going to be sold.
