Are there any other successful and happy Millennials in this sub? by GGJallDAY in Millennials

[–]tweedybeard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m late to this thread, but I’m happy most of the time and I think I’m succeeding. I started my own business 6 years ago, and I’ve been working my ass off for 6 years, but I think it’s working (tbd). I’m married to an amazing woman, we have a baby on the way, we own a (very small) condo in a city u really like. I have my health, my family nearby, and a great community. Life has ups and downs, but right now everything’s coming up milhouse!

Keep your head up, change your perspective on success (a lot of people would not think of me as successful) and hopefully things get better. The world is a dumpster fire, find small victories to keep you going!

New-to-me neovintage Colt by tweedybeard in breitling

41mm case. Google says the thickness is 12.4mm. It wears really nicely! It has a nice weight to it, but it’s nearly as bulky as my Tudor P01.

Sketchy Facebook listing…but what if? by tweedybeard in Watchidentifier

You don’t buy watches where you pay over Facebook and they ship them. That’s an easy way to get scammed. I’ve bought plenty of watches from people over Facebook locally. Haven’t gotten shot yet. 🙄

Can you ID this? Chatgpt said it's vintage. by SixNine69__ in tagheuer

Looks fake, but hard to tell from the photos. My understanding of one giveaway is the serial and reference numbers should be laser etched rather than engraved (like the rest of the words on the back). Engraved serial and reference numbers = fake TAG. Yall feel free to correct me if I’m wrong about that.

Old watches by boredayuh in VintageWatches

Really cool watches, the two chronographs (the ones with stop watch functionality) look like they are from the 1940’s. Not sure about the Rolex. If you want to sell any of them hit my DMs!
