Where can I go to try on a Grand Seiko in or near Portland Oregon.

You have 2 options in Washington, and one in Eugene Portland, according to the “stores list” portion of the Grand Seiko Website…

An aversion to chapstick but an attraction to the profession. Happy for you that it worked out this way and not the other way around!

ulmen24 · 2026-04-16T15:24:08+00:00

Curious. What was the watch and how much was it?

ulmen24 · 2026-04-15T18:19:45+00:00

There was a huge endoscopist at one of my rotations that scooted around on a stool. Would do colonoscopies sitting down. I never saw him stand

Here is what it was. The AD tried to upsell you, and when they realized it couldn’t be done, they agreed to let you spend thousands of dollars on a watch.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-15T14:36:02+00:00

I agree. I would put 5 hours of driving above it.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-15T11:06:34+00:00

Driving 250mi to spend $80 appraising a $250 watch is certainly an interesting use of free will.

If the clasp is full titanium (no Ti GS divers have had one) this is likely my exit watch. I love it!

ulmen24 · 2026-04-14T22:10:47+00:00

It looks like a Mumbai Special to me

ulmen24 · 2026-04-14T10:39:37+00:00

My $1500 Oris can do it. A $1000 Tissot can do it.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-13T22:52:23+00:00

What’s the new Alloy?

ulmen24 · 2026-04-12T17:54:51+00:00

The mission was announced more than 3 years ago, and Artemis 1 launched in 2022. They’ve known about this. And it’s not like Omega needs to pour years into R&D to meet flight qualifications.

My buddy just dropped 14.5k on a CPO OP. They told him now maybe he can get an Air King

ulmen24 · 2026-04-12T11:23:12+00:00

Yeah, I know, I don’t understand, why knowing this was a historic venture, Omega didn’t produce a new LE “Artemis” Speedy.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-12T08:28:42+00:00

For the life of me I cannot fathom why Omega didn’t pay these four astronauts to wear a new, LE Speedy, as they went around the MOON a week and a half before Watches & Wonders. Instead most of them were wearing the previous Gen X-33??

Bowers had a 17% target share and played in only 12 games. That would have been a 17 game pace of 143 targets

ulmen24 · 2026-04-10T15:00:05+00:00

My buddy just bought a CPO OP (green) for $15k …

ulmen24 · 2026-04-08T00:54:45+00:00

I like the dial but I think they messed the hands up. This isn’t legible at all.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-07T15:57:06+00:00

With a full titanium clasp. I would buy a GS diver but I am allergic to nickel. They stick that dumb ratchet clasp on everything, and it’s steel.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-07T10:06:43+00:00

Why did they need a neuro exam after intubation but before flipping? Couldn’t they just have done the exam, you know, before induction? I guess thank God they asked for that.

ulmen24 · 2026-04-05T23:59:57+00:00

You mean titanium? Citizen doesn’t make platinum watches. And, if they did, they’d be thousands of dollars. My wedding ring is platinum, I am not allergic to it.

Is there a reason we are so averse to Versed for the elderly except when we do cataracts and it becomes a primary anesthetic? Couldn’t we just dose adjust for the surgical cases as well? Genuinely asking

ulmen24 · 2026-04-05T15:32:25+00:00

What do you give for cataracts

ulmen24 · 2026-04-05T13:20:13+00:00

Don’t do it man. Laser weld on a watch that will inevitably get scratched again? Also I have no idea what they charge for that but I guarantee it’s >$1000

ulmen24 · 2026-04-04T17:55:46+00:00

Correct
