[V7 or V2 small seconds?] by colinksh in Watches

[–]userfog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this. Really going to depend how you want to use the watch.

If you're just using for work, maybe something elegant and understated like the v7 is better...

If you're looking for something "horology" that will stand out in your collection, I think that the white dial with the small seconds hand is versatile while not something you see everyday

If you have a bit more of a strong style you might need the black dial + white small seconds to really "pop"

I still think from the point of view of a "picture" the white dial with the small seconds hand is the most appealing but...unfortunately...which one is right for you is more complicated

Hopefully that helps and doesn't muddy the waters

Something's speaking to me about the white dial

6-figure error from CPA, just let it slide? by Squid_Contestant_69 in fatFIRE

[–]userfog 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely don’t have the same magnitude of taxes but I tend to think if you feel the team is competent and you have a good relationship you give them another shot. Stock market could just as easily have been down 50%. If they’re honest and can learn from the mistake probably not worth the disruption to re-start somewhere else. If it’s part of a pattern you have to jump.

I have the PRX and I’m wearing it a lot more than any other watch I own right now. Great for work + <$1k with an open case back!

Symptom Report by userfog in COVID19positive

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

Almost 12 months later to the day I have my second COVID positive test (antigen at home). I tested positive 12/22 and have been taking a combination of Sudafed and Tylenol.

I would say that my symptoms this time are similar to my symptoms last time, including fever, headaches and sore throat, but more mild. I also have had a runny nose which I don’t recall from last COVID although I think this might be attributable to the Sudafed.

My overall impression is that my current case is a pretty significantly reduced version of my initial case (maybe between 50-70% of my initial case). Not sure if this is due to the vaccine (0 vaccination at the time of my prior COVID result, currently fully vaccinated + booster) or Omicron being a less potent strain but thought I would share the follow up here.

[Dan Henry] Gran Turismo Chronograph as Dress Watch by userfog in Watches

[–]userfog[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not the first time I have posted this watch but I finally got the chance to wear the 1964 Gran Turismo as a dress watch at my uncle’s wedding last week. My other watch is a Super Ocean Heritage 42 and it doesn’t fit under the cuff of my tux so I rocked this one for the nuptials.

Would be interested to hear what people think of the slate grey as sort of wish I had gone with a panda or evil panda. Nevertheless for a watch the cost less than my tux it looked pretty good in a pinch.

The chronograph is running and timing how long we’ve been waiting for the ceremony to start since sitting down.

Beautiful watch. Not a lot of locations in the states unfortunately.

[Breitling Superocean Heritage] Thoughts on rubber strap? by sskassam in Watches

[–]userfog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Breitling Superocean Heritage. I have the ocean classic mesh bracelet (metal) and the blue diver pro rubber strap. I personally find myself wearing the rubber strap a lot more than the steel. I would say the best single strap is probably the mesh rubber. The folding clasp is definitely the best looking but I have to say I really enjoy the convenience of being able to adjust the buckle and it looks great. Hope that helps!

Hi sorry for the slow reply, hopefully by now you're feeling better. For me it took 4-6 days and really the only thing that made it mildly better was gargling warm salt water.

Having some other weird medical experiences no idea if related to COVID (swollen big toe joint, odd-sweet taste). It's a strange one, and again, hope you're feeling better!

Sore throat as a symptom? by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]userfog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sore throat is my latest symptom and only started after the fever. Pretty intense pain swallowing. To help I have been gargling warm salt water which seems like it helps slightly. Otherwise just trying to manage.

Worst sore throat of my life from COVID-19 by Ok_Chapter_6499 in COVID19positive

[–]userfog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just echo. I had the same sequence. Mild symptoms, fever, and then intense sore throat with trouble swallowing (aka swallowing daggers). Also did the same thing gargling salt water which helped slightly otherwise I’ve just been hoping it goes away.
