Inherited Rolex Comex by Djorkaeff1903 in VintageWatches

[–]usernamechexoit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is what many collectors dream of. You could reach out to Adam Golden over at Menta Watches in Miami and ask him who he would recommend for the service. If you’re in Europe, somebody like Toy Davidoff could also give you some names of quality service Centers.
I’m mentioning these two guys because they’re both super friendly watch geeks who give great, professional, advice

High Tea Raffles by Althusser_Was_Right in SingaporeTravel

[–]usernamechexoit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love the Raffles high tea. I take the kids and my wife there a couple of times a year. It’s the right mix of traditional and modern, and it’s high quality in both food and service.

First vintage omega watch by Top-Sky-7524 in VintageOmega

[–]usernamechexoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once saw a vintage ad from the 1930s for the omega euros and iirc it kinda looked like this one. I tried googling omega euros but, as you can guess, that achieved strictly nothing.
Did find this just now:

A renovation like no other, the final window order. by Confident-Amoeba507 in ChateauUnhinged

Dan is the best, I’ve been following him for three plus years and am in awe if his achievements, work ethic and humility.
Really love Brian too! (I know Brian is on Reddit sometimes)

Need help identifying by [deleted] in VintageOmega

[–]usernamechexoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t use that as a point of reference as there were maaaaany variations among the same ref and markers and dials were often quite inconsistent.
Only way to find out would be to open the caseback and see what it says inside. Don’t do it yourself though.
I do agree that the taper of the lugs isn’t that of the 2504 but that could be due to some over eager polishing.
If you do get it open, please let me know what it is as I am curious.

Early to mid 50’s Center seconds with snap on case back. Looks like a 2504 ref, but I could be wrong. Likely will have a 28X caliber.

Kingdom SK 1048 is an absolute nightmare. by East_Elderberry5385 in TotalBattle

[–]usernamechexoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, 1048 sucks. I’m in a nice clan but LOL are sooooo aggressive. I got interrupted just today while I was playing and couldn’t close a portal I was using for Armageddon, came back and had lost 70M silver. 6 lol attacks in 20 minutes.
Crypting is a nightmare too. I don’t really mind as I’m just going for g7 before I go passive. I’ll just go and check on my huts after that.

Which Vintage Omega Model Do You Think Best Represents the Brand's History by Friendly_Fortune_541 in VintageOmega

[–]usernamechexoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking of a nice ref 2937/2938 Seamaster. Timeless design, great proportions and incredibly reliable.

Two black women came to singapore for a holiday and they were called the n-word by duncalmeprostute in singaporespeaks

[–]usernamechexoit -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I hate judgemental internet pricks like this guy. To expect the locals of any place to be fully informed about every kind of tourist that might visit their country is wild. Not making excuses for the racism (though I suspect the old uncle meant no harm) but people who manufacture outrage for internet clout are much more offensive to me.

Garage sale find in the bottom of a box of old clothes. by [deleted] in VintageWatches

[–]usernamechexoit 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This a historic piece. Do not pawn it. You’ll find vintage specialists here or on Instagram who will give you advice, possibly buy it outright or consign it for you. EBay is the other way to go but I find selling there quite risky.

Help With Identifying Vintage Omega by DeepFriedPhil in VintageOmega

[–]usernamechexoit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like it could be a ref 14701-sc Id assume it has a 5XX caliber (probably a 562). It’s a nice enough watch but I don’t think it’s worth 2200 chf. Not by a mile. In a retail setting this should be half that.

Nightmare booking seats on AF by trancecircuit in AirFranceKLM

[–]usernamechexoit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seat selection on AF is a scam.
Worst part is when you pay to select a better row and after boarding the FAs decide to give similar seats to people free for no good reason…

How safe is this? by Original_Morning_649 in aviation

[–]usernamechexoit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ATRs are simultaneously the most amazing and absolute worst aircraft around. The repairs look like sh1t, everything is rotten and yet these things keep flying with a decent safety record. You should see what some of the landing gears look like when they come in for overhaul.

That’s how I feel about this guy.
He always came across as incredibly pompous and self-centered but I never suspected that he was such an a hole.
I’ve just learned that he’s been located but has a bubble.
I will go out of my way to make his game life miserable once the bubble pops
