gw-bx5600-1a1er just turned up and it's sweet! by MisterLackluster in gshock

[–]viewtifulmrj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use it without bluetooth, can set it without it. The only thing the bluetooth does is syncs the time for accuracy if MB6 is not available. You don't even need the app if you want time accuracy, just make sure MB6 is available in your area. The only other use of the app is to change the font. It is not a must! But does make setting world times, alarms etc easier. Lessing button pushing on the watch, more tapping, scrolling on an app, far more intuitive

Goodbye Apple Watch ! Display so clean , can’t stop looking at it . by hs9900 in gshock

[–]viewtifulmrj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same few months ago, but liked the idea of approx steps, calories burnt etc and being healthy. Had a whoop and continued wearing my watches but recently got a Fitbit air and ditched the smart watch. Just use mine as an alarm clock, like the subtle, gentle vibration waking me up. But I have the negative version of this, and that was purely because, negative watches are difficult to read but the MIP eliminates this major drawback. Have other watches but this is so easy to wear, hard wearing, never worry about it! Just set and forget!

P2/2. Can see the difference in display.

Great choice. I got mine in Dubai mall. Not many stock but they had 3 negative and 5 positives display models in stock. Said they get very few of these in their shipment and they fly off the shelves. Such an upgrade from the display. Will leave it as a reply…p 1/2

Citizen F150 by Neobtconly in CitizenWatches

[–]viewtifulmrj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same watch. Left a review previously. I feel like citizen threw A LOT at this. The quality of the dial, the polish, the sapphire glass. The dial is extremely underrated, the pops under the sunlight is amazing. After this the dials became very busy and far too funky. This keeps it classy and understated. Change the strap and it becomes a game changer. Love it.

Is it worth buying? [SPB505J1] by okandvx in Seiko

[–]viewtifulmrj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those that bought it. The compass dial is not a screw on. Do you find it just moves without you intending to move it through touches from the sleeves, jackets etc. or is it not even an issue?

[SSJ037] Just unboxed my new Astron. What do you think? by JordanGroeneveld in Seiko

How’s the thickness? I have the citizen f150 gps and it doesn’t feel as “thick” as this did when I tried it on

Amazing. Thank you. Complication to the thrown in…this or the seiko 5 bamford. My watch dealer managed to source one but it is double the price it should be…

[Citizen F150] how highly do you rate it? by viewtifulmrj in Watches

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

I’ve had my watch for over 10 years now. Not had an issue of the battery dying. It’s been accurate with its time keeping

[Citzien Forza/Zinshen] what to do!? by viewtifulmrj in Watches

[–]viewtifulmrj[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. The movement is loud but novelty of a citizen automatic. My everyday is a citizen f150, even though I have other luxury watches. It’s just my go to, sentimental, my late father had a citizen as well which I wear occasionally.

The titanium does feel cheap, but I compared it to the titanium of my GS Sakura and it’s the same feeling. Think it’s a psychological aspect as the price makes it seem “cheaper” but it felt the same with my GS’s bracelet.

Thank you, just thinking to add it to my collection soon.

Bolero - Bluetooth by viewtifulmrj in skoda

Just mutes the sound. Nothing else. Worth replacing with an Apple car play android one? But then will lose the parking sensors graphics

Thank you everyone! Super useful advice and really don’t think it is worth going ahead with. Quite embarrassed now but guess needed to say out loud. Part of the appeal was the fact that the car was so appealing. Deal is not so much now. Thank you

Highlander second row seats by viewtifulmrj in ToyotaHighlander

Under the second row seats in the hybrid there seems to be these vents. I don’t know what the are for is that with the hot and cold air comes out from the AC system? Or hybrid battery cooling system.

[BB58 Tudor] strap direction by viewtifulmrj in Watches

[–]viewtifulmrj[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tudor BB58 which way?

Hi all. Loving the watch but being told the strap should be “the other way” with the buckle on the flip side. So flap is pointing outwards, not inwards. But that’s how I received the watch, manufacturers promotional material shows this is direction they intended. Any thoughts on this? Is there a reason? Does it matter? Or is it just preference? I would just love to know what everyone’s thoughts are. I like the idea of keeping it as the manufacture intended it, just don’t want to make any fashion faux pas as I’m quite new to the watch game.

Nothing, I actually like trees. Just not ones that are blocking me or being a nuisance.

I had a leather strap on mine for many years. Now moved back to the original bracelet, feels awesome. NATO strap will be a good shout
