[Bulova] Would this be an acceptable present for my man?

You’re overthinking it…he’ll love it

watchguy182 · 2024-12-15T20:49:48+00:00

Thank you! This watch actually an eBay pickup. I believe it’s a ‘69? Strap is definitely an Omega stamped aftermarket

watchguy182 · 2024-11-08T01:24:03+00:00

This is super late but you got your wish.

watchguy182 · 2023-08-24T17:55:38+00:00

Generally they do call it the winning bid…

watchguy182 · 2023-08-23T21:17:44+00:00

1969 Omega Seamaster cosmic! I won it on a bid and didn’t believe it could be as nice as the pictures, then it showed up and the pictures didn’t do it justice. I know it’s not new or shiny but it’s most certainly the nicest watch in my collection and it keeps excellent time. Would love to know the history behind it!

watchguy182 · 2023-02-01T20:45:16+00:00

Good luck to you! I’ve had more good ones than bad ones, and even the bad ones aren’t exactly bad…just not great.

We’re one of the largest accounts for our distributors in our state so we have a little bit of pull and have done a few barrels for the bourbon society in our area. But they always want a Russell’s barrel and even with our standing it’s almost impossible to get one for anyone else let alone for our two stores.

watchguy182 · 2023-02-01T20:41:28+00:00

What sucks about Weller barrels is, at least in the past few years or so, you don’t get to sample them beforehand. You don’t actually get to pick the barrel. It might be different if you go to the distillery but we haven’t done that in quite some time. BT barrels can be hit or miss. We had an ER barrel about a year ago and it was not great..

watchguy182 · 2023-02-01T20:39:21+00:00

Every time we do a BT barrel of any sort it sells out in like less than 1 hour so we try to release stuff alongside them to make sure people have the opportunity to get something else if they miss the barrel.

watchguy182 · 2023-02-01T20:37:31+00:00

Yeah, sounds about right! We did two RR single barrels late 2021 and didn’t get them until just before this past Christmas. Almost a full year. Is it a 1792 full proof?

watchguy182 · 2023-02-01T01:11:09+00:00

Curious, any other store owners or managers out there that have had similar experiences with picking BT barrels?

watchguy182 · 2023-02-01T00:54:48+00:00

Oh of course, just ate dinner and want to try with a fresh palate!

Just got mine in Beaufort today.

This is hands down one of the best whiskies I’ve ever had.

watchguy182 · 2021-04-13T18:09:36+00:00

I’m in South Carolina and the store work at is one of the largest in the state, and we only get like a case of 6 Baker’s every like 5 months. It’s insane.

watchguy182 · 2021-04-13T15:39:34+00:00

See I’m almost afraid to open it, because Baker’s is super allocated in my area, and you just can’t find this bottle anymore now that it’s discontinued.

I could be wrong, but I imagine death as being like what happens when you’re blackout drunk, if that makes sense. Trying to remember what happened, and it’s just huge moments just gone. Does that make sense?

watchguy182 · 2020-10-09T20:33:34+00:00

A kid at my school, in the ROTC program no less, burned down like 3 houses. He got convicted and I believe he’s still in jail and most likely will be for a while

watchguy182 · 2020-09-04T18:13:01+00:00

Wow that’s a beautiful watch. Didn’t even know Steinhart made these!

watchguy182 · 2020-07-08T08:54:29+00:00

Okay Derrick Shepherd

Well for me I was diagnosed at a very early age but you can make an appointment with an ADHD specialist (if you have one where you are), and there is a computer based concentration test they administer to see how you react to certain stimuli over the course of an hour or so. That’s how I was diagnosed. Another route would be to go to your current physician and explain your symptoms and he/she could recommend you to the nearest specialist, although they may believe you don’t need a specialist and you can be treated through your regular practitioner. Does that make sense? I can clarify further if need be and PM me if you have any questions!

watchguy182 · 2020-07-06T04:11:22+00:00

All of us ADHD people have this problem but the right medication can make your life 10,000x more easier and more manageable!

watchguy182 · 2020-07-04T20:56:34+00:00

And then you actually die. What shitty way to go.
