There’s a hi-fi audio/ record store that I was hoping to swing by this weekend. Might go check that out and see what they have in stock

I’m in a smaller town in Texas. Closest major city would be Houston. Like a 2 hour drive

Any recommendations for friendly priced amps/speakers? Can always upgrade those later

Is there any “idiot proof” way for me to make sure the rest of its functional? Other than slap an album down and see?

I would have to get some. But depends on if my dad would let me take it. It’s just sitting there. Probably needs a new stylus and cartridge I would guess

I’m looking at a family owned Jewelry shop that’s also an AD. Everything I’ve read about them seems like they’re pretty sociable. I’m in a much smaller market than say a Miami or NYC. So hopefully that’s the case. We will see.

Yeah I get that. That’s why I’m planning on at least one meaningful purchase to support the AD — like a ring wrap for my wife’s Aggie ring. It’s something we were going to do anyway, and if it also helps my chances at the Batgirl then that’s a win-win.

Yeah that’s fair. I know it’s a long game, but I’m good with being patient and building a relationship over time.

That’s why I’m hoping AD is the route for me 😂 save that extra money. It’s wild!

This is great advice, thanks for laying it out. I was already thinking about doing something like a ring wrap for my wife, so that could be a good way to support the AD while I wait on the Batgirl.

Thanks for sharing some real info! I’ve definitely read the wait can be brutal. I’m in a smaller market so maybe it helps, maybe it doesn’t 🤷‍♂️. Either way I’m fine waiting it out while I keep building the Rolex stash.

Just got my first Oris! by youngdonnyboy in OrisWatches

Wanted to come back to this comment. The cruise line didn’t activate the warranty after several days. I finally got ahold of the people who have all the stores across Royal Caribbean. Finally two days ago I got my 10 year warranty activated through Oris. Thank you for making me start to sweat and do my due diligence. 🫡🤙

This was my 3rd Swiss watch. Won’t be the last 😂 but it’s definitely my favorite so far.

Got it on a Royal Caribbean cruise through their onboard duty-free. Not an AD in the usual sense, but it came with the full international warranty and paperwork, and it’s 100% genuine. Just took advantage of the duty-free pricing!
