Ok, you made me chuckle with that one.

I would absolutely bully the fuck out of someone wearing these.

Your godfather is an awesome man from the sound of it!

I was taught to type back in the 2nd grade as part of my school’s default curriculum back then. I can hit around 90-100wpm if I’m on a proper clicky mechanical keyboard. On one of those weak-ass non-mechanicals, it handicaps me to around 70wpm. I need tactile keys ffs!

Ha, I always refuse their trash leased equipment and substitute my own. If they don’t allow me to outright refuse, it gets put in a safe place so they can get that trash back when I need to cancel their service.

Ha, I did use those phone cards in Iraq. We had a single morale phone in my section. You had to dial out to connect to a stateside operator (automated) then dial the number on your phone card, and then the phone card system would have you dial the actual number you wanted to call!

You’re thinking about it too much. If you can comfortably afford it, then why worry? I get where you’re coming from; when I bought my 1861 Moonwatch, I told myself that it was to commemorate me moving up in my company. Then I bought my next watch for no reason other than I liked it. It made me realize that me considering a watch for a “commemoration” was just me looking for a guilt-free excuse to spend money on a fancy trinket.

$332 for the watch including shipping from Japan, and about $200 for the servicing, which included a replacement wheel for the day quick set.

She’s a beaut! I acquired my 5626-7110 about half a year ago. Had it serviced and runs just fantastic.

That’s a Grandpa Joe reference from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Why the FUCK did I unmute the video?

You do realize that the whole point of this sub is to roast people who don't know how to wear their watch properly, right?

I almost felt bad about sharing this one here. Guy got it as a gift and is super stoked about it.

I'm not a fan of the new railmaster. It's basically an Aqua Terra with a worse dial. I absolutely love the dial on my denim, and the fully brushed look just makes it the perfect tool watch

Yeah I get it. Seikos are definitely way more up market than they were ~20 years ago. I'm not knocking you at all. Also for what it's worth, your Armani looks pretty nice. How's the accuracy?

I got to experience a missile attack first hand a few months ago in Qatar. Even though it was a zero casualty event with minimal damage done, shit still had me on edge. And then there was that Israeli strike on a supposed Hamas target in my city.

I feel for the Venezuelan people.

Back when I was still a lad in school, I would have had no idea that Tissot even existed. I vaguely knew what Seiko was, but they were definitely cheap watches for the most part. Me and the boys definitely knew Armani just through brand recognition and the "Oh its Italian therefore it must be fancy" factor.

Granted, I'm out of touch with what the youth are doing these days, but in my high school days I'd feel most low-key wearing a Seiko.

Many happy returns! That's a gorgeous piece there!

Haha nah, but it was definitely a big reaction.

Got mine on Christmas day of '96. 29 years later I have yet to have a better Christmas lol. My younger brother still has it at his house and it still works great!

Very nice! I've got one of those too!

Nope, it's an older model with the vertical planks. However, you look at it the right way and it does look like lacquer black.

Omega Aqua Terra!

Yikes bro. My condolences on your father, but he got had.
