  1. Hoping Rebecca takes this turn in S3
  2. Soon…. Wagyu ribeye with the cap separated and dry brining for dinner Friday.
  3. When I bought my GO I used an online AD. Specifically asked them to allow return since I was ordering without being able to see in person. They accommodated and offered a discount ~15% and didn’t charge sales tax. You can PM me if you’d like contact information.
  4. these are a bit expensive but really well done. I’m thinking about a custom one for my GO. Friend had one made for his IWC. https://www.abpconcept.paris/collections/bracelets-pour-montres-rolex-watch-bands-leather-straps
  5. I’m starting to think “Speak my truth” is Christian for “Hold my beer”
  6. @future man is going to get that fisting one way or another
  7. If you’re married I doubt you need to go to Belton to get the dead fish experience
  8. Looks like Richard Mille and they’re expensive AF. Also in my opinion ugly AF but that’s subjective. They’re objectively expensive AF.
  9. They’re a relatively young brand but a fully integrated manufacturer. https://www.bobswatches.com/rolex-blog/resources/history-parmigiani-fleurier.html The Origins Of Parmigiani Fleurier In the mid-1970s, smack in the middle of the Quartz Crisis, a young watchmaker named Michel Parmigiani opened a workshop to restore antique and vintage timepieces. His reputation quickly gained him an illustrious list of clients including Patek Philippe (who entrusted Michel Parmigiani to restore important pieces for its museum), Breguet, Vacheron Constantin, and others. Another one of Michel Parmigiani’s customers included the Sandoz Family Foundation (of Novartis Pharmaceuticals fame), founded by sculptor Edouard-Marcel Sandoz as an institution to promote Swiss entrepreneurship. The watch restorer was tasked to maintain the foundation’s large collection of clocks and automata. This encounter proved to be significant, as it was due to the Sandoz Family Foundation’s encouragement and investment dollars that paved the way for the birth of the Parmigiani Fleurier brand in 1996. Fleurier is a small town in Switzerland where the brand is headquartered.
  10. Looking for thoughts on the Parmagiani Tonda. Interested in an integrated bracelet but perhaps a bit off the beaten path. Other options might be the Alpine Eagle (like it but is a bit of a RO Nautilus mashup) or a Laureato (but I’ve got another GP and think I’d like to branch out). Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.
  11. Technically a pork chop but this thread has been dormant too long
