vacuum tubes!
worth their weight in gold!
there was a time, they were reasonably priced... back when transistors were still young... the 60s and 70s...
some aficionadoes today swear the sound of de-tubo is something solid states can't copy...

Fascinating to watch the glowing tubes doc.

Vinyl is something you will enjoy hunting around for discounts.

For the veteran Seiko watch owners here, do you mod your watches like replacing the straps with hybrid leather+rubber types or getting a new bezel?

All my seikos are still on steelies. But I've once opened up a case of a Seiko 5 and removed the movement to clean the inner side of the crystal.

I’ve replaced the straps of 2 of my g-shocks though. I slapped on a NATO strap on my gw 3000 and a parachute strap on my riseman. I had to buy strap adapters for those from Indonesia pa. Walang gumagawa via 3d printer sa atin apparently.

dad left us an SX-990, but its knobs are all frozen from non-use. it comes with a pair of 12 inch woofers, midranges, and tweeters of olde.
perhaps it's time to resurrect the thing.
anyone recommend a shop or person?

The Cadisen C8212M is a mechanical chronograph that won’t break the bank | VISOR.PH

In chrono mode, the Cadisen can measure up to 30 minutes, with the three-o’clock subdial displaying the elapsed minutes. The nine-o’clock sundial displays the running seconds in standard timekeeping mode. The watch retails for around P8,750 in online shops such as Lazada and Shopee.

This beautiful timepiece is with me for the last 3 months and I love it.

Attachment 44243

Last month, I acquired these 2 beautiful white dial timepieces for my wife and a daughter's graduation gift, a Rado Captain Cook 37mm with 80hrs PR and a Tissot Seastar 1000 36mm Swiss Quartz.

But prior to that, I'm already looking for a beater/everyday watch. Hamilton is popular of their Khaki Field watches, it has the Heritage back in WWI and WWII military watches. So after 2 weeks, I went back to my AD and acquired this Khaki Field Mechanical black PVD watch . I was adamant last time because it's mechanical, but as they said, it's good to have connection to your watches. I love handwinding (5-7 rotations) it 2x a day. It's now my most worn watch.

how's that compared to the new Longines Zulu 39mm GMT watch?
Edited: by the way, could you take that red band out? it's unclassy just wear it to your right wrist if you can't resist.

Have not tried the zulu but I think this will wear big and tall.

HAHAHA! I wear it on my bad days or weeks here at work, some kind of pang paswerte lang naman. But when I go out, watch only, no other accessories haha!

Is this the one? I find having the numbers on the dial and on the bezel a bit too much. Would have preferred to just have dagger indices over Arabic. To each his own. But it does feel good on the wrist.

that's it. I haven't seen one yet personally, on their website I'm leaning towards the green bezel, goldish markers, and on a brown leather strap.

Saw this last year at SM aura. Forgot which store. Around November. That's when I also saw the Presage Sharp Edge GMT. Would've gone with the Seiko but I found the strap width too narrow for the case size. Didn't end up with either. Lol.

Tudor BB's are selling under SRP these days, but I think GMT's are still at a premium. Lovely watch, I have to say, and less common than a Pepsi.

The bracelet is smaller than 20mm I think.

This Grand Seiko GMT SBGM221 [dressy watch] has a good review also.

It's 20mm but the case is 42 so for me a bit off. Had it been a 39/40 with 20 lug, it would be perfect. That GS is beautiful
