Hello everyone,

I'd really appreciate a second opinion on this QC. Overall I'm leaning towards a GL, but there are a couple of small details I'd like some experienced eyes on before making my final decision.

1. Dealer name: Necoclock

2. Factory name: VSF

3. Model name (& version number): Omega Aqua Terra 150M 41mm Green Dial (8900)

4. Price Paid: $348 + $35 shipping = $383 USD

5. Album Links: https://mega.nz/folder/i8IQiSLC#2_Ln3VtqwNIvD5ayxcnfZQ

6. Index alignment: Overall the indices look well aligned to me. Visually everything looks straight.

7. Dial Printing: The dial printing looks clean and sharp. No obvious defects that I can see.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: Overall it looks good, although the date appears ever so slightly left-biased in a few photos. It could simply be the camera angle, so I'd appreciate another opinion.

9. Hand Alignment: Looks good to me. No issues visible in the video.

10. Bezel: Looks clean with no visible scratches or finishing issues.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A

12. Timegrapher numbers:
    - Rate: 0 s/d
    - Amplitude: 244°
    - Beat Error: 0.0 ms

13. Anything else you notice: Overall I'm leaning GL, but I'd really appreciate another opinion. The only thing I'm still unsure about is the applied Omega logo. On some photos it looks perfectly fine, while on others it appears slightly different. It might simply be the lighting, reflections or camera angle, but I'd appreciate your thoughts on the logo, the date alignment, and anything else I may have missed.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to help. I really appreciate your input!

Hello everyone, this is my first Aqua Terra QC, so I’d really appreciate some experienced eyes on this. I understand it’s a replica and I’m not expecting perfection, but I’d like to know if there’s anything that would justify an RL.

1. Dealer name: Andiot

2. Factory name: VSF

3. Model name (& version number): Omega Aqua Terra 41mm Blue Dial

4. Price Paid: $300 + $41 transport = $341

5. Album Links: https://andiotwatches.x.yupoo.com/albums/244586675?uid=1

6. Index alignment: Overall looks good, but I have two minor concerns. The dial appears to be rotated ever so slightly clockwise, making the 12 and 6 o’clock markers look just a touch off the centerline. I also wonder if the applied Omega logo is very slightly tilted or offset, although this may simply be caused by the lighting and camera angle. I’d appreciate another opinion on this.

7. Dial Printing: The dial printing itself looks clean and sharp. I don’t see any obvious printing defects.

8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: The date appears well centered in the window and the printing looks good.
9. Hand Alignment: No issues noticed. The hands appear properly aligned.

10. Bezel: The polished bezel looks clean with no visible dents, scratches or machining issues. I don’t notice any uneven finishing.

11. Solid End Links (SELs): The SELs look tight on both sides. I don’t see any significant gaps between the end links and the case.

12. Timegrapher numbers: Excellent. -1 s/d, 265° amplitude, 0.2 ms beat error.

13. Anything else you notice: Case finishing, bracelet and clasp all look very good. The crystal and blue dial also look great. My only hesitation is the possible slight dial rotation and whether the applied Omega logo is actually aligned correctly or if it’s just an optical illusion from the photos. At the moment I’m leaning GL, but I’d appreciate some confirmation before making the final decision.
I also noticed there isn’t a weight measurement included in the QC album. Would you ask for one before giving a GL?

Thanks in advance for your time and opinions. I really appreciate it!

Hi everyone,

I'm 35 years old and looking for some honest advice.

Over the last few years my hairline has receded quite a bit, especially around the temples, and the front has become noticeably thinner. The confusing part is that I still seem to have a decent amount of hair overall, so I'm not sure whether I should keep styling it, buzz it, or just shave it off.

I've attached a few photos, including one where I'm pulling my hair back to show the hairline.

One thing that really bothers me is how uneven the density looks. I usually style my hair to the side, but because of the recession and thinning at the temples, one side tends to look very flat and sparse compared to the other side. In certain lighting it becomes quite noticeable and makes styling increasingly difficult.

I'm currently using minoxidil, but I'd mainly like advice on the haircut itself:

• Keep the current style?
• Try a different haircut?
• Buzz cut?
• Fully shaved?

I'm genuinely not sure where I stand. Some days I feel like I still have enough hair to make it work, and other days I feel like I'm just trying to hide a receding hairline.

I'd appreciate honest opinions. If you think I'd look better with a buzz cut or shaved head, feel free to say it. If you think there's a haircut that would suit my current situation better, I'd love to hear your suggestions.

Thanks!
PS; i can always provide more photo's if needed tho.
