Help me find a distance/daily/easy Shoe to compliment the Adidas Evo SL

Love my Adidas EVO SL but find they're a bit unstable for long runs, i use them for everything currently with the Pro 4 for events. Ideally I'd find something a bit slower and more cushioned and stable than the EVO SL. I use a Sz9 in the Adidas EVO SL.

In came the Vomero Plus, in a size 8.5 fit is great but they're heavy, I enjoy the softness but I've developed some quad pain when using them. I also have developed a bit of pain in the arch of my foot behind the big toe joint. My easy runs are around 8:00min/mile to 8:15 pace.

I've considered Asics Superblast 3 or Adidas Hyperboost Edge (upper review puts me off). What will i find between the Vomero and the Superblast 3? Would you consider the Adidas Hyperboost Edge?

Those who use an EVO SL what did you chose for a distance shoe to compliment this awesome shoe?

Ladies vintage DJ advice needed

So my mother has received this from my grandmother. She took it to a local jeweller who declares himself a specialist in used Rolex, buys and sells and services. A high street independent in the UK.

We have original paperwork from 1981 Inc serial and warranty card. It’s only ever been owned by her.

He tells us the bracelet is fake and it’s been welded on, that he also can’t adjust strap and needs cut and to never take it to Rolex as they’ll condemn watch and keep it.

If he removes bracelet it will destroy the serial number on it and deem it worthless.

He offered to remove it by burning off the welds, place a leather strap on it and he will keep the bracelet for scrap gold.

Is he talking nonsense? Can anyone help us here? Is bracelet resizeable, are the lug fittings period correct? What model is this as he told us 1960s which doesn’t fit with the Rolex card from our official AD which is still operating in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Worried

Inheritance and I love it #18038 #president #day-date

Working on my watch photography after getting my new to me 18038 sized. I contemplated trading it for a steel sports watch, sub/yachtmaster/gmtm2 or a steel Daytona but after wearing this for a few days I’m in love. RIP Grandad
