Anyone with this model have a first hand review? In love with the dial but I’ve never had a dive watch, nor a poly band?

Just looking for pros and cons as a semi daily vs a bracelet .

Looking to get a nice piece for myself as a milestone gift. Been in love with the open heart designs and stumbled across this in my search. Any first hand reviews of why or why not?

The dial is just insane and ticks every box I’ve ever wanted really. Just looking for some assurance on overall build quality and movement. Thanks :)

Looking to pick up some Zipline string in Canada, any way to avoid the crazy shipping costs from the US from a third party site?

It’s going to cost something like 45 CAD to get 2x 3 packs from their website lol.

Anyone have similar string recommendations or ways to get these cheaper here? Thanks!

Happily rounded out the collection. Little something for most occasions.

Some fresh, some woody, sole strong, some sweet. Feeling really happy with the versatility here.

Looking for something with the longevity of Sauvage EDP but scent close to ADG Porfondo? Does it exist?

I’m looking for a really fresh marine like hot summer cologne. I love ADG Porfondo Parfum but I barely notice it after 4 or 5 hours.

Thanks!

Happy with my rotation after a recent pickup. Only thing I may look for is a light freshie in the future.

Got a screaming deal on a trade for this TF Black Orchid today, and can say I’ve rounded out my rotation for a good while.

Still savouring the last of my old formula Y le parfum :(

Missed the Backerkit of Fires of December, will there be any way to obtain one of the special edition covers? They are stunning.

Haven't been part of a BackerKit before, so I was unsure how the finished products were handled. Is there a chance they will be available as a premium hardcover on Dragonsteel after release? Or do I need to look into the secondary marketplace? Thanks :)

Just finished the first Mistborn trilogy, and I can honestly say that I didn’t know novels could be this well crafted. [Hero of Ages Spoilers Hidden]

So, as a young reader who stopped reading as many others have, only to pick it back in their late 20s, this trilogy has blown my mind and created an insatiable desire to consume more fiction.

When finishing the final page of HoA, all I could think about was how did we get here? >!This was a cool magic heist book with these cool magic powers and a fantastic characters that we get to watch take down the big bad guy to free their fellow enslaved people.!< >!Then, we culminate by merging with the cosmic entity of preservation to destroy the other cosmic entity of ruin, sacrificing our beloveds, and allowing the real hero of ages to rebuild the world through a balance of both aspects.!<

I have never felt emotional while reading, aside from the slight pang in the gut when a loved character dies…. But I was full on crying, tears and snot while finishing chapter 81 of HoA.

I know Sanderson isn’t for everyone, but this style of world building and pace, culminating in dozens of strings being pulled together into a masterpiece conclusion has be absolutely addicted to reading again and I couldn’t be more thankful for it.

I’m currently reading the secrets of Mistborn and then the eleventh metal before diving into war breaker and the stormlight archives.

Just needed to get this off my chest, and hopefully see if others have felt the same way?

Never having enough gold…. When to feed vs unlock areas?

Just started 4 days ago, but I constantly have dragons wanting food to max out but I also feel like I need to be expanding the map with my gold?

I got a legendary dragon that takes 900 food to level up and I don’t know what to prioritize :(

Today was our second trip with penis envy shrooms, my experience is still vastly different than my wife’s…. I would love to discuss here

So last month my wife and I did our first mushroom trip. We both took 3 grams of penis envy on a near empty stomach, most a light breakfast of fruit. We made sure our environment was perfect, in good spirits and mentally ready to experience whatever was coming.

She had the time of her life watching David Attenborough movies on Netflix while I was buried face down in our sofa exploring my brain prison for what felt like days. It was a complete out of body and mind experience, processing how lucky I was to have loved ones around me but also the lack of meaning behind anything in our world. How time really has no meaning aside from how we have applied it to our lives. I started counting my breaths because the only true way to tell that time is progressing into the future is that I have to breath every few seconds to stay alive so surely time must be progressing…. Ect

After processing that experience with a very experienced mushroom friend, we gave it another go today and I am still shocked at why my experience is so vastly different than my wife’s. She took the same 3 grams but I dropped back down to 1.5 grams.

Again, she loved every minute of the visual effects ect while watching nature documentaries, and meanwhile I am more conscious this time, but deeply introspectively disassociating for 3 hours until I snap back to reality out of nowhere.

This time around, I was not in my so called brain prison of existential dread, but felt only what I could describe as extreme depression as someone who has never mind experienced that in any way.

I was very disassociated still, but felt deeply emotional and negative about myself and the world around me while remaining somewhat conscious that I was still myself laying on my couch.

I think this will be my last trip, as 2 in a row has made for pretty miserable experiences even though I very much return to normal hours after. My wife is still hooked and I am happy for her and her experiences with these psychedelics.

I’m more curious here to learn more from anyone with similar experiences or stories :)
