Got this the other day. Seller said battery needs to be changed soon. So it might be older stock.

It says it is made in malaysia. module 1572.

What is odd..

Display has some structure/grain to it. Other pics I saw only show a flat display. it is perfectly readable though.

The illuminator works best when I look at it at an angle. Not straight down. Might be old battery?

It has a small "DC" print at the bottom under "Water Resist"

small gap in the P in start/stop print

two UI quirks:

Bell and alarm icon are reversed. Bell is the active alarm. The alarm symbol is active hourly chime.

When I press the illuminator for a few seconds it switches from 24h to PM and vice versa.

Display test and casio test work fine.

Beeps sound normal like other casios I have and had. Buttons are nice and a bit stiff like others describe.

Is it legit? It seems normal but has these weird quirks.

Just found this good looking vintage heavy woven duffel on the street, probably 80s/90s and clean and in perfect shape..navy blue and mustard yellow. I like it. Thanks universe. I am going on vacation in two days. Just what I needed.

I am positively surprised the blue isn't as bright as in the pics I saw online. Very pretty.

Got it as a replacement for a lost W59 but wanted a better backlight this time. I hope it will be waterproof enough for swimming.

Has a similar shape to the w59 with open lugs and same digits. it is not as rounded as the w59 case and the buttons are smaller diameter and a bit harder to press, which is a good thing. So far I really like it.

my daily is a B640 though, because I need countdown for work. this one is for the kid. got it for under 20 euros. very happy with this one.

This is a 3000k brass TS10. These are my fave lights ever. I have quite a few of different TS10. I picked this one up today after a few months and saw it was growing.

it partially looked like stuff you find in a sunken ship from ancient greece.

Didnt take a before pic. But it was impressed how oxidation eats the metal. It was green on some spots and growing. metal mold.

I dont mind scratches and patina. but it was a bit too much. and I did not mean to make it like new.

the last drop of a ketchup bottle cleaned it. ketchup is magic.

i dont really like brass though. it smells bad.

you could get the TS10 in 3000k only with brass and later in copper.

my fave ts10 is the alu in 4000k and amber aux, but any of the 3000k are beautiful as well. i like the amber backlight and I think the rgb aux in the v2 ruined it.

thanks for reading this.

bifold leather wallet, jet lighter, gerber dime on my keys, freshly sharpened bugout mini clone, cross tool and this super cool marble I found today.

u/fathom-avant wanted to see pics of the ulanzi pb008 after 2 years of actual wear and tear.

so here we go. just some shitty pics under my kitchen light.

We started in this thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ManyBaggers/comments/1rw62w8/

there is no tear at all after two+ years and scratches are barely visible. it got a bit more glossy if anything.

The youtubers they referred to used it for 2 weeks and feared it would collect dirt. Nope. This is the easiest to clean bag I ever had. it is awesome.

It is waterproof and I keep my dslr camera in it. But it also works nice as a daily sling.

It is a great bag.

Has the classic messenger bag look, but not a flap.

Waterproof? Yes. Waterproof enough to trust my dslr camera to that bag.

and the internals of this bag are awesome. the organization is brilliant and everything feels nice.

there are lots of video reviews that cover the insides.

it is astonishingly good for 35 to 50 euro. Price depending where you buy it.

So yeah. Great bag. most excellent. can absolutely recommend.

My timer is set to 6 minutes 30 seconds.

casio b640

I dont know what model it is. It is a Vaude bag. super lightweight and feels nice and soft and I love the lime green lining.

I fell in love with messenger bags again.

Messenger bag. No sweaty back.

Fits my laptop and A4 sized stuff. and has space for a hoody or groceries as well.

lightweight, but enough of padding and structure. i like that.

Organisation is a lightly padded laptop slot with velcro closure. 4 wide mesh pockets. two in main and two in the front pocket. very nice. and two horizontal slots for pens,. different sizes. Perfect.

it has a bottom pocket as well where I found a rain cover.

back pocket can double as luggage passthrough. it has a zipper at the bottom.

you can also make it sit tighter when bicycling. it comes with an extra strap for that.

The only two things I would add.. I always like inside mesh pockets on the sides, and a grab handle would be nice.

an excellent bag. very well designed.

Hatte sie vor ner ganzen Weile noch im Anzuchttopf nach der vierten Nodie getoppt.

Statt zwei neue Triebe oben zu machen ist da jetzt nen Blütenansatz und zwei sehr komisch aussehende Blätter, die super langsam wachsen. Rest der Pflanze sieht normal aus.

Sie hat nach dem umtopfen nen für eine Auto einen überraschenden Stretch hingelegt und ist jetzt etwa einen Meter hoch. Aber ganz oben passiert nicht viel, bzw dieses.

Die nächste Nodie ist locker 15 zentimeter tiefer und sie wächst absolut nicht buschig. sehr offen und gestreckt.

Ich überlege sie nochmal zu toppen, damit eine Etage weiter unten mehr passiert.

Oer könnte das am Ende was Gutes sein, wenn ich sie so lasse? ich hab mal was über "fimming" gelesen. hab ich das versehentlich gemacht?

Sorte ist eine Blueberry Automatic. Steht draussen im Topf mit Komposterde.

so these watches span 50 years.

Orient Time Computer from around 1976. This retailed for 400 bucks in the 70s. More than 3000 after inflation today. Got it in a thiftstore. keeps perfect time. super heavy and full stainless steel. original bracelet.

Skmei from last year. impressive for 10 bucks. And not a direct clone. it is a casio-timex.mashup and I like it. but as you can see, it is not as readable as the other oldies.

Casio W59. Had that as my first digital watch in 1989. 50m water resistant. took this everywhere in the 90s. replaced the strap when it broke and I could not fix it anymore. best watch ever.

Casio B640. shaped like an early 80s casio watch. My daily. it is even better than the w59. same 50m waterproof. has countdown and much better backlight and a metal strap. bestest watch ever.

Last is a real shitty fw91 clone I got for free. It instantly died when it saw water. but it came back to life. the beeps stopped working sometime after. it is the zombie watch.

So I found this old Orient digital watch in a thriftstore today. And bought it on a whim because I thought it looked cool.

quite chunky and heavy at 105 grams. It is full stainless steel and has a big slab of glass and only a few scratches and is probably older than I am.

Backside (pic2) says: Orient Quartz. All stainless steel. DS4006 or OS4006 or maybe 0S4006. nothing about waterproofing.

It showed the absolutely correct time, so I bought it.

but I have no clue how to operate or set it, or if it has other functions than showing the time. but is has four buttons in total. so it must be able to do something else, right?

Does somebody know when this was made and is there documentation online how to use it? I cannot make sense of anything that happens when I press the buttons. And I had a casio since 1989.

any help is appreciated.

Bought these Salamander boots a while ago. I just noticed one of the yellow salamander inlays came off.

Now somebody will find a little rubber salamander somewhere.

Salamanders are cool. I saw a fire salamander once. Beautiful animals. but a rare sight.

u/k34444 wanted to see this 5 minute project.

DIY Pocket clip/dangler for my Vic Farmer.

Take an old teaspoon, bend the end (I used a vice, or just use some pliers), press or hammer flat (maybe put something inbetween so it wont get too tight), drill hole, cut with a metal saw, smooth out cut with some sandpaper.

I made this about 12 years ago.

(photo taken today super quick with a sheet of printer paper, wurkkos ts10 for light and a pixel 6a. no editing and first and only pic.)
