    The Watch Appreciation Thread - Part two (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger LeCoultre,

    Red, white and blue palette seems fitting for primary day here in NY. It has been a great first three months of owning this 1675. I have found it to be exceptionally versatile. Edit: sorry guys, dont know how to resize the image so I have put spoiler tags around it.

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    This would be far more helpful if you suggested lighting that you actually liked vs panning my ideas.

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    I am going to purchase a suspension light for above my dining room table. The table is wood and fairly nondescript. At some point I will get rid of it but it wont be until I move apartments and can get something bigger. Current table is 60 x 36. Here are some ideas that I am toying with...

    The State of Black Tie: Your Observations

    Last weekend, a rare opportunity to wear black tie - a "Midnight in Paris" themed birthday party. I guess i stretched the theme a bit as I was the only one who showed up in formal wear but I had no problem with that. I had this tuxedo made by Chan about 8 years ago. My weight has yo-yo'd quite a...

    That Lange is too "top heavy" for me. I need something on the bottom half of the dial to balance out the high logo - either a seconds dial or some text.

    The Watch Appreciation Thread (Reviews and Photos of Men's Timepieces by Rolex, Patek Philippe, Brei

     The new (old) watch is a GMT 1675 from the late 60s. I have been lusting after this watch for a number of years, certainly in part because of all the pictures I saw in this thread. About 9 months ago, I came upon an intriguing example of a 1675 on Instagram via analog/shift. After a number...

    Finally pulled the trigger on a watch I had been eying for years. Will post pictures over the weekend. It is pre-1970.

    The Official Wine Thread

    I am hosting a gathering at my apartment where I will be pairing classical music and wine. I am looking for a red burg (will be paired with the Beethoven triple concerto) and a white burg (for the Academic Festival). Looking to spend about $50 per bottle and wine needs to be ready to drink...

    Unfunded Liabilities: a/k/a The Cloth Thread

    I have the navy with red windowpane made up from NSM and the brown with blue windowpane from Ercoles. I highly recommend both. I think they are the right balance of subtlety vs assertiveness which is hard to find in windowpanes.

    Congrats on the Explorer II. I find it much more attractive on a strap / nato than the bracelet. Does anyone else share that view? Can't really explain why.

    Random health and exercise thoughts

    I have now been running novice Sheiko for a couple of weeks. A few observations: - the upper body work has been easy. The lower body work has been moderately challening, particularly the box squats. I have spent far more time training upper than lower historically so this is to be expected -...

    I will stick with it and see how it goes.

    Random health and exercise thoughts

    Started novice Sheiko today. I expected it to crush me but it really wasn't that bad. I actually breezed through it in about 45 minutes. I am guessing this means: 1. I went too light on the weights. My understanding is that weight is generally supposed to be 60% of 1RM. I was probably a little...

    Random health and exercise thoughts

     Thanks everyone for the feedback. I probably should have clarified that some weeks I will make it to the gym more than four days a week and therefore end up with an extra chest day or extra shoulder day. Based on what I am hearing that still doesnt address the issue. I will look into some...

    Random health and exercise thoughts

    Thanks for all the help. Below is what I have been running, it probably most closely resembles starting strength big but boring. Day 1 - Bench - 3 x 5 paused bench - 3 x 15 touch and go bench (at 60% of paused bench lbs) - 3 x 15 close grip bench - 3 x 15 decline bench - 3 x 10 cable pec fly -...
