btw fancy tokyo eyewear store and acclaimed 'hand-made in japan' glasses brand replaced my damaged frames and refitted my lenses, no questions asked, at no additional cost. i'm actually pretty impressed, considering the frames are worth about a solid month's rent here in japan.

I would suggest keeping them in a climate controlled box and only putting them on for instagram purposes

no facewipes or facial products, from here on out.

a typhoon arrived right on cue today, auguring the start of autumn, so hopefully an era without copious sweat will be kinder to the replacement glasses.

dress sneakers are a lamentable development and one of the surface features of a sick society. it's like, i dunno, dress crocs. wear a comfy sneaker or a comfy dress shoe. slacks casual? just grab your nb, or some hiking shoes if you're feeling north american (don't forget something with a carhartt logo on it).

incidentally one of the easiest ways to spot an american in a crowd when you’re in europe  or or asia, for example.

look for the generic polo, poorly fitting chinos, and the dumbest pair of shoes you’ve ever seen in your life. i see middle-aged men in shoes with the tongues poking out and giant plastic soles. they look like air jordans as done by brooks brothers.

How to tell tourists in socal too. Its the Midwest vibe. They stick out like a sore thumb among the high-end athlesuire wear and jeans/sandals crowd.

Wearing thongs/sandals in public is disgusting, by the way. It's worse than the blazer/jeans combo

Looking at the Intramatic? I like those. Go for a Tudor Panda like the one I posted a few pages back! I think I sold mine for not much more than the Intramatic would cost you.

"Hamilton Jazzmaster Performer Auto Chrono"

I saw it at the mall and liked it.

I used to hate chronographs but recently something has changed. Why not go big and flex on the children and coworkers?

...

How are the bracelets on these? I like heavier braclets.

Bought a $20/mth sub to The Guardian to stop the annoying pop-ups.

i would be inclined to support the graun but they seem intent on basically trolling every political issue facing the UK today.

anytime there's a glimmer of hope of some alternative, there will be some old labour grandee or fabian from a family like the toynbee's to foreclose all possibility in a series of graun columns over many months.

they launder the most heinous people and their opinions.

and still it's somehow one of the only reasonably sane news sources for brittisher nonsense.
