Ooh, new Seiko 5s

40mm case, no bezel

Not 100% sure on them, they feel like they should be field watches but still have the very dive watch styled indices. Bit like the BB41 in that respect but I suspect they'll grow on me

@twitter@mastodon.technology I bet milkshakes would be a decent choice

let's bring that back

@colon_three particularly fond of the english people who say that

and by fond I mean incredulous and filled with the urge to gesture at just... everything

up tesco all the checkouts are surrounded by plexiglass so it looks like they're all in fish cages

on the plexi is a sign saying "please do not touch the glass"

I was so tempted to add "it startles the staff"in sharpie or something

put a gonk on it

@TheGibson @twitter@mastodon.technology please no, nobody wants that mental image

@twitter@mastodon.technology the looters were instead all put on a waiting list and can collect their loot in 12-18 months

those who also chose to loot a Cellini or ladies' Datejust got better places on the list

@mavica I bet "sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow" would sound awesome on it

@twitter@mastodon.technology new york post is trying really hard to push that for some reason

to the point that one of their headlines is "Looters swipe $2.4M worth of watches from Soho Rolex store: police sources" despite the fact that the store's spokesman said absolutely nothing was taken because staff had cleared the display cases well beforehand

has anyone ever used the phrase "you're playing with fire" and not been immediately mocked for it?

@wigglytuffitout that's verbatim from the birds outside the window every morning

they're just saying it in bird

@Kat@snouts.online @wigglytuffitout not exactly full VR, but not as difficult as you might think

you can even get ready-to-fly models https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000259746660.html

@InspectorCaracal @wigglytuffitout @Kat@snouts.online I need to find a General I can pitch this to for the battlefield
