Going to Newport Beach / SoCal for vacation in a few weeks. Haven’t travelled in a long time. Are there still watch robberies going on out there to worry about? Was planning on bringing a couple watches, staying at a high-end resort in Newport

Robberies can happen literally anywhere you go. Use your brain and you’ll be fine. Don’t wear it clubbing, etc.

Airlines should gameify reducing emissions by rewarding flyers with discounts/coupons/miles/etc if we choose a route with a certain % lower emissions. Reason being, most people don't "really" care about saving the environment enough to inconvenience themselves or prioritize their airplane emissions over factors like duration and arrival time, but introduce basic incentives and more people will seek the greenest routes just to save a few bucks, or at least consider it a major priority.

Hey y’all. Would love to get some thoughts from people about buying vintage watches and what resources you might use to evaluate a piece before you buy.

I’ve only ever bought new watches but am in love with some vintage pieces. I’m not really sure where to start with resources to do my due diligence and ensure I’m not massively over paying or buying something that no watch maker today could really service.

Would love some thoughts from the bowl on any vintage buys y’all have done.

Thanks!
