Today, I’m wearing my Explorer homage that I built.
@mikeflstfi that's a classy look too. Nice work.
@bfgreen
Thank you. I can’t be bothered to play the game with a Rolex authorized dealer, so I doubt I’ll ever own a real one. But I love the simplicity of it and its legibility.
Yours are just as beautiful.
My oldest son inherited his dad’s Rolex when he passed. Younger son is not impressed with brand names. His watch keeps him alive as it’s a very sophisticated scuba diving watch. And very expensive.
Are Rolex made by hand or machined?
@LnzyHou @mikeflstfi machined manufactured, hand assembled and quality checked - I believe.
Rather have your handmade watch.
Always include your Etsy link please.
@LnzyHou @mikeflstfi makes me wonder how we better support our fellow cosonauts here through their various hobbies, stores, and projects? Do we have a community of makers or sellers in a consolidated way? I admit I have not explored communities. #supportcoso
Adding a link is not obtrusive. But your choice. I’ll lay off.
@LnzyHou
No harm, no foul. I appreciate you rooting for me and I think there *are* instances where I’m less uncomfortable including a link.
I’m the same way with my guitar stuff too.
I have an unrealized fear of others seeing me as someone using CoSo as a way to solely make money. And it’s not that, for me.
/@bfgreen
Clearly not. I block folks who are only here to sell books, knitted garments, etc.
@mikeflstfi @I do believe sharing a passion or talent is a little more then simply spam promoting. I wouldn't find it intrusive at all for an occasional link. I think it's more about the real live interaction that a person does and you have always clearly done that. So feel free to toot your own horn on occasion. ❤️ LnzyHou
@mikeflstfi I totally like your music and watch posts, and you are a strongly interactive here, not a "seller". Links would never bother me.
But, you could always add the very casual "link in bio" for music/watch posts. The ultimate passive "I have stuff elsewhere, but only if you're interested".
@bfgreen @LnzyHou
Correct as far as I know.
No modern manufacturers hand-make components because you can’t make enough fast enough, or ensure quality.
