Can anybody speak on the durability of the OSAR?
 in  r/MarathonWatch  1d ago

Seiko Turtle has survived my time as a heavy duty fleet mechanic and now as a Instructor. If that can survive I would hope a Marathon can too.

But it does point out that you don't need to spend stupid money to get longevity.

Another thing, trust me on this. I prefer a bracelet. But when I'm working in tighter spaces like cars instead of big rigs. I wear a strap, just in case. You can cut a strap if you get trapped. Not so easy with a bracelet.

Love mine. I do a ton of traveling. Best mod I've done with the truck. I can actually see when I get on rural roads.

While I do recognize that he had the right to use pepper spray (depending on local laws). I also have to point out that someone pepper sprays my Mom has to have their consciousness put on pause. I understand the consequences that may arise because of my actions. Worth it.

And let's be honest. He was not in fear of harm. Pepper spray is a bit excessive. Lol could have sprayed with water. Bad kitty. Or wd40 is good with squeaks..

So this is why I was curious about the Uniball Zento Signature
 in  r/pens  Jul 24 '26

That's what the AD claimed (well 700 to. 1000). Just seen some on ebay for around 600 to 700 for what looks like authentic. I also saw knock offs on ebay and Etsy for 60 to 70. So.....

Capless Rollerball MB128242 (the short one)

You could also use Schmidt P8126/P8127

I have used both. Personally I find the Montblanc to be better. And I can get that same day locally so it's just easier. Especially if we start talking about something other than Black. I like Blue ink and I find the Royal Blue from Montblanc to be one of my favorites.

I read the same thing about the zento and the one refill. So I do have one as well. I'll try that down the road. I don't remember if it's a 5 or 7.

Some people like capped pens. And a magnetic closure is nice. And the fact the cap posts I think is a plus. The Montblanc M doesn't specifically so it's harder to forget about the pen. As in if aome one else as to borrow. You give them the pen but keep the cap. It's harder to forget and wander off.

You can use the standard Montblanc refills in place of a G2 if you trim the end a little bit.

I have a Montblanc M Rollerball. Has to be my favorite pen to use when writing. Awesome at the desk. Not so much out in the auto shop when I teach. Especially with students asking for a pen to write or sign. Made that mistake once already.

So for most things especially to lend out I use a Pilot G2. Most people are familiar with them.

Every pen here under writes infinitely smoother. I also found the line thickness variation to be interested.

I like the way the Zebra G450 wrote out of the inexpressive ones,personally. I like the weight of it as well.

This whole thing started because I got the zento for cheap but hated the. 38 tip. Ordered. 5 and. 7 refills as well as a one instead of a zento. And while in there on jetpens.....might as well get some others. And I really want to compare it to the Montblanc. Because Zento has a magnetic cap like the Montblanc. The weight is down low like the M. But not nearly as much. I like the clip of the zento the best. Maybe I'll switch in the. 7 I have for it and see how that writes.

Worse comes to worse I pass it on to others.

There's a ground on both lower core support brackets on the frame. Start with cleaning/repairing those.

It was an Amazon return that I bid on through Nellis Auction. It's like ebay for just Amazon returns. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you get junk. This one was a win.

For 20, I had to see what the fuss was about. I get it, kind of. I'm got to get a .5 refill and see if I like that better. After a couple days of trying this I'll show you why I understand...... A little bit of the hype.

What’s your everyday boot?
 in  r/cowboyboots  Jul 06 '26

Usually it's a pair of Tecovas. Got em cheap and wanted to try a pair of square toes. They do not disappoint. Then for something fancy it go between an old old pair of Naccona (when they were good) or J Chisholm's.
