In honor of celebrating women around the world, I would like to address the women of Bradley Beach.
Isn't it refreshing that our town is culturally diverse, mixed in religions, and non-partisan, encompassing residents of various political beliefs represented by all parties, including unaffiliated.
Let's come together, women of Bradley Beach, and embody the pillars of strength and unity we are capable of being. Beyond politics, let's unite and show that we are more than just borough hall. Let's set an example of a thriving community where each of us contributes our unique strengths to lift one another up. In the face of negativity and gossip, let us rise above and be led by respect. Let's work towards a community where honest words and actions prevail. Despite past divisions and conflicts, may we find peace and unity in Bradley Beach, a town that is less than a square mile in size but rich in diversity and potential. Let's move forward together, holding our elected officials and administrators accountable while refraining from divisive name-calling and baseless accusations. Let us , together, strive to contribute positively to our community, because that is what truly matters in the end.
See you in the sand...Have a beautiful weekend
As for the extremely link rare gold ref. 3510, take any previous high estimate of link mine and double it. With the price of gold and this watch's rarity, with at least one already in the collection of Porsche Design, link your guess is as good as mine.
It's with the most recent Snoopy edition that Mr. Forster hedged a bit. link Fence-sitting when it comes to the 2020 Omega Silver Snoopy undercuts his entire argument, if you ask me. On this watch Snoopy returns to his dancing link form inside a subdial, but link this time he's painted with luminescent material and glows (glows!), but that's not all.
From 1950 to link 1985, with the reference 2499, Patek Philippe had a monopoly on serially produced watches with the combination of a perpetual link calendar (a calendar that link will account for the length of months and for leap years), moonphase, and chronograph. But they didn't make many – 349 examples total, less than 10 per year.
Other brands don't have heritage but still make recreations that aren't well received. Sometimes, it's because link of price point, link and sometimes it's because of community arguments about "creative ownership." But to start a new brand and get the "right" amount of vintage inspiration to make watch lovers happy – that's tough. And yet, Baltic generally does a good link job of threading that needle.
If there's one other piece link of constructive criticism I could give, link it's that the font on the power reserve indicator and the thickness/boldness link of the hashes on the seconds subdial feel a bit incongruous with the elegance of the rest of the watch. The Grand Feu enameling is – yet again – a great bit of added master artistry, but it's just something that stuck out to me as a bit inelegant.
