what does that mean, yes it has lots of stuff inside it but watches should only be there to perform a function. yes i know you can show off to your poor friends about how you can afford to put $25k on your wrist but it's such a waste of precious resources

desu automatic watches are fucking tiresome
you have to put back the exact hour every week because you didnt wear your watch during the week end lol

?? Omega's submarine counterpart is literally cheaper, less brand recognition and less resale value. Rolex price holds up pretty well and with the years even increases due to the vintage scene

Get a Patek, AP, Vacheron, Lange or Grand Seiko instead and thank me later

>>28031583
Yes, that's what I want on my wrist. I want to scream "expensive watch but casual". Not explain to people I wear an Omega which is supposedly better because watch enthousiasts on an anonymous board about trading shitcoins told me so

What makes the omega better than the sub?

>>28031452
It has a lot of mechanical moving parts which move the clock. To me it's impressive and I Iike having such
arguably hand made sophistication on my wrist. Go watch some YouTube videos on the movements

Watches are for people rich enough to buy overpriced shit but not rich enough to still be insecure about their wealth. It’s all a cope. Btw Japan makes the best watches.

Rolex is literally for plebs.

Can't go wrong with these. And those Seiko movements that Invicta uses in the autos are solid, I'd love to see them in more watches overall for the hacking and handwinding.

grand seiko is where it's at

based. I got it on a sailcloth strap now thought about buying one of those modded ones off ebay. I do want an old datejust on a jubilee bracelet will have a nice collection of gems when i make it.

look for a used white dial anon, they are already fetching a premium because they are discontinued but they are the best modern rolex imo. all others are way too flashy (yacht-master line is a fucking sin, sub is pretty basic imo, day-date and date are overpriced)
if you want to save money and get a better watch (but with less resale value), look at tudor or grand seiko imo. Sinn also makes a great watch for 1-1.5k but not as high quality as the others mentioned

>>28030820
Jut get it whenever. Don't ask this place for shit.

You buy a fake rolex and spend the 10k on hookers and blow

Watches are for MGTOWs.

I'm worth more than 250k and I dont give a fuck about this. Maybe I'll get into watches when I'm worth $5M until then its a waste of time and money

>>28030820
Buy a replica and save money. They are actually 1:1 and cost 1/10 sometimes even 1/100 of the real deal. Bought a rep Patek (pic related) and you cant tell them apart from the genuine piece.

>>28038272
Look for the replica watch info forum if you are interested. Pic related was 500 bucks shipping included. Actually clone movement not some quartz crap.

Based, defined

My wife has an Apple Watch. I like to mess with her by randomly mentioning odd niche products (last month it was the Moonpod) and waiting for her to bitch about it showing up in her Facebook feed.

>>28038272
bro i could tell this was a fake from the thumbnail, do you actually convince people this is a $50k nautilus? there are some really convincing replicas that you actually have to examine the movement but this is not an example of one of them.

>>28030820
>rolex
Eww. Ill take a speedmaster for daily.

>>28031033
This lmao

>>28038753
Kek its the angle, its not crooked nor imperfect. Also gens are not perfect as well. The goodness of certain reps has been discussed tons of enthusiasts who tore them apart and put them next to gens. Nobody will be able to tell them apart, not even next to each other due to the fact genuines vary by the year of production
See the comparison below
https://forum.replica-watch.info/forum/patek-philippe/8427326-3k-factory-pp-aquanaut-5167-rep-vs-gen
Spending tens of thousands of dollars to buy a genuine watch is a literal waste of money.

>>28038977
You understand nothing of watches. If you did you'd know thats not even a nautilus lol
See >>28039199

>>28039199

why would you not buy a frederique constant instead of buying cheap shit pretending to be rich ?

>>28039285
>The Aquanaut took inspiration from the Nautilus, but with a tri-part case and a simpler construction. It also had a rubber strap rather than a steel integrated bracelet. It did, however, share the Nautilus' octagonal/porthole shape, and this was very much part of its appeal.

on a rubberband vs a steel bracelet you really pwned me quit buying chink shit. This is a $50 watch tops. I can tell by your fingernails your a dumb poorfag buying knock off shit bc some rapper said "patek", I bet you also own a lot of "designer" clothing.

lmaoing at all the boomers in this thread trying to justify buying mechanical watches

why would you wear old outdated technology that performs worse than cheaper alternatives? You boomers are so stupid, smartwatches are infinitely superior, have better accuracy and nearly infinite functions.

Can you get more based? Versatile, classy, restrained, masculine and reasonable. Neither gaudy nor cheap. Everything great about a rolex with nothing bad. A watch you can wear nearly anywhere.

Imagine not carrying precious metals on your wrist

Nope. Fuck Swiss cunts.

NEVER buy anything from Switzerland. They still refuse to ban tritium and will give you cancer.

Fuck that, you getting played. I bought a 50 buck diver from Invicta off amazon. Inb4 all fags call me a poorfag. guess what, every other fucking goddamn day people think tell me what a nice watch i have and think its a rolex or omega or some shit. oh yea and you know what OP, its quartz so i can bang that shit up like i usually do and it still works. when it breaks i will unironically get another one.
