Yes. I am edgy.

I love abortions, Quentin Tarantino movies, atheism, body mutilation, serial killers, death metal, and hardcore drugs.

A vintage Soviet-era watch, however, is all what it takes to become Satan himself.

You give your professors gifts?

I gave my astronomy teacher a Raketa Copernicus. I've never seen a 70-something year old man cry before until I gave him that Commie mechanical.

pic related, its something like this

Yeah, what do you want to know?

I will give you one solid piece of advice:

***Be suspicious.***

Most Raketa watches will come from Eastern Europe, and most sellers from over there have a poor command of the English language. This means that they cannot give true 100% disclosure on the condition of the watch, specifications, etc. There are also some sellers that are just dishonest.

When you buy a vintage Raketa, operate on the assumption that there is something wrong with it. I would only recommend Raketa if you have experience in watchmaking. Most pieces that you buy on eBay will need some minor servicing. You may also find some "frankenwatches"-- a watch slapped together with pieces from other watches.

I bought a Copernicus from eBay, it seemed authentic enough, but when I opened it I found a Seiko automatic movement. Seiko movements aren't bad at all, but I was expecting a vintage Russian hand-wind movement. I was lucky, though, whoever made this franken did a quality job retrofitting a Seiko movement into this old watch.

So yeah, be careful out there.

So i ordered two button down shirts from uniqlo

S and M

I am 5'8 and 140. somewhat skinny but with wideish shoulders

The S fits well in the body but is a bit small in the shoulders. Also gives the shoulders a slightly rounded look (found this true with most button downs, might be posture)
The M is big in the body and long as fuck, but ok in shoulder

what do i do?

fuck the watch snob, here's my russian moon watch

Hello.

Just for you, faggot.

You gotta love the Russian mechanicals. Here's mine. I'm thinking of replacing the strap. Any suggestions?

Also. >6308223 Nice watch. Those Seiko divers are sweet.

I think it looks great. I was going to buy one myself, but then I ran into a Raketa Copernicus. I copped that shit instead.

The Zero has a bold design. It's ballsy without being tacky (someone is going to disagree with this, I know).

I have a feeling that I recommended a Big Zero to you a few days ago in a watch thread. Wassup.

You should always look into Russian Podeba, Raketa, or Luch mechanical watches. Those things have a lot of charm and they make excellent additions to any watch collection.

I recently copped this, I'm just looking for a good NATO strap.

The watch is:
>Raketa Copernicus (Copernic / Kopernik)
>Mechanical Movement

I love the sun and moon motif created by the round dials--an "eclipse" occurs every hour.
