/fa/ - Fashion

Does anyone know of a higher quality alternative to the MQ23-1e? I love the look of this watch but I want something that's going to last a bit longer. Preferably something that looks as close to this as possible.

>>10125927
Couldn't find anything close. They're $10, can't you just buy another if it breaks?

If you're over the age of 6, and can't read a clock/watch dial, please take note of the following PSA:

>>10126078
>who needs to know the exact time right? fashun haha

>>10126087
except two of the three watches you replied to have notches to indicate exact time.... you are fucking retarded if you cannot be just as accurate with or without the little number next to a notch

>>10126105
Orient looks better overall, but the Tissot has a nicer-looking crown. The day indicator is also a nice feature.

>>10126087
Again, if you're over the age of 6 and can't figure out how to read a dial that has the notches, but no numbers, then you are wasting oxygen that should be breathed by people that aren't malfunctioning imbeciles.

>>10126164
all of my want on that gmt pepsi

Steinhart OVM v1, custom bezel insert.
Definitely taken a beating, but I got this watch the week it was released. Been all over the world with it, and it keeps on ticking.

>>10126202

This is hilarious.

>>10126087

It reads 10:10, what's difficult about that? Still looks gaudy though.

>>10126164
seiko model?

This is my current watch and I'm looking for a similar model but with a better build quality. It was pretty cheap and though I like it, it got a bit beat up, with the chrome coming off and scratches on the glass. So I'm looking into replacing it sometime in the future.

haha my memewatch

>>10126449
Some variation of the SKX007 or maybe SKX013

>>10126472

>>10126731

>>10126591
Yeah, found it its skx013
Shame its discontinued

>>10126887
Love the Alpinist series. I just wish they were a little bigger.

I had a chance to buy an SBCJ019 several years back when I was in Kyoto for the equivalent of about $300, but the watch was just too small at 38mm. Love the 8F56 movement.

>>10126488
That's ugly as shit throw it away please

>>10126324
Fun watch Saturday!

>>10126990
what a tasteless watch

Could this be worn casually if the strap was changed?

>>10128148
Dogshit

>>10127568

>>10127004
Very nice.

>>10126472
saw this watch on amazon. I could not take the leap and buy that shit. no fucking light, not even any lume on the hands and not even mineral glass and no metal case makes this such a bad deal. the design would be great for an analog-digital watch otherwise. but it's an old model.
they released a slightly newer version but it was all black plastic and had numbers instead of sticks. looked awful. there are no square ana-digi watches I came across otherwise. but casio does have some nice analog-digitals if you're willing to pay at least 150 bucks.

>>10128884
Big fan on the SARB watches, but they're so small. I wish they made something in the 40-41mm range.

>>10129645
Watches are already getting enormous, why do you want to ruin whatever few reasonably sized watches you can still find? 38mm for a dressy watch is a pretty reasonable medium size, I wouldn't call it small.

Why don't you look at the SARX015, that's 40mm if I remember right and it's a more casual style to go with the larger size.

>>10127407
My engagement present.

>>10129669
I get what you're saying, but I have 7.75" wrists, and I'm 6'4“, 230lbs. Anything smaller than 40mm looks small on me, and anything under 38mm looks laughable. I have a Cartier Tank that I received as a graduation present over a decade ago, but I gifted it to my wife after not having worn it for over 8 years.

I went with the Seagull 816.362 hi-beat instead of a SARB. 40mm, and less common than the Seikos.
See >>10129684

>>10126472
That is retarded as hell.
Why do you need both digital and analog?

>>10130247
It's more or less a design choice I guess to give it a retro feel. My father had an almost identical watch in the 80s, though not from Casio. You could however set two time zones if you would need this somehow.

Cause im too poor for a nomos

>>10130460
Id watch?

>>10126015

>Muh minimal Fashion watch with 2 dollar chinese movement.

These kind of brands suck dick.

>>10127162
>but the watch was just too small at 38mm.

IMHO that's pretty much the perfect size if your wrists are in the normal range (7-8 inches). I wish more modern watches were 36-38mm range instead of the most common 40+.

Generic watch with a $5 miyota quartz movement for over $400? No thanks.

>>10132750
And the "1 of 250" tag is a lie. They've made several thousand of those.

>>10131075
Yeah, I just like that the actual greyhours watch isn't super thick like the "we're so Made in china we actually print it on our dial" Rodina Bauhaus watch.

>>10131063
It's literallly the only Rodina watch.

Also it's got a stupidly thick frame.

>>10133127
It does look nice, though. The company is an example of a marketing success—look at all the normies commenting on their instagram. The movement is a Miyota 2025, $5 indeed. Still a cool-looking watch, even though it's inferior.

That watch is a $10 Chinese "Winner automatic". Knockoff of the Longines Master Collection Automatic

>>10133250
Or, perhaps some of us actually have jobs where your phone stays in this thing called a "pocket"

Perhaps you heard of this "pocket" contraption much a less heard of a real adult job instead of Master Fry Chief at McCucks.

>>10133330
Yeah, they could have at least used a $25 automatic movement and given the watch a nice sweeping second hand.

Sounds like a future plan to me

Thoughts?

>>10133652
dnc

>>10131890
I think so. Skx013 is definitely harder to find and more expensive. I think the only difference is that the 013 is smaller (38mm I think) vs the 42-43?mm 007

$228, BP Factory, chink clone of ETA 2836, acrylic crystal, I assume the bracelet is as cheap and folded-linked as the real thing.

Cop or not? It would be my first fake watch so I'm a little iffy about it. I like the ref. 1675 specifically though and I don't really like any of the GMT-Master homages I've found.

>>10133652

Faggots like you ruined watch sizes for everybody.
>Muh wristgame
>muh attention from strangers because of watch

Smaller watches look good, even on a bigger wrist. But for some reason, every skelly wristed bitch goes for 45mm.
>compensating?

>>10136153
Not everyone is a skeleton wristed bitch like you.
I have pretty sturdy ~21cm big wrists and need watches to be between 38 (absolute minimum) and 42 (44 absolute maximum)

>>10130460
Nomos are overrated dogshit anyway.
I FUCKING HATE THEIR FAGGY LITTLE DESIGN SO MUCH.

>>10133613
Sounds like a scam. But I'm ok with you, milking normies.
Just do it matey.

>>10136205
No no, i just hate nomos and minimalism with a passion.
They remind me of fashion brands, selling 400$ watches with 4$ quartz movements.

Nomos is similar overprized.
They had fucking potential, with inhouse movements, but nope, they chose to go minimalism.

>>10130460
just cop'd

>>10136245
no different than what Corniche is doing now

>>10136400
Yeah, and i like them for that. At least they look better than Daniel Faggington. Thank god this cancer has not arrived in germany, yet.

You can easily do a kickstarter. Just copy and refine some classic style. Somebody will buy it anyway.

>>10136422
Yeah, that sounds good. Unfortunately I have no knowledge of watchmaking, which is too bad. I imagine having to design the case, movement housing, hands, dial, and crystal all to be a massive pain, but this definitely sounds like the /fa/ dream to me

pic related, how to milk normies :^)

>>10136216
you're in for a shock

can you guys recommend me a decently /fa/ (not terrorist) sports watch, something cheap?

i like some of the terrorist casios but the $10 will make me look poor as fuck lol

anything kind of similar but a little betteR?

*must be waterproof and prefer plastic band

Post your watches and talk shit about each others' collections

>>10136938

Nice Omega in white and blue, is there something wrong with the date there?

Did you buy it in that good condition or have you polished and cleaned it yourself? Was it difficult?

I like the style, thinking of similarily looking Accutron - I'm not into quartz but whoever once heard it hum will be restless until gets one.

Like the Chineese chronometer, too.

>>10126990
Post wrist pic mate, it looks nice

>>10136153
God, my watch is so big. Hope people tell me how cool I am, because I'm so insecure in my shitty life.

40-42mm is the new normal. Your mistake is thinking that you should wear anything for anyone other than yourself.

>>10137031
The date is fine, I guess it was changing over in the photo. It has the date and the day in Spanish.

I actually didn't buy it, it was my dad's but he hasn't worn it in years so I promised to fix it up and wear it. It's in pretty good shape cosmetically and it's running perfectly but I'm still going to get it serviced and get the crystal polished up a bit just because it's long overdue for a service. I'm actually going to send it to a friendly anon from the /g/ watch threads who is a watchmaker in training.

I actually don't like the seagull as much as I thought I would and I wear it pretty rarely. It's a pretty watch and the mechanical chrono movement is cool but I might end up selling it I guess.

>>10137139
Is it weird if I wish that watch had an acrylic crystal with a couple of decent nicks in it? It's so strange having a watch which is beat to shit but with a pristine crystal.

It's nice to look at by itself, but I guess it just doesn't look good when I actually wear it.

Can I post my penisquartz or is that too lewd for this thread?

The clusterfuck of dials on the right was a gift from the girlfriend, hence why I still have it. Though I do use it for the gym and cycling. I've also got a Seiko Diver 5, but it's out in the garage.

Anyway, thoughts?

>>10137746
That box is pretty nice, almost than the watches in it. I kind of like that Tissot though, it's pretty neat and it's different from the usual diver styling. It seems like you really like arabic numerals and I personally don't. As for the one on the right, I guess we all need a sort of ugly girlfriend chrono.

>>10127568
wow

>>10137463
I'd much rather have the sapphire crystal. I'm hard on my watches, but at the end of the day I would still like to see the time without issues. I had an 80s speedy that I sold off because of the crystal. Looking to get the sapphire sandwich with my bonus this year (dat 12:00 penis)

Wearing a bullhead similar to this.

Poor tier reporting

Thoughts?

Dat tasteful restraint.

>>10138432
Better than the other cheap watches out there, but it still looks cheap. That design is tacky. Sorry.

Seikos tend to be well manufactured and reliable though.

Auction ends in 4 hours, currently at 81 USD.

Should I cop?

Can I get some pics and reviews of watch boxes?

>>10138432
Saw this on a few fat, hairy arms at my local LAN party

How do people feel about the SNK 809? it will be my first mechanical and it seems good for the price.

>>10138723
It looks hilariously disproportionate with those wrists. Assuming you don't have the wrists of a child, it's unoffensive enough. I like it, but I have plebby taste.

>>10138746
It's a 37mm watch. I didn't think it could look hilariously big on anyone. Definitely child wrists.

Pic is Seagull 816.362 again. 40mm

>>10137402

Thanks!

>>10137726

Maybe the best of Seikos I've ever seen, better than the bullhead chronograph and better than Grand Seiko they make today. Superb. Congratulations on pristine condiion, too.

>>10137726
I didn't get much of a response in /g/ so I guess I'll ask here. The crystal on the white watch is a mineral crystal and the glass itself seems to be fine, but it has an AR coating on it which is in pretty bad shape and it looks hazy from certain angles. I have some polywatch and a cape cod cloth coming in the mail, should I try to use either of these to strip off the coating or should I just leave it alone? It seems possible to do that with good results on AR coated sapphire, but it seems like AR coated mineral crystals aren't as common and I'm worried I could scratch the shit out of the crystal or something like that.

I'm looking for something similar, but with better water resistance, to go sailing and hunting.Any recommendations? What's your tool watch?

It's worth about make 1/3 of that.
If even that much.

Somenoe buy me. Please.

>>10140471
I don't know, I inherited it. This one is a 168.004 in gold cap which I would guess would probably be worth under $1000 especially since mine isn't in great condition. I also don't know how different prices are in bongland.

For your case it'll depend a whole lot on what material it's made out of and what condition it's in and how original the parts are. There's a lot of frankenwatches so make sure you don't get fucked over with a watch that's cobbled together out of whatever was lying around.

What's the deal with MVMT Watches? I've been thinking of purchasing one of their watches, as I quite like the design, but I'd like to know if it's just overpriced poor quality bullshit (DW tier) before eventually copping.

>>10140992
Well...no. Why would I cut the Porsche badge?

>>10140996
Funny thing is, whereas the Steinhart got compliments from a watch collector and some russian clients that mistook it for a rolex or omega, a lot of Girls complimented the Nixon and DW ones, so they are fine in my book.

I'm attending watch repair and service crash course, not a serious school or something.

I guess you need books (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/0856677043/ref=olp_page_previous should do), some basic tools (search through watchuseek forums for guides, I sure did see them there), one movement in good working order for reference, the bigger the better, Seagull with small second hand would do) and then some broken watches and parts.

It gets out of control fast though.

>>10141143

Because badges and plates and fucking tombstones don't belong on shirt cuff. Even if you do business with Russians.

If you only do it for the grills though...

Can anyone help me find a similar watch for less than £100?

Gotta be these colours (hands can be all gold)

Thanks /fa/

>>10140163
I'm not usually a fan of Seiko but that King Quartz is sexy as fook.
Any chance of some close ups showing the finish in more detail?

>>10140851
I've done the polywatch thing plenty of times. It usually does a good job, but there's just something about wearing polarized sunglasses and watching the sapphire crystal on your watch completely disappear.

Hnnng

>>10125968
Ugly

>>10127001
Burn that strap you fucking sheep

Does this watch (the current ceramic seamaster 300), in either blue or black, have any merit at all?

Or is it, especially the black one, just a submariner substitute and not something more unique looking like the planet ocean?

>>10136191
Don't mind this idiot.

You can resume sucking cocks now.

All I wanted was a clock with dark brown or black stripes, but googling it won't do.

>>10141678
Yeah I'll take a couple more in a bit I guess. The reference is 0852-8025 by the way, there's a whole bunch of similar looking King Seikos with different dial finishes or with and without day and date and stuff like that and they're surprisingly cheap.

>>10141678

>>10140708
That looks gaudy as fuck. I know all the WIS faggots will say Patek can do no wrong, but I disagree that reeks of new money from miles away.

>>10142855
How clean and ascetic aesthetic can a dial be?

Also dirty crystal. Hueg resolution/lense focus on the top bezel insert gives away all the times I have beaten the watch during about 4 years when you zoom in.

Just got the Orient, now it's a -collection-.

tbh orient divers are ugly as fuck. some old middleguy bling on the center of the bracelet and mismatch details all over the watch. nothing works together

>>10142898
I'm pretty happy with it!

>>10127004

Hands are just a few mm too short. I do really like their watches though. I was going to buy pic related last year but I tried one on and it was just a bit too big for me.

> best looking GMT I'd ever seen for less than $5k

>>10138502

No more than $100.

Yup just get a cheap, but good quality diver. Check out the Orient Mako or Ray, too.

Note: there is a smaller version of the SKX007, but I can't remember its number. 007 is 42mm and the other is either 38 or 40, which would be more in tune with the size of the Marathon you posted (which I think is 38).

>>10140432

Beautiful. Black strap would look good, but won't match with the gold as well as another brown one IMO.

>>10126887
Contemplating buying one of these. How do you like yours? How saturated is the green dial IRL? It's tough to discern from photographs.

>>10142223

I agree. Patek is to WIS what Rolex is to a layman.

> muh money

That's not to say PP hasn't come out with some exquisite watches. I thought the watch posted was fake for a minute too. Awful.

>>10141826

Bracelet is 10 times more comf than the sub IMO. I quite like them, but you'll always get the "Is that a Rolex?". People are generally quite aware of Omega though. Just as good as a plan old sub IMO.

Good watch that will last a very long time. Be ready to explain the helium valve though.

I'd personally prefer one over a PO.

How much for pic related? Any more info? Never seen an Alpinist like that befo.

can anyone identify this watch?

>>10143488
No idea where to find one. Apparently it's a SSASS Alpinist. I realized after posting it that it's not the SARB I'm looking at anyway.

But I would still consider it.

Currently the only watch I own, 30 dollar Timex with a brown leather strap off of Amazon. Very basic, pretty minimalistic. Get's a lot more compliments than I thought it would, and people, for whatever reason, are surprised when I tell them it was just 30 bucks.

>>10143504

Much more beautiful than the SARB017 imo. Plus

> muh GMT

Must be rare if I haven't seen one, and that means it would carry a hefty premium.

>>10143506
Another pic. The leather strap is holding up very nicely after almost 6 months of nearly everyday wear.

It's getting some nice creases in it too.

>>10143501

Better off posting on WUS mate.

It looks like chinese 2 dollar watch. And that's including postage.

>>10143535
yeah it's quite loud lol

>>10144053
piss off m8

>>10143506

I used to wear this watch before the watch
i wear now.


that INDIGLO feature is seriously the best thing ever....what sucks thou after I think a year or more I dropped it and the light never worked anymore.

when I was in the UK I changed the strap to a better quality leather.

The watch still works though! After what seems like 3+ years.


Orient is the watch I'm wearing now and it's pretty remarkable how many compliments iI get on it

>>10141826
In my experience Seamasters are only worn my wannabe yuppies and middle aged men who learned that James Bond wore one.

I've been looking to get one of these myself.
Which color should I cop? The one in your pic or this one?

Note that Im probably gonna switch the metal links with black leather band

>>10144161
almost copped this recently but the stop2go version . Really nice watch. but got convinced by a really nice looking armani swiss made instead.


Swapped build quality for aesthetics.

not a fan of the rainbow tbh. its too uhh 'flamboyant' for me.

cant seem to find a pic of the white one with black leather strap

>>10144209
am currently on the shitter. will do in a min

looking to pick up a swatch irony as a funpiece besides my other watches I have since I never owned one and I like some of the designs a lot.

I have 4 of them in mind but I'm leaning towards the happy joe blue swatch the most. would you say it's effay or nah?

>>10144211
the orient disk comes in several mono colored versions too. there is a lime green version (lime as an accent color.)

>>10144612
other ones I like.

>>10138723
got the SNK805. these watches are very popular on /fa/ anyway.

your wrist is crazy small though. it's a rather small watch.

>>10138368
nice scratch at 10 o'clock. also, enjoy your loud ticking.

>>10144639
this looks like poop

Is gray a good look for the Vostok?

>>10142208
Gorgeous, love the brush effect on the steel.
Need me one of them!

>>10144211
use code youtube30 on their usa dealer

>>10144685
S'alright, doesn't look wide enough though.
I'd prefer a chunky black leather strap on a Tank.

>>10144652
ain't my wrist, its still in the mail.

>>10144771
It doesn't look as bad in real life, with the space between, but yeah, I made it just a millimeter too thin.

>>10144659
it's the swatch I like the least out of the 4 listed.

W2C all black minimalistic watch?

Just bought this an hour ago

>>10145204

>>10145410
nice job tbh

Never owned a watch. Tiny wrists. Do they make watches for tiny wrists? Serious question

>>10145636
Get anything below 40mm. There's a plenty.

>>10145538
Yea? Well I like it!

>>10145600
thanks tbh

>>10145410
Does your Vostok keep good time?

>>10145860
Every Boctok keep perfect time of the people. If that time does not match capitalist pig time then that is not problem with watch.

Pic vaguely related

>>10145860
Yeah, it's alright.
Like ~20 sec a day off or something.

are ROLEXes actually good watches?
or is it just the brand?

>>10145881
both tbh

>>10140984
Those Daniel Wellington watches look even more like shite on the wrist than expected - the strap is too cumbersome for the case and the case diameter is too large

>>10143402
>> best looking GMT for less than $5k
Negative. That's definitely the Grand Seiko Hi-beat GMT, ref SBGJ001. (Not much less than $5k, though)

>>10143509
The SBCJ* series is the GMT Alpinists. They're definitely more rare, and use the HEQ 8F56 movement, which is fucking awesome. Even used SBCJ* watches will run you well beyond $500 (NOS is $1000+).

Another Seiko I'd considered buying was the SBQJ015, because it uses the same Perpetual calendar GMT movement. Pictured

>>10145881
They're very good watches with a lot of nice iconic designs but at the same time a lot of the people who buy them just do it for the name. They're also decently overpriced for what they are but I guess that's what you get for buying the most recognizable watch brand by far.

did i do bad

Bummpo

>>10145636
go to amazon. search for watches. choose all the options you want. tick the box with 35-39mm or some shit. it only lists watches with that size now. also, watch out for case depth. everything from 6-11mm case thickness works. 12-15mm is crap.

W2C? Orient Bambino FER2400CNO

>>10146873
Literally google or amazon or something, it's a very popular watch from a major company which is still in production it's not hard.

Now if you could tell me where to cop a 6139 for a decent price and which doesn't need an expensive servicing, then we're talking.

Time for a new thread?
>>10146873
The custom strap looks really good with that watch
