Help me chose between these 3 as everyday watch for my first luxury timepiece .
The last photo is datejust 36 mm Casey Neistat 's one on rubber and i don't know why but i find it really cool .

Seiko 5 I got the other day from a pawnshop. A real gem.

>>12900595
Looks nice enough to me.

>>12900574
For first luxury watch go for a metal bracelet diver or at least 100m wr from a mainstream luxury brand/range.

Be it Rolex, Omega, Breitling, Grand Seiko or any similar stuff.

anyone able to ID this? I was left it by a relative and my watch knowledge is fairly limited

Alright here's the secret to interesting watch.

BUY OLD, BUSTED, DISCOLORED, SCRATCHED DIAL, OLD BUSTED ASS DIAL WATCH.

That watch will be infinitely cooler than your shining rolex.

>>12900645
1960-1970s Rolex Precision

Here's a similar model: https://www.blackbough.co.uk/product/rolex-precision-gold-vintage-wristwatch-hallmarked-1964-and-sold-in-1967-wwrgpad/

Yours has conflicting details so it might be an uncommon model or a redial

>>12900641
I already have this skx007 for spearfishing

>>12900654
thanks, it seems to work fine so would it be worth trying to sell? - I'd like to get into watches a bit but I've never really bought anything beyond occasional unremarkable quartz watches so if I sold the rolex the aim would be to get a more modern mechanical watch; just struggling to get an idea of value for the rolex

>>12900595
Seiko 5 are super cool , i'm looking for snkk45 at the moment

>>12900666
Go for the Rolex Explorer or a Grand Seiko then.

Where is the cheapest place to buy SNK809K2 inside of the EU?

>>12900879
pawnshops

>>12900879
Creationwatch?

>>12900574
Explorer is much more durable and versatile than the others.

>>12900595
Why are you wearing it so far off your wrist?

Is this an Explorer thread now?

>>12901171
What does that even mean?

>>12901144
Kind of weird that the crown doesn't line up right side up.

>>12901205

>>12901203

>>12901206
I want that one with engraved "ROLEXROLEX" rehaut .
The crown logo on the crown is not always facing up

>>12901208

>>12901223

>>12900964
My wrist is really thin and I haven't had it shortened yet

>>12901233

>>12901239

>>12901216
The crown faces up on mine, I think it would kind of bug me if they didn't get that detail right. I think the engraving is dumb, they shitted up their own watches just to make them harder to fake and then the Chinese fakes managed to copy the engraving perfectly anyway.

>>12901245

>>12901249
I guess you were just lucky with that crown :)

I'm in pain chosing between 36 vs 39 mm explorer .
I can have 39mm for 5k€ grey market , and 36 mm used one for 500€ less ... C'mon used market ...

>>12901253
My watchporn folder is empty now feel free to fill it by posting .

>>12901277
36mm is a perfect size in my opinion but I guess it's personal preference and 39 is a trendier size. The previous 214170 with the short hands looks awful but the newer version with the hands fixed and the lumed numbers looks great so either size is a good choice now.

>>12901281
Sure

>>12901288

>>12901290

What do y’all think of my “””new””” zenith /wg/

>>12901288
Nice watch thank you :)

>>12901288
>>12901290
>>12901291
damn beautiful

>>12900925

Thanks senpai, that's by far the cheapest and free shipping

>>12901584
I got my skx007 from them , you are welcome !

>>12901171
What does that mean ?

>>12901288
Beautiful, one day I’ll get a vintage constellation. For the moment I’m telly happy with my 70s Genève.

I want to get a gold watch. Any recommendations? Brands?

>>12901876
Rolex Datejust/Day-Date

>>12901331
I like it.

>>12901961
negative displays kinda suck IRL though

What’s a poorfag version of the Daydate or Justdate in silver with a black face. They discontinued the Seiko. Preferably something less than $150 and reliable.

Anyone recommend me a dirt cheap watch that's also waterproof around $100-150?

I just want something to wear to the beach and knock around.

An automatic/mechanical would be nice but I can live with quartz

Post nice Breitlings, don't see many of them - especially newer ones

>>12902931
Probably because Breitling is fart-tier

>>12901876
Rolex president.

omega speedmaster pro chrono or a breitling colt chrono?

>>12902958
Speedmaster, how is this even a question?

>>12902952
Sorry, back to posting omegas and rolexes

Client came in today with this. Man, been trying to find the model. Help a brother out.

Tempted to sell a few of the bitcoins I farmed to get one. Only thing is they probably won't sell one to me. Feels bad man.

>>12901291
god damn why would some idiot refinish it like that. What a shame.

>all these hairy ass fucking wrists

fuck off

>>12903043
It's a fake calatrava travel time ref.5524. Its like 60k anyways.

Anyone try a Kavu watch strap?

wish i had tried it on before buying, was feeling pretty impuslive. oh well, they feels kinda heavy and big.

>>12903140
>tag
>2big4u

lel I would flip it

>>12903140
holy fuck dude you have a 12yo kid who's been feed only soy all his life wrists

>>12903145
i dont think its even possible to flip tag

>>12900669
>selling a family heirloom piece to buy a new watch

Are you retarded? Unless you really hated the person you inherited it from you should never sell that watch. Having some history behind a watch just makes it that much better to have, you would definitely end up regretting selling it.

Going diving today.

>>12902886
Vostok amphibian or casio mdv106 for super cheap. also check out orient divers in that range

>>12903281
mah nuggah...

>>12901876
Calatrava vintage.

>>12902931
Heresy as it may sound my preferred Breitling is the Aerospace.

ISO a super low profile, minimalist watch. preferably black w/ a leather strap. rec?

>>12904058

Just wear a fitness tracker.
Minimalist watches are stupid outside of actual black-tie.

>>12904058
Daniel Wellington

>>12904119
>Daniel Wellington
yea son i like these. thanks for the actual rec unlike the fuck above you

>>12904058
Depends, you can choose from a Swatch Skin to a Patek Calatrava.

>>12904146
I dont see Daniel Wellington having nothing to talk about. Better a similar Citizen Eco-Drive if you dont want a mechanic (which i recomend).

>>12904058

Have a look at Nomos, since you like the Daniel Wellington designs. Unlike DW Nomos actually makes quality watches though, so in my opinion a much better choice

>>12904146
Oh please dont buy a fucking DW. theyre overpriced chiese crap.
If anything get a Jungans max bill, tissot everytime, Timex weekender,Hamilton intramatic, or any of a million seikos instead of that.

I'm torn between seiko Sarb033 and sarb035. I want to put on a leather strap like pic. Is it any good for my first daily casual watch?

>>12904328
Here's the 035 on a leather strap?

>>12904328
>Is it any good for my first daily casual watch?
Yes. Quite good.

>>12904328
Absolutely a great watch. I have the 033. The black is more versatile version imo. I have it on a thick dark brown colareb strap. Colareb and Hirsh are my favorite leather band makers.

>>12904362
WTF... Cmon, really?

>>12902592
Anyone?

>>12902592
Why would you buy something that screams “I couldn’t afford the watch I wanted so I bought a knockoff”?

>>12904750
These seiko's look like it? idk
Sarb033 and sarb035
I'm the same poster as >>12904328 lol

>>12904812
Just honestly want a seiko with a fluted bezel and black face. Something reliable. Don’t want to go Scum-wave right now.

>>12904819
Thanks, but I already have a seiko like these. Just want something like mentioned above. Beautiful watches by the way.

Just thought i'd let you fuckers know The Pontiff is going to have a livestream with his old man in about 45 minutes so get in there and flick him some coin on SUPERCHAT ya lousy viscious mean nasty vinyl cunters cause The Pontiff don't do shit for free, big boi, work with me not against me, big boi, it's all gone pear shaped, it's over red rover, the youtube game has torn the pontiff a third and fourth ass hole and he hasn't got a BRASS RAZOO

what's the best watch to put on a nato strap?
preferably also an all purpose beater?

>>12905147
cop a casio mdv106 and call it a day and never browse watch generals or watch forums and your wallet will thank you

Just got pic related today. Would it be haute effay?

>>12905217
>casio mdv106
that's actually ideal, but I'm worried about the large size, my wrists are little off of 7"

Crusty

A month after I bought this old timex it stopped ticking. A shame but I don't really think it's worth fixing.

>>12905543
its a cheapo so open it up and see whats wrong so maybe you can learn from possibly fixing it. Thats what i did with some of my old cheapo watches. ruined two elgins and a timex before i got the hang of fixing most things.
plus polish that fucking crystal

My orient has quickly become one of my favorite watches even though it's one of my cheapest watches. It's not flawless but the errors are small (for example the day indicator does not have Tuesday centered)


Also leather strap vs. metal bracelet?

>>12905554
It's a JDM model

>>12903140
>>12903179
i'll give ya $500 for it

>>12903399

My Aerospace and my copilots Rolex. I've owned a couple Aerospaces, and the avantage non-tuxedo dial is the pinnacle of the design IMO.

>>12905058
In your own words. PHUCK OFF

>>12904232
>find one i like
>starting at 2560
wtf? why?

Ordered a bracelet for my Alpinist at strapcode. Thought these were out of stock but they still have some.

It's not a Seiko one but hey, solid endlinks, and people are happy with them.

Damn they look so much better on a bracelet I'm so happy.

>>12905033
Day n Night

Is it effay?

>>12905579
i paid 2500$ for it. what a major waste of money.

So my friend has a fake Seamaster of all watches and he's unaware of this. It was given to him by his father. I'm not sure if his father bought a fake watch on purpose but it wouldn't surprise me really. Should I tell my friend that he's wearing a fake or not? It feels like I'm holding a secret now.

>>12906387
don't go shooting people now.

>>12906392
How do you know it's fake?

>>12906425
Check out the pip on the bezel. Also it probably shouldn't be that scratched Right? It was bought around 2010. Things just look off. Also it's quartz so easy to replicate.

>>12906479
100% fake. It's better to let him know its a rep then to let him be blind sided when it inevitably comes up when getting repaired or something.
Thats my opinion at least. If he is an asshole then he may get mad.
Also the lume near the date window is off, date wheel is not alligned. looks like the rep makers reused the dial and wheel for a different watch. Its similar to the autos but without the text.
picrelatd is how the quartz version is

>>12906479
>>12906494
I own one, quartz too, and that one seems legit.

The helium valve has to be exactly that way, not aligned. And the bezel wasnt ceramic and is relatively easy to damage.

To be sure, the serial number must be very very small and at a corner of the back part of the "frame" (sorry about poor watch technical english). Check it with Omega.

>>12906502
you're retarded or trolling. Its all fucked up. Not even a good rep. Look for the serial sure, but let's not waste our time.

>>12906502
>In fact mine is in this same thread, second post.

>>12906508
The bezel was so easy to waste and so expensive that many people used chinese bezel replicas. Check how mine has damages too, changed the saphire for 400€ at Omega but didnt want to pay other 280€ i believe for the bezel. Considered chinese ceramics then, but decided to stay original.

>>12906508
But you are right, the lumen near to the date looks fake.

>>12906515
also look at the size and spacing of the "swiss made" on the dial. Omega doesnt print them like that.

>>12900645
>>12900654
Lugs don't match at all.

>>12903276
I think you're building it up a bit much. Heirloom sort of implies that it's a piece that's been passed down from generation to generation. He said he's inherited it from a relative and it's a piece from the 60's, so anon is obviously only the second owner. I don't see a problem selling it. So what, uncle Jim left you his rolex because he wanted to give a little something to all of his nieces and nephews. Unfortunately it's a straight up dress watch so it's not versatile and anon will prob never wear it. I'd say sell it and buy something that can be your own cherished piece that you can pass down.

>>12904328
>>12904331
I have the 035, love it. Super versatile. In my opinion, the 035 looks better on the bracelet and the 033 looks better on leather. desu I sort of regret not getting the 033 instead but it's all good, they're both awesome.

>Tag Heuer Monaco

Too pricy - any experiences?

Found this in another thread. Any ID?

>>12906906
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikxKBQtFz3I

>>12906906
I like old heuer models, so the only good tag is when they just copy paste something from the past. Modern tag is such a fucking joke, atrocious looking watches.

>>12906913
sarb035

>>12907043
i forgot to add, the sarb line is honestly the best watches sub 400 that you can buy. amazing finishing on them and some 6r movements that knock everything else out of the water at that price point. Only thing i dont like is its a bit chunky and has lume on a dressy watch

>>12906557
I plan on getting the 033, I'll probably regret not getting the 035 lol. But I want to wear it with a strap so... Can't wait for it

>>12907133
nah black is faaar more versitile. The white dials stick out a fair bit.

>>12907150
Awesome ty good to hear.

>>12907165
yeah i owned a 035 and then returned it for the 033. Its much more of a cream color than youd expect which imo doesnt look good in dressy situations. A lot of the stock photos make it look very white but it is usually sorta eggshell white and it some lights its almost an eggnog cream color which i couldnt stand.
the deep black with nice polished steel indecies has a nice depth to the look at is very legible. plus the white lume markers with black dial is decent looking for lume on a de
ressy watch.

>>12900666
you go spearfishing? How do you get started?
I've always wanted to try but never had the chance to.

>>12907205
It's a matter of taste I guess. I also see a lot of people on leddit preferring the 035 over 033.

Just here thinking that i have to recommend the Visodate. Most professional looking business watch i own, and for only about 400€. So great value.

I only have an f-91w. I'm thinking of getting a decent watch. But I don't know what the fuck to buy. I don't want it to be very expensive, maybe US$100 at most. Any suggestions? Also, what's good about mechanical watches? Quartz seems better.

>>12907599
Nothing wrong with quartz, only it has not mechanical "beauty". For the price you want and for a first "dressy" watch i would go for a Casio Edifice quartz. Keep it simple and clean.

If you want a entry level good mechanic try Seiko 5 series or Orient Mako.

>>12907599
Citizen eco drives are by far the best value for a low priced quartz. no question.
There are a million of them out there on amazon.

>>12907662
Truth, but are slightly more expensive than casio edifices obviously.

Browsed ebay for casio edifice and citizen eco drive. Fucking ugly big ass watches both of them.

Thoughts on buying super cheap watches on aliexpress.com?

How do you know whether a watch has perpetual calendar? For most watches there's no info on the page. Fuck having to worry about 30 vs 31 days every fucking month, then I'd rather have no date window at all or a digital-analog combo watch.

>>12907824
I'm thinking of purchasing this:
https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Top-Brand-WWOOR-8805-Watches-Men-Fashion-Casual-Top-Brand-Luxury-Business-Full-Steel-Waterproof-Quartz/1331124_32630272535.html?spm=2114.12010612.0.0.274ff92dzmq8ih

Proper air king

>>12907885
In the manufacturer page. If it says nothing about, it has not the feature (except digital watches that obviously have it).

Why are 99% of men's watches so fucking big these days? Not all men are Arnold Schwarzenegger. It just looks fucking ridiculous. All men's watches are 40 mm+ when 35 mm looks better on at least my wrist. I'm pretty sure skinny guys make up more than 1% of the men.

>>12908816
because it's not a tool anymore, so it doesn't have to be discrete.

>>12908817
It is for me. Plus it looks better when it's discrete. Big watches make you look like a clown.

>>12908819
I use it as a tool too, but that doesn't mean they are not outdated as tools. And I don't like watches bigger than 40mm, and better if they are not thicker than 10mm, so I can only buy vintage watches, with a few exceptions.

How does /fa/ feel about MVMT?

>>12908909
DW tier.

>>12908909
step above china but that isnt saying much. Theyre a rip off.

>>12908927
vintage looks like shit though, scratches and shit, fuck that.

>>12909138
You can send them to the manufacturer for restoration. Any swiss brand will do ot and return it in mint condition.

>all these stupid rolex fanboys trying to make fun of omega when they have no clue.
Have fun overpaying for your shit

>>12909359
wololol at that picture.

I'm really fucking tempted by this. Price range was something 400ish$. What do you suggest? Not an urgent thing as I got an orient bambino which I love.

Tissot had a nice model too

dick is diamonds

>>12907588
>>12909513
I like the Visodate better.

>>12909513
>>12909520
It's good, you should get it

>>12909513
Why jump from one cheap oversized dress watch to another? Eventually you'll spend enough money on cheap watches that you couldn't bought one really good one instead. I guess the cocktail time isn't awful or anything, get it if you like it. There's also some brand new models in that same line coming soon which you might want to check out.

>>12909701
> Eventually you'll spend enough money on cheap watches that you couldn't bought one really good one instead.
Words of wisdom. Phuck me dead.

Thinking about buying this GA-110, thoughts?

$7.88 Walmart FMDPU005
Was stainless steel finish, but that has since worn away, and now it’s copper.
It’s lasted me about 6 months. Second hand just broke, but I never used that anyways.

>>12899870

>>12910054
I've got a GA-200RG that I'm looking to sell if u want

Are there any watches with a similar look to this one? Preferably more contrast/legibility and also smaller, maybe about 35 mm or so instead of 41 mm which this one is.
https://www.gearbest.com/men-s-watches/pp_927451.html

>>12910325
Found out it's available in this color, which is more legible. But still same big size.

>>12910332
SNKK93

>>12910348
Looks nice but I still don't get the point of having a mechanical watch.

>>12911279
gtfo.

>>12911282
what is the point then?

Does anybody have any experience with these watches?
Looks nice to me but I want to know if its legit or garbage

>>12911345
Not him, but it’s mostly about the appeal of having a tiny, highly engineered bit of machinery on your wrist. Watches are not just used as tools, but also as pieces of jewelry. It’s nice to wind or adjust the watch, maybe see the movement through the caseback etc.

On a practical level quartz is definitely better, it’s cheaper, more accurate and allows for lighter, thinner watches. It does however require maintenance somewhat more often (as well as having a shit resale price ofc)

Anyways, nothing wrong with going with a high end quartz movement if you feel that you need the accuracy, many higher end watchmakers have some quartz watches with a very high accuracy of less than 10 seconds per year.

Alternatively go with a spring drive watch, which combines the two. It has a high accuracy due to using a quartz crystal, but a mechanical movement and does not require batteries.

>>12911468
They're garbage, but at least they're not terribly overpriced garbage.

What is the watch you'd get if you had the money for it one day?

>>12911810
Maybe the white gold.

>>12909701
Well, it's all about the monies. Even I consider that dumping like 35% of a monthly wage into a fucking watch is borderline retarded. And to be honest I didnt have a look at more expensive pieces, except some junghans. I like the look of the cocktail, looks so pure.

I'm also very tempted to get a chinese DW like for 10$ and see if I'm getting more looks than my bambino (pic related) but I digress

>>12911918
Why would you wear a DW (and fake!) owning a nice Bambino?

>>12911936
I had my first boner on watches when looking at DW's. I'd get a fake one just for the look of it. Also, I could wear it at work and not worry about scratches.
I wanted to get a real one at the beginning and then I learned about the thing being overpriced as fuck.

>>12900574
Speedmaster

>>12900595
Take a link or two out, but otherwise looks good my mang.

this is a rep. Should I buy it?

>>12912105
No.

How much?

>>12912105
i know rolex decently well and can call that out on sight. Most people will be more than fooled tho.
Depends how much? below 150?

>>12912105
thats a meaty paw

>>12912172
What are the obvious signs? I have trouble pointing at anything definitively from this single photo. I guess the bezel doesn't look right, it seems more rounded and less shiny which I guess it would be since it's not gold.

Do any of you wear a nice watch to attract women? Do women care what watch you wear? Maybe it's part of the whole package, decent haircut, clothes and shoes? I only have an f-91w. Don't know if it's hurting my chances with women. I don't give a fuck what watch a woman wears but maybe they do?

>>12912472
just get a small cheap dressy quartz watch. women dont really care at all. unless they are black widows that are looking to steal nice watches.

>>12912491
If they don't care at all then why are you telling me I should get a small cheap dressy quartz watch?

>>12912494
they dont care about the specifics. A dressy watch is just a small part of the bigger picture. even most women ive come across hate those big invicta and gshocks.
small quartz dress watch is just cheap and works good for pretty much anything. thats why.

>>12912472
Woman here, digitals are for little boys. Just wear a discrete analog watch, doesn't matter if it's quartz, automatic, whatever.

>>12912530
Did I ask for women's opinion? No I didn't. I was asking men about women, you fuckface. I swear I'm gonna wear digital just because you don't like it. Suck my dick bitch.

>>12904058

>>12911810
Something from the Lange 1815 line for me. Also >>12903301 a Jaeger Reverso, ideallyw ith a custom emaille caseback

>>12911811
Good choice, the yellow gold version is one of the nicest dining watch designs imo. Also not that unrealistically expensive, if you have a good salary you can definitely save up for it.

>>12912661
The only acceptable zeitwerk is the minute repeater.

Honestly with a zeitwerk - what are you trying to say? They're fairly large and out of proportion. Too big and busy for formal events, too brilliantly finished for casual. An 1815 or 1 would be preferred.

Other digitals are also right out.

>>12912684
Yeah it was just a joke about the comment I was replying to. I actually very much like the 1815 as well, e.g. the one in >>12912653, or one of the smaller models as this one is also already quite large.

The Lange 1 always looked a bit odd to me on its own, although it does look much better actually on the wrist. Plus it’s actually a civil size, not as enormous as the other Lange watches

>>12911810
ref. 2550, or a Tank Cintrée

>>12912712
Plus they actually make ladies watches with real movements in them.

>>12912731

Watch from 5:10 or so, on the topic of women and Lange, pretty entertaining

Recommend me a watch to go with my new shoes. I'll be wearing it with tweed jackets mostly.

>>12912870
Price range?

>>12912885

Up to €200

>>12912659
I didn't say women are stupid. You are stupid though. I said women's opinion on men's issues isn't interesting. Doesn't mean women aren't useful for cooking and some other things.

>hey i have a question about what women think
>women: heres what i think
>FUCK YOU DID I ASK YOU CUNT??
woooooooooo lad. You must be autistic. Doesn't matter what watch you wear when youre 250lbs and have acne all over.

Just get some vintage shitter, it’ll work with the tweed.

>>12912172
No you cant. And def not when someone is wearing it. I would ads gen parts anyway
>>12912369
The original bezel isnt gold either, you are making this up.

Guess again and if you guess wrong Ill tell what the tell signs are

>>12912172
Does that look like a 150 dollar watch to you?
>Smh

>>12913331
All fluted bezels on current production Rolex models are yellow or white gold. So are the hands and indices.

>>12913395
That can be, but then again its still the 116234 not a new model. So a steel bezel doesnt tell its not a genuine.

>>12907211
Buy a Sea Sniper 72", a Hex wetsuit, and DiveR Carbon fins if you want to be like >>12900666
and wear a fucking Rolex while doing an extreme sport.

For those of us that don't wear our /fa/ accessories when doing extreme sports or who don't have thousands to drop on a dangerous hobby you might suck at or hate...learn how to dive and buy some starter equipment, then buy a starter speargun/sling/polespear. Then upgrade as you start killing fish.

What’s a poorfag version of this?

>>12913748
What even is that

>>12913823
No clue, just saw it on twilight zone.

>tfw tiny wrists

would be a 42mm watch be too big?
what about 40? still too big?

>>12913911
What is tiny? And are they round or flat?

My wrists are 6.5" and the largest I can pull off (subjective) is 42mm. My wrists are pretty flat, which allows me to wear larger watches than a round-wristed 6.5 incher could.

>>12903140
TAG strikes again

>>12913938
flat, theyre like rectangles.

full skely mode

>>12913951
Lol

who /saving for a speedy/ here?

>>12901233
What do you call a watch that does a whole year like this?

>>12901233
>>12913993
Do you have to fix it up each month?

>>12913993

>>12913999
Ty anon!

>>12913065
no joke. i walked in look around and just pick a watch without trying them on. worst purchase ever they are too big for me, and the metal clasp kinda dig into my skin due to its weight.

>>12913631

but how do you know where to go and how to spear the fish?

>>12915299
>>12915305
clearly I have too many Breitlings

>>12900669
>>12900669

Probably not worth as much as you think

>>12915299
>lume colored white
hmmmmm. Nice breitling! too bad breitling made an error in the fsctory and made yours just like a fake.

Little flighty

>>>>>>>RWI is that way

>>12915380

RWI?

>>12904232
Is that the Ludwig?

Considering pic related as my first dress watch. I know it's cheap, but is it a good watch for the price?

On a second note, does anyone know of <$1000 dress watches with blued hands that they could recommend?

>>12915762
Orion, don’t know which one

>>12915775
Thats great value.

For what you want i think Longiness and Hamilton have things that may suit you but i doubt the price. Also the Tissot pic related looks great but was a limited edition.

>>12913951
its spiderman!

>>12915775
$1000 is a bit of an awkwards value. There’s lots around $300-500 and around $1600-2100, but inbetween is not a typical price point for watches.

Imo it would be best to get the Orient, use it for a few years and save up a little on the side and then get a $1500-2000 watch that you actually really like

As >>12916823 said, Hamilton and Longines would be the ibvious choices there

Need to get a timepiece for a facility where smartphones are banned. I've had watches before, but I usually wind up never actually wearing them. Kinda thinking about going with a pocket watch; anything to look out for?

Are Molniya watches slavshit or actually worth wearing? I’m not entirely concerned with accuracy of time keeping, I care more about the materials/movement/appearance

>>12917102
Pocket watches aren’t anywhere near as practical as wristwatches. Why didn’t you wear your previous watches? That might be a good start to finding something that you would wear

>>12916823
>>12916903
Thanks, I think I'll go for the Orient

>>12917153
I just don't like having shit bound around my wrists. I like the idea of watches for fashion in theory, but I can't wear them for more than a couple weeks before I'm sick of having it on

>>12917387
Try a light watch on a leather strap, maybe you can tolerate that. In my experience it’s only annoying occasionally when I wear ahort sleeves, when wearing long sleeves I often even forget I’m even wearing a watch

Alternatively you can just put the strap of you wristwatch around your belt or otherwise affix it there, maybe that’ll work. A full on pocketwatch would probably come across as being really autistic

>>12911810

>>12901171
wut?

>>12917451
yeah, I don't mind a pocket watch in itself, but I'm having a hard time imagining how to wear one without being known as the Conductor.

Leather straps are worse than metal ones for me if anything. My last watch wasn't very large, but maybe something lighter would help. Kinda considering just getting a timex with NATO strap, but I think the watch face is what irritates me more than anything.

>>12918108
Consider a swatch skin.

>>12918189
Where in the hell can I find this? it's single-handedly the best thing I've ever seen.

>>12918549
There's a bunch on eBay right now

>>12913331
Yes the original bezel is WG you cheap fuck. Stick to a nice Daniel Wellington.

>>12913951
Terrible. Get a 36mm DJ or Explorer I or a 38.5mm Aqua Terra.

>>12908411
Love the wear and tear on it, can tell its worn well.

>>12906479
Yes it's a real watch. HE valve placement is correct, bezel is genuine, bracelet genuine etc etc.This particular used model are reasonably cheap nowadays, Don't know why you would think its a fake.

>>12905587
Very nice pair.

>>12905058
Who is this guy?

>>12918770
the pontiff, you phucker.

>>12918108
Well at the end of the day you just have to get used to wearing a watch, even if it takes some time.

I’ve got pic related, which weighs 68 grams according to the Tissot website, so it’s very light. I have had other watches before that which were much more unpleasant to wear even though they were even lighter. Especially rubber straps usually feel unpleasant to me, or having plastic or other non-natural materials on my skin all day. Just plain steel and leather feels fine though

>>12918774
This has clarified everything.

Anyone know where to get Seiko 5s in the UK?
I'm fine with buying online (of course, I'm a social spastic so I'd prefer this method) but I know there's a few watch shops in Leeds.

I should buy a Speedmaster Professional 3570.50 right? I have a two tone Rolex Datejust, a titanium Panerai Luminor, and a Cartier LC XL. I'm only missing a stainless steel watch. It's between a speedy or a Rolex sub or explorer, but I don't feel good about spending so much money on something so generic. A chronograph is interesting even if I'll never use it. Anyone have one? I have a cheap Seiko 5 SKX or SNK or some shit that looks like a sub anyway.

>>12919078
it's a 14,3mm case. Think about it.

>>12919080
That's no problem. My Panerai is almost 16 mil thick.

>>12919107
then go ahead.

>>12918715
>>12906502
>looks real to me! hurr durr!

>>12919153
lol exactly. IDK how people dont instanly see the lume pip. Dead giveaway imo. and also the swiss made text is all fuck up, but if someone on here REALLY wants to believe its real they could i guess.

>my $300 seiko samurai has a smoother bezel than my ~$3500 seamaster
Why

Just getting into analogs from digitals.
Cheap ebay find $12.51 with shipping

Feel free to continue thinking your "mate's" shitty 20 year quartz watch is worth faking. I bet you both wear Squale

>>12919353
holy fuck bro, did a Rolex fuck your girlfriend?

>>12919353
please feel free to look up the model they are faking. Youre an idiot. Omega QC is bad but it isnt so bad to fuck up the LUME PIP.
lol

>>12919353
what are you talking about? its a very commonly faked watch.
Plus i really hope you realize they printed the Quartz virsion on the dial of the automatic one..... That's sort of a dead give away. What are you getting so angry about? It's a fake so who cares....

>>12918715
No you dumb fuck look on chrono24 genuime rolex have steel bezels as well. You clearly dont know shit

>>12918715
>white gold
No its not moron. Its their rolex steel...
>its a real watch
No its not moron. It's clearly a fake....

>>12919180
because omega is a sham of a company these days and they only make meme movements and overpriced watches with finishing worse than GS while being thousands of doars more.
The samurai is a really good steal of a watch.looks great on that nato imo.

>>12919838
>>12920044
116234 has a white gold bezel. I would expect nothing less of broke bitches who wear fakes.

>>12919697
I've owned 4 SMPs and over a dozen Omega watches.

>>12919712
I don't see what you're saying about the dial, its the quartz version, hence the lack of chronometer.

>>12920070
What are you going on about? why are you defending a bad fake watch? did you even take two seconds to look at the lume pip?

>>12920070
please learn to read. i said the QUARTZ version is printed on the AUTOMATIC DIAL.
Go compair and contrast them. Im sure you own toooons of expensive watches and thay gives you loads of clout on the subject.
this is your last ((((you)))) ill feed you.

Bought this instead of a grand seiko and decided to put the left over money towards a root beer gmt for next year. Love a good vintage chrono.

What watches attract women's attention?

>>12920198
More clout than you I suppose. The other poster has already said it's the quartz version, so I don't know why you're bringing up the auto model

>>12920315
Not him but im pretty sure that's not what he was arguing about. Look at the date window of the two models.
I havn't responded to this nonsense untill now because it feels like obvious bait but please stop crapping up the thread with this. You seem quite clearly wrong.

>>12920278
it's all about the wrist, nigga
thick, veiny, hairy wrist, with a fairly good looking watch, youre set.
if you have wrists like >>12913951
I'm sorry.

>>12920315
Did you even read what i wrote? Youre insane dude. W/e... stay delusional.

>>12920278
women really dont care at all whats on your wrist. Just get a decently sized dress watch that fits your outfits and be done with trying to attract women. Overall physique matters much more
