get a NATO strap yellow leather looks weird. I like the watch itself tho

Ok brand name aside what are the sort of watches that women will find attractive?

Why does your hand look like a whole wheat dinner roll

Go buy a Rolex. Immediately when they read that on your dial they're gonna cum in their panties.

Stop this NATO crazyness!! That watch looks its best with a brown leather strap. That green and gold fial, that classic hands... doesnt match with a NATO at all.

R8 and what do you think the model is ? They advised it as a presage model but it looks more like a cocktail time to me, 6r15 cal and everything

>>13022007
Seiko SRPB43 Presage Automatic.

Your Google Fu es not good.

Got an orange pylon with my dirt bike. vibrant but does the trick I guess

>>13022032

But I thought the SRPB43 and the likes had a 4r15 caliber ? Also, the crown looks different. Clearly says 6r15c on the back of it.

Even though a thread on watchuseek talks about a discontinued line of presage, is that right?
Although a thread

I have been trying to get my hands on it for a year and a half. Finally mine !

>>13019187
maybe a gym membership would have been a better investment

Dont you think that more important than the watch by itself is for it to match your lifestyle? There are not as much wrong watches (dont get me wrong, there are horrible watches that nobody should wear ever) as people wearing the wrong watch...

>1960 Tudor Oyster
Pic is a couple of years old. Had this thing serviced since then, and no, I don't wear beads anymore. Pls no bully. Can post better/more up to date pics if anyone gives a shit. Will post a picture of my Air-King-Date and Oysterdate as well to contribute a bit to the thread.

>>13026172
>>13026172

I'd like to see your air king and oysterdate. I think if I was going to get a vintage Tudor it would be either a sub or a big block.

Posting as a follow-up to >>13026172

>>13026183
Air-King is my favourite, not gonna' lie. Was my first Rolex, so I kinda' have a soft-spot for it. Only have my receipts + guarantee from when I bought it though, so it's lacking paperwork. Think the year is 1973 on this one, but I'd need to check.

As for vintage Tudors; I'd recommend mini-subs if you're a spoopy skellington, or a vintage Tudor Advisor if you want something a bit more unique. They're pretty rad.

>>13026216
>>13026216

pretty nice air king, you ever thought of doing a full polish/ semi-restore? Or do you like to keep things original?

I've thought about the mini sub but I feel like it will be too small.

>>13026216
Oysterdate two-tone with diamonds on the hour markers. File name related :^).

Picked it up last week. It's from the mid-80's, and it comes with all of its paperwork. Still need to have a lot of links taken out of this one for my bitchwrists. Belonged to bredithiccboi before I got my hands on it it seems.

>>13026216
fucking lmfao, why even wear beads if they are unmatched and disperse

>>13026232
Thanks Anon, n' I'm a bit torn on the restoration thing. I had my Tudor polished, and I kinda feels like I took a bit of its charm away. Will post a pic of it from recently next if you want. Will definitely have the crystal replaced in my AKD at some stage though. It's getting a bit hard to see the time on it thanks to all of the fucking scratches at this stage.

Totally get it on the mini-sub as well, small watches ain't for everyone. Post some pics of what you're on about getting, I fucking love divers, but my wrists are just 2smol.

>>13019744

>>13029361
Like I said I dont know a lot about watches. I just saw that this was the most expensive sold. What is the greatest then?

JUSTIFY NOT OWNING A TIMEX EASY READER FOR EACH DAY OF THE WEEK AND A TIMEX EXPEDITION FOR THE WEEKENDS OR KILL YOURSELVES NOW

>>13029380

Where? at your local pawn shop.

There is no greatest "watch" ever made as there is no greatest car ever made. Rolex is the ultimate pleb watch for sure. But really horologically relevant brands like Audemars Piguet, Patek Philllipe, Vacheron Constantin, Jeager leCoultre, Breguet, A.lange & Sonne just blow out everything rolex ever made. Arguably, even Grand Seikos are better than rolexes. And there are independent watchmakers which make watches with your own name on it. F.P.Journe is widely considered the best watchmaker in the world currently living. His cheapest watch is double the Daytona.

Here's a rough classification of watch brands: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Td43xUuT34


Again, there is no clear winner, especialy since you have to take into consideration individual models within a brand. Rolexes are good in their own way but I would be dead before I buy one, mainly because I can buy 2 Jeager leCoultre for the price of one Rolex and jlc is the most established movement maker in the world.


Why is there even a watch thread on /fa/ . There is already one on /g/ where people know what they talking about

>>13019187
Inheritance. My christmas present was getting it refurbished. Now people dont buy it when I tell them it's from 1977

>>13029476
Forgot pic

>>13029218
Those Daytonas are the most overrated shit ever, they're just hyped because they're rare and Paul Newman wore one. And they're only rare because they weren't popular at the time because they're totally unremarkable. I like Rolex and all, but the collector market for them is retarded.

Why doesn't /fa/ ever post smart watches?

guys please give me some feed back on this watch

>>13029599
ugly

>>13019770
I had a F91-w with the green trim for 3 years. Loved it though the light sucks. I started lifting a couple years ago so my wrists got too thick for it. Just upgraded to this bad boy with a negative display. I normally hate G-shocks for being so loud, but this watch is really subtle. Also solar

>>13029590
How does this watch fit for 6.5 inch wristlets like me? I've always wanted one of these just for the heck of it, or maybe as a gift for my math professor.

>>13029599
Tries to look like a cool racing watch, fails. PT Cruiser territory with this one.
Imo square shape with circular clock ruins it, along with stripes that make no sense. Ideally they would go around a bezel.

>>13019649
why are you disrespecting the omega with that awful awful band

Honest question:

Why spend a fortune on a watch that can only read the time, is less accurate than a Chinese corner store quartz watch for 10 bucks or any cell phone, stops functioning when laying dormant for a while, doesn't have a built in light so it can't be read in the dark and (again) costs a fortune to service regularly?

It seems irrational to me to spend a lot of money on an objectively inferior product that continually costs you money and are based on ancient mechanics.

>>13029768
because they look pretty and you can impress your peers and women

>>13029768
Watches is a game for big boys with big boy money (and big boy autism). It’s beyond your comprehension

Been browsing old swiss brands.

What do you think of this one, /fa/?

Surprisingly hard to find steel mechanicals from the '60s, at least in my price range. Most are gold plated, and it doesn't seem to make much difference to the price. Is gold acceptable for a vaguely preppy young man to wear?

>>13029768
Mechanicals retain their value, so they have a pretty enduring appeal, whatever that appeal may be. It's not a fad.

>>13029218
>>13029446
The PN Daytona was only sold for 15 million because it had PN splooge all over it.

I couldn't consider Vach or Breguet relevant. Rolex is solid, but at the 5-15K level there are arguable better watches, but Rolex designs are timeless and recognizable. If I has a 10K watch budget I'd buy a Jeager or Grand Seiko.

Rolex's golden age was the 60's-70's you really won't find much difference in their watches since then. Buying a used Rolex from a reputable jeweler is probably the best way to buy a Rolex imo. Just be careful.

>>13028888
Oh fuck my sides

>>13029768
>>13029768

for me I don't wear any type of jewelry so I wear a watch. Also it helps with my work give me an icebreaker if I notice someone wearing a nice watch.

>>13029776
>Mechanicals retain their value
That is factually untrue. Please do not invest your money in wrist watches. You always lose money this way.

>>13029853
I said retain value, not rise in value. An investment is supposed to rise; watches are for the most part just easily resellable chattels.

>>13029446
>relevant brands
>vacheron
vacheron hasn't been relevant since the 1950's.
they're basically just re-badged jaegers nowadays anyway, under the richemont umbrella

>>13019187
I have a cheap Invicta I got off Amazon a few years back. The watch strap is on the brink of falling off and it has a scratched face. I'll keep using it until I absolutely wreck it, like my old CASIO, which I replaced the strap on twice and the battery once before I killed it with saltwater through a cracked face, and the one before that, which I smashed the face in and ruined the mechanism controlling the hands falling from a horse after a dozen years and three battery changes.

i came to a point in my life when i can afford a nice tissot for 600eur, but now i'm depressed because i can't afford a tag heuer for 5k

when does it end guys?

>>13029853
I actually own two watches that have increased their price since i bough them, and one of them i bough it new (with a discount).

>>13030211
Tag Huehuehue is a bad value meme brand. You are much better off with the Tissot, which is at least much less of a scam.

When you save 5000€ for a watch you should be looking for something truly in the luxury tier. Tag is just below that excepting maybe some particular model.

>>13019187
I have never losted to OP in my entire life.

Until now.

What are some durable, nice quality watches for 300-600? Preferably with roman numerals and a metal band. I'm shopping for my bf, but thats as much as i could get out of him as far as what he likes. I don't really know much about watches, I personally own a few skagens which suit me just fine. He isn't the fussy type, so im not sure he would enjoy all of the bells and whistles. Probably just quartz? Am i making the wrong decision by going with quartz? I feel like im overthinking this.

>>13030248

here's a good list:
https://www.watchreviewblog.com/best-affordable-watches-roman-numerals/


The same watch can come in different bracelets and you can buy a bracelet individualy. here's a good choice I found on chrono24: https://www.chrono24.co.uk/tissot/le-locle--powermatic-80--id3800260.htm

>>13030211

Tag is a shitty brand that lives only on the advertising. At 2-4K euro you can get a great omega or jaeger lecoultre

>>13019770
Is this a "cheap" watch?

>>13019187

Nice pasta

>>13029770
No one will be impressed. Especially women. Watches are just jewelry men can wear without fear of being emasculated. You wear a watch because you like it not because of anything else.

Wife bought me this for Christmas

>>13029768
To me it's about the craftsmanship. You're right that a cheap quartz watch is more accurate than even the most expensive mechanical watches, but to me, for a watchmaker to design something purely mechanical which can tell the time accurately and last for years requires such a high level of precision and intelligent engineering. They also look pretty

fatties wre the higgest betas known to man.

I need to buy a better looking watch than my f-91w. Not sure whether I missed any second dates due to wearing that, but who knows, it's a little worn and dirty too. But I don't know what watch to fucking buy. What watch is the best chick magnet? The more expensive the better? I'm trying to start making a better impression, from a guy with one pair of jeans and one black hoodie all the time, and f-91w, I'm trying to get into fashion a bit. But this whole thing fucking irritates me for some reason. If a woman told me what watches she'd like men to wear I'd tell her to fuck off. Maybe I should instead just ask, and ask men only, what is a good watch? I've been browsing the web for fucking months and I can't make up my mind.

>>13032671
Money money money, you can't ask for a watch recommendation without talking dough.
What's your budget?

>>13032673
I don't even know. What do you have to pay to get something decent? At first I was thinking about 50 usd, then I thought maybe you need to pay around 100 to get a decent watch. Then I was thinking maybe I should go up even to 200. But the thing is it seems a bit annoying to me to have to worry about it being stolen or damaged etc. Plus my car only cost about 700 usd and I only have about 15,000 usd in the bank so it seems ridiculous to own a watch for like 500 usd, plus I'm not sure I like the idea of that anyway.

>>13032688
Don't be that guy who buys an expensive or fake nice watch with a shit car

You were right about the F91W killing your dates btw, it's better to wear nothing than that. It just screams poorfag/terrorist

>>13029704
>started lifting a couple years ago so my wrists got too thick
wrists don't get bigger with lifting dumbass

>>13019770
I think there is something beautiful about a watch being perfectly functional for the price of 3 cups of coffee.

Can only people with big wrists wear bracelet watches comfortably? I had a Seiko bracelet watch years ago and I remember it was uncomfortable as fuck. I have skinny wrists. I'm thinking I'll buy a watch with leather or rubber strap this time.

>>13032671
>not getting a second date because of a watch
You really are beyond saving

>>13032671
Get a dive watch. Women love those.
The f 91w is kinda autism tier if youre not a /k/ommando, so just don't wear it.

>>13032688
You can never go wrong with a Seiko 5. Just look it up on amazon or something and select your favorite, they're very modestly priced, too. This one's my favorite.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006ITF2H8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_DeDsAb8ZC9PS5

>>13029479
Oh hey there

>>13032688
Get any Seiko 5, Vostok, timex or Casio.

Or ya know, just keep your f91 and focus on more important things since the watch you wear has negligible effect on getting dates you dummy

>>13025590
>>13025594

>>13029755
>Tries to look like a cool racing watch, fails.
You realize that's a re-make of one of the most iconic racing chronographs of all time, right?

>>13019770
I've worn this nearly every day for about 5 years and its still going strong. Got it for something like £8 on amazon lol

>>13019921
>I have tiny little bitch wrists
Fixed that for ya

I got this Revue Thommen for an absolute steal, its RRP is 1k and I paid 350.

However, I don't think it has the kind of prestige I'm looking for. I want a nice Swiss automatic watch from a brand that is more recognizable but doesn't cost as much as an Omega. Not because I can't afford it, but because I just don't want to drop that much money personally.

I was thinking Longines?

>>13021791
They are everywhere on eBay. I bought mine, wore it for a bit and then sold it for more than I payed for it back on eBay.

>>13032831
But I have skinny wrists so not sure it looks good. Plus my dad always wears a dive watch and I hate him so not sure I want it.

>Wearing expensive, large watches

I have this watch. Love it but the backlight is weak as fuck.

>>13028888

>>13022007
If it says "Automatic" it's a Cocktail Time, the Presage version says Presage instead of Automatic

Mechanical or quartz? Dress or dive?

What's better, flat or bulging glass? (I guess it's called crystal)

>>13033937
That's actually really neat, do you have a reference?

coming from someone who knows absolutely nothing about watches, are Vincero watches bad? laughable?

>>13033958
Its a Russian ccp watch. Its Automatic and you can find them for about 100 euros

Anyone own an HMT Kohinoor? I kind of like the retro look

I bought the Tissot tradition. Not an expensive watch but looks nice and plain. Happy with it for the price range.

>>13034104
>quartz

Shitty lighting and phone, but hey.

>>13033149

Most of their modern watches are utter shit. Their Heritage line is pretty nice. Buy them second hand, because it will save you almost half.
Vintage stuff can be had for a steal still if you look hard enough and know about what you want. If you care a lot about it being 100% authentic (no redials and such) you'll be looking for a while, but the hunt is half the fun.

>>13033312

Very nice.

>>13031024

Much better. It can be on a nato, but not with that horrible zulu hardware.

>>13029773

Sure it is. I prefer steel, but gold is good.

>>13029479

Noice.

>>13029218

No, but it has changed the way people collect sports watches. And their perceived value, of course.

>>13026269

Not a fan of the bezel, but good stuff. And will probably be worth more in the future if you take care of it.

>>13029704

>I normally hate G-shocks for being so loud, but this watch is really subtle.

You doofus, that watch is about as subtle as Liberace wearing an optical white sequin-encrusted leisure suit fitted with enormous angel wings, loudly grunting and ass-raping Siegfried and Roy AND Freddy Mercury all at the same time while their fucking Mongolian snow tiger looks on in boredom. The F91-W is way, WAY better than that gaudy monstrosity

>>13019900
I wonder, is there any way to remove the "Timex" and "Indiglo" from beneath the crystal? I'm assuming Timex doesn't make ANYTHING w/out their fucking name all over it?

What watch would a concert pianist or violinist wear? What would a composer wear?

>>13034564
>What watch would a concert pianist or violinist wear?

Most likely leather strap to minimise the chance of metal hitting off something and making noise

>What would a composer wear?

Something cheap unless they're Hans zimmer

>>13034586
>something cheap
lol. Why?

>>13034600
Only the top 5% or so of composers make any more than the average joe. In fact, many barely scrape by even with second jobs playing and teaching

As for the watch itself, something extremely middle-brow.

No, I'm not kidding. Most classical musicians are middle-brow. They think black dress shirts look good, when they only look like an awkward compromise between formal and casual, i.e. they look middle-brow.

This reflects their most usual origin in upwardly mobile middle class families that only have a vague and perfunctory idea of what good taste is. Sending their children to piano lessons is often more of a social gesture than a sign of musical appreciation.

Accordingly, they would wear a quartz dress watch, most likely a Tissot. They are self-conscious enough to know not to wear a Rolex, because those are for brash and uncultured plebs, which they are not because they wear a black shirt and some rubber soled synthetic dress shoes.

They are still relatively short term thinkers, and as such don't consider buying a watch that can run on its own steam. Functionally, quartz watches are not inferior to mechanicals; but they symbolise short term thinking and lack of self-reliance. Living from battery to battery has a metaphorical resemblance to living from paycheck to paycheck, or in their case grant to grant.

>What would a composer wear?
Harder to say, because they are more eccentric and less anxious. Could be anything from a plastic Casio to a bare wrist to a Cartier Tank. They are unlikely to wear a diver's watch or something with a metal bracelent. Due to their ascetic lifestyles, gold is unlikely to show up, unless they are able and inclined to splash cash, as Mozart was.

My first Seiko 5, did I fuck up?

>>13034799
Nope, pretty solid choice for a 5. SKX is a better watch, but the urchin is still nice.

>>13034897
Thanks mate, already got the Seiko bug, I like the SKX too-- will get one soon!

>>13019282
Oh wow

>>13019187
by the looks of your hand, you must weigh 350+ lbs

How's this one? I don't usually wear watches, but I wanted something basic.

>>13035232

Not a very good piece, what is your budget?

>>13035252
It would be great if I can spend less than $100 bucks.

>>13035265

For that amount of money you could get this Seiko which is automatic and much better then the Casio.

>>13035232
I have that. The battery ran out pretty fast, guessing maybe 2 years max. Compared to f-91w, still have one I think I bought in 2010 or something, not sure, and it's still running. Bought a new f-91w though because the band cracked. Other than that I don't know a lot about it because I didn't wear it a lot. Very light weight and slim just like f-91w. It basically is like having an f-91w just easier to read the time because it's analog, if you think that's easier of course, but with less features.

How the fuck is your wrist so small? Are you fucking 5'4?

>>13034670
Was it no-date, would be my next daily watch. But as things are i think its going to be the new Tudor BB 41mm.

Mate, are you a bdaman or something? Top fucking kek

this is the pleb choice, true casio Übermensch have the W-86-1VQES. Same watch but better in every way and won't put you on a watchlist.

What's the point of buying expensive jewelry when you're fat as fuck?
You're fat, spend the money on something you can enjoy since anything spent on vanity is a waste

>>13019841
You spent all your money on watches and can't afford a table or something?

The swatches need some repairs.

I'm interested in buying some old Soviet watches. Anyone know where to look?

Bit of a long shot but I know nothing about watches so if anyone has a link to a list or any kind of recommendation that'd be cool. I like the look of these but I'm assuming they'd be out of my $300-400 price range

>>13037632

>>13038406
Swatch for beater? They are too easy to scratch or break. Pure plastic shit.

Thoughts? Don't really have that much nor want to invest too much in a watch, this is just in my price range and I'm looking for a simple gold plated watch

How the fuck do TAG Heuer justify charging thousands for rebranded ETA 2824 movements?

I still want to buy one but yeah, I'm being ripped off here

Love these high-end The Citizens

i got this one. What do you think?

Is this a good size watch for my wrist or is it on the small side? Its 36mm and I'm wondering how much bigger (if at all) I could go with my 6" faggot wrists. I figure I might be able to go 38mm depending on lug-to-lug size but don't know that I'd be able to go much further than that

What

>>13019841
meme watch, shit beer, shit food

are there sales for high-ish end timepieces like there are for other clothing items? I love this Sinn, but can't seem to pull the trigger for a 1.7K€ watch, although for a nice round 1 thousand I'd buy that immediately. Maybe look second-hand?

>>13035280
just for the love of god replace the strap with literally anything else

>>13039407
Where'd you cop that model? I can't find the silver model only the gold model.

>>13029768
Well this is a fashion meme board where people spend a fortune on shoes, pants, jackets, man thongs etc. and those items rarely last a lifetime. Watches are kinda the one totally accepted form of jewelry a guy can wear besides a wedding band. Also they are about expert craftsmanship almost to the extent of an art form. Add in the history and status and all that and they are appealing. Its something you can wear every day for your whole life. I understand if people arent interested but there are plenty of worse things to spend your money on. also most fine watches wont lose too much of your value over the years.

Thinking of buying this as a daily watch to go along with casual clothes. Good decision or no?

hello,
recommend me watches of a rounded rectangular shape please, i would like to have some, when i am rich.
circular are cool, but i would like to see some change.
thank youuu

>>13039614
You can look for sellers on watchrecon or chrono24. eBay and Yahoo jp auctions also are good places to look for certain wat he's but probably not Sinn.

>>13040059
Good enough watch on its own, but that cheap PVD black coating will wear off faster than your chances with a hot chick

>>13019282

My watch collection. I have more but yeah

>>13039422

There are also automatic The Citizens, namely NA0000-59B and E and CTY57-1271 and 2. The watch that I have is NA0000-59B and I just bought a black faced CTY57-1272 from Yahoo Auctions Japan. Better quality for the price than Grand Seiko, in my opinion.

>>13019848
gorgeous piece, great value, go for it, had one in the exact same color, looks great on a nato or steel bracelet too.

>>13025212
Do you know any security guards carrying h&k's around?

>>13028012
zf is probably one of the best replica makers for this watch, since not many people make them.

Let me tell you something, buy a real watch, I could tell, other people could tell, don't become a joke, you're not special.

>>13028316
doesn't look that bad, congrats, I hope you got pre-owned.

>>13029079
yes, the 14270 and 114270 are essentially the same thing with newer bracelet, improved movement, sapphire and glossy dial.

>>13029218
No, rolex is a really good brand, manual wind daytonas are good watches, but they are not worth what people are paying for them.
I have seen several, i wore them, including three or four paul newmans, I could name several other watches that are more interesting than a pn daytona and cost way less than it.

>>13030215
Maybe buy used? you can find many nice tags for a very small price, the aquaracer, f1 and link are good examples.

>>13030248
Probably a seiko, there are some models out there in this price range that people absolutely love, like the sarb033.

>>13030884
That's not fake, you idiot.

wwwwwwwww!

>>13039407
got it off an online store. there are 2 variants as far as I know: first is the one I have, and second is the same exterior but the inner rectangle with fonts on it is black. There are also some with blue colored maps, so easily there are at least 2-3 versions of this. Wish I knew earlier, honestly!

>>13040059
Why is a watchlets first choice always black?

>>13037847
You're starting with the right look.

Will Bond ever wear a Rolex again?

Looking for an inexpensive metal band watch. Any recs? I currently wear a Casio F91W. Thanks.

>>13041636
Hopefully not. And also i think he should stop wearing Planet Ocean huge flashy coloured stuff (gross with suits) and stick to more classy Seamaster 300m.

>>13042056
What does "inexpensive" mean to you? Casio´s bracelets are pretty awesome and they are as cheap as it gets.

>>13042056
As first proper watch? Orient Mako Ray.

>>13042061
$100-$200 probably.

>>13042077
That's very nice. I'll look around for prices.

>>13041636
Doubt it. Omega paid a lot of money for product placement deals and special edition watches to milk it for all it was worth. As far as I know, Rolex never even asked them to put their watches in the movie and they didn't pay for it. I also can't imagine Rolex debasing themselves with a special edition watch with a fancy box and 007 engraved all over the dial and shit.

Also funnily enough, apparently in the James Bond books he was described as wearing a Rolex but it was probably an Explorer and not a Sub.

Thoughts on Tag Heuer Monaco? Limited knowledge about watches but am into racing and that style so I think this is pretty cool.

>>13042056
Seiko SKX all the way, the orient mako is also a good choice but they tend to have more defects than the seiko.

Get a vintage one or one that just says Heuer on it.

>>13043737
Why would you even want a fake 5600? They cost near to nothing and a fake one would probably be shit quality wise.

>>13039407
This will be my next cop if my digital watch love does not pass.

Is seiko's hardlex noticeably better than the glass that orient uses on its three star watches?

>>13043764
There are Grand Seikos too. And many other cool quartzs.

Rolex is such a fucking tacky brand, jesus

I hate everything about it from the cyclops eye onwards

You couldn't pay me to wear that shit

>>13043754
Why does TAG get so much shit here, other than the marketing?

Have you ever held one? Their finish is superb, it's nothing shy of the other high end brands.

Unless you're a movement aficionado I don't get the hate.
