/fa/ - Fashion

Morning, lads.
Hope you don’t have s headache like mine.

I'm thinking of buying a rolex datejust 41, on a scale of 1-10 how much of a show-off watch do you guys think it is? I don't wanna come across as some tryhard but I really like the aesthetic of the watch and its versatility
yeah yeah I shouldn't care what other people think yada yada

>>13536002
God I hate cyclops.

pic not mine but damn I love my MK40

>>13536002
Why doesn't Rolex make larger dress watches for people who are not limp-wristed fags? The datejust 41 is only actually 39.5mm or so, how is someone supposed to wear that with an 8" wrist?

Also, what is the point of the date magnification, are Rolex customers fucking blind old men and cannot see without it? To top it all off, the version without this whole date bullshit, the oyster perpetual only comes at a 39mm version max...

Thanks for nothing Rolex, you successfully captured your target market, the 6" wrist half-blind middle-class chinese citizen who wants to show off his imaginary wealth.
Not even a display caseback, because we reeeeally need the 100m water resistance like the average client is gonna go deep sea diving every fucking weekend... fuck this brand

>>13536030
Go buy a Hublot.

Why would Rolex have a display caseback? There movements are not particularly finished as that's not their priority.

>>13536041
Enuj, yawn?

>>13536002
The cyclops is legit fucking ugly.

>>13536016
>>13536051
give me other watches in the same styling without the date window then

>>13536052
Rolex already makes watches with similiar styling without a date window, anon.

>>13536002
it should be called the dateJUST

>>13536052

>>13536056

Cocktail tiem.

>>13536053
>>13536061
eh fuck it I'm gonna save up for an overseas chronograph

>>13536002
Datejusts are so underwhelming irl. They literally look like $400.

At least get an engine turned bezel or something

>>13536070
Post said shitter pls

>>13536076

>>13536017
How smoll is that shit?

>>13536079
Jesus fucking Christ millennials are fucking retarded.

>>13536094
please explain

>>13536097
Your age range are like dumb.

>>13536101
1. Why do you think that I'm a millenial?
2. What would this have to do with the watch? You're saying that the Overseas is a bad purchase?

Terrorist watch coming through.

>>13536118
All your kindergarten will be terrorized.

From the previous thread, why is a Unitas 6498 a 'step down' from an ETA 2824?

>>13536094
>>13536101
>implying you aren't a millennial
underagefag or gramps detected

>>13536118
Thats the dork watch. F91W-1 is the terrorist watch, you pleb.

I was thinking of getting a vostok amphibia and modding it a bit like pic related.
I currently have a g-shock g5600e, seiko sarb017, explorer 14270 and a royal oak 14790 in my collection and they are all quite high quality watches with all the bells and whistles.
So my problem is would it be a waste of time for me to pick up a vostok and spend time modding it, would i end up disappointed because of the vostoks crappy movement?
Anybody here have vostok? Is it easy to cope with such a rudimentary movement???

Cop or not? Been thinking of copping this for a while but been too poor for much of anything, and it seems like a nicer watch than anything seiko makes that looks similar.

>>13536200
No
Get a Seiko 5 with similar look.

>>13536200
Don't listen to this fucking faggot >>13536206.

I wore that watch for 10 years and it was great. The Japanese quartz movements are excellent.

>>13536210
>I wore that watch for 10 years
Jesus fucking Christ.

>>13536217
What's wrong?

>>13536219
You’re fucking post

>>13536223

>>13536088
35 or 36mm if I remember correctly.

>>13536002
Date just look like $10 Walmart watches

>>13536206
I'm not really sure I'm into the winding aspect of it. Since I work at a grocery store still, I wouldn't want to wear it there, so it probably won't get too much wearing until I quit. I mean I can certainly get a seiko along the lines, but I think for a grab and go watch this is the best option.

>>13536210
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I've always liked the ecodrive ticking system, I think it's a pretty little cool timekeeper.

>>13536223
Retards like you are why /wt/ threads are fucking cancer.

The Citizen BM8180-03E is an excellent watch. The ED-E100 movement is accurate to within +/- 2s a month (I've checked). It's an made entirely Japan and in house by Citizen. Simple dial. Clean readable Arabic numerals. Day/date complication. All in a 37mm diameter case, a size that pretty much anyone can wear these days.

If you like mechanical watches, good for you. But don't shit on quartz watches. They're great too.

>>13536245
You don’t have to wind an automatic you just wear them.

If you go for s quartz just get any echo drive citizen of your choice.

>>13536250
The fuck is wrong with you?
Why so oppressed by nothing?

Who shat on quartz watches?

>>13536250
>The ED-E100 movement is accurate to within +/- 2s a month (I've checked).
> Not TC
explain more? That performance would be exceptional bordering on impossible unless restricted to a very regular thermal profile. No matter how good the watch, if they aren't using TC and are trying a standard 32khz xy-cut tuning fork crystal, the temperature response will be about the same.

>>13536230
Jesus nice

>>13536256
Don't the Seiko 5 only last ~48 hours? That's what I mean really, I just don't fancy having to shake around my watch to get it to start running, personally.

Meme inspo from THE NORTHERN PART OF THE MEDITERRANEAN COAST OF SPAIN

>>13536273
You just have to live and not think about it to wind it.

You clearly never had one.

>>13536287
kek I remember that thread.
Nice watch how ginger are you?

>>13536287
Landscape view for more accurate protrayal of
THE NORTHERN PART OF THE MEDITERRANEAN COAST OF SPAIN

>>13536179
the point of buying and modding a vostok is to have fun;
you may luck out on the vodka-movement lottery and get one that's somewhat accurate, but don't expect much and you won't be disappointed.

>>13536296
>I remember that thread.
It was two days ago, I would hope so

>SHITTERS ALLOWED

>>13536296
Very fucking ginger. Not radioactive-level though

>>13536316
Do you remember the one before that?
Yeah that’s what I thought, smug portuguese.

What can you tell me of pic related? Learned about its existance recently.

Is it any good? Would you wear it daily? Looks pretty practical to me.

>>13536329
Good for you, Conan.
Have a great day. That shore is awesome.

>>13536336
It has a lemania 5100 movement. Quite a few on wt consider that the best speedmaster movement ever on its technical merits (I'm not a chronograph collector so can't really speak to it personally, I'm sure canadanon will be here shortly to add more). It's a good watch.

From a USNO paper on timekeeping.

>>13536351
Im reading some articles about the 5100... looks good BUT has ¿plastic? (Nylon) main components in it... dunno...

>>13536353
>tfw no officially certified chronometer egg timer

>>13536329
Thanks, Im going to rable for a bit.

I hate beaches being the ginger that I am. However I had a bit of an epiphany taking LSD here two years ago. The strong winds, the waves clashing into volcabic rocks, the colorful feet after swimming in cold water. Such a dramatic place. Something felt really right and I didn't get it at first.

>>13536440
>>13536348
And then it hit me. It was like those old drawings and photos I saw of bauhaus students going to the beach. It was about nature and the man. The nudism in this place and the mundane activity of it all. Like crocodiles sunbathing near the river. Like japanese macaque in hot springs.
It's about pure bodily satisfaction.
After that I investigated more about the bauhaus project and ultimately resulted in me buying the Max Bill (for the purpose of this thread).

>>13536053
I want this watch but I dont like metal bracelets. What other bracelet would fit the grape dial ?

>>13536017
Nice pic

My slav shitter

>>13536496
could they have made it any more confusing?

What you boys been wearing today?

>>13536540
All fucking day

Tissot Visodate (white dial) vs Seiko SARB033 : which one should be my first non-Seiko 5 automatic? I know they are a dime a dozen online but I just like these two the best and I can't decide. I heard that the Visodate has awful handwinding thanks to the inherent weakness of that part in the 2824 (and thus, the 2836) caliber. It also looks just a hair too thick to fit under a shirt cuff on pictures. It's cheaper, though. Its movement is a few second more accurate and easier to service, too, I think.

>>13536496
How the fuck can they... nm

>>13536572
I’d say Seiko because my lesbian coworker was fucking all the time and not me (Tissot bitch)

>>13536440
>>13536458
Yeah salty water does that to you.
I hear you REDdit, went to Cuba a couple of years ago. I couldn’t get enough of them beaches.

R8 pls

I just don't get it.

I checked out a mall-tier watch store and 99.9% of the watches were just fucking bland. They feel like they were designed with Microsoft Word or something using free fonts. They have no interesting materials or colors or shapes. Also the cases are often too bulky. Some watches have a watchface that is supposed to look classy with like roman numerals and a serif font but then it's gigantic like a diver watch.

I just can't comprehend how people think these watches are worth anything. How they can spend several hundreds or even thousands on them. How they think they are a step-up over wearing nothing at all. There are so many of these bland watches out there and it looks like they make profit. I am so confused.

Are Longines watches any good?

>>13536030

God damn you're dumb.

>>13536600
The cork in the background is more interesting than the watches.

>>13536600
Tell me you are trolling.

Please.

What is the absolute perfect watch that l can get for my gf?

>>13536628
The only noteworthy modern longines is the vhp, which swatch decided to put in the longines line for some strange reason. Otherwise, modern longines is just Tissot at a higher price point.

Vintage longines has some cool pieces, including the ultronic, ultraquartz and ultrachron.

>>13536651
Interesting. Whats the best watch company for a budget in the low 2000s?

>>13536683

Explorer 1 is probably one of the few mechanical watches that can handle getting knocked around by a careless, dumb woman and still remain functional to COSC standards.

So what's the difference between Omega's regular co-axial and their master co-axial?

>>13536672
Probably either a Cartier tank or if you can stretch it a ladies datejust.

>>13536705
Master refers to the master chronometer certification. As far as I know all current mechanical omegas (outside the speedmaster pro, I think?) Are master chronometers. Certainly all the current coaxials are.

>>13536712
>daily precision of the watch
2.5s/d
>daily precision after getting hit by a huge magnetic field
0.4s/d

Omega... not even once

>>13536718
No, that means the new rate is either 2.1 or 2.9, I believe.

>>13536718
>deviation

>SHITTERS ALLOWED
This is my watch, how do you feel about it?

>>13536724
>>13536729
>test limit 0-5 s/d
So omega would be ok with a watch going up to 10s/d after getting magnetised?

>>13536743
Clearly you don't understand these testing parameters, averages or deviations. Perhaps instead of browsing 4chan you should read a book on statistics.

>>13536703
My mum gave me a watch every year because she didn’t know what to give me.
I hope she’ll never see your post.

Is it embarrassing to wear a watch worth < 10k?

Thats 41/80 my dude

>>13536769
Nah, and not a millenial, probably older than you. HC is only popular because it is Cuban but it isn't even the best Cuban rum. Rum is a shit alcohol anyways. If you insist on drinking it try Santa Teresa 1796 or Appleton's.
As for scotch there are hundreds of better options. To name a few
>Talisker
>Ardbeg
>Bowmore
>Caol Ila
>Springbank
>Lagavulin
All of those are readily available year-round. This isn't even getting into rarer distilleries or vintages. Try out a glass or two a week at a bar and find some you like. I guarantee you will not be going back to Glenfiddy

>>13536778

Has anyone gotten a perlon strap from tower.time on ebay? How is it and would it be better to go for one from him or from Crown & Buckle?

>>13536701

She created this thread.

>>13536765
Havana Club is good stuff, what the hell are you on about

>>13536909
It is mediocre at best, as I said not even the best Cuban rum. Matusalem blows it away at every age. Cuban rum is overrated anyways, it is popular because it was illegal to buy in the US for so long, not because of its own merits. I already posted options that are much, much better, particularly Santa Teresa.

>>13536920
>>13536797
This guy knows his alcohol. You guys should oay attention

>>13536600
I would sell brown presage, solar, bulova.

Maybe also sell the citizen.

Then I would get some new watches. Some that doesn't all look the same as other watches I have in my collection.

>>13536797

I don't understand this, you have like 6 of the same watch. I mean, if you're an autist you will tell me that there is some kind of minor difference to them, but it's really just the same watch, REALLY.

>>13537047
Bottom row is just retarded.

>>13537070
There are people with 6 near identical rolex, this isn't even bad considering those casios are cheap as shit

>>13537044
Its too big for a dressy watch, and too thic.

The dial is brilliant tho.

>>13537079
I would think it's even more autistic with rolexes desu.

Thoughts as an alternative to the terrorist watch?

>>13537432
Mine is fast by about 5 sec/day. The lume sucks. The font choices on the dial are questionable. But overall I think it's not bad for the price. The band and case have held up well. Never been swimming with it but it has been dunked a few times with no issue.

>>13537445
f-105, w86 and the yellow line one, plus some of the bigger ones are the preferred alternatives.

>>13537412

Is this normal? It seems a bit too fast even for a hand wound mechanical watch

>>13537714
yes, they aren't exactly what you would call "good".

They don't even feature a stainless steel case, and honestly the accuracy you're getting could have been much worse

Alright, copped one you convinced me. I figure I can pick up a seiko in that beige white later, but I think for a black dial this can't be beat in this style and price. Cheers, anon.

Hey /f/ags. Can I buy a replacement glass that won't scratch so fucking easily?

What did you mean by posting this as reply to my (deleted) post?

I think some run well some don't. Mine keeps near perfect time but I've heard some run a minute a day fast.

Just polish it with toothpaste and a cloth you lazy nigger.

simple black leather
don't do a bund ever

>>13537426
why are the hands so short ughhh

Planning to get a leather strap for my 7018 (the metal bracelet isn't original or comfortable). I'm thinking black is good, even though a lot of people seem to pair this with brown. Any recommendations? I've been pleased with RIOS1931 but wondering what else /wt/ has bought recently.

Was just testing shit
Getting rid of crystal and hands tomorrow

>One dial away from a panda
Put that baby on a bund, my man.

I don't understand the bund meme. Is there a practical reason, or just /fa/ggotry?

>>13537833
It's so if you're a pilot and your cockpit catches fire your searing hot metal watch doesn't burn the fuck out of you.

Of course, everyone on /fa/ is a NEET, so this is irrelevant.

>>13537839
Yeah because your watch being hot is the greatest concern, not THE WHOLE ROOM being fucking flames. I mean by the time your watch is hot enough to burn you, you yourself is probably as hot, i.e. dead. I call bs.

>>13537852
Google it you cuck.

The same concept applies to the cold, you don't want ice cold metal sticking to your skin.

>>13537156
such shit logic.
>oh you think balenciaga is ugly? you're just mad because you're too poor to afford it

>>13537839
Weren't pilot watches strapped over the fly jacket or pants? That was more than enough insulation/protection.
I think the cold reason you said is the real one, polar explorers and the likes used them from memory.

>>13537824
Why would you put an enormous 1000m diver on a ridiculous oversized leather strap

>>13537910
What are you? Some kind of normie shit?
Be creative faggit.

>>13536336
That's one of the Caliber 1045/Lemania 5100 Speedmasters. For various technical reasons it's one of the best tool watch mechanical chronograph movements ever made, and was one of the very last high performance mechanical movements designed purely on the basis of functionality and without regard to aesthetics.

It has a vertical clutch, cam actuation, a central register chronograph minute hand, plastic movement protection plates and a directly driven chronograph complication.

This basically means it has very smooth actuation and excellent shock and g-force resistance, combined with excellent legibility. It was used in a lot of official air force pilots watches in the late 1970s and into the 1980s.

>>13536383
The plastic parts are in non-driveline areas like the date mechanism and in shock protection plates. They are not associated with any common reliability issues as far as I know.

I want the new GMT so bad, but there are a few issues:

>24 click bezel, lame
>I'm poor

How do we solve these problems?

>>13537923
I hate jubilee bracelets.

>>13537802
What style of strap you looking for? Fluco's higher end stuff is good, Two Stitch Straps is good, Colareb is good, etc.

>>13537833
It's forced meme shitposting.

What’s a jubilee bracelet again?

Arriving tomorrow. Can't wait.

I absolutely love the case/crystal design but that dial/hand is kind of pretentious

Enjoy it!

I may have spent too much on watches.

Here are some good examples of one of the golden rules of watch photography: hands at 10 and 2. Ever notice that almost all professional watch photographs have their hands in the same position? the 10 and 2 position keeps complications in sight and the watch face uncluttered and easily displayed. It also shows off the design of the hour and minute hands in a symmetrical way.

He was probably just pissed off that you wouldn't shut up about Seiko and pushed the discussion elsewhere.

>>13538034
Thanks /p/ete.

I want to get into watch modding. Do you guys have any thoughts on what tools I'll need as a beginner? I'll likely be starting on cheap seiko 5 shitters. I'm thinking:
* Case back remover
* Brass tweezers
* Crystal press
* Watch hand remover
* Watch hand press

Build me the perfect 3-4 piece digital watch collection.
Remember to include a beater, dress watch and a diver.

All watches must be quartz led/lcd digital

What brand will be the next Rolex in 50 years?

>>13538103
Casio

>>13538101
G-Shock dw5600 general watch

If you really want a diver as well get a frogman or dive computer

>>13538101
vintage led for dress
casio f-91w or a158 for beater
vintage seiko for casual
timex atlantis 100 for diver

>>13537879

>>13538101

G-Shock DW5600

Omega Seamaster 1640

What do you all think of the GAX100CSA watches? They seem to be the most bang for your buck.

>>13538149
If you really need moon phase, tide and temperature indicators then I guess, but how necessary are those features to you? Compare it with a DW-5600 which is around $60

>>13538101
beater G-Shock GWM5610-1
dress A500WA-1ACF
diver Prosper SBEP003

A relative got this watch pawned to him, it's an SNKE34J1. How much could it go for? Totally clueless about this since the only watches I ever wear are timex and casios

>>13538186
like 50 bucks. its just a seiko 5

>>13538186
Nothing. Seiko 5's are dirt cheap, usually around 100 new. It is fake gold and has a cheap movement.

Hate analog watches tbqh
t. uses a watch to tell time

Man, I hope I don't meet a girl that cucks my wallet. My mom's like that too. I feel like 21st century dating kinda did away with that shit but maybe I'm just autistic

This. Let them go in a strop for a few days and they'll be a better partner in the future once they get over it. Better yet find an adult woman that doesn't act like a child, but that can be difficult.

Im the guy who asked.

I think im probably giving that Speedy TV a chance... i was thinking about getting a (hated) speedy reduced, but this seems to be way way better but i need to try it on the flesh to see how it fits since it looks a bit chunky (but cool).

What you wearing today, /fa/g/ bros?

>>13538567
Pic from yesterday but wearing my soviet Neptune case scuba dude on the new steel bracelet.

>>13538600

>>13538600
Depends on your work and the attire. If you have smart dressy, then I would take the speedy, but if you wear a suit then I would not, then I guess the Geneve would be the most appropriate.

I'm just saying your choices are very boring, faggot. No need to start flaunting your money e-peen. Fun cap though. Did you get rid of your ana digi Casio btw?

>>13538686
I like my expensive watches to be conventional for value retaining purposes. I have more fun with my cheap watches.
My gold Casio is in a drawer somewhere in my flat.

>>13538664
To actually dive, probably pic related. To only dress in my taste is the Seamaster 300m Bond.

>>13538694
The insecure bitch returns, how did it feel when aq230 fag cucked you out of your watch?
Shit was hilarious.

>>13538706
How big is that watch? And how expensive?

>>13538735
Its huge, and can be had for a bit more than 500€ i think.

>>13538719
What you mean? I still have it...

>>13538797
Why aren't there any affordable divers that are proper divers, but aren't huge?
