Gas yourself.

3. For 3400 yen tag heuer

Ordering the tubes today, still can't figure out how to open the case back. I am going to take it to a jeweler

>>13596247
I fail to see the problem

>>13596254

>can't afford a decent watch
Interns pls leave.

is this better

>>13596270
what watch should i buy

>>13596274
Rolex, you're not in finance so make it a steel stunner.

>>13596248
Tag Heuer 4 lyf

>>13596276
I bought the steinhart to see if I wanted a 44mm sea dweller, honestly this stein is nice enough that it makes me not want the rolex, it's swiss eta, sapphire and has a nice steel bracelet. The rollie is not a functionally better watch IMO and it's $13,000 more expensive

>>13596284
You think you're more likely to get a promotion wearing a Steinshart or a Rolex?

>>13596290
>promotions are determined by watches
grow up

>>13596290
>You think you're more likely to get a promotion wearing a Steinshart or a Rolex?
lol nobody cares about anything like that were I work. I actually work in IT and manage all the parent company's websites. I do marketing but only in the sense of campaigns and sales promotions on the sites. Literally all they care about is how much my department spends and how much we get back in revenue.

nobody could give the slightest care what watch I wear or don't wear as long as my numbers are good

>>13596302
Do they care about you spending 60+ hours a week shitting up these threads?

>>13596251
Slip a knife under it you brainlet windy

>>13596309
>Do they care about you spending 60+ hours a week shitting up these threads?
nope

>>13596320
>Slip a knife under it you brainlet windy
bro there is no notch in the case back

>>13596330
Many do not have it, just take a fruit knife and pop it out

Can deny that Chris Ward has done well with this one. Not sure about bronze though.

>>13596338
I can't get the caseknife between the back and the case, nor a tiny watch screwdriver

Evening wt

My wannabe BB36 is really growing on me.

>>13596339
Would be better without the 9:00 text to be honest.

>>13596340
I can't imagine how is that even possible, but fine enough.

>>13596349
>I can't imagine how is that even possible, but fine enough.
I have never had this much trouble getting a case back off and I mod and change batteries all the time and have for 20 years

I am going to feel pretty stupid going in and paying some guy to pop it off but oh well.There is at least a decent independent watch shop in my city with a good watchmaker i can go to and not just some guy at a kiosk

>>13596342
Evening mate.

>>13596354
I hope the watch maker can open it, once a mate of mine brought a watch to me because the watch makers couldn't get the case open.
The caseback was a pop up one without any notches.
Wasn't hard to remove though, I use a card sharp for those, works wonders since the blade is so thin.

>>13596342
I love that Poljot homage, gonna cop one myself one day.

>>13596330
just use an x-acto knife fa-m

>>13596339
Its nice but at £1,850 It's too expensive. A Black Bay Bronze is only £1k more.

>>13596344
Well it is utterly cancerous, so that makes sense.

Do you like my clock guys?

>>13596403
Lolz
Fuck you though. I made this.

Working on a replica Blancpain FF bezel for a homage I'm building. This is my attempt at the font. Because the piece is going to be so small I'm not too concerned about little imperfections. Top is base font, middle is my modification, bottom is one of the vintage bezels I based the design off of.

I plan on having black aluminum cut by a cnc miller if anyone's interested. I've posted about custom bezels in a few threads but no one seems to be knowledgeable in the area.

>>13596397
The BBBronze is just too big and thicc. Bulky af.

>>13596370
i googled a little and people were saying they sometimes have to use a literal razor blade, I don't feel like cutting myself wide open atm. There is also some fancy contraption to open these that I am hoping a legit watchmaker will have

>>13596380
>just use an x-acto knife fa-m
i might try that, but i am going to feel pretty dumb if i cut myself

>>13596412
The rounded font on the bezel is likely just because of the size of the tool used to cut it. The original font used was likely the top one.

>>13596412
5 and 3 are way off, 4 needs a longer 'nose' - your mod has it cut off too abruptly. Shave the lower hump on the 5 and it might be OK, the 3 has proportions that look way off

>>13596405
very sinister

>>13596405
not very effay

>>13596362
I’m so hungover
Nice watch

Tfw posting from bed.
Goodnight wt, post lume / backlight.

>>13596409
I think it's nice
Nh36 build into an SNGZ13K1 with new dial

where did u watch fags come from? a month ago u werent here?

>>13596507
Blame autistic /g/ mods.

>>13596422
My example font was released in 2013 and the watch in the 50s so that's a no go partner. It was likely an in house font they developed. various bezels over the years have used it. I'm sure if I emailed marketing they'd tell me more about it.

>>13596423
yeah the 5's a mess. Getting the spoon shape on the lower half is difficult. I'm comforted by the fact the guys in /gd/ didn't capture it well either. 3 I'm working but I don't want the middle as stubby as the original because I don't know the accuracy of the CNC mill I'll be having it done on yet. Didn't notice the 4 but you're right on that.

I'm redoing this using a more geometric approach. Generating true circles then deleting half and joining the nodes to the shape as one path. In the original I just added nodes where I wanted curves then dragged them out and smoothed the lines.

>>13596507
got "banned" from /g/ because they can't appreciate this work of mechanical art more than some superjetfighters.

Sup

Are orient ray IIs still cool? Or should I get a skx009?

What do you think of Mondaine? I gind it /fa/ af. Has a cool quartz movement that does crazy stuff to (smooth moving secons hand that stops 2 seconds at 12 every minute and when it moves again the minute hand jumps a minute, cool).

>>13596413
True, if they make a bronze version of the BB58 though...

>>13596520
Id rather no see that guts.

>>13596416
Mine came with these tips too.
These have been really useful for watchfucking.

>>13596549
It's okay if you have no need for a good watch, but just want a watch and be done with it.

Seiko SNZF17 "Sea Urchin" or Seiko SNZH57 "Fifty Five Fathoms"

what one?

>>13596581
Wanted an open heart a while back, I think I went as safe as you can go design wise for one of them. I only really see orient and Hamilton fucking around with them.

>>13596520

Love it. I generally think open hearts are a little cringey but this one works.

>>13596558
They won't, bronze is a crude material, the bronze BB is thicc for a reason.

I'm building a poorfag's /wtg/ sub $300 watch recommendations to refresh the 8 year old outdated one. Finished the dress, digital, diver but still working on the field/military watches.

Seiko 5 $60
Orient monterey/any seiko 7t92 quartz $140
Tisell pilot $210
Hamilton khaki $280
Seagull 1963 st19 $300

Anything you guys think deserves to be on this list?

Thanks to those of you who've already helped

You'll get bored of it within a week.

Get the helm vanuatu or save up for a sinn.

>>13596709
I'm getting a mother of pearl 556. Never getting bored of that.

why are you faggots bitching about 41mm diameter

it looks perfectly normal

>>13596717
41mm is way too big, 40mm is perfect.

>ANON I CANT BELIEVE YOU SPENT OVER $1000 ON A FUCKING WATCH WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU REEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>13596728
>41mm is way too big, 40,8mm is perfect.
ftfy

>>13596728
40mm is way too small though. You really have to go for 40.5mm.

>>13596342

>>13596375
I am pretty happy with it. It runs around 2 sek +/- a day.

Glycine combat 6

There are brand new ones for under 300.

>Pic related out for 200$. '80 modell. Day&date works and kreps the time with +/- 5 sec a day with normal use.

Is it a good buy?

are there any nice white dial dress watches (<38mm) ~$200? Orient Bambino is too big, Tissot tradition is too big. Preferably automatic

What are the chances that Paul Pluta is Rakesh?

I asked this in the thread on /g/ but this one seems to be more popular.
Thoughts on Skagen watches? They have that minimal, bauhaus kind of aesthetic I'm looking for but they're very affordable.
Anyone have experience with them before I order one?
And if they're not good watches then what's a good alternative that's affordable but quality with that similar aesthetic.
My dream watch is a Nomos Orion but that's out the picture right now price wise. Anything in the 200 dollar range?

Hey /wt/, long story short I thought it'd be a cool idea if we made our own watch. I'm an aerospace engineer so I have my own CAD software, and can pretty much draft/model anything. This watch should encompass all of /wt/ and its culture. When we finish I'll share files along with the drawings if anyone wants to manufacture it. Give me suggestions for it (diameter, lug size, engravings, bezel design, etc.).

>>13596866

>>13596698
>one of the seiko 5's with nh35
is there a list somewhere? also, i wanted a diver styled watch, which is why i was looking at those two

How do I keep my armhair from bunching up over my strap?

>>13596874
What's the story on this watch? Is it a cheap knockoff or is it good stuff?

>>13596879
Shave you animal.

>>13596889
It has a seagull movement. It's certainly a cheap knockoff. For the price, the seagull movement isn't awful. It has the soothing sounds of a Harley Davidson.

Missed the boat on my dream watch

>>13596827
Can you get pic related under 200?

Otherwise, have you considered going vintage?

>>13596919
You can't get that for under 200 no

What is the best watch for atheists to piss off Christcucks? I was thinking something like this because of the pagan runes, or perhaps a Wiccan style watch

Why are you trying to get /wg/ banned with the gazillion threads per minute? I know it's summer and all, but fucking hell.

Is this peak watch aesthetics?

>*sip*
Ahhh, that first sip of the day, ya can't beat it.

>>13596917
Fucking saved, lmaO

What the fuck man

>>13596919
I would be happy to go vintage, I just don't feel confident with it at all yet. I've got a half decent understanding of watches now, but I worry that I'd miss crucial details or just get unlucky with a vintage piece that ends up requiring expensive servicing. Servicing is so expensive in Sydney actually it would just be a throwaway at that point. Most watchmakers here have a baseline of about $300-400 which increases with every little thing that needs to be done.

>>13596919
>>13597078
also there is absolutely fuck all market for it here in Australia. I'd have to buy from the US with $60 shipping, and many sellers refuse to ship here

>>13597078
If you're trying to spend $200 going vintage doesn't really make sense, since as you point out a service will cost more than that.

>>13597088
yeah, its just very hard to find anything 34-38mm even in dress watches, which is frustrating

>>13597147
The SACM171 is an excellent choice and good value for the money, but it's a little out of your price range at 400USD. 33.5mm, white textured dial, 10spy high accuracy movement, sapphire crystal, diashield coating.

>>13597158
damn that's exactly what I had in mind. Thanks anon, I think I'll just keep that saved for now and wait a little longer to allocate some more cash to it.

>>13597162
cool. Throw in a cheapish alligator or lizard strap for the budget as well, as the stock strap is quite poor.

>>13597168
will do. Thanks mate

Wristlet checking in. Looking for a 40mm with a shorter lug width. Under 1k, preferably under 500. Diver. Non homage preferably.

I know I'm picky. Thanks gents

>>13597203

>>13597203
Armida A11 is the true wristlet diver, Miyota 9xxx is much nicer than the 7S in the SKX

>>13597226
What wrong with it?

>>13597233
logo looks silly

if you like the way it looks i have no doubt that it will keep time and be an acceptable quality watch

>>13597233
They are a glorified fashion brand with mediocre build quality (though that seems to have improved recently).

>>13597243
>mediocre build quality
have you seen them in person? I've tried on a few and for their price, especially on the 30-40% sales, they're very hard to beat

>>13597264
Yes but as I said they've improved in the last few years. Their hands for example were down right terrible.

>>13597264
they really need to use their original logo. all their other attempts are shit.

Thoughts on Vincero watches?

>>13597322
Stop asking.

>>13597295

What are some watches with good lume to wear on moonless nights?

>>13597322
Literally the best <$200 watch.

That said, they are clearly <$200 watches. And everyone knows that too, so while they look nice, everyone who knows anything about watches at all will know you are poor.

>>13597343
So when making a good impression, would no watch be better than Vincero?

I hear the iphone has a torch feature and even tells the time. Get with the times noob.

>>13596507
These new watch threads are better than the old ones we had. Actual useful info gets put out (on occasion at least) rather than the generic fashion cancer, raate my dick shit watch we used to have.

>>13597347
this desu
g was a shitshow

GP and Seiko get a lot of press for selling observatory-certified watches in the 60s, but Rolex was the first to put observatory certified movements into commercially available wristwatches. A number of movements certified at the Kew observatory were put into wristwatch cases and sold in the early twentieth century, although strangely most were actually sold in the relatively unpopular small-size speedkings.

>>13597353
How many of these kew rolexes were actually sold? I haven't seen one up for sale so I'd guess the answer is "not many".

>>13596928

>>13597355
According to a secondary source, 136, a bit more than Seiko's observatory chronometers and about a fifth as many as Girard Perregaux's.
http://forums.timezone.com/?t=rview&th=2246&goto=2246

That said, Dowling is an acknowledged authority on vintage Rolex so probably has at least some idea what he's talking about.

>>13597344
Depends on the person. It will look good to females or younger coworkers. Take it off before meeting with executives though.

Knock off nomos glashutte

>>13596520
We love our Orients here, but this is pushing the sleaze factor too hard for a shitter. Shoulda just gone for a v4 Bambino.

>>13597443
I mean I'm not floral'd out when I wear it, just the watch. Got it a while back, specifically for the open heart, didn't want a bambino. I had it on a hirsch for a while but I just don't like it as much as I do on graphic NATOS. Because the dial is black and the case isn't that small I think it gets away with it.

>>13596816
This watch definitely doesn't say fuck you. Yellow gold Rolex definitely does. Pick any model. Also gold AP offshores.

How do I get a good taste in watches? What are the things I have to check to distinguish between a shitter and a stunner?

>>13596889
its good enough. Check out tisell too.

so i fell for the "minimalist"meme and sold my sub, speedy and my tank americaine, and thought i could live only with a sarb065.

jesus i fucking miss my old watches, what would you guys buy in my situation? i kinda like the idea of a one-watch collection but i feel like a poor with only a seiko, wearing a luxury piece was a real confidence booster.

i was thinking maybe a fifty fathoms, that thing looks gorgeous.

>just learned that quartz movements still typically lose 10-12 seconds a month
well what the fucking point then if you also need to reset them regularly?

>>13597485
Bullshit nigruh

>>13597485
The point is to have to reset them less.

The best-rated quartz watches today run at 5 seconds per year and use various thermocompensation techniques to achieve that. Chip-scale atomic clock watches are good to 1 second per millennium but are not quite practical yet. Of course there are radio and GPS sync watches but those still lose 10-15 seconds per month when unassisted.

>>13597485
I have several quartz watches, I have never had to mess with them more than once per 6 months when setting for daylight savings time

still too poor to get one....

Which Japanese manufacturer is the best one, Orient, Citizen or Seiko?

>>13597636
Credor micro art studio, then grand seiko.

I just collect vintage cause I'm too damn poor for any modern pieces worth getting. I'm just glad the market here is pretty alive and pieces trade for cheap.

Pic, I got for $70, spending $10 to buff out the crystal.

>>13597814
Agreed. They were real works of art, I gotta say.

>>13597818
If you can get one in good condition for ~$100 or so, go for it! They keep excellent time, the finishing is excellent, and the 52xx calibers don't have that annoying potential issue with the quickset date rocker.

For smp bro from another thread. Will probably put it on a rubber strap, with my tiny wrists I find it to be too large a chunk of metal when it's on the bracelet.

>>13597838

>>13597911
No reference, not even a serial. It's one of those old ebauche pieces from back in the 70s. Movement is a Landeron 51. Pretty ubiquitous, but I'm glad it's clean and functions perfectly for its age. I love the distinctly vintage charm about it, with the lugs and the design of the dial.

>>13597924
Not for now, but maybe to fund if someone I know decides to let go of a grail piece of mine (a Seiko Izul SDAA005). I'm honestly not too sure of the going prices for these nowadays though.

But why is that version hated?

>>13598011
I don't know if it's "hated" but Neil Armstrong's watch didn't have a glass back, so if you want a motm watch why would you want that?

>>13598011
Because it isn't the same as the Moonwatch. Also the sapphire crystal has a weird cloudy ring around the edge of the dial.

Sup r/watches! Been a minute.

Have to share this with you guys. I sent in my Black Themes in to get “blacked” (lol) and just got it back. Turned out super bad ass and I’m pretty stoked. I use to hate the black on black look but lately that and 2 tone gold pieces have been my weakness. This watch hasn’t left my wrist yet.

Those old LM Specials are some of the best values on the vintage watch market, they are probably among the highest grade, best adjusted automatic movements you can get in a vintage watch below $200 and came in a ton of styles.

>>13598338
Literally no reason to own health insurance since you cant be denied anymore. The tax waiver is way cheaper than having insurance, and if you actually get a bad disease or something, you can just sign up for insurance, use it, then unsub after you are cured.

Can't wait to put my filthy hands on my ags 5m22 seiko. Like bruv, it's unbelievable how I can obtain the pinnacle of (before spring-drive) Japanese technology infused watches for the mere amount of ¥1600.

>>13598410
Forgot the picture

>>13598410
Kinetic is literal garbage.

t. just serviced my 5m22 a few weeks ago

>>13598413
This one is mine.

>>13598414
May have to fuck with mine. It was sold as """junk""" but looks perfect onnthe pictures. Are there any common problems with it?

>>13597887

>>13598438
Dead capacitor.

If it's from Japan, then also light water damage is possible. The nips seriously abuse their watches' water resistance ratings.

>>13598447

Hello again friends

I feel a little get together is in order for the first /wg/ meet up

Feel free to drop by and do remember to take your shoes of before stepping on mothers carpet ok

>>13598515
Can I bring my watch, pls?

>>13597887
henlo

>>13598515
>what if terrist-clock bro decides the unthinkable?

>>13598515
Yeah, like I want to meet a bunch of strangers from 4chan and get robbed.

>>13597481
Tbh I'd just get a 16610 senpai
But if you can pull off a Fifty Fathoms go for it, it's gorgeous

>>13598531
I'd be disappointed if you didn't bring your lovely watches to show off to everyone in person

>>13598541
There is more than enough room in the garden if the weather is nice enough for it. The house may be gone but our friendship will live on

>>13598544
Hey now friend there will be no trouble at all. If anyone is feeling a little bit too rowdy there is a paddling pool in the garden for them to cool off

>>13598447
>jewel count
I hope orient gets a clue some day.

Why did this post make me think of John Podesta?

The fuck is wrong with my head?

>>13598515
Hell yeah f.am i am all for a /wg/ - wallpaper general - meetup

>>13598582
Hey what can I say friend. Mother has some lovely wallpaper here

>>13598571

Just adjusted my Santos' bracelet. Easy screwed links, quality there for sure.

>>13598609
That is one manlly arm.
Good for you.

>>13598609
Very nice anon. Really liking the new Santos. Do you wear it on a strap too?

>>13598615
Lol it looks gay af. Emaciated. No forearms.

>>13598615
This is starting so sound a bit gay, but thank you i guess.

>>13598615
My arms are thick solid and tight desu

what would be a good watch for me?

>>13598621
It’s not gay. I can see what others have.
My mom says we have the same hands.. how’s that for a compliment.

>>13598617
I had it on a plain black Hirsch strap. This is actually a quartz from the 90s, thin af, perfect for formal ocasions.

What is the best watch for seiko?

>>13598628
Hamilton pilot

>>13598635
Rolex submariner

>>13598638
does Seiko make a submariner?

>>13598640
Sorta but the Seiko submariner is actually better because it’s day date

>>13598643
Why does Rolex not make a day date submariner too?

>>13598645
Because they don’t know how they tried before

>>13598646
That's weird you would think they could pull it off

>>13598645
Because they suck cooooooock

>>13598632
(^_^)

>>13598647
Rolex can’t even pull off a grand quartz

>>13598656
Why did Rolex stop making quartz?

>>13598658
They kept fucking it up nobody would buy them

>>13598660
You would think it would not be too hard to make a quartz watch if you had Rolex's resources

Wristlet reporting in.

>>13598541
>Sending my beautiful timepiece away.

>>13598662
It’s just a different technology, all Rolex knows is how to carve gears

>>13598669
I just want a quartz day date submariner, is that too much to ask?

>>13598672
From Rolex yes

>>13598658
They thought that quartz wont sell expensive enough. Rolex wants to cash in as much money as it can while selling by no means more than a million watches a year.

>>13598663
Stop shaving it and wearing huge chunks of metal and you will look much manlier.

>>13597485

Mine is currently 13 seconds behind on an atomic clock after about 1.5 months. Last time I reset the time was when I skipped the date 1 day moving from June to July. That's just a generic inexpensive Citizen (pic).

My F91W is currently 3 seconds ahead after about 1 month of running.

DESU I think it's kind of embarassing how well they do at +-120,- and +-15,- when compared to automatic 'certified chronometers'..

>having to close my bar early today
Damn thunderstorm.

Timex made the oysterquartz for decades and it was an excellent watch. My understanding is that, for whatever reason, it was very unpopular with ADs, and therefore difficult for customers to get a hold of. It was entirely proprietary to Rolex and had a VXCO quartz oscillator and a pallet-fork driven gear train and has an excellent reputation among high-end quartz collectors.

>>13598689
Does your bar offer horological conversations for wt regulars along drinks?

>>13596948
Fake nazi watch. This is what one should look like, waiting for it in the mail.

I posted the thread first you dumbfuck, not my fault you're a threadsplitting faggot.

>>13598758
You really need to calm down

Your behaviour is driving up mothers blood pressure


We will be heading off for a nice bubble bath soon enough though


Do not disturb us

>>13598708
Surely. We even have the catalogues too.

>>13598771
sweet, what bar is that you run?

>>13598742
I want an orange monster with the orange nato strap.

>>13598771
A /wt/ bar
hnnnnnnnggg

>>13596344
Oh shit I haven't been here in a while. Are you the guy who makes this hideous Frankenstein watches? They're ugly as shit kill yourself.

>>13598640
They did make the SKX031, AKA the Seiko Submariner.

>tfw it only has 100m of water resistance which disqualifies it from being considered an actual dive watch

>>13598773
Nothing special. Hungarian bars are all the same, but some have better decoration. We went for a modern french style. It's very fucking small inside but it's located in a walking street, and we have 12 tables outside(60 people-ish), in the best part of the whole country, so we manage. Drinking was my fathers favourite hobby so we decided to waste our time with this whole project, which if fails I may unironically open a watch store.

>>13598742
Id keep the Mudman (beater) and maybe the black Monster (daily). And buy something dressy or maybe a smart looking chronograph (that could be your first luxury watch).

>>13598814
That's nice, has any wt guys been there?
Wont you tell the name of the bar?

>>13598835
>/wt/ mandem
Just a fuck watchfuckers with their tag heuers and skx007, we have a few rolex wearers coming in every now and then, too but they seems to not care about horology but the status symbolness of rolex.
>Name of the place
I wish not to doxx my self. But If you ask me in the discord's vip section I might tell you.

>>13598865
Not him, but how do I into vip?
Do I just have to spam the discord?

>>13598875
We don't tolerate spamming much, but yes, if you contribute enough you'll be given vip rank either by the bot or a mod/admin.

>>13598934
>Thanks for the end of thread spam windy/tudorfag
we are not the same person

>>13598935
Those super fine wispy hairs look like your pubes? Are you 12 years old?

Didn't know this thread was posted first but I'll just repost what I asked in the other one.

Got an SNKL23, do you guys have good strap recommendations? I like perlon and milanese mesh a lot but less expensive preferred if possible

Breitling Aeromarine Shark A13051
I've had it since the early 90s. A warhorse. My go to.

>>13598942
Topkek not him but the hairs on the left do look like pubes. Hairs on the right look wispy
