You're supossed to start the op with a cool watch not a picture of the Forest

First for Seiko "the only watch you need" perfection.

Don't know if this is the right place to ask but does anyone know what color/type of watch would look good on my wrist?

I'm wearing mine again after putting it in its box for the last 3 months. I enjoyed it for a while, but once I noticed that the case had been cut misshapen, it was all I could see when I wore it.

Anyway, bought a cape cod cloth, spent 1.5 anime episodes polishing it and now it's basically perfect. I wouldn't recommend one to anyone but I am enjoying it again and have a shark mesh bracelet coming for it tomorrow.

nigga the crown is on the wrong side
you bought a fake and couldnt even notice that?
or did you really think they made ones with a left crown?

>>13612525
Nice, I prefer the red text & creamy lume on the LHD. The standard Pelagos looks too clinical by comparison.

>>13611926
If only the faggot mods would actually try and deal with the resident shitposters then we wouldn't have these problems.

Crazy to think one autist can destroy a general.

Copped this yesterday

>>13612610
I could never understand how people think this looks nicer than the SKX.

>>13612666
To be fair, both look like shit.

oh baby
>$2200 USD
I get that it's the new movement but damn a $2k presage

>>13612610
I have this. It has a lot of potential. Problem is Orient screwed up the coin edge bezel with sloppy finishing. The worst coin edge bezel in the industry.

>>13612606
I'm not a shitposter.

>>13612674
At least the SKX has a rugged tool watch appeal.

>>13612704
It's externally finished to Grand Seiko standards and has an ETA 2892-A2 top grade equivalent movement. The price is right for the watch you are getting, but they never should have put it in the presage line.

>>13612704
>arabic 3 at 9 o'clock

A friendly reminder that this and all of it's variants are my OCs and should never be used without my complicit consent

That's not an autism watch. It's a "money can't buy taste" watch.

here's my latest, a Junghans 1/100 second stopwatch

>>13613464
It has the same strange reset behavior as this Aristo 1/10 stopwatch (which uses a Junghans movement). When you reset it, you can here the balance wheel start moving, and when the hand reaches 0, you can here the balance wheel slow down and stop.

>>13613467
You can see longer teeth/fingers/pawls/something on the wheel in the lower left of the movement which corresponds to the 1/10 hand. I assume that catches on something when the stopwatch is reset to disengage the wheel from the balance.

>>13613567
i think i have that watch, it was given to me as a gift because they thought as a coach i'd like using the individual stopwatch and stuff. it's kind of nice-looking finish wise but i don't think vincero watches are amazing and the dial is fuckhuge, which is my real problem with it.

>>13613054

>>13615261
Nah, sorry you got me wrong there. It didn't get a new certificat befor sale but it does 1sek- to 2sek+ a day, depending if I wear it or leave it in my watchwinder. I tryed laying it face down over night and got 1sek-, laying with crone top does 0sek and crone down is 2sek-.

Sure I did no official ceetificat but after keeping an eye on this for around one Month I feel like it would pass the certification again.

>>13615320
>I feel like it would pass the certification again.
Why not test it?

>>13615346
Maybe I will test it at some point, would be interessting too see if I am right or not.

>>13616913
Had to change a battery in this one already. Hope it's because I didn't change it after I serviced it, but I can't remember. I've only restored it in February, so that would be a pretty short battery life if I did, and SR43 ain't cheap.

>>13616925
Movement shot. Pretty much comparable to Citizen's Cosmotron series. A little better in a few things, a little worse in others.

Its main advantage over the Cosmotron series is that the beat of the seconds hand isn't halved, because it uses a fork instead of just a directly driven index wheel. The downside of this that the index wheel needs to be adjusted to properly align, but that's not too hard.

How long can last a Casio F-91w, counting strap changing and battery swaps?

>>13617098
50 years approximately

>>13617098
Approximately ∞ years.

>>13617098
Digital watches are so seriously reliable novadays, no moving parts nigga.
The lcd and the crystal are the weak points.
I think lcds are said to have up to 30 years of life expectancy, but nowadays you can see over 40 year old digital watches that are working and keeping time perfectly fine and they were made with inferior tech than what we have now.
I predict a f-91w can last a hundred years if you only use it at a certain pressure, don't subject it to shocks and use it at a certain temperature (20 c +-10 c).

i get a "Our CDN was unable to reach our servers" error

Gonna start assembling the 4336 on the right. It's the last one left, and so far it's the weirdest one I've seen.

The top side is very simple, the gears are as small as on a modern cheap quartz movement, but the dial-side is ridiculously complicated, two layers of very fine levers and calendar parts.

I suspect this movement was either an upscaled women's movement, or a men's that was designed to be adaptable to a women's case later on. Either way the parts are way smaller than normal. I'll be taking pics of the progress as I assemble it.

>>13617210
There are all of the parts that had to go into the small cleaning basket due to their size. In there I put a 377 battery for scale, which is 6.8mm in diameter.

You don't have this many tiny shit in a handwinding chronograph.

>>13617093
Too dark outside to take a good new shot, so an old one will have to do.

>>13617210
>>13617218
Neat. Thanks for sharing.

>>13617223
Nice as always fatbrah, hows the lifting going?

>>13617218
The tiny-ass geartrain. I really don't understand why a full-size movement has such small gears. I doubt they were gearing up for an eventual quartz chronograph based on the movement, and besides the first one (7A28) was years away.

Good morning wt

>>13617251
That's wild

>>13617280
And all that's left to put on on that side is the upper plate, and the rest is the electronics. The dial side is where it gets crazy.

>>13617251
Already a bit complicated, and this is only the first layer.

Also I'm not sure if that screw really goes there.

I think it was around $240 from Yahoo! Japan Auctions using a proxy bidding site. Worth every penny, too, though I would have bought one of the new all steel G-Shocks if they hadn't made them mostly brushed rather than mostly polished.

>>13617601
Did you contact the buyer first to make sure he would ship to you?
I’m a bit apprehensive.

This seems overpriced. I suppose it is from the 80s and pretty good quality. I need to get on Yahoo auctions.

>>13617634
The whole reason you have to use proxy bidding sites is that you cannot normally bid on auctions from Yahoo! Japan Auctions from outside of Japan.

The proxy bidding sites (e.g. ZenMarket) allow you to bid on those auctions, then, if you win, the item is shipped by the seller to the proxy and you pay separately for the proxy to ship it to you.

The two big downsides with this are that you have to rely on Google Translated auction descriptions and pictures, and that you have basically zero buyer protection. The upside is you will find way better prices on vintage Japanese watches.

Shit. Damn xenophobic japs.
Wish I had a friend in Japan.

>>13613283

Cool.

>>13613454

How big is that, 42mm?

>>13613464

This anon knows.

>>13613567

Shit. Stop shilling your garbage.

>>13614666

That's weirdly attractive.

>>13614851

Yes, it looks nice. Nixon has nice clean stuff. Not pretentious and if you just care about the way it looks they're great.

>>13614975

How long have you had it? Happy about the buildquality?

>>13615048

Can't dig it, sorry.

>>13615299

Every time you post it, it puts a smile on my face.

>>13615318

Nice. How much did you pay for it and is it solid gold or filled?

>>13615590

It's so fucking bright!

>>13615596

Nice. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

>>13616925

Oooh, I like it.

>>13617223

Real nice.

>>13617639

Seems fair. You could probably get one for cheap, but you'd have to spend some time looking.

>>13617676
If you decide to pursue it, you'll need to search by the model code, which is s760-0AA0

>>13617681
It's solid gold. I found it on eBay and paid a few kilobucks for it.

>>13612610
Why did they make the bezel so shit to actually turn?

>>13617688

If you were spending that kind of money why did you finally choose this one, if I may ask?

>>13617678
>women's Yacht-Master
Why are these things so common on eBay?
Also, is the size suitable for a guy with thin little wrists? I'm tempted to cop one because I want an affordable FECKING ROWE-LECKS.

Its a Girard Perregaux 32a observatory chronometer, a pretty historically important watch. The 32a was the first ever 36k vph commercial wristwatch caliber. It was guaranteed to 2spd, the highest rating in history at the time and nearly so even today for a hairspring-regulated wristwatch. The observatory models were remarkable in particular for being commercially offered observatory chronometers, which was very uncommon, to put it mildly. This article lays out a little of the 32a history (it also gets some facts wrong; most material is that it claims there were only 662 32a watches, of which 40 were observatory certified; in fact there were 662 observatory certified chronometers, 40 in 1966 and 622 in 1967, and many more non-observatory 32a pieces).

My non-observatory 32a is in nicer shape, but is non-observatory and plated gold. It did come with the original boxes, certificate, manual, etc though.

Women's watches are nothing but fashion items (to women) and metal rolex type watches are out of fashion right now (For women) so they price is low, women literally give no fucks about if it is quartz or mechanical or good or bad quality, just how it goes with their outfit

how small are your wrists, they are pretty damn small

>>13617723
I've got TGV-tier six-something inch wrists.

Women buy more Rolex than men do.

Why aren't you wearing a bronze Glycine Combat Sub right now?

>>13617719

Cool. But what is it, solid or plated? You gave two different answers.
Also, are you the same guy as Junghans stopwatch guy?

>>13617746
Because I'm not into SHITTERS.
Glycine is owned by Invicta after all.

>>13617749
GAS YOURSELF YOU FUCKING FAGGOT COCK SUCKER PIECE OF SHIT

>>13617750
But it looks pretty sweet.

>>13617749
My observatory is solid gold, my non observatory is plated. Yes, the junghans, aristo, and lemania stop watches are mine.

>>13617751

Relax, anon. Everything's going to be okay.

>>13617746

>>13617764

Right, misunderstood the part where YOU HAVE TWO?! Very nice to have someone here that appreciates the engineering part of watches.
My knowledge is very limited, trying to learn something new every day.

>tfw the only Rolex I've got is incomplete and finding parts is next to impossible because these ancient models are very poorly documented

>>13617790
and because it's not a rolex.

>>13617772
The 32a movement was developed by a group of swiss manufacturers, including GP, zodiac, doxa, favre leuba, and others. Gp further refined it into the later 42.1, which has hacking and quickset, but isn't as historically significant (and was never observatory certified). I also have a astrographic SST, which was the same basic movement design from zodiac.

I'd love to own a kew A Rolex in a speedking case, which was probably the first ever commercially-sold observatory certified wristwatch, but it's unlikely I'll ever see one for sale.

There's still plenty of regulars lurking with historical knowledge so feel free to ask actually interesting questions.

>>13617681
Yes 42

>>13617827
That bezel has seen some shit.

Kek, I had just charged it with a UV torch.

Alright, this shitter arrived. A 3802, dated 1973. It's not running right now and the cannon pinion has almost completely seized, but I could probably restore this one too. This is a penisquartz, but not a GQ/KQ and Type II. I think it's closest to a QT without having the QT logo. I believe the 3802 constitutes as a HEQ (High End Quartz).

Bracelet is not the original unfortunately, but it's a pretty good Maruman.

THE TIME FOR NEW HAS ARRIVED!! ALL BUMPS ARE LIMIT!!!

POST FOR FAST AND PLOX!!!

POST FOR NEW!!!!

BREAAAQAD!!!!

>>13617850
>butt day
Those japs are really ahead of us.

>>13617853
>believe the 3802 constitutes as a HEQ (High End Quartz)
I would generally not agree. The 3802 was the lowest grade 38xx quartz caliber. The 3883 would probably qualify, but that's probably it. It's a fine movement, and early quartz, even at the low end, were built well, but they were basic movements. Think of them as a similar level of quality to a modern Bulova UHF, for instance.

>>13617853
Also finally the previous owner wasn't a typical noodle-wristed gook this time, so I don't have to add a clasp-extendeer.

>>13617856
Nya~

>>13617866
Oh well. Still by what photos I could find it's a nice early quartz movement. Here's how the back looks. Notched battery hatch, and screwdown ring for the caseback, pretty excessive.

These are all the Yahoo.jp seller's pics, I'll do shots of the movement tomorrow.

How does this watch (dial to be precise) work?

>>13617681
>>13614975

Got it around 2 months ago and I realy love this watch. I just like the titanium because it looks awesome in ether sun light or cloudy days. The case is very well made, didn't find a single flaw yet. Timekeeping is also very accurate so I guess I got a lucky gem of ebay.

>Pic is cloudy day

>>13617691

Because it’s a cheap watch anon
