>>13678514
I hate natos. I’m a bracelet guy.

>>13678514
my concern is that you actually bought a rolex that is no better than a 300 dollar seiko.

>>13678506
Could you tell me how the bracelet is like on those presages? Do they feel like quality, or is it cheap like sarb033/35? Don't know if you have ever handled a sarb before tho.

>>13678418
is that milgauss real ? if it is, damn i wouldnt pay 5k for that...

Post collection guys!
This is mine, just the max bill is missing bc my roommate is wearing it atm.

I bought the watch I loved.

They feel cheap. I was thinking about changing them but I don’t really know where to buy.

>>13678536
How old are you man? Are you a student?

>>13678536
The white one because the dial is really pretty and love the blue hands.

But I’m going to a wedding in a week I’ll wear the blue one to match my waistcoat.

Alright, serviced and reassembled this 3802. All it needs now is the new crystal to arrive, and maybe a more matte strap.

Also how do I stop this phone camera from taking such dark pics indoors. I look like a Tudor replica collector.

Suggestions for a Strap for the Blue one?
I have it and have been thinking about getting something else.

I remember one poster with a blue EULIT Palma on the blue cocktail time but the blue of the band struck me a little too light.

I recently checked out this (pic related) Hirsch "Premium Caoutchouc" band and have been thinking about pulling the trigger.

Might be great for the under $1000 mark, but I think in general the best diver is the skx007, what more do you need? At any price range, I would put the tunas and the MM300 proper in the running.

>>13679011
> The best diver is one with a 7S movement

>>13679015

Hmm, you're right, as a movement alone the 7S is not remarkable (but it is reliable, in my opinion). I guess i was thinking along the lines of a daily one watch kind of selection.

Alright, then I'll change my answer to the Grand Seiko SBGA spring drive diver as the best Seiko diver

>7S is not remarkable
It's fucking dogshit, it's hopelessly inaccurate.

>>13679025

The one I owned for about a year was absolutely acceptable but I think in the scope of actual mean gain/loss, you're right.

>>13678676
On the assumption that you made this pic after they were serviced, I did a little looking into what kind of amplitude those should have .

From what I can tell 1688 based hi-beat movements should have ~280-290 amplitude dial up, which suggests to me that the issue on both of those could be that they have worn mainspring barrels that are limiting their amplitudes.

Have you considered whether that might be the cause of the performance issues you've been having with both of those?

>>13679132
It seems plausible I guess. My main consideration is that this isn't really acceptable performance immediately after a service.

Have you seen any indication of what kind of power reserve these should have? I can take them off the winder and see how long they last.

>>13679138
I'll look into that. I did manage to find this report of a guy who serviced a Zodiac SST which showed ~280-290 degrees amplitude after a barrel replacement, and apparently barrels wearing out was a known issue on Zodiac SSTs:

http://watchguy.co.uk/service-zodiac-sst-36000/

http://www.vintagezodiacs.com/zforums/index.php?topic=2134.0

I don't know if the 32a's had sealed barrels as well, but it does seem to indicate that mainspring barrel wear was a known issue on at least some of the 1688 based hi-beat auto variants.

>>13679181
The good news is that if it does turn out to be a mainspring barrel wear issue, Jules Borel still has replacement mainsprings and barrels for the 32a.

>>13679254
That is good news, though I will have to find some place to get it serviced.

>>13679246
What watch is this?
I've got a cheap accurist and this one looks tight as fuck

>>13679308
It's an Accurist Celestial, a rebranded Citizen Astrodea. The watch has a second geartrain that rotates once every 23 hours 56 minutes (roughly) that drives the dial, so the dial shows the positions of the stars in the sky.

You Guys! I actually did it! I found the cheapest mechanical shitter alternative to a Rolex Explorer! I bought this HMT Poonata 5 years ago on Ebay for $12. It came with the ugliest strap I've ever seen and I never could find a a strap that went well with it so I mostly forgot about it. I was cleaning out a junk drawer today and found this metal bracelet that I have no recollection what it came from. Then I had a stroke of genius. The proportions look about right, the numbers at 12, 3, 6, & 9. It was meant to be.

also where do you do it? I can't just go to any old shitty watch place can I? Like at the mall?

depends what's wrong, could just need to be demagnetized which any place should do for less than $20 (or free), or it could need a service and replacement parts which could cost a few hundred dollars.

SARX is better. Same dial, same bracelet, same case, same level of finish, Only with titanium which is highly superior. And I guess a bit older movement, the 6R15. You are paying an extra 1000 for a tiny bit better movement (perhaps), and "limited edition", and you only get stainless steel.

You posted many lies. It's doesn't have the same dial, it doesn't have the same level of finish, not even close, the bracelet and the case aren't the same (different structure too) and it has a much worse movement. But I guess you're here just to shitpost. I think I saw your comments in these threads a few times. Same aggressive shit every time. That's just sad.

>>13680744
Thanks for the confirmation.

>>13678556

>>13680738
But it truly is the same level of finishing, just read the forums, and everything is basically the same, and the dial is a copy (or at least near copy if not an exact copy).
The SJE073J1 is slighly thinner, so there are differences, but the level of finishing is the same, and the movement is only a slight improvement. You cannot get away with the fact that titanium is way better too. Not to mention that the finish on a titanium watch is WAY more impressive. What a fantastic job they did on the sarx.

Wrong. The SJE is externally finished to GS standards including zaratsu polishing, obviously crisper brushed to polished transitions, and heat blued second hand instead of painted,

>And I guess a bit older movement, the 6R15.
The 6L35 is an ETA 2892-A2 top grade competitor. It is on another planet than the 6R15.

>Only with titanium which is highly superior.
Titanium has properties that are better in a tool watch, buy for a dressy sports watch I see no reason to unduly prefer it unless you strongly prefer light watches.

Not the guy who bought one, btw, just pointing out facts.

>>13680841
>Wtf are you even trying to say?

>>13680839
The SARX is finished by the same department that does the GS finishing too though. Even if they did something more with the SJE, I can't imagine you will notice it with your eye.
>and heat blued second hand instead of painted,
Fair enough.
But you are paying 1000 dollar more for a watch that is not really that different. Small improvements over the SARX. Movement is from what I can gather not on the level of ETA 2892-A2 top grade, but +15 to -10 seconds per day is quite OK.

>>13680835
>or two good watches
You play dumb but now you get it.

Morning, lads.

>>13680852
>Even if they did something more with the SJE, I can't imagine you will notice it with your eye.
I can notice it by eye in the pictures.

While you are correct that the same department makes both cases and bracelets, every polished surface on the SJE case is zaratsu polished like a GS, while the SARX models don't usually have any zaratsu polishing. That adds a fair bit of skilled labour to the finishing or the SJE case and bracelet, not even accounting for the crisper GS tier brushing.

The hands and indices will also have GS tier finishing which the SARX versions won't have, again because it would add too much to the cost of the case and bracelet.

>Movement is from what I can gather not on the level of ETA 2892-A2 top grade,
That's literally what the 4Lxx family was designed for originally, Seiko originally planned to market it as a drop in alternative to the 2892-A2 top grade in the ebauche market, but sales at the time weren't good enough so they sold the 4L to Soprod who did fairly well selling it as the Soprod A10, a highly regarded ETA 2892 too grade competitor that sold well in $3k watches as soon as you concealed it's Japanese origins to Swiss watch buyers.

The 6L is an updated version that improves upon the 4L by adopting Seiko's in-house high end shock protection system and a few other small changes.

The 6Lxx also requires massively more skilled labour to manufacture, assemble, and adjust than the 7S/4R/6R family, and 4L based watches had to be priced similarly to 2892 top grade models from the very beginning, which was why Seiko sold the rights the first time.

Seiko typically uses more conservative accuracy ratings than other movement makers and their -10/+15 rated movements have performed similarly to ETA top grade movements since even before the quartz revolution.

There's nothing to be embarrassed about in a world where most people wear quartz, fakes, fashion watches or nothing on their wrists. You might be in a position in your lifetime to afford high end watches but you will always remember your first Seiko. The Seiko 5 is an honest watch for the honest man with no need for hacking, winding or batteries.

Decent for a shitty beater
The 5s really have been getting better

can anyone recommend a watch that looks as close to this as possible and is also a decent quality beater? or is this decent enough? it had a ton of shit reviews recently but i really like the look of it

>>13681364
> budget

>>13681364
Just get a Hamilton khaki.

The timex is fine. You could also consider an SNK809 if you want to go mechanical but you get what you pay for.

>>13681364
Citizen BM8180.

>>13681417
Yes, although I would put the Speedy on a Black strap rather than brown.

>>13681450
i have looked at those and liked them (and a lot of seikos for that matter), but i like the black face+black case look more
i have an orient mechanical that i wear for dressing up purposes, but this one doesnt need to be a mech. just a solid beater. do you have the timex? does it stand up to wear and tear?

>>13681483
No, I don't own the timex. The timex will be fine for the price point. Black cases at this price point will inevitably wear quickly and look bad.

>>13681479
i like this, seriously considering it now. any personal experience with it?
i would prefer a black case but it doesnt look likely that i will find one outside of the timex

What do you think about my collection?

Hey guys i want to buy my brother a watch for graduating boot camp, any suggestions?

otherwise don't bother for the most part $5 trash marked up 10-100x

How much would it cost to fix a broken crown on an old swatch ?

what is a cost effective and plain/clean looking(with easily readable seconds) highly accurate analog quartz wristwatch? I know the Bulova Precisionist is supposed to be good but what are the other options

+/- 5 seconds a month is good enough preferably thermally-compensated and without radio correction. I just want something that will look plain but well made, not shit the bed in winter and allow me to indulge my autism for traditional navigation(where even if you aren't finding longitude you still need an accurate watch for sight reducing your sexant shots)

Where is the anon with his updated poorfaggot watch guide?
Post it here senpai
Any new changes?

What's the least douchey accessory for a watchfag, /wt/? Tanker boots, patrol cap, or wolf tooth necklace?

>>13681671
>What's the least douchey accessory for a watchfag, /wt/?
Another watch, dual wielding is effay

>>13681553
Yeah, it's a great watch. I've had one for over 15 years, the only problem I've had is the keeper on the strap broke so I put it on a nato.

>>13681681
Diver on one wrist, dress watch on other, so you'd be properly dressed for every occasion?

>instead of buying the two Swiss watches I own, I could have gotten this for the same money

Did I fuck up?

>>13681642
Most likely you can't/it isn't even worth the effort
Is the stem broken or is it another issue (like, dunno, crown stuck in case)?
Anyway swatches are designed to be disposable and can't be opened without breaking the case. This is why I hate them.
These plastic watches saved the Swiss industry during the quartz revolution, but they're overpriced because of " muh swiss made" and they lack a feature that even the cheapest of the fake casio f-91w has

>instead of buying the two Swiss watches I own, I could have gotten this for the same money

It's better to have some rotation within your collection
Wouldn't you get bored to have just one "nice" watch and wearing that all the time?
>>13681700
This.

>>13681700
>>13681707
got it in near mint condition on the used market

>>13681684
Beater on one and dress on the other

>>13681707
>>13681700
and this, which was probably a mistake.

>>13681684
heck no
the perfect combination is two casio f-91w
one for current time and one for chronograph
you'll have two alarms and a second time zone

>>13681717
>not wearing the two F-91W's on the same nato strap, Alien-style.

>>13681717
Sheik Osama approves

what grade is the 2824 in that watch? btw it doesn't look bad, just maybe a bit overpriced
>>13681734
The whole Chinese industry.

>>13681661
Sacm171 is the best haq under 500. Good proportions, dress styling, sapphire crystal, diashield coating, 10spy.
Longines vhp is next at under 1k. 5spy, sportier design, independent hour hand.
Then citizen chronomaster. Fantastic finishing (a half step under grand Seiko), 5spy, adjustable hour hand.

>>13681753
>what grade is the 2824 in that watch?
It's top grade but not chronometer. As it's more dressy, the lacking chronometer doesn't bother me that much.
>btw it doesn't look bad, just maybe a bit overpriced
Yea this bothers me. I basically just bought a name more than a watch. On the used market I could have gotten something a lot cooler I think.

>>13681753

>>13681772
Aeast you did good on the Omega!
If you feel unhappy with the TAG just sell iz and get something you like more.

>>13681780
Yea, probably be hit with a loss tho. I bought it for 1800 new, which was almost 30% off, but the fuckers still depreciate on the used market.

Anyway I'll keep it for now. I plan to get a Speedy Pro next

my vintage tiem peace
rate pls

>>13681772
>It's top grade but not chronometer
Good. Don't worry about chronometer certification, it is a marketing gimmick:
>COSC Grade watches are the best in the world"
>Required for the certification: be Swiss
Come on.
>On the used market I could have gotten something a lot cooler I think.
Or the same watch, but with the deprectiation hit by someone else. In alternative from a grey market seller from chrono24 or something with buyer protection
I hope you haven't bought that SARX homage at full MSRP, because if you want to sell it you'll lose at least 1k.
>>13681804
oh ok you haven't

(a little rant: dear fucking god i hate modern tag heueue
they were the first to start the vintage watch market craze with reissues of vintage chronos and adversiting of auctions, and now even other watches that kinda look like Autavias have doubled in price
it's a thing that has to be blamed on most of high end watch maisons now but they started the trend(fuck tudor too)
they still make that gaudyt and horrible "link" series
and 50% of the cost of the watches is in the brand
biver cease your existence)

I was new to watches and thought used market was a meme.

From now on call me by my cybergoth name /wt/, Technovirus Biomancer.

>>13681939
Unless it's a ref. 145.012, or 105.012, then not technically. If you want to be extra autistic then it's only those few actually worn on the moon which are now in museums which did (one of which is missing).

Rolex bumped up their service recommendation to ten years a while back but what about Tudor? Does the same recommendation apply to Tudor's in-house movement or do they still recommend every five years?

I'm not posting in a digital thread.

Hey I wanna get a new strap but cant find the dimensions for the Seiko snxs77? Anyone know?
