This thread is about the appreciation of horology and the design, micro-engineering and material engineering that are required to make a functioning watch, clock, hourglass, or other timepiece.

Fuck me, /wt/. Turns out bringing in old shitters from Japan, restoring them and selling them isn't worth it. The organized crime gang knows as the Hungarian state decided to impose import duties on EVERYTHING I ordered from Japan. All 40-year old Japanese entry to midrange watches. Then when I sell it on Ebay, they'll deduct the VAT from the price it sold at which is 27% (highest VAT in the ENTIRE FUCKING WORLD). So now I'm looking at the state robbing me of about 40-50% of my final income, after importing, restoring and selling it. It's just not worth it anymore! I'm lucky I won't sell them at a loss!

Fuck this dirty post-commie mob state, and fuck all the voters!

in the larger scope of all horology, yes it is rather plain and vanilla from a company that isn't really known as a watch maker.

Is it a perfectly acceptable, white dial watch that goes with most outfits, and is worth a compliment? Yes. but also most normal people just look at the watch casually and not really judge the brand/movement/design cues like WIS do. You did good, continue to wear it in good health.

Those plain/plastic casios that people seem to find interesting on this board all of the sudden are totally wearable and functional but they certainly do not attract women.

That watch tells normal people you are weird and it tells watch enthusiasts you have poor taste. If a girl is ever attracted by a watch, it's because it may indicate the potential wealth of the wearer, not that she is attracted to the actual watch (unless of course she is a watch enthusiast, wherein she would likely not find those casios attractive).

I hope this clears things up for you. And if you were trolling, fossil is a fashion brand so girls may at least recognize that.

I'm fighting an internal battle on wether to buy pic related or just keep my piece of shit buyer's remorsed Skagen: what was I thinking edition. I've seen it in person and it looks stunning imo. The mechanism fascinates me to no end (the chassis is glass on the underside and the mechanism is visible). I've read the automatic movement is machine made and not very impressive but I've never owned a mechanical watch and I really can't get any more expensive than this.

Wow, I just got an ad on Youtube that Ikepod is relaunching on Kikestarter.

Only now they're "proudly" (their words) made in Hong Kong instead of Switzerland, and use Miyota quartz movements instead of Swiss mechanicals. Goddamn shame.

Pic is one of the original old Ikepods. They mostly made limited runs of some pretty eccentric watches in the 90's.
