/fa/ - Fashion

Any of you guys have a vostok neptune? They will be bringing them back around apparently. Not a fan of the integrated lugs since they like to use scrap metal for bracelets, but I still want one

Is this the best watch ever made?

Swiss perfection.

>>13892569
Neptunes use solid steel links bruh.

>>13892600

>>13892603
ah, good then

>>13892569
How can the Rolex Hulk even compete with this?

The Royal Oak is a love it or hate it watch, what are your thoughts?

>>13892720
Love the design personally. It's easy enough to see its influence on other watches.

>>13892720
It's an alright watch, I prefer the quartz version.

>>13892720
Hail Mary touchdown. Love it.

>>13892720
Looks bloated and boring desu. How much does one cost?

Lolz
What a piece of shit this is.

I'm thinking of buying this casio watch, should I get a black or white one?

>>13892759
White looks more sophisticated in my mind

>>13892759
black one

>>13892720
Literally a pretentious Panerai.

>>13892759
I'm afraid the glass and case is shitty plastic like the "casio royale"

>>13892768
yea I know that, I have a couple of casio watches but I just like the look of them for the price they cost

is there any g shock that isn't big af besides the dw5600?

help me choose please

>>13892777
>two-tone anything
Get the bottom if you really want it and change the bracelet you sad nasty faggot

>>13892778
What's wrong with two-tone? I just want something flashy for once. Already have a lot of boring stuff.

>>13892775
yes, look at a catalog of gshocks/the gshock bible. There are fucktons that aren't big, do any amount of research past the first page of amazon or ebay

>>13892780
Then get a all gold tone version

>>13892786
too streetwear

>>13892787
nah
a gold watch can make a formal-casual outfit less boring but then I am not american, everybody here owns gold jewelry because catholics apparently can't be baptized if they're not given a gold chain

>>13892795
Right, well I'm not American either and here in protestant Europe all gold stuff is considered very tacky and only hiphop/streetwear kids tend to have all-gold watches.
Two-tone is the flashiest you can potentially get away with.

>>13892759
White

Looking to get the casio protrek prg330. Its the lightest of all the current protrek models. Should i get black, pinko or wite?

I will actually go /out/ with it cause it will be a replacement for the very old (15 years old) protrek that i have. So i am leaning towards black or pinko because somehow they look like they wont mind getting it scratched up.

That said, one issue i have with my current protrek is the resin band wears out and breaks easily.

recommend me a watch to replace my citizen with.

top right is what I wear most days

>>13892800
This is why this Seiko is miles better than those awful metal g shocks. They’re gangsta af.

>>13892858
Just wear the Fleiger instead of the citizen. They’re fairly similar.

>>13892862
yeah I find myself wearing the flieger more than the citizen which is why I am considering getting rid of the citizen

at the same time I don't want to have more than 4 watches.

if I am getting new watch itch what style do y'all think I should be looking into?

>>13892869
Get the digital Seiko as above.

>>13892860
Why do you hate the gshock so much?
The metal version is alright

>>13892881
I love it as a watch but I’d only wear it if was black.

>>13892858
swap your citizen with the citizen in the OP to cover your dire dress watch needs desu.

what is the OP citizen anyways, I kind of like it

>>13892734
I would too if I was a retard

>>13892740
I'm sure all the garbage you own and aspire to purchase looks much better

>>13892763
panerais are ugly and you can't afford either, stick to vostok rubbish

>>13892884
stop posting those disgusting overpriced seiko shitters

>>13892569
960 is actually the best model. Small round case and pinned bracelet. It can't possibly fall off a pin so its a great option for actually diving.

>>13892911
I don’t really aspire to own any high end watch. I’m selling my only luxury watch now I’m red pilled.

>>13892720
>>13892625
>>13892600
I’m guessing this is the TGV effect at work.

>>13892858
What is the ref number of top right?

>>13892931
The guy is so powerful to these dorks. Tgv probably bought up 20 Royal Oaks and now he can sell them for inflated prices now the Gentry Cucks are aware of them.

>>13892911
fucking shitheads should stay in youtube and not come here ruining proper discussion

>>13892911
You’re a clueless cunt.

>>13892858
Yema watches have some pretty cool aesthetic

Were there any regular blue or black dial seamasters with the wave dial and raised indices like the GMT pic related has? The regular ones such as on the 2531 seem rather flat in comparison.

>>13893076
Looks like dogshit.

>>13893076
what were they thinking? it looks so bad

>>13893095
>>13893099
Aside from the glaringly red GMT hand what's wrong with this over the regular Seamaster?

guys should i get the sxk0013 or spend like 50 bux more for a samurai/turtle? I dig the size of the skx but i also dig the finishing details of the later

>>13893121
If you can get a Samurai over the SXK for a mere 50 bucks I say go for it. Make sure it's the one with the black dial though. The others look like shit.

>>13893121
Samurai is an awesome watch. It’s so much more solid than the SKX. You should get one. What colour are you thinking of getting?

>>13893142
either orange or pepsi. I really like the orange and the price is right. But fuck me i know size-wise the skx would look better on my 6.5in wrist

im kinda scared ill get a bad qc / returned skx though.

even the gold turtle is a pretty decent deal rn. Ive tried on a turtle, samurai, and skx009 (the bigger one) and still cant decide

>>13893150
I have a 6" wrist, have owned both, and despite being a bit bigger the Samurai was by far the better looking when worn, and got more compliments. So there's that. Go for the Samurai. If it were a case of 100 dollar difference it would be up for debate but at 50 dollars you literally can't go wrong.

Need a watch thats more casual than a dress watch but more dressy than a diver

>>13893177
orient bambino/defender/sun and moon. maybe a hamilton

>>13893177
hamilton khaki mechanical
orient defender
vostok komandirskie auto
basically any field or flieger watch

thoughts? will it cover my current collection for all my needs?

>>13892858

>>13893257
Meh

Is Seagull 1963 still good? Is there any other mech chrono that is a better value than this at the same price range? I'm about to pull the trigger and order it.

>>13893257
I think I’m in the same situation as you because i’m trying to round off my collection with something not silver and without a black face.

I really like the seiko you posted, but I might go for a bambino

good choice anon

So how big do your wrists have yo be in order to wear a seamaster planet ocean?

Which of the Komandirskie Classics are worth buying for an everyday shitter?

Should one even bother with watches if you don't have 20k+ on your wrist? I feel like anything less is just embarrassing

>>13893279
Out of curiousity, what do you mean by 'still good'?

>>13893304
None. They are garbage. Just buy a timex.

>>13893310

You probably bought the SE.

>>13893308
This. Only rich people deserve to know the time.

>>13893308

Then buy an Apple Watch so you can be an NPC like everyone else.

>>13892759
>>13892762
Both look nice. I would get the white one but with numerals instead of batons. I have it and like it so much more. But to each his own.

>>13892768
Yep, can confirm. The case is chrome plated plastic, it did not scratch so far, after about 1 year of almost daily usage. Glass is also plastic but not easily scratched. With any other watch i would have said it's total dogshit, but casio is not pretending to be something that they are not and the price is so cheap, i can't hate them for going plastic. If you want a metal version, get a SKMEI on aliexpress. They have one that looks like the AQ-230 with lots of color options.

Here is another glroious digi ana shitter. I love the ridiculous design.

>>13893309
What I mean is that I haven't been lurking watch threads in a long time, so I thought that there might be a better option.

>>13893150
The lugs are tiny though so it will work.
Buy it mate!

>>13893120
Applied indices look like trash on a wave dial.

Also those arabic numerals mixed with diver indices are fucking disgusting.

>>13893076
Yes, there were. It was the first Co-Axial Seamaster, ref 2220.80.

It's terrible, the look is bad and the movement is worse. It's Omega's first Co-Axial attempt and they are unreliable as hell, search the forums. Getting one that works well is luck of the draw. If you buy one, prepare for a full movement rebuild if you want it working properly.

Either get the successor with the plain dial, or the predecessor with the superb calibre 1120 non coax.

Great video of a guy dismantling a Miyota movement then a Swiss ETA (I think?).

>>13893331
That's one pure class ana-digi timepiece

>>13892600
>>13892625
>>13892720

I like the extra thin steel one with blue dial.. Can't quite justify spending in excess of €15k on it though.

>>13892931
>>13892963

I was kinda surprised that he bought one. Doesn't really seem like his thing..

>>13892768
>>13892770
>>13893331

Came across this the other day. Also ana-digi, but from what an anon said in here these are all-steel. Not sure if the crystal is plastic though.

I really like the look, and while more expensive than a Casio they're still well under <$100,-. Bit hard to find in Europe though.

>>13893346
Sorry about that...captcha was being strange.

At this price point, you can't beat the Chinese. It's a manual wind column-wheel chronograph...for less than 500$. No one produces one for less.

Have you decided on the size and colour combination?

>>13893433
Order one on amazon, ebay etc. You wont get customs for these kind of shitters.
Get a vintage piece if you can though, they always look better and are better built 99% of the cases.

>>13893443
>You wont get customs for these kind of shitters.

That's got a lot more to do with the shipper and the package/mail serve though.. For EU shipments it's usually required to attach an invoice on the outside of the package, and since package/mail companies can charge you for doing the customs check, they often do... I had to pay €31-something on a €65,- watch off of CreationWatches the other day.

>>13893451
>I had to pay €31-something on a €65
Fucking ridiculous..
What country are you at?

I suppose you can get one from ebay and message them to put like 20 usd value and thats it, depends on the seller though.

>>13893436
Aren't they like $200?

>>13893436
I have a thin wrist so 38mm and I want the black panda dial.

>>13893433
Fucking lol, i was just searching for this model to answer to this anon>>13893421
"Yeah, it's sad that they don't make many these days. Based citizen still has this one in production"

Yep, these are all steel, The glass could be real glass tho. Not sure. I like the blue white one. If they had it with numbers instead of batons, i would be sold. Just imagining those blue numbers makes my autism happy.

>>13893457
>Fucking ridiculous..
Yeah.. Rougly €13,- actual VAT. No added import fee because costs <€120, and max import fee for a wristwatch is just €0,80 anyway.. Then another €13,- 'handling costs', charged by the mail service. Also a few euros in change because some cunt filed it for 103USD instead of 103SGD (singapore dollars, about 20 euros less in total, so about 4 euros overtaxed)...

The main reason the costs are so high, which is also the reason the odds of being slapped with charges, are the €13,- the post company charges for doing the formalities. Something you do not ask for, and for which no alternative exists.
>What country are you at?
The Netherlands, but I imagine most European mail/package services do similar things.

>>13893315
I just see this shit in all the garbage stores in Moscow.

>>13893483
>which is also the reason the odds of being slapped with charges
*are so high.

The mail company doesn't pay the tax, so they don't care.. Filing the forms is probably an online thing, or something they can rubberstamp 284x an hour. So charging €13,- for every single item imported that costs more than €20,- is probably a godsent for them in these days.. Margins in the logistics world are very VERY thin.

>>13893483
Yea, in UK we have a £8 handling fee. Those fuckers must make a fortune.

>>13893483
Here you just get a notice if the customs have it and you have to fill a customs form, everything is free, but they also charge you customs for the postage you paid for the item.
I once had to pay 40 % the price of a cheap watch as customs tax.
Next time I will just lie about the postage price if it is an issue, they have no actual way of knowing how much it was.

>>13893508

Postage price and insurance is also included in EU/Netherlands, but if the shipping is actually free (as in, the 'SHIPPING' column on your invoice says 0.00) then you're not taxed for that. They don't look at the actual cost of sending the package, just what you're charged...

Also they combine stuff. So if you order 10 shitters that would be tax free in one package, you can still be taxed because the total amount exceeds the tax free limit.. Or 1 item that's just under, might go OVER if the shipping fee+insurance are on the invoice.

Apologies again...captcha is impossible today.

>>13893461
Depends on where you get it. There are several online dealers, and you have to factor in shipping costs and all those things. I said 'under 500' because it might cost you 250...it might cost you 400.

One thing that I personally considered when buying mine was to allot an extra 20-30$ for my watchmaker to have a look at it upon delivery, just to make sure the movement was sound. If you have a trusted watchmaker, have him look it over when you get yours, and he can fix or adjust anything that is wacko. With watches like these, there is no guarantee that they're in perfect running order after they've been shipped.

>>13893468
I have the 38, and it's awesome. I tend to normally wear 40-42mm, but honestly the size really doesn't make a difference because once you've worn any watch for more than 5 hours, you get used to the size regardless.

Black Panda dial looks cool; good luck with your purchase.

>>13893497

Sent a long letter signed with fountain pen, sealed in an actual envelope because even though they can track your package from Asia, and embrace all forms of digital communication they actually force you to buy stamps and an envelope if you want to reclaim costs..

I requested the €13 handling fee back as well as the overcharged taxes because paying for a sub par service seems a bit rich to me. That said, they'll probably take the chance that I'm not taking a day off to contest it in small claims court, and they'd be right.

>>13892625
That watch is UGGGLLYYY

>>13893308
This, but 5k because I'm too poor to get one that is 20k

>>13892777
Do not get gold plated, it's either 18k or bust

Which produce the better sub homage in the $500 price range, Steinhart or Squale?

>>13893587
Unironically Squale.
The name can be a minus though.

Does anyone knows the model of this watch?
Got it from my father

You can't see the time at a glance from that, also those are shit in low light conditions where the analog hands would still be visible.

There's a handful of posters in these threads that collect weird digitals and quartz watches.. Is it really that unbelievable?

The ductape rolls are a nice touch.

>>13893740

I bet he posts here anyway, even though it isn't you.

>>13893740
Some of those are actually very collectible, don't know if it justifies THAT kind of a price though.

>>13893767
Why would anyone pay that much for a fake?

>>13893767

I've never handled the real thing, and neither have most people, so who knows. The fact that the cyclops is tilted so that you can't see the magnification does't bode well though.

>>13893798
The fake cyclops are pretty good nowadays.

I have a tissot le locle with a leather strap, can the strap be replaced with a metallic bracelet?

CITIZEN WATCH

>>13894013
yes, it can be removed easily. all you need to do is pull the strap as hard as possible from each side, and it should detach.

>>13893780
It has a better finish and movement than any Seiko in that price range.

>>13894026

It's still a replica. Why would you literally LARP as someone wearing a Rolex?

I'm a noob when it comes to watch specifications. But why can't you go swimming with a watch that has 3 atm water resistance? Isn't it supposed to be able to go 30m deep under water and survive?

>>13894033

It's supposed to, but for some reason manufacturers have universally decided that 3ATM doesn't actually mean that it can handle 3ATM of water pressure. 30ATM 'Water resist'/50M is basically splash resistance, and 100M+ means you can reliably swim with it.

I don't really get it either, but that seems to be the thing.

>>13894065
>but that seems to be the thing
*in general I should say. There are certainly 50M-rated watches out there you can swim with.. I just wouldn't ever blindly assume you can just because it says so on the dial.

Can anyone identify this watch?

>>13894033
There's a lot of weird ideas out there about water resistance.

A 30m wr rating specifically means that the watch won't leak under 30m water equivalent pressure. If that were the end of the story, you could swim with it just fine (debunking of the common myth that when you're swimming your arm's movement through the water dramatically increases the pressure is here https://forums.watchuseek.com/f2/sigh-myth-busting-again-610734.html#/topics/610734 ). There's a number of complicating factors:

Unless the watch is certified as a Diver watch, it probably hasn't actually been tested. Standard wr watches are sample tested - the manufacturer tests, say, 1% of watches to ensure most of then meet the standard (there is an ISO process for sample testing you can look up if you're curious). Your watch may never have been tested, in which case it's up to the manufacturing consistency and quality control of the manufacturer whether.your watch is constructed the same as the samples that passed.

Seals can degrade over time. Even if your watch had 30m wr when it was made, it may not any more. As seals age they harden, which can make them less effective at sealing. To have faith in your watch's wr you should be testing it every year and every time it's opened.

If you've tested your individual with recently and it passed a 30m test, it is perfectly fine for surface swimming. The reason people often say "your watch needs 100m wr and a screw down crown for surface swimming" is a hope that such overspeccing will mean that even watches that haven't been tested are likely at least good enough.

>>13894069
I've swam with my f91w and it survived. I found it on holiday and it says 'water resist' on the front so I thought that meant I could swim with it. I still have it 10 years later and everything works fine except for the light. (f91w has 3atm water resistance.)

>>13894076
>Seals can degrade over time. Even if your watch had 30m wr when it was made, it may not any more. As seals age they harden, which can make them less effective at sealing. To have faith in your watch's wr you should be testing it every year and every time it's opened.

Tbqh it doesn't help that manufacturers typically put 'do not swim or shower' in the manual, even for 'WR' watches.

>>13894084

Yeah mines been in the shower accidentally a bunch of times. Pretty sure those are relatively water resistant from factory. Not necessarily if you ever change the battery though.

Terrible photo, will probably switch to normal wristshots soon like a normal person since the collection is growing, at least til I get a 24 box.

>>13894093

What's the sub-clone diver with the octopus on the dial?

>>13894089
What does what the manufacturer put in the manual have to do with how wr your watch is? Either it has been tested to be wr (either by you, or by the manufacturer in a Diver watch), in which case it is perfectly safe to swim with it to the tested depth, or it hasn't been tested, in which case whether it's wr is unknown.

The manuals that say "this 30m wr watch is not suitable for swimming" is simply an admission "we have no idea if this watch is wr, do not claim that it is, and will not accept warranty returns if it is not. The text on the dial is merely there for decoration."

watches are larpcore if they arent smart watches these days. like nigga u aint got a smartphone? u guys own pocketwatches too? pocket squares?

>>13894102
>u aint got a smartphone? u guys own pocketwatches too?
The irony in this.

Following the same logic, why get a smartwatch when you have a smartphone in your pocket? Getting a smartwatch is arguably even more pointless.

Absolutely not.

>>13894916
>>13894927
Yes, we are bringing this to bagel '19. Also we are working very hard on a transparent watch for the /wd/ giveaway, but there was no sr636sw battery in the store. Might drop the renders tomorrow.

I forget which hamilton this is, remind me. Most hamiltons honestly dont look very good but that one does

I've found some super aesthetic watches but get extremely triggered by the thought of wearing a gold colored watch that's not actually made out of gold

pic unrelated

Is there a version of this without the small seconds? I think the orient star semi-skeleton is beautiful but I hate small seconds.

>>13895081
Forgot to say, I know there's one that's not small seconds, but I'm looking for one with the additional 2 o'clock cutout.

>>13895092
in that case, no

>>13895100
That's honestly depressing

Rolex has become a meme watch, like Gucci and Louis Vuitton for rappers and sportsball players to brag about. Lots of knock offs as well cheapen the brand.

Rolex style has been copied by literally everyone, such to the point that when I see one, I think of a cheap $20 watch sold on a rotating display in a mall kiosk

>>13895175
I gotta admit, growing up I associated Rolex with rappers and new money retards, but now that I'm getting into watches I respect the hell out of Rolex despite how hard it's been memed by bad examples. Too much significance and too much quality.

>>13895459
No I took it at the beach yesterday.

>>13893767
If you look at the real one the ceramic has a little bit of a curve to it and you can see more dimension in the bezel

Also the PVD has a pretty distinct look, most of the fakes are painted

>>13895519
I was talking about the hands, very obvious here for example:

https://youtu.be/RGcHGx0aEvQ?t=795

On the real watch the hands are bowed the same way a road is to make water run off it to the sides.

>>13895530
Watch your own video at 10:36

He says exactly what I said.

It's much easier to tell its a fake based on that rather than trying to see if the hands are flat or not. The curvature is very slight

>>13895519
This is a real one, if that wasn't obvious

>>13895143
Man, the state of these threads with brandfags being entirely incapable of evaluating watchmakers on any other bases is than perceived brand status. Ugh.

Anyone looking at the nu-Sumo aka Seiko MM200? I'm torn between calling it a shitter due to overpricing or a great series of watches that is unfortunately being used as scalping material by the usual faggots.

>>13895566
forgot pic

>>13892858
Tisell Pilot?

What should I buy with my upcoming inheritance? i'm rocking a quartz tissot nato strap, but I want one (1) true luxury watch. It will only be a fraction of what I get.

I'm thinking Zenith, either El Primero or a Pilot. Don't want to spend so much like Submariner money.

Don't want something too complex and MUST have in house movement. Not spending inheritance money on a shitter

>>13895630
So around the 5k range then? If you want a solid three hander then look for an 114270. Maybe a JLC master control date (with the sector dial). If you want a chronograph then take a look at the heritage 146. The one nitpick I have with it though is it doesn't hack (unless I'm mistaken). The JLC master control chrono is worth a look too.

>>13895630
>upcoming inheritance

>>13894385
Fuck off you smelly paki cunt.

>>13895638
yeah, or maybe a bit more. 114270 looks nice, but I think I want something a bit less plain, I guess not really like a dress watch. even though that isn't one, I think the el primero or pilot type 20 says more what I'm after. was also thinking a moonwatch.

I feel like zenith is better value for money than JLC, especially if you get the history of the el primero movement

>>13895639
the body has been laid to rest, the estate is in the process of being distributed with lawyers etc.

>>13895638

Nice rep. It's crazy how good reps are these days, tempted to buy one myself for shits and giggles.

>>13895663
I went to a replica rolex authorized distributor and paid $8,250 replica dollars. It came with a replica box, replica warranty card, and a replica insurance appraisal

They even put me on the replica mailing list and I got the replica winter 2018 rolex catalog in the mail

If you dress appropriately, nobody will ever know it’s fake. Especially QT gold digging cunts in the club.

It also looks great as keeps time perfectly.

>>13895702
but you can't lie to yourself

>>13894031
My dad is one. He has a genuine sub which he kept in his drawer and wears a good rep whenever he goes outside. When I asked him about this weird behaviour, he said he did this to maintain the resale value of the Rolex. In his mind he commits no crime wearing a fake because he actually owns the real thing.

>>13895663
Finishing is still trash you dumb gimp.

>>13895714
How do? It’s the best finishing you can get at that price point.

Anyone know how many submariners are made per year?
Who here limited edition squad? 1 of 2500 for these two.

>>13894320
Nice baseddor

>>13895711
Whats the point of having something and not using it? You might as well dont have it in the first place.

And if you buy consumer goods as investments... why would you wear a fake? Its as if you invest in gold and then wear fake stuff on your neck Mr. T style because you have 4kg of gold to your name on the national bank vault.

is it safe to get seikos on ebay? are fakes common on there? the particular watch in after costs $1100aud at the Seiko shop but there is some dude selling one for $300 starting bid or $850 buy it now

looking through his feedback he seems to sell a lot of older /g/ stuff and looks like he has an omega Seamaster sold.

the Seiko watch is marked as new never worn. could it be he just bought it and changed his mind?

>>13895755
I will be soon (A long time as it's not even shipped from Buyee yet) boi!

>>13895566
I went to a Seiko AD with every intention to buy the MM200 until I put it on my wrist.

Seiko plz make a more normal sized 40mm version I beg of you.

>>13895519
>pale ale

Solid taste.

I worked on their new malting plant, pretty awesome brewery

>>13895832
The problem with the 6159 style models are overly long lug-to-lug length and lack of case curvature to make it conform to wristlet arms. You should see the gaudy and very American MM600 and MM10000, they're even worse than the 200 and 300. Only the Grand Seiko divers (pic related) are somewhat realistically sized in this aspect if you want a similar case shape, but it's easily pushing 8k burgerpesos and you will still be mocked by tryhard muh COSC fags. On the other hand the Tuna style models wear much smaller despite their humongous diameters due to their lug-to-lug lengths being comparatively very short, and on the bigger models the lugs are basically hidden under the case instead of extending out like the M&Ms.

t. tuna/fa/g

>>13895799
It really depends on the seller. My rule of thumb is usually if the guy has less than 99% positive feedback with 1000+ transactions then it's most likely a shitter. Of course a seller with 98.8% could have just had a stroke of bad luck and got that total rep only due to several dramas with petty buyers/scammers, but in general it's preferable to deal with drama-free sellers. Also, what model are you looking at? Creationwatches out of Singapore is safe and a lot of the buyfags from Watchuseek etc rely on them for Asia-only Seikos.

>>13892572
yes

A reminder

>people think fake seikos are a thing

Lmao

>>13895875
Who the fuck has ever bought a fake Seiko?
I get fake Rolex and Tudor, but why bother with a Seiko?

>>13895832
This looks okay though. The lugs are designed to hug the periphery of your wrist after all.

>>13895899
>This looks okay

Just got my speedy a little over a fortnight ago. Still in love with it. Thinking about getting a seiko tuna so I have a watch that I can wear in the water and then I'm fucking done.

Also does anyone know a good site for leather straps? I want to get a racing strap for my Speedmaster but I'm not sure whats good in terms of quality?

>>13895912
with those watches do you leave the chronos stationary when not timing anything or do you just let them continuously run?

Gonna buy a traditional handmade Hungarian pocket knife /wt/. The question is what shape.

One option has a handle shape of, say the Buck 110, the other the more traditional Hungarian curved handle shape, like pic.

Only it would have elk antler handles, with brass. Opinions?

>>13895912
Only two watches? Impossible.

>>13895799
why would you spend this much on a seiko? just save for a speedmaster or seamaster

>>13895931
So yeah, what I saw for sale kinda looks like this.

I hope /wt/ is still into folding-watches, like back on /g/.

>>13895947
A lot of Seikofags - me included - are absolutely turned off by Swiss watches.

>>13895958
poorfag mentality

Also post traditional knives from your region.

>>13895970
I'd rather have a $5,000 Grand Seiko or $2,000 tuna shitter than a Speedy or Seamaster.

>>13895912
I think the speedmaster will be my next watch to buy after my current sarb033 has run its time and I have 5k to blow.

You need to get out more. There are many industries the japs have taken over with better products at lower prices.

>>13895990

>>13895799
Ebay has really good buyer protection. Even if the seller says no returns, if you don't like your product they'll just give you back your money no questions asked.

>>13895972
congratulations on being happy wasting your money on shitters instead of buying something with actual quality

it's like saying you're happier spending $70,000 on a hyundai genesis when you can get a mercedes or bmw with much better quality, features and brand name for a bit more money

>>13895985
japanese watches are mass produced garbage. their best stuff, grand seiko, doesn't hold a candle to the best swiss watches

This is true, some cunt of a buyer just recently fucked me over this way.

This is what people said about swiss watches before they took over the industry.

>>13895558
>Man, the state of these threads with virgin poorfags whining because no one cares about their shitters. Ugh.

>>13896064
It's poorfags, and then other poorfags complaining that they aren't saving 5 grand for a rolex like them. Usually the most expensive watch you ever see in /wt/ is a speedmaster, and then maybe 1 person with a sub. This isn't a luxury watch forum, everyone is gonna have shitters. Also most people don't want a 1 or 2 watch collection if they like watches, so even if they have a nice piece they are gonna have 5 other shitters

>>13896077
You're confusing poorfags with people who simply don't think spending 5 grand on a watch is a good idea. For example I've got 20k in cash just sitting on a shelf in my closet yet I don't have or want a sub.
>saving 5 grand for a rolex

Thanks for the heads-up. I'll try the Tuna in the AD next but I'm rather worried about the height which seems to be an ill match with more formal attire.

Your dad is a fucken moron m8.. If you're really worried about resale value, and don't even wear the piece, why not keep those 8 grand in your pocket? Or the stockmarket for that matter..

>>13895879

They probably sell them as genuine. More margin that way.

>>13895879
There are fake Seikon and Sekio 5's in the third world. Mostly they have a very rough chink clone of a 7000 series Seiko.

>>13896180
Fucking why though? That's like making counterfeit 5 dollar bills. Why make something with a low profit margin?

>>13896186
See map.

>>13896186

Most counterfeitted Euro bills are 20 and 50. Why not 200 and 500? Because people tend to pay more attention to those.. Same principle I think.
