Why do celebrities literally never wear any watch below a Rolex?

>>14284937
>celebrities
It is that hard to figure out?

Hot take: a non-hand finished mechanical movement is an almost entirely machine-made product that has no more soul than a decent quartz.

>>14285120
Yes.

>>14284937
They wear whatever sponsorship deal they have.

Leo wears Tag, Clooney wears Omega, Cruise wears IWC...

>>14284937
Why would we lol

>>14285122
KILL

Yourself.

>>14285220
Deal with reality.

>>14285122
>implying human made objects have soul
>not making a bunch of highly trained monkeys do it

>>14285122
This is bait, or (You) know absolutely nothing about how mechanical movements are made. Any mechanical movement above the 7Sxx/Powermatic-80 level requires far more hand labour in assembly, adjustment and regulation than quartz movements do. High end production movements require large quantities of hand labour and/or proprietary capital equipment for functional finishing, basic decorative finishing, assembly, adjustment and regulation.

>>14285496
Adjusting a balance is child's play.
Breitling is famous for adjusting all of its watches to chronometer spec, and it's all done by a single roastie named "Rachida".

Also, mechanical movements are largely assembled by hand, outside of screwing major parts together.
And "basic decorative finishing" is also done by machine.

>implying human made objects have soul
The more something goes through human hands, the more soul it has yea.

>>14285501

*by machine

Ah, so (You) have no idea what you're talking about, or you're really commited to selling the bait.

>>14285542
Both are true though.

>>14285164
>They wear whatever sponsorship deal they have.
That's not true though. They have their own private watch collections that are different to what they're paid to wear. For example Gerard Butler is paid to wear Festina, normally wears Panerai. Hugh Laurie is paid to wear Hamilton, normally wears a Rolex.

Casio mudman or Seiko marinemaster?

Just landed my first job. A $60k IT position. Not glamorous, but I could have done a lot worse considering I'm a shit student with no skills. Anyway, now that I have cash, suggest me a $1000-$2000 watch for work purposes. Preferably something with a brown leather strap and small enough for a 145lb onions wrist.

>>14285819
Fuck off and die retard, I'm sure whatever fucking shitter wristwatch you pick will pair nicely with your black oversized polyester suit that you double button at all times.

/wt/ isn't for poor people or those with no taste, don't fucking dare think you can just jump in here and start asking what cheap shitty watches you should embarrass yourself with. Get some class or go hang yourself you fucking cunt.

>>14285819
Ignore the resident shitposter.

>>14285164
Cavill wears JLC because....they pay him to.
Celebs wear what they're sponsored to wear. Endorsements are very lucrative

>>14285819
Hamilton intramatic
Any Seiko SARW
Nomos club

>>14285819
You're supposed to wear a watch equivalent to your one month's salary, so just get a Sub or a Speedy.

>>14285905
Then why are you here? You have no money, class, or taste.

>>14285951
I have the most money, class and taste of anyone on /wt/.

Suggest watch

He says while bumping the shitposters thread

Whats the strap width for pic related? Gonna slap a NATO strap on this bad boy. Probably a solid coloured one.

>>14286175
Ding dong baby yeah that's a sexy digititator.

I remember Middle School :^)

>>14286233
>>14286218
/wt/ on /fa/ was a mistake. Fucking zoomer shitposters.

>>14286175
probably 20mm... might be 18 tho... It's gonna look stupid with a nato band though.

You can measure it yourself you know... You just need a ruler.

>>14286244
I'm 44 though, I only shitpost because I'm too poor for a Rolly :(

>>14286244
And I’m 36 tomorrow, and I own a Rolex. Just shitposting once every 4/5 serious post

Dumb boomer.

Seiko is a fashion watch?

Nigga pls

>>14287493
Yes.

>>14287505
What?

>>14290059
I mean, I did my research, but I can't find shit that isn't quartz.

There's this for example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkde5pp16_o

And it looks really good to me, but it's quartz so...

This is in reference to trying to find a chrono with a design similar to Speedy with a 1/100 second timer and I'm not actually sure if non-quartz ones even exist.

>>14285948
>watch equivalent to your one month's salary,
where did this come from? the preppy handbook?

>>14290853
Its actually 4 months salary.

>>14291076
t. goldstein

>>14291076
Actually the most based and redpilled is to spend 0.42% of your monthly salary on a luxury timepiece.

>>14291076
a third of a years salary
yikes

>>14291076
I think that's not the best gauge, because lots of people end up with way too expensive watches that way, I mean everyone has $2k/month nowadays so everyone would have a Rolex. With $2k/month you're supposed to stay with Seiko and Hamilton. Rolex is supposed to be $5k/month.

>>14291438
>60k a year
>Rolex
Wew

Any funky watches (quartz) that are nice, not digital, and under 50?

>>14291530
That's how it was originally supposed to be, it's a lower middle class salary so you get an entry level watch.

>>14291548
Lmao

I want a ROLEX SUBMARINER but they're quite expensive and also fuck having to suck an AD's dick and having to wait 12 months for one.

Would I be a loser to buy a discount diver instead? Something for $5000 or less. Or maybe get a meal deal for the same price as a Sub?

>>14291556
What?

The best dress man on television wears his watch on his right wrist.

https://forums.watchuseek.com/f9/anyone-haq-vs-mechanical-dilemma-4925765.html

What does /wt/ think?

>>14291562
Just get a $250 buck tisell sub now, then save up for three years.

>>14291665
I could afford the Sub now but when I try to buy one they say "sorry mate we cant get them".

>>14291693
Just be patient, I don't know what else to tell you

>>14291693
>>14291562
Why are you buying from an AD?

Subs are not going for horrendous markup on the used/grey market. We're not talking Daytona here.

I want to be back on /g/ :(

>>14291579
Rolex has been price engineered not to be an entry level watch anymore.

>>14291697
Be patient and then what?

>>14291699
Fuck paying a markup for something as simple as a date Sub and not even getting something that's 100% brand new boxed up and such.

Casio Edifice EQW-550D-1AJF as a daily beater, yes or no?

Where's his neck?
