a real carved bronze version of a Panerai homage. What are your thoughts?

It goes to 100m, has bubble sapphire case, Seagull movement (good enough for me) and is £300 on aliexpress.

It would be a nice nightlife daily beater. A 'nightly beater', just like my wife.

I really like my casio mrw 200 for work and sport because I cant avoid massive scratches and shocks there that I wouldnt want to happen to an expensive watch, plus it actually looks way better than I thought on me.
I feel like it would be fun to relume it, because the standard lume really sucks and I enjoy a good lume. Which tools do I need to get to do this?
This is my list so far

What’s your point, friendo?

How do we feel about distressed (factory worn) cases?

>>14415914
Try it on a superengineer metal bracelet or a rubber/silicone strap. Both give good aesthetics, the rubber is more comfy and lighter, if light wearing watches are your thing.

Do you think Sinn will have any 103-like chronos with 1/4 minute markings this year or should I just buy a Guinand instead? I'm really torn on this, Sinn looks slightly nicer and has a more recognizable name, but Guinand has the 1/4 markings (however it has weird cut off numerals).

Should I just wait a year or something?

This is the Guinand in question btw.

>>14416026
Thanks bro. I feel it’s actually quite distinct from a Rolex on the dial with the contemporary font for ocean one. Also I think the green is darker than a Rolex kErMiT.
Also Nobody has asked if it is a Rolex or commented in any way.

PLUTA & CO: BTFO!

Is a SARB033 worth buying for 448 USD? It's getting harder to get and will likely increase in price even. It seems like the perfect watch for me as a wristlet.

>>14416201
Fucks no. It doesn’t even have the minute markers on the dial. That’s a cost saving measure.
Buy a citizen or even a Chris Ward.

>>14416210
Is there an alternative which is equally simplistic in its design and around 38mm in diameter?

>>14416156
>>14415914
Any QC issues? I've read there's been a lot of QC issues over the years, really stupid things that wouldn't make it past anyone who was actually inspecting the watch
I would hate to buy this and have to go through the hassle of sending it back for repair

>>14416243
looks good but too big

>>14416251
It feels perfect and the only two watches I'd like more is the SARX035 and the Oyster Perpetual with a dark gray dial.

>>14415817
That means that it is a etasa 2894 with a Dubois Depraz chronograph module over it. Not bad per se (Omega and Tudor do similar shit), but 49 jewels doesnt mean anything good.

If you have the date fucking the simmetry you might as well have the day for convenience. And still is dial colour etc.

What is today's equivalent to it? What is a "reliable tool watch" in 2019? Except GShock.

Just copped yesterday on ebay. Did I do good or bad?

What does a wristlet do if the Man on the fuckin mooooooon is too big? And no I can't KMS.

>>14416845
How is it too big? It's only 52mm lug to lug despite being 42mm, you'd need to have really tiny wrists for that not to work.

But other than kys, I'm not really sure what you could do. Suicide is a better option than getting the reduced. Maybe the FOIS is acceptable though if you're happy to settle for second best.

>>14416838
Iirc they were still expensive just not "luxury" prices. Something like 1200 in today's money so I'd guess a Garmin's or something. There's really nobody using a watch as tool anymore.

MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN

ON THE PHUCKEN

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNN

When reporting the accuracy of a mechanical watch, is it the average over a few days or so? My new watch is very close to 1spd but during the day itll randomly go to like -8s and then regain the time, then go to +5 and lose it so it's back to accurate by the end of the day.

Is this typical or a sign of a problem (should I invoke manufacturer warranty/get it services or not)

man on the moon is a shit watch

I have a watch that has 19mm lugs and the band I want to put on it comes in 18mm and 20mm. do I get the 20mm and cut it down, or the 18mm and ???

>>14417128
Yes it does retard, your tendons in your wrist will get thicker and more pronounced, I've already gone up a hole since I started working out 4 months ago.

>>14417433
Stuff the 20 in there and it will loosen up with wear or just use the 18

>>14417434
Not who you responded to, but I've been working out for 2 years and gained 45lbs of muscle but didnt gain any wrist size. I've even been doing forearm workouts. I just have a stronger taper

OH NO NO NO NO.

Is it a bad idea to buy a Frederique Constant automatic watch for everyday use? I dress casually (polo, button down shirts), never wear a suit for work as I’m a software developer.. I’m not sure on dives (too bling) or chronos (often too big).

>>14417662

>>14417434
Are you actually retarded? Even you're own evidence supports their claim. Your tendons becoming more more pronounced might might make your wrist circumference a bit bigger, but the top face of your wrist where your watch actually sits is set by bone structure

>>14417666
If the only reason you're buying a watch is because of the price, guess what, it's a shitter.

No one buys a Submariner and says "I only bought this because I couldn't afford X".

>>14417704

>>14416019

Theres enough variations of it though. I think the original is perfection though.

Maybe too dressy for your style. Id go for something more sporty; like a Certina DS1, Nomos Club Campus, Tudor BB36 etc.

>>14417765

>>14417730
But if I’m going to wear a 1K plus watch every day I surely will damage it. I can blow 25K on a watch but if I never wear it why would I do that?

>>14417854
No problem my dude.

>>14417855
Shoot yourself in the head you cunt.

>>14417845
And dont forget the bezel of the diver, which is enough to time any real life stuff (cooking pasta for example).

>>14417855

If you think you can blow 25k on a watch but you're worried about damaging it then you can't blow 25k on a watch.

>>14416564
damn feels bad when you have enough arm/wrist fat that your watch is flush with your skin.

>>14416851
My wrists are only 15cm or 6 inches. Watches look huge on me in photos because of the distorted fish eye effect. However 52mm lug to lug is really pushing the limit. I tried MOTFM on strap and that felt pretty good. I also looked at FOIS and really like it. But I'm afraid I may regret not getting the OG. You're right about reduced. That's a total shitter.

>>14416838
Anything that can sustain some damage without you crying over it. Something with decent WR and won't be damaged from doing basic chores or work in the yard.

>>14416564
WTF who wears a watch so tight.
>>14415798
Too well finished for a diver. You'd be afraid to scratch it up.

>>14417474
Love this watch. It's actually easy to wear since the size mostly runs up your arm. No lug overhang on the wrist. Just a tad too tall. Would make a great piece for fun in a larger collection.

Is there any point in buying a $2-3k watch at all? Just seems it would be better to double it and get a "real watch" instead.

>>14418017
Watches from 1 to 3k usually pretty worthless. You're right. Save up more and get something worthwhile. Use a Casio or Timex in the meantime. With watches its better to go super cheap or a solid luxury brand or model.

Best value watch on this thread right here.
Except for any replicas obviously.

>>14418016
>Anything that can sustain some damage without you crying over it. Something with decent WR and won't be damaged from doing basic chores or work in the yard.
Like what?

>>14418028
So there's no point in having a watch at all then, who would be dumb enough to buy one for $5k or more? Why are there no good watches for a normal price, it's 2019, they can make literally anything for $5 nowadays, so where's the problem with watches?

>>14418028
Everything above 100€ is worthless, stop being delusional.

>>14418054
Honestly, there is no point. It's just for hobbyist who think it's cool and ostentatious rich people. Buy whatever you like and can afford.

>>14418098
So if you like watches below $5k just use a smartphone instead?

>>14418160
No I guess I should expand. If you want a watch you can flip or will remain collectable then you'll want Rolex, patek, etc. Nothkng wrong with that if you have the money. If you want to be (or larp) as a rich douche the rolex is the only choice since that's the only high watch normies will recognize. Dont care if you do this either. Beyond this you might as well get whatever you want, since watches are fairly pointless as an instrument.

>>14416523

High temperature: 48 hours at 71º C followed by 30 minutes at 93º C. This under a pressure of 0,35atm and relative humidity not over 15%.


Low temperature: Four hours at -18º C.


Temperature-pressure: 0,000001atm and temperature raised to 71º C. Temperature then lowered to -18º C in 45 minutes and again raised to 71º C in 45 minutes. This cycle was repeated fifteen times.


Relative humidity: 240 hours in relatuve humidity of at least 95% and at temperatures varying between 20º C and 71º C. The steam had a pH value of between 6,5 and 7,5.


Oxygen atmosphere: Exposure to 100% oxygen atmosphere at a pressure of 0,35atm and a temperature of 71º C for 48 hours.


Shock: Six 11 millisecond shocks of 40g each in six different directions.


Acceleration: Linear acceleration from 1g to 7,25g within 333 seconds.


Decompression: 90 minutes in a vaccum of 0 10-6 atm and a temperature of 71º C and 30 minutes in the same vaccum but at a temperature of 93ºC.


High pressure: Exposure to 1,6atm for one hour.


Vibration: Three cycles of 30 minutes (lateral, horizontal and vertical), the frequency varying from 5 to 2000cps and back to 5cps in 15 minutes. Average acceleration per impulse 8,8g.


Acoustic noise: 130dB over a frequency range from 40 to 10000Hz for 30 minutes

Results of the tests :

Omega Speedmaster : gained 21 minutes during decompression test and lost 15 minutes during the acceleration test , the luminescence of the dial was lost during the test

Rolex Daytona : stopped running on two occasions during the relative humidity test and during the high pressure test when the sweep second hand wraped and press against the other hands

Longine Wittnauer : Crystal warped and disengaged during the high pressure test , same fault occured during the decompression test

Final conclusion : the Omega chronograph performed satisfactorily

>Because there are many reasons that expensive watches exist
Aren't expensive watches like $10-20k+ ? From what I understand everything sub-Rolex/Omega is just a really shitty/cheap beater category, but I don't get why they exist if you can get a shitty/cheap beater for a couple hundred bucks.

Like for example the Sinn watches, why would you buy them, when you can buy an Omega or some random Timex or some shit, why does that category exist? It doesn't show off your "wealth" if you have a 2k Sinn on your wrist, and it doesn't do anything that a $500 Hamilton doesn't.

Can you clowns rec me a good green dial swiss watch? Something like the Seiko Alpinist but less busy and not over $1000? I tried looking into Oris but I'm a wristlet or it goes above $1000

>>14418646

>If not's much I'd personally go for the Seamaster

My face

£3250 Grey market Seamaster
£900-1100 Used Oris Aquis

Money isn't an issue but I do like to get bang for the buck

>>14418653
I already told you. It's a combination of heavy marketing and people just liking some of the watches in that price range. Sinn watches are finished very nicely for the price, for instance. There is no point rationalizing watches further. They are not a necessary purchase. You buy them because you think they are neat, are a collector/flipper, or you wish to advertise your wealth. Or you saw it in a magazine ad. Likely a mix of all of them.

>>14418628
Seamaster looks much better. Why not just get the Aquaracer though.

>>14418678
But... Rolex says "I'm successful", Timex/Seiko/Casio says "I don't give a shit", Sinn/other affordable watches say... what?

>>14418675
I'm aware of the usual price difference but Omega can sometimes be found at Costco for crazy markdowns. I imagine you can find a second hand Seamaster in mint condition 2500

>>14418684
There are some people that buy watches for other reasons other than to signify wealth. See the above post.

>>14418751
forcing this """""""meme""""""" for so long and people still barely care

>>14418748
Well I don't want to look like an idiot if there's a more expensive version of the watch I like, I'll rather save up more or change my taste.

>>14418781
Post the sinn you like and we'll tell you if there's a superior version

Thoughts on Aliexpress mechanical sapphire watches like the cadisen?

It's highly recommended my the JOMW guy on YT

I think youre right, it has to be the seamaster, I have 1 omega already and was thinking I really should change it up. Seamaster what I really want.

If you want green get the oris best green watch, inb4 rolex

these results are non-translatable and marketing only.

>>14418820
I dont think theres anything better with that look

>>14418669
Not a whole lot of decent Swiss for that price, besides microbrands, Green Oris Aquis and maybe a Glycine Combat sub in green.

Consider the green Orient Kamasu if you're okay with not going Swiss.

>>14418878
So what should I do then?

>>14418922
If you want it buy it. I don't even understand the question. You can probably find one in mint condition for a great price

>>14418737

You're thinking too far into it. Nobody's going to see you wearing a Sinn and shit on it for 'only' costing a grand and not being a Patek. Most people will think what a fucking fancy watch that is. Buy the watch YOU want to wear.

>>14418980
>a grand
But they're almost 3k. Only 2k more and I could probably get a real used entry level watch that I could learn to like. This is very depressing, I used to think that any watch above like $500 was expensive, and I had no idea about this $1k-$5k gap filled with worthless meaningless watches that no one respects.

>>14418998
I think you're trolling but you might as well buy one of these then and shut up

I feel bad for you. Doing all this for others. Plus no one in reality cares about your watch.

>>14418998

Fine, 3 grand, I didn't look. Point is nobody but you is going to care that you 'only' spent 3k and not 5 on a watch.

If you really want a luxury brand in that style then look at IWC pilot chrono or Navitimer.

>>14419013
>.iwc.
Uhhhhh... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncrOse7XwWo

>>14419020
But Navitimer is almost the same price (and it looks really bad in comparison, like one of those mall watches with all kinds of shit on them).

>>14419144

Citizen are sick. So often overlooked.

How is the Glycine Combat Sub in terms of ETA shitters? Is it one of the better ones?

Seems well finished for the price.

>>14419434
The superior basic Casio.

>>14419335
Why would anyone buy a watch brand that sounds like a rectal lubricant?

>>14419144
They have nice cheap stuff. Loving my Proximity even being too damn big and with pretty basic finishing.

>>14416906
i actually like the new version better

>>14419481
i think your watch has skin cancer f.am

>>14417765
I'm in love with these special editions even though everyone else thinks the dials are ugly

>>14417853
>>14417837
disgusting

>>14419498
I love that watch and the side of the moon series in general.

>>14419498
I like it too but I'd have to be rich enough to own multiple Speedys before I'd buy one of those.

>>14418820
Speaking of Sinn, I'm still looking for a lookalike of this watch but with a display case back, I've been thinking of either getting a new version (which doesn't have my autistic obsession - the 1/4 second markings), and replacing the dial on it with an old dial if it's possible to find it, or getting an old version, and a new transparent case back, if it fits.

Does anyone know if any of these things are actually possible to do or am I just imagining things that I won't be able to order/buy/change/whatever.

And I'm still thinking about that Fortis...

>>14419498

I'm a big fan of the Alaska Project. Absolute beauty. Not as drastic a change but the Tintin looks nice as well.

>>14419630
kek the fuck is that

>>14419635

Speedy specifically designed for use in space. Reissued about 10 years ago.

What exactly is this thing?

>>14419682
I'm no expert but it looks like a shitter.

Two days in, how's everyone's week treating them so far? A solid two days of more work than I anticipated, that's me so far. Time to play some Bloodstained and relax with a toke. Happy Tuesday to you all, i'd love to see all your watches!

Flyback chronograph. Dodane was used by the French military. Very cool watches.

I'm ready to buy my first "real" watch what should I get?

>>14420278

Budget?

How is Bloodstained?

>>14420426
Is Longines TAG Heuer-tier? They have very similar mall-like design.

>>14420437
You May Not Like It but This Is What Peak Performance Looks Like

>>14420440
I like the mall design though.

Why are these supposed to be bad again? And is there a better equivalent?

>>14420448
Fortis? Literally who?

>>14420461
>Fortis also has the distinction of being the first watch worn in open space during a Russian spacewalk, and becoming exclusive supplier of manned space missions authorized by the Russian Federal Space Agency.

>>14420499
and the first watch worn on a spacewalk by an american was a breitling iirc.

>>14420513
>The honour of being the first Swiss wristwatch to go into orbit belongs to Breitling, thanks to the 24-hour Navitimer worn by Scott Carpenter when he lifted off three months later.
There's so many brands associated with space (including TAG Heuer lol) that I don't get how they don't market it better.

>>14420522
omega must spend phenomenal amounts of money on this little marketing monopoly they've got going

>>14420434
It's good. Only played for two hours so far, but if you enjoyed any Castlevania in the past regardless of genre you'll like it.

>>14420544
Fortis is clearly the superior watch

>>14420544
wtf I want a Fortis now

>>14420544
I don't know if it's in this video or the 10 years of having a Speedy video, but the guy sounds so defeated while trying to talk himself into believing that the hesalite (that he cracked and replaced at least once) is just fine.

>>14420544
his speedy doesn't hack? wow. I assume the ones that were actually used in space had a hacking movement? How the fuck could they not be hacking?

thoughts?

Is a 36mm Explorer really worth the almost $5000 they go for now? I've been saving for one for a year now but obviously the bubble keeps growing. Should I just go back to shitters? Settle for a Tufor?

>>14420544
I wanted to get that or a similar Fortis a while ago but I realized doesn't have the display window on the back.

>>14420766
the one in the video does have a window.

>>14420766
Oh shit, this one does, nice. I was looking at the "official cosmonauts" version I think.

He has a comparison video of those two.

>>14420763
If price is a concern you probably dont love the watch enough for the purchase to be worth it.

Go to some pre owned dealers and find out.

>>14420763
OP39 is better

>>14420811
Shut the fuck up retard, no it isn't.

You cant really say which of the two is better, just matter of taste and which fit better your wrist and personal style.

Fuck no. The movements are not reliable at all. Just look at the twat from bark and jack. He’s had to get his repaired twice in 2 years. Not worth it mate. Get a bb58.

>>14420816
the OP 39 is. end of discussion. I'm not even the other poster.

the white OP 39 will be historic.

>>14421410
bb58 in the light looks yellow. yellow bezel markings, gold hands, it's wretched. I had to sell mine, just a putrid colorway. wait until those retards at tudor get their game back, 2019 was the worst baselworld in Tudor history.
