I want a watch with the best countdown timer in the world.

I don't care if it loses 5 minutes a day, all I want is something where I can comfortably set anywhere from a minute to an hour on a timer within about 2 seconds, and when it's done it vibrates on my wrist silently.

>>15258279
Casio watches and jizzin’ on anime figures, name a better combo. I dare you.

>>15258363
Just get a smart watch. As far as I know there's no watch that vibrates for the alarm unless maybe some of the new g-shocks do.

>>15258383
Anything with a one day battery isn't smart.

>>15258363
Just get the Casio world time. The countdown feature is super easy to set up and it rings pretty loudly.

>>15258363
There are a bunch of Casios with a vibration alarm feature. However it might be a hassle to quickly change the timer, maybe if you are ok with it taking 10 seconds instead of 2.

>>15258234
Reporting in.

>>15258363
Smart watch is the only watch that’s gunna do what u want it to do.

>>15258163
Fuck I want this. Seems pretty hard to find.

>Daily Mechanical Watch For Motorcyclist?
Depends, are you riding for real or just to the pub and back home? If for real then any G-Shock, I'd take a square with bull bars and a NATO/elastic strap you can get over your glove so that you can just keep it on the glove when you take it off.

Big huge ones like Rangeman/Mudmaster/whatever if you're actually doing serious touring and such.

Oh yeah, the mechanical? A Rolex of your choice to keep in your vest pocket until you get off.

Are NOS short-hand chinese shitters the best shitters?

Anyone else had an Accutron? This was my grandads, recently came back from service. I have to keep it in a draw when I'm not wearing it because the tuning fork vibrates so loudly. It sounds like I have tinnitus. Love it though and it means a lot to me.

>>15258453
Nice watch. Where do you get yours serviced? Local shop?

Thanks anon. Local place said parts for them are obsolete after making me wait over a month. Then sent it to Croydon Service Centre who seem to be the only UK place who do Accutrons who fixed it no issues.

>>15258605
The accuracy is the same as in regular Seiko watches. Heimdallr probably doesn't regulate from the factory but then I don't think Seiko does either. So really what's the issue?

>>15258575
Very nice, did you pay much or was it a lucky find?

>Add some needless seconds numerals on the chapter ring that nobody will ever have a use for?
>You've got it, Mr Nakamura! That'll drive them nuts!

>>15258181
Diameter is not everything. I have 6.5” wrists and an older submariner fits perfectly. The newer maxicase is way too big due to the bigger lugs and crown guards and overall bulkier design even though they are both approximately 40mm. Probably the most important thing to look normal would actually be that the lugs do not span all the way across the top of your wrist

>>15258769
You don't want to know what minute it is? You stupid?

Hi, I am looking for watch 250 or under, preferably Seiko. I would want a brown leather strap and a blue or white face. Maybe even black depending. Can I please get some recommendations? I'm a noob so you can shame me

>>15259005
Seiko presage might be out of your budget so look at Orient. they're owned by Seiko

>>15259016
Perhaps something like:

Or

Thoughts?

>>15259040
The seiko one is quartz

>>15259057
and quartz is not recommend? Sorry if dumb question.

>>15259040
I like a simpler dial. I would go with the Seiko. Nothing wrong with quartz.

>>15259130
Pretty clean looking.

>>15258872
You realize you are actually the autistic here. Most watches have minute markers

Any straps I can get to dress this down a bit? Just not a fan of black leather and it's such a thin watch it's hard to find one that doesn't overpower it.

>>15258822
The second iteration cheats out a little

>>15259130
very cool, what model

Lads, I need your final advice before I pull the trigger.

I'm the anon that used to have a blue Orient Mako 1 that got stolen.
-I've decided I don't want the Seiko SKX007, because it is too expensive at the current price of 285 euro
-I don't want the new Seiko 5 sports diver, because they aren't a proven reliable watch, even though they're only 180 euro.
-I don't want an Orient Ray, because I prefer the Mako...

So that leaves me with the Orient Mako 2 with a black dial. Black because I already had the blue, and I feel blue is out of fashion and replaced by green (just like the Rolex Submariner Hulk that is now extremly popular). Besides that I feel like black is the most versatile for me, a guy with only a few watches.

It's only 136 euro. Do I pull the trigger or not?

>>15259193
get the turtle

Now that I missed my chance with Speedy and it went well over 4k, what can I buy for below 3k that's still a respectable luxury tool/sports watch?

>>15259195
I was thinking about that, but they're quite expensive here at 380 euro.

>>15259193
it's less than 150 euros for a watch that is better than the skx and looks versatile enough to wear literally anywhere. black is the most versatile color. go for it. although if you already have one I'd rather just buy a different watch later on.

>>15259193
How did it get stolen?

>>15259222
IIRC his brother's girlfriend stole it.

>>15259193
It's a good watch. If you liked it before, you will still like it. Personally I like the sunburst dial of the blue one, but black is very versatile. Sure, buy it. For 150 jewros you can't really lose.

>>15259224
>is brother's girlfriend stole it

Getting a watch for a graduation gift. Something $3-5kUSD. Any ideas where to begin? The newer Seamasters looked nice.

>>15259255

What features do you want

>>15259198
Depends, how do you feel about German designs or
>>15258730

>>15259278
I'd get a Sinn if they weren't ridiculously thick and if they were in the same tier as Rolex/Omega on watch-rankings, sadly they're below.

>>15259204
Whoah jeez, I got mine for 270usd

>>15259273
Automatic, rotating bezel, strong/well built. I'm pretty fixated on diver watches so far in my searching.

is Tissot respectable as a poorfag watch the same way Seiko/Orient are?

>>15259295
The various Omega Seamenmasters are all good. The new movement is actually really impressive so you realistically will only have to service the watch like 2-3 times in your entire life and don't have to think about magnetism at all, the colors are good and look better in person, and while they have been ping ponging around with design ideas for a while they are reaching something close to a fusion between contemporary boldness and their classic designs.

>>15259341
Are you talking about the co-axial? I’ve been reading about it seems interesting. The Seamaster looks sharp to me and a watch I could wear for multiple occasions.

Yes, the Master Co-Axial. I'm always wary of marketing hype but that movement is the real deal

No, merchants are psychopaths. See Uncut Gems

>>15259466
Nope, no one likes it, it's basically "HA HA IT'S NOT A ROLEX" hand, it sucks.

>>15259477
I like it better than the Mercedes hand. I can’t stand homages/rip offs and they Seem to always have Mercedes hour hand.
Does the snowflake have any kind of history to it? Or was it just what Tudor picked after they stopped using their Mercedes hand? Didn’t they have it before Rolex? Or am I not right?

>Diver on a leather strap
please tell me you don't do this

>>15259480
It's literally a "HURR DURR YOU GET A BLANK SQUARE FOR BEING POOR" why are you overthinking it?

>>15259480
pretty sure tudor subs started with the mercedes hands then switched to snowflake in the 70s then switched back to mercedes in the 80s. IMO the snowflake hand looks alot better when you have a proper snowflake dial with the square indices (the pelagos does for example wheres as the black bay line doesnt)

>>15259517
Pelagos looks like utter shit. "HI MOM I'M A SQUAREX" it's fucking embarrassing.

Please identify this watch, thanks.

think it would work with a gold bracelet?

>>15259691
no

would ruin it

Thoughts on the Omega planet ocean? I'm not familiar with dive chronometers, do they manage to combine the resilience of divers with the functionality of chronometers, or are they shit at doing both?
Wondering why NASA would select a watch that can fog up if you take a hot shower next to it, while the same company offers a dive chronometer for roughly the same price.

>>15259696
*chronographs, I mean

>>15259696
first off space is not known for moisture and the planet ocean chronometer may not have been around at the time nasa was launching the memewatch into space
second, that watch is not terrible, both parts function. but what's the point? it looks ugly

>>15259198
The yourself a soviet pegend! It's like the speedmaster (black chrono, space and all that shit…) but cheaper!

>>15259466
>Real talk, do Tudor fans like the snowflake hour hand?
I never understand how the hell those are called "snowflakes". The mercedes hand in Rolexes? Sure, obvious. But snowflake? WTF? Or is it because it triggers snowflakes like >>15259477 ?

>>15259528
>>15259583
How are these two even remotely alike?

>>15258442
I do actual riding. Have 2 bikes. No car or even car license. I ride all year, all weather, daily commutes of about 120km. Also do a bunch of touring.

I also already have a G-Shock GX-56 and will look into elastic straps. Thank you!

>>15259738
why do you keep replacing L with p??? not only is it gay and cringe but its wrong L is Л.

>>15259528
the snot green lume, also you're probably a twink and couldn't pull it off

>>15259593
Mostly, yeah, but it's still there when it's quiet. Partly why they never caught on. Apparently the level of noise varies even between watches of the same model as well.

>>15259804
>I also already have a G-Shock GX-56
I think that is literally the perfect watch for everyday riding, but as it tends to go with bike gear in general, it's a bit unwieldy when you get off. Personally I wouldn't wear any expensive mechanical watches while riding even in my pocket, and definitely not on the wrist since sleeves come up and gloves come down very easily even when you fall while literally parking the bike. If you really want a mechanical beater, it also depends whether you're planning on wearing it between the glove and jacket so that you can see it, or will it have to fit below the glove/jacket sleeve, which excludes the really tall watches like for example whatever the Sinn chrono ref is, and whatever the Marathon chrono is, those two would go rather well with bike gear aesthetically though.

Anyway if you must wear a mechanical watch, I'd go with a relatively inexpensive field/pilot watch with a low profile to tuck it under the sleeve, which would probably be a Hamilton or something along those lines. Depends on what you're wearing and what the bike is too, if it's a cafe racer then it would go well with a retro pilot watch, and so on.

>>15259815

>>15259833
>Anyway if you must wear a mechanical watch,
The answer is the right one on this pic:
>>15259838
I use mine for mountainbiking all the time, and a long downhill on gravel roads and trials puts a shitload of vibrations on the watch and it's still working quite good. Need to crack it open and reegulate it, since accuracy went to shit, but other than that, it just works.

I hate poor people

>>15259856

>>15258872
The day function is one of the most helpful

in my job we dont really get reminded of what day it actually is, so its helpful to know when i do need it

How do you guys live with the fact your perfect watch is never going to exist?

>>15259858
And I also hate people who cope with being poor

>>15258140
My casio fits in well with anything, I put that on and i'm good.

>>15259528
i wouldnt really get a watch from a knife brand

and its like $1000....for a quartz
there are military /outdoors focused brands like luminox if you want that genre

>>15259881

should i buy a rolex with 3/4 of my inheritance money?

thinking of the hulk

Does anyone know that feel when you want to buy a new watch, watches even, and you have the money for it, but you don't do it, because it would just be a stupid waste of money?
And the watches you're on the verge of pulling the trigger on, are all cheap shitters anyways, even though you've go Rolex-tier money just sitting around doing nothing.
And then you think to yourself
>maybe I should just invest that money into a watch?
and then you realize that this is more like gambling and a very stupid way of "investing".
And this goes on for way too long, meanwhile, all the expensive watches you had the quick brainfart of "investing" in, get more expensive every day…
>pic related

>>15259928
Even at 3/40th, that sounds like a stupid idea.
But go for it!
If you're that stupid with money, you're bound to loose it anyways, and with the Rolex, you have at least a pretty decent chance to get some of the money back, should you actually need it for something useful.

>It's so hard being a trust fund kid these days!
True.
Hard working folks don't even know how hard our life is. Really stressed out right now. I mean, look at pic related. Since about 4 months, I contemplating whether I should buy it or not. I can't get it out of my mind, but I also can't pull the trigger. Loosing sleep, getting grey hairs, can't function.
It's hell.

>>15259939
Quite so. I do so envy the life of simple people with their simple amusements. But were I to acquire merely a $60 far eastern homage, I'd be practically urinating cash away to inflation! No electrician, construction worker, or binman can truly understand the hardship and rigours of wealth.
And I agree, truly our circumstances are outright as though the work of malevolent demons.

Any poor people who want to see my Rolex?

>>15259930
why is it a stupid idea
it is free money for me

>>15259942
Oh to be a simple man. To just give into the pleasure of the instant gratification of consoooooming. Or to be the simplest man and to just buy a Rolex.
Alas, ‘twas not to be. I shall wear my hard fate with pride and optimism!

>>15259955
Go for it! And spend the rest of the money on hookers and blow! No need to make good use out of free money.

How cheap are good watch movements? I've heard even ETA movements or equivalent Swiss movements that are found on luxury brands like Panerai are quite cheap (sub 100$).

>>15258140
any nigga know if i can change the band of this one to like just a plain regular nato band or something.

went to a repair shop and they wanted 200 bucks for just the replacement leather band, and i paid like 100 for the watch

well, post a pic of the back then.

>>15260011
sorry for the shitty lighting, don't know how to use the flash on my phone because apparently i'm retarded

>>15260024
WTF happened to this strap? did your dog eat it and then you tried to clean it with battery acid?

Seems like it's a normal springbar, but a non-standard band. I would suppose you could do cheaper than 200, but it's definitely a weird size/form.

>>15260025
i've worn the shit out of this watch every day for like 4 years, and i guess the glue holding the shitty thing together just melted

>>15260024
you cant do a nato, but you can probably buy normal straps and then cut out parts to fit the lug? like pic related

you can get cheap straps from AE to try it out

>>15260024
Looks like the watch has under-sized lugs. You'll need an adapter that fits in there (it's what, 14mm? 12mm?) and then provides another set of bars at 18mm or 20mm or whatever for you to put a single- or double pass strap through. Those things are sold for Casios and should be readily available on amazon, aliexpress, etc. if the local watch shop doesn't carry one (and why should they, $200 to change a strap sure sounds rich for them).

>>15260047
measured it, seems like the lug width is 16 mm, i'll take a look at adapters, sounds like a good idea
>>15260045
yeah, i've been thinking of diy-ing something, but then i'll have to do as seiko did and glue whatever strap i buy to the existing lugs unless I get an adapter as mentioned in the other post

thanks for your suggestions and help!

Dont listen to faggots that say mechanical watches are unsuited for motorcycles. I used my Orient Mako 30.000 km in 12 countries in weather from -10C to +37C from hail to soaking rain. And it is still working.

Does the Casio LCW-M170 hawe an audible tick?

throwing this out here since nobody on /g/ seems to know: what durable beater wristwatch for use with a chest strap heart rate monitor? I don't need GPS, phone sync, any of that shit, but I would like something that has a user-replaceable battery or at least lasts longer than ~2 years which has been about the lifespan for my otherwise satisfactory (if rather ugly) polar ft1

>>15260439
I would say it's very unlikely to, I have a Duro and an mtp1246 and I can't hear the tick on either of them and they're both cheaper than that casio.

Have you considered an apple watch

>>15260519
not sheriff I'm being memed on here but I think my first "give-up-and-join-the-21st-century" option is probably just a Garmin Instinct

>>15260378
That's pretty much the exact opposite of how it works. Micro brand can change names and not be out much, that is not really an option for an established brand with 100 plus years of history. Most micro brands simply can not implement the same QA processes that larger manufactures can. They out source most if not all of their manufacturing from several sources and have them assembled by under trained workers. That is if you don't just have someone make it entirely and just slap your name on it. for word of mouth just pay some people to review it on youtube, post in forums, intagram, etc. The truth is they are targeting people who do not really know enough to judge the quality of a watch. Their customers get all of their watch knowledge from web forums that will circle jerk themselves into believing that a certain watch is almost as good to just as good as the watch they actually wanted but couldn't afford.

>>15260540
what QA? timex has shit watches and seiko has shit straps and outdated movements for their entry watches but they get away with it because of "muh heritage"

you are confusing microbrands with fashion watches. The core audience of microbrands are actually watch geeks who are very much into all kinds of watches and know their quality. Nobody except the hardcore will pay $800 for a watch from a microbrand. You are lumping brands like Zelos with brands like DW

I can't figurw out if I want a pagani design or a heimdallr sub homage. Is pagani design really any good?

>>15260658
putting "sapphire" and "100m" on the dial is just so cheesy but the watch looks cool anyway, though I'm pretty sure seiko makes sick enamel dial presage versions of this that you can routinely get for like 500 gray market so maybe you want to save for that

I want an enamel dial watch so bad, guys.

Can't afford it atm so I'll just shitpost about it with you guys here.

I know breguet is famous for their guilloche (or at least they're constantly shoving it down everyone's throat) but damn, their enamel dials are just so much more handsome to me!

No, I know exactly what you mean by "Micro brands" which is just a marketing term for what I described in my last post. No actual "watch geek" is lusting after an unmodified ETA clone movement thrown into a Chinese made case with a logo on the dial from a company with no horological significance printed on the front. Their actual target market are people that are too impulsive to save up and buy an actual good watch. Zelos is Chinese garbage.

>>15260855
Yes.

>>15260036
That's a nice one. A leather strap will fall apart after years of daily wear no matter how good it is, you might want to put it on rubber. How? You'll probably need to look around for an original one or jerry rig one onto the metal link that connects the strap to the watch. Or you can put ot on a nato strap. Look that up.

>>15260394
That sounds literally perfect though, as long as she's really hairy.

they have proven their quality and 90% of their catalogue is constantly permanently sold out. The mako 3 with the whirlpool is one of the best dials ever made in recent years.

Pro Tip: If you don’t have the money on hand, don’t buy an expensive watch with credit.

>>15258664
>mother of pearl

It's so obvious that it's a watch for women. And the price is just casio cashing in on the fashion retards that keep bying their third world models for way too much money. Even zoomers seem to not know how to look things up on amazon.

pic related was the price for a silver aq 230 i saw a year ago at a big mall in germany. And if i recall correctly, even saw a gold plated one for about 59€. I got my silver aq from amazon for 20€. Amazing how casio got so popular that malls can raise prices for these super cheap models.

>>15261322
You are the retard here. It's obvious that it was shitposting, the thread is full of it, every thread, newfag.

>>15261362
why would women want a geeky nerd watch like that and not a fashionable oliva burton or michael kors shitter?

>>15260920
I never said all in-house movements are better, I said no who is an actual "watch geek" is going to go out of their way to purchase a generic low grade ETA/Sellita/Miyota.

iphones have nothing to do with watches and are not even a good example of high quality manufacturing. A lot of swiss brands are shit.

Being permanently sold out is because of how they order their watches. They place an order with a factory that then orders all the parts and assembles the watch. Zelos is kickstarter fundraising company that outsources all of manufacturing and assembly. They are not good watches and if you own one you wasted your money on shit.

>>15261362
They're selling knock off casios in the normie stores here, strangely they also sell legit ones at the same price or even lower, but still at around $60.

>>15261395
The younger ones can't afford the fashion watch scam shitters.
It's mostly because of instagram
>girl sees some influencers outfits
>influencer gets a cheap, gold toned watch to compliment outfit
>casio is one of the cheapest but looks iconic

It was the silver and gold digital casios that became popular again and the aq 230 followed afterwards. Also, olivia burton never was popular in the EU. Michael kors is still kinda hot, but more for the bags and less for the watches.

>>15261168
all of it #yolo

>>15261405
Jesus, i was thinking that it's a yuropoor thing with the high prices, due to the taxes. But apparently the whole world is banking on casios. What country are you in? I mean, what kind of $ are we talking? And for how much do they sell the knock offs for?

I'm in Sweden, and they're selling both a legit A168WG-9 and their knock off "Retroddiction" for 598 SEK ≈ 60 USD, with plastic variants being slightly cheaper. I suppose that their selling point is that they can offer more wild colors than casio but still.

>>15261426
>not posting the olexesh casio, aka the rolexesh

But seriously, germanys rapgame is super lame as usual. Our shitskin arabs are just not original enough to make something good. It's always a copy of the US. At least their noggers have a bit more creativity in creating gang culture and the jewish music bosses know how to blow things out of proportions and make money with pseudo gangsters.

>>15261440
Oh wow, that's way too much for the cheap color options. You can find similar stuff all over aliexpress for way cheaper. And even less when you order directly from factories. Well, as usual, uninformed consumers get fucked over. But in this case, they deserve it. Even withs swedens standard of living, i couldn'T look at the price of that casio knock and think "yeah, that's actually a fair price for that thing."

>>15261447
Don't bother explaining the credit system to a retard. He will probably say how in debt the whole US is, not realising that it's mostly brown people that cause most of the credit card debt.
Every developed country, under the kike banking system has this credit rating improvement stuff. It's quite usefull if people plan to buy a house later on, to have the best credit rating they can get, so they don't get raped by interest rates.
Of course the system is fucked but if you want a normie life, you have to participate in it a bit.

The bambino is too big. 40mm is just barely acceptable for a dress watch and even then, only by modern standards. It's actually too much for many people and barely OK. Then you have this thing, which is 41mm. It doesn't work. It's also got a 21mm band which is not only awkward but too big. The proportions are all off. Ironically the Orient Mako 2 is a better dress watch in that it's a dress diver that walks between the beach and the boardroom perfectly while the Bambino is trying to be something it's not.

You mean only the USA (Israeli puppet state) is addicted to debt and credit cards? We don't use credit cards here. We like to pay with money we already have, instead of taking debt. Even when we buy houses, we don't need credit rating.

>>15261563
Eurofag here, first time I've heard about this credit rating thing, sounds like some Chinese dystopian shit.

>>15261556
Would you have any recommendation for a similar watch in price range also? Brown leather strap and a which/cream/blue face?

Can agree on the israeli puppet state. But in germany we also have credit ratings. Shufa, it's less shitty but it's there and shows the bank if you were a cunt and never paid back loans on time. It's a shitty thing tho, from the viewpoint of a consumer.

Well, good for you, but i doubt that many people in your country can pay several hundred thousand € for a house. Most people take a loan, because they usually need the house way before they can save up so much cash.
>>15261575
You have to be part of one of the first world yuro countries, faggot. Most have a system that tells the bank if you were paying loans back. Or else, every broke shitskin could take immense loans and take forever to pay them back. That's how banks protect themselves from brown people.
