1st for the goat

Black or dark blue ?

>>15270376
Dark blue
Chronographs are a meme

>>15270380
I'm talking just the color they both come in both colors.

I have to make this post about fake watches. It's crazy how replicas have dedicated communities. How could anyone unless they are morally corrupt or with brain haemorrhaging buy a fake watch. They must understand that they are contributing to an illegal business or organisation that probably has their hands in child trafficking, drug trafficking, prostitution or other things? Why would you support people who are literally killing others, just to satisfy your sickeningly pathetic desire to fool people into believing you own a certain brand? Why not just work harder or just settle with a homage?

>>15270385
Fake watches kill people ?

>>15270385
I agree, but fags gunna fag.

>>15270389
indirectly yes. you must have no clue how expensive it is to produce many high quality and thorough fake watches. these are not done by small time criminals who only murder people for their wallet and scam elderly on the side, no. it's done by huge criminal organisations who smuggled in the heroin your mom smoked when she was pregnant with you.

For me, it's the timex ironman

>>15270389
You're replying to pasta

>>15270401
By that logic I better stop paying taxes too

get one of these instead

>>15270414
buying a fake watch is a personal choice that you can extremely easily decide against doing unlike paying taxes..

>>15270425
but I don't want to fund illegal shadow wars

>>15270382
I would still say dark blue

Poor man's casio

why are people suddenly asking for small watches? where did all these wristlets come from

>>15270473
i like it better than my casios

>>15270482
small watches are refined, classy, understated, elegant.

Hi!!

>>15270401
definitely bait, but I have met people like this and it amazes me the level of indoctrination these people receive from the Swiss watch industry and Shitinkee articles.

Yes/No?

>>15270518
Yes

>>15270503
i like your rings more than your watches.

>>15270523
Thanks m8, I like them both.

show me the zaniest and kitsch nato/zulu straps

>muh small watches
you are all trend hopping faggots now that smaller cases are becoming en vogue. i bet you guys were the same ones creaming their pants when watches started going 42+ mm regularly baka

>>15270503
why does your breguet have nomos lugs???

Just found out Certina changed their logo around a couple years back to this hideous turtle shell bisected by the letters DS. So terrible, I'm tempted to look through their catalog.

>>15270545
>>nomos lugs
What did he meant with this??

>>15270549
Based Ninja turtle logo

>>15270518
Just save for the real think of your looking for something oak/ish.

>>15270518
why does it say chronometre though
am i missing something

>>15270577
>save for something
this watch >>15270518
is like $19000

>>15270603
chronometer is just a fancy faggot word for clock

>>15270606
ok im retarded i brainfarted and got it confused with chronograph

the Maurice Lacroix Aikon is just over a couple grand and looks much better than an RO

>>15270603
>chronometre

It's a rating of how precise the watch is. The watch gets tested and recieves a rating. For example a watch with constant -4 to +6 seconds of variation per day would get a chronometer rating.
What you were thinking about is a chronograph.

>>15270503
Mr. Parma! Welcome back
I preferred the other rings but this suits the Breguet better. You got a caseback shot ofthat watch?

>>15270319
Is that a sub or a gmt. didn't know thompson was into watches

>>15270311
I bought this watch for 16 bucks.

Is it time to merge /wt/ and /edc/ ?

We are already on fucking /fa/ after getting banished from /g/. Why not just go all the way?

The few actual watch fans ITT are down to less than a handful, and I KNOW you autists are also into pens and knives, and probably guns, like me.

>>15270644
No, fuck off.

okay watch experts.

>>15267605

real or fake?

>>15270653
What, the watch? Real. No-bully-chan is straight up loaded.

>>15270644
GUNS GOLD FLASHLIGHTS KNIVES WATCHES.

>>15270644
did they stop the /wt/ threads on /g/? why would they do that

>>15270671
Because mods are fags.

>>15270649

adapt or die

>>15270625
Hi m8.
Yes, but not a good one.

>>15270627
Bezel is of a GMT.

>>15270671

One or two turbo autist(s) started spamming the threads with porn then the same pictures of a fake Tudor after he got btfo by everyone else in the general.

I don’t even blame /g/ mods for kicking us out. It became so intolerable that the autist successfully made everyone leave the threads.

>>15270644
we love watches, not sjw right wing extremists claiming to be pro 2A whom hang effigies of people they hate, thus putting the 2nd amendment in great peril.

FUCK. OFF.

Watches only.

>>15270644

>>15270644

Gayest cancer that came out of manchild culture. Watches are already full of söy manchildren, but boy, edc is even worse.

you mean like watches?

>>15270723
>>15270717

So what you’re saying is that we should definitely give it a try. We’ll merge the threads one of these days to see how it goes

>>15270730
Yep, even watches. I can understand why people like them tho. Looks different. But i don't hate on bronze watches. Some do look silly, but they would look like ass, even in stainless steel.

Thoughts on bronze sub homage?

>>15270739
I'd rather get one of the bronze Seiko homages

>get a Sinn, bro

Why didnt you get a Damasko in submarine steel instead?

>>15270729
It's gay till you carry a GUN.

>>15270745
W R I S T
P R E S E N C E

>>15270742
But they're all big. I like the sub because it's 40mm. All my watches are big or digital casios so I wanted something in a decent size.

>>15270742
The seiko homages are barely seiko homage and more like modded seikos for a lesser price. They use a seiko movement ffs. I can get an skx dial and crown and no one will be able to tell yhe difference.

>>15270756
and it's wonderful
>>15270755
pretty sure the 62mas homage is not that big

>>15270739
Full bronze looks like shit here. The only bronze i like is the oris two-tone. Some full bronze watches probably look good too, but i guess they need to have their own style to pull it off. And that full bronze panerai from last thread didn't look good either. Not because of the material, but because it's a damn panerai.

Tudor has also some nice bronze ones, but i don't like them as much as the oris.

>>15270749
Good, just carry the damn gun and stay away from the edc faggotry.

>>15270729
Imagine being triggered just because someone carries a pen and notebook around with them lmao

>>15270761
>damn panerai
Are you a wristlet or contrarian? They are highly overpriced for what they are, but few brands give such variety within the basic 3-4 models they make.

>>15270745
omg 30mm height

>>15270765
they only make 1 watch, which they barely make themselves
panerai is the derek zoolander of horology

>>15270765
They just ugly, my dude.

Bought one of these after hunting for one for a while

>>15270376
Blue / chrono, I had one but they can be hard to read, watch a few videos. If your okay with that go for it.

>>15270765
panerai is completely shit, they were better when their dive watches had water resistance >50m

>>15270759
Yeah but the 62mas doesn't have the bronze bezel insert which I really like, when I get their 62mas I'll get the regular model. The only other 2 options for bronze bezel insert is turtle and tuna can and both are xbox huge.

I really want to get the bronze watch looking like this

>>15270820
hahaha wtf

>>15270820
>buy watch that is literally more expensive than normal because it's made of an inferior material
>the inferior material's whole selling point is that it can rust in a controlled way to look all vintage and shit
>retards can't rub some oil on their thousand dollar watch once a month to prevent it from getting all jacked up
the bronze watch meme has exposed so many dumbfucks

>>15270835
I am not gonna get a thousand dollar bronze watch, I'm get a heimdallr one and the bronze only costs $10 more than the steel versions.
>>retards can't rub some oil on their thousand dollar watch once a month to prevent it from getting all jacked up
The whole point of bronze watches is for them to develope patina.

>>15270841
there is a difference between patina and this >>15270820 retard
it's funny to see people dropping thousands and then seeing that they are too stupid to handle the responsibility of having a bronze watch

>>15270844
That patina wasn't due to someone fucking up, you have to buy a chemical to get the bronze looking that cyan and for it to stay like that. Going for a swim in salt water will have it barely looking like pic related and it could be wiped off without a sweat

>>15270856
that looks terrible what is wrong with you bronze watch faggots?

>>15270860
People have different tastes, deal with it.

>>15270820
It's not even uniform. Someone should just fire it to be different colors like breguet hands before assembly. Then just sell that, there's clearly a market for it.

>>15270799
>they were better when their dive watches had water resistance >50m
just don't get a fucking Due, ya dimwit

>>15270820
It can’t be good to have that shit rubbing up against your skin. You can even see that shit rubbing off on the nato.

>>15270889
Copper oxide isn't really dangerous

Unless you start licking your watch

>>15270889
BINGO

>>15270820
At this point, i have more respect for a guy that would spray paint his watch with a rattle can than this BS.
>>15270856
This looks like aids breaded with anthrax.
>>15270835
The regular consumer is stupid as shit, there is no surprise and no hiding it. But the bronze fags, that shit is "being different for the sake of being different".
I'm pretty sure there are good looking patinas but this fag keeps posting the worst ones to get a reaction out of people and the thread going.

>>15270909
>get a reaction out of people and the thread going.
I legitimately like >>15270820
I don't care about being different, I just want what I like.

Sup bros enjoying my Planet Ocean here. Have a good day.

>>15270915
What's the difference between a PO and regular semenmaster?

>>15270917
look at them side by side, they are very different watches

>>15270913
Well, works for me. I been telling a lot of people to buy what they want and not give much about what this board says. But forced patina will rarely look good for me, if it just looks like a dirty watch. All i can think, when i see this >>15270856 is, how i want to rinse off the dust. Disgusting feeling. And i don't like forced shit, be it trends, ideas or how some poeple handle their hobby. I said it before, there is def good looking patinas, but these examples are dogshit.

END OF ANNOUNCEMENT
COP WHILE YOU CAN

It's unfortunate that none of them look as good as this one

>>15270549
I took a look at their catalogue. Half their watches look like copies of modern tissots.

>>15270959
Shit you're right

>>15270756
>The seiko homages are barely seiko homage and more like modded seikos for a lesser price. They use a seiko movement ffs.
How does that even work?
I assume they get the movement from a reseller or something, because Seiko probably wouldn't want to sell their movements to someone ripping of their designs. But even then, they must certainly know who of their distributors is selling their movements to "hommage" makers? To me, it seems like most of their movements end up in such watches.

>>15271065
Seiko sell their movements to many watch companies. It probably just gets overlooked.

>>15270761
>And that full bronze panerai from last thread didn't look good either. Not because of the material, but because it's a damn panerai.
Yeah, looked like shit. But if it gets some good patina going, it'll look super cool, thanks to bronzes more natural aging properties!
pic related

>>15270376
i want one of these chronos but with no lume on the dial and the shape of the hands I feel like it could be very hard to read at times

>>15271067
Probably, but I would assume that e.g. SanMartinStelldiveHeimdallrandprobably10namesmore move enough volume to be noticeable.

Is the movement in the 36mm seamaster 300 any good? Or is it just some afterthought they tossed in there because they had it sitting around? Does it have all the features that make the movement in the large seamenmasters good?

>>15270915
Is there a version with a display case back?

>>15271065
I'm guessing a decent amount of chink clone watches with nh-35 movements have Chinese fake/clone/copies of the nh-35 movement and not authentic ones from seiko. The Chinese definitely make plenty of clone/fake ETA movements. Then again I bet you can buy nh-35s in bulk for a few dollars a piece so maybe it's easier to just buy them. It's not exactly an expensive or exclusive movement. I actually can't believe that seiko puts it in $500 watches considering they probably cost seiko a few dollars to make.

>Does anyone own one of these? or the variants. how tall does it sit? i know it says 14mm but i haven't been able to find any pics of it on wrist.
I have posted at least 3 wristshots or so of mine.
Dude, you're asking very specific questions about this shitter since months. Either get it, or don't.
You know all about it there is to know!
It's good looking, it's well made, it's a cheap shitter with a spelling error, it's got heritage, but questionable.
And 14mm is a good average. Sides of the chrystal are about 13mm, middle is 15.something, but I've got the domed sapphire, so the other versions might indeed be exactly 14mm.

>Alternatively, reccomend some good sub 1k chronos.
I'd also be interested in this question!
Especially, are there actually any, that are NOT a Seagull ST19?

>>15271136
SOVIET PEGEN'D'A

>>15271136
To the guy who's asking the questions: 14mm is a decent height, could be less but it's not Sinn tier so for the type of watch that it is, it's fine.

>>15271136
how's the lume?

>>15271152
>instead of spending 15k on a watch, just spend 10k to start a business and make the 15k (+10k initial investment) with that and then buy the watch
WTF kind of business are you starting for that cheap that makes you that much money that quickly? Drugs? Male prostitute? Pimp?

>>15271157
>could be less
Probably. But it’s a chrono, and a cheap one at that, so I doubt you could shave off more than a mm or two.

>>15271191
>WTF kind of business are you starting for that cheap that makes you that much money that quickly?
Probably a Kickstarter scam watch.

>>15271159
What lume?

>>15271194
That seagull movement is really thick. It's even funnier when someone makes an automatic out of it and ends up with a 16mm thick watch.

Who can recommend a good a good titanium watch?

>>15271215
Dw5600 with chink case.

>>15271215
Pelagos, snow frake, I'm sure there are more.

>>15271197
lume is luminescence and it's the glow in the dark parts of a watch

>>15271220

This
>>15271225
Was out in the sun all day and when it got dark after dinner, I could barely make out anything.
But at least that speaks for their Russianness. Just like with my Vostok!

>>15271199
But (ignoring the auto, where I think the auto motm is also quite thick) can you really make a chrono movement significantly thinner, especially on a budget? AFAIK all chronos are somewhat on the chubbier side.

>>15271225
im not gonna read your whole thread bruh make a better joke

>>15271237
You don't need to read the whole thread, you just need to be able to pick up on sarcasm. The joke is the watch doesn't have lume.

>>15271238
>The joke is the watch doesn't have lume.
No. The joke is that the watch does have lume, but they might as well have spared that “expense”.

>>15271285
It’s not about the quality, it’s about the logo, and that apparently is worth the money to many people.
Personally, I think fakes are weak. Either man up and spend the money or man up and take a stand that you’re not joining this stupid game.
But a fake? Yeah, no.
What’s next? Blindfolding your gf and then having some chad with a big stud ram her, so that she thinks it’s actually you that’s doing the ramming?

Now homages on the other hand, I can kinda see the appeal in those.

>>15271285
>Rolex wants 9k for a stainless steel watch?
Yeah I wish, if I could buy a gmt master or explorer for retail price I'd run to the bank right now

>>15271234
There are still a handful of new watches being made with old stock Russian chrono movements and they are the only other thing that lands in the budget mechanical chrono category. They are a bit thinner maybe 1mm or so, none of the other mechanical chrono movements in production today are being put in any watches that cost less than a few thousand dollars.

What do you think about Tudor, Omega, and Rolex?

>>15270385
stupid fuck

>>15270376
why no brown or silver

>>15270482
Because I don't feel the need to compensate for my average cock.

>>15271497
Jokes on you, I have a big cock and big watch

>>15271521
Sure, but can you actually satisfy me without it?

you guys have at least one fake nautilus right? you HAVE to have one even if you don't like them. i swear to god ever since I got my fake nautlius I've been getting all kinds of attention from women I otherwise never would've. obviously I can't wear the thing with the hoodie and sweatpants that I normally wear every day so I invested in the kind of business casual clothes that real nautilus owners would wear out on a weekend. since the lockdowns were lifted at i noticed at 6 people eyeing the watch. they weren't crooks or fiending to steal it, they were your average business type people and 3 attractive women in the late 20s, one of which said verbatim "omg is that a nautilus". my face got red and i diverted my eyes to the floor because i'm not used to eye contact with drop dead gorgeous blondes. i said "yeah" under my breath then got off at the next metro stop even though it wasn't my stop. i was just so overwhelmed by the attention i needed a breather. the watch has given me so much confidence in the last couple of days its unreal. i feel superhuman. i don't walk like the incel cartoon guy anymore. i unironically walk with my chest to the world. i never realized you could feel this way as a poorfag loser. a high quality fake nautilus is around 300-400 USD. its honestly worth the price considering how transformative it is. you'll nevre get called out because the high quality fakes are so good they fool everyone that doesn't have a microscope or other autistic watch-instruments like that. the display caseback is even decorated down to the smallest detail to mimic the real thing. seriously you guys, if you want to sleep with women in their mid to late 20s who are on the prowl for rich men to hunker down with before their ovaries expire then get a fake nautilus. there's an endless supply of these types of women and they literally spend their entire commutes eyeing the wrists of single men to figure out if they're rich enough to be suitable partners.

So I'm about to pull a trigger on this one probably next month, will be my first diver. Thoughts? I only heard positive stuff about these series.

>>15271529
why would you want a diver? assuming you're not a redditor, there really is no need to yearn for a diver

>>15271528
Lol. I really like this pasta.

>>15271497
That's a pretty nice vintage watch. I love the dial color. Is there anyway you can get some of the fuzz off the hands without ruining the natural vintage patina™?

>>15271527
We'll see, just pull your pants down and let me take you for a ride

The only "watch person" lower than the guy who wears a replica unironically (while, presumably, aimbotting in a free-to-play Internet shooter and wearing his baseball cap indoors and backwards), is the one that comes around on an internet forum to preach. At least the replica user isn't under a delusion that someone cares about his opinion, objectively fucktarded as it may be.

i immediately associate replica seethers with the basedjack "NOOO YOU CANT JUST" meme and replica wearers are gigachad

>replica

Unless it’s of a model that’s not made anymore since forever, it’s not a replica, it’s a fake.

>>15271068

Yeah i can. Based on the pictures it's probably owned by some Japanese guy who is in to raw denim and LARPing as an American biker from the 50s

Not yet. Currently at work. Maybe later when I get home to the wife and our kid is asleep.

>>15271662
The difference between a replica and a fake is the replica won't say the name of the watch it's based on as it's not trying to fool anyone.

>>15271700
>the replica won't say the name of the watch it's based on as it's not trying to fool anyone.

no, thats a """homage"""", same as sterile (no logo) dials
pic related is a homage

a rep and a fake is the same thing, they are different from homages. They will have the same logo as the watch they are copying and even cloned movements.

When I was 18 to 22 (now 32) I use to leaned my Dads daydate and 911 to pick up girls, they would always let me cum inside them, always batting out of my league and it was so easy. Now I'm married but any young anon should try it out, it's interest how things change with a flashy watch and car when picking up girls.

>>15271711
I am tempted to get one of these.

>>15271711
Okay that makes sense, I was mixing up a rep and a homage.

>>15271719
ive only heard good things about them, build quality is good etc. Go for san martin/pagani design/parnis

wait for a big sale to save even more money. AE's anniversary sale just passed (end march). The other one I know of is the Singles day sale on 11/11

>>15271727
Those sales generally only are worth it if you’re autistically hunting for coupons. Otherwise you just pay the sale price, which is just the normal price that was jacked up before the sale, so they can make great reductions!
But if you’re knowing what you’re doing, 1111 can be quite good.

I had it running on a countertop for about a month, gave it occasional wrist time but mostly just handwound every evening or so. Had to set it again because it had stopped last night. Its second hand would occasionally jam up against the minute hand, but if it didn't, it'd run smoothly thereafter. First use in January 2020, case is 420. My ISP is rangebanned from posting images, so no pic.

Does anyone know when any other brands will release for 2020? Or if they will? And can Rolex or Tudor even compete with Omega's SMP: META/COSC, Ceramic dial/Ceramic Bezel, Silicon, Can be had for 3k at the right AD, 5 year warranty

Tag Huehue still a shit. Even Seiko buyers knows this.

>>15271952
There is zero reason of buying one over an actual vintage Heuer piece.

>>15271529
I hated them but they grew on me. Mostly because they have a rubber version. But the rubber ones are missing the lines beneath the dot indices and it looks sterile as fuck.
Wouldn't pay 1390€ for the auto tho.
>>15271543
That looks more boring and costs about 1800€, at least what i found.

You could say that everything is fake luxury at this point. The longines uses a slightly improved version of an ETA and the oris uses an improved version of a sellita sw200-1. And the damn sellita is based on an ETA.

It's all some refurbished version of an ETA for most entry level mall shitters. There is no winning when it comes to the swiss scam. But some people like some looks so much, that they want to throw away money and that's fine.

>>15272010
where did our Canadian go? The guy with the Speedy, Datejust and vintage Seikos? he's always very kind

>>15271789
i like those but i heard they have 90-click bezels and a ghost date which cheeses me off because the rest of the watch is rad

>>15272018
What do you mean? Was he the guy with a longines? I don't remember a canadian, haven't paid attention to that.

>>15272029
he had a mark 2 I think, a 1601 datejust, and some vintage seikos -- he also maybe had 1 vintage omega dress watch. he's a huge fan of the Lemania

I don't know where he went, maybe to a forum, regardless, a way good guy

Well, that sounds like an explanation. Maybe he will return once in a while. But what does this all have to do with oris and longines, lol?

>>15272045
who'd buy a longines? Oris is obviously the more sensible choice in every facet.

longines lost their touch decades ago. for the sub-3k market, you can't go wrong with Oris.

the longines sector dial does look nice though...

>>15271969
I urge everyone to read this post and just give it a thought (not even a reply)

>>15272052
to the anti-double-spacers, I do it for my eyes. I've been here some time and bought my first GMT in ought 3, there've always been watch-lovers on here. can you imagine paying 4k for a GMT?

>>15272052
I have no real arguments, because i'm not buying either and just like the looks of the longines diver.

But any choice also involves personal taste. And people will make non rational decisions. Not matter how sensible some other option is.
I personally think that they are both overpriced for ETA shitters.

>>15272066
well the Legend's been around for some time, I'd make an exception for that in a heartbeat. in fact, I haven't met anyone who hasn't loved that watch. For diving/swimming, and for casual wear. the lugs are a bit long, but it curves the wrist nicely.
which diver are you referring to?

>>15271529
these are nice, why not buy one?

I don't trust the sellita due to the tooth-stripping on the hatchet wheel. Now, this likely isn't a problem on Oris. In fact I can almost guarantee it isn't. But if you're looking at microbrands that are selling Sellita-based movements, don't do it.

ETA or 9015/otherwise.

>muh diver
Why does everyone and their brother buy a diver as a first watch? It makes more sense to buy something that mimics an OP, Datejust, or Explorer instead of a Sub.

>>15272084
I like the OP39

>>15272089

>>15272084
There are way more divers than OP alternatives

>>15272084
yeah, not everyone picks a watch based on Rolex designs. boomer

>>15272083
SW200-1 fixes this apparently

>>15272070
I was talking about these two divers >>15272010
Oris aquis and the longines. That's the post that you replied to and asked about some canadian. And it's been been a bit confusing to understand what you exactly mean, i think you mistook me for somebody else.
I'm out anon, i don't want to discuss those divers more than i did already.

>>15272109
later duderino, get the longines btw, apples to apples

>>15272084
lots of reasons tell you hwat.
1. James Bond wheres a diver
2. divers are cool because scuba diving is cool
3. sub is super recognizable because of 1 &2
4. as a result of 3 there is a shit ton of divers on the market because thats what luxury watches are to most people
5. "everyday sport watches" look plain to most people and nobody except watch people want to spend $$$ on a plain looking watch
6. nobody gives a fuck how "versatile" a watch is because everyone is just going to wear there oversized dive shitter with everything anyways

>>15272084
>most widespread designs are from iconic divers
>the bezel edges reflect light in a nice way,different grades of piloshing on case and bracelet make it shiny and nice to look at
>simple forms of the indices are nice to look at (triangles, circles, rectangles)
>white hands with a silver border contrast nicely on the black or blue dial, bezel insert has nice contrasts
>good looking watches can be cheap

Yes, logically the first watch should be something like a dress watch but they tend to look boring to people that have little to no experience in watches. I got my first quartz diver because it looked super nice and i loved the colors and contrasts. And I'm still not bored with its my daily watch for half a year already.

Or one could just make fun of these people and say that the basic colors and shapes of divers remind us subconsciously about or kid toys. But i'm sure that nobody on this board would call us manchildren, based on that armchair psychology.

>>15272126
I may be the only scuba diver here, and I wear a dive computer. I'd never take a Rolex diving.

ya neither would i. its not the point- its the romance of them. the whole adventure / "you never know even tho my life is boring i might need to get shit done" baloney. its a lot advertising and larp. even as a scuba diver you dont need 100 m of water resistance let alone 300 m or 1000 m and you sure as hell dont need a helium release valve. if 50 m actually meant waterproof to 50 m thats all you would need if it had a screw down crown. nobody knows this and nobody cares.

Meh. That sounds kinda cringy.
