I actually like microbrands because they can't easily coast on brand power or "heritage", which means they have to give the kind of value proposition seiko used to have. Some of them have unique designs even for plebs, too.

((((timex))))

>>15688705
first off >timex
second that's basically a rebranded timex Q
it has a SHIT quartz movement, not even a good one
it has bad lume and cheap finishing on the hands
it has cheap finishing in general
the bezel is one of the worst to ever exist and does not even have a functional lume pip
it's a watch that's worth $20 being sold for $200 and it's still not even made in America, get the fuck out of here
you could buy an ACTUAL vintage quartz shitter for half of that if not a fourth. you can get fucking quartz Credors for $200

>>15688705
timex has a few passable, even good deals (mostly their mechanicals) but that watch is only worth like $50

a hard no

Today I will remind them

>still cheaper than that Rafael Nadal RM

>>15688661
Look carefully, during that picture he was under the process of dwarfing himself, look at the size of the suit, too big for him, and the pants are ripped, indicating that he had a big body for that suit and now his body is smaller.

>>15688715
>>15688705
to expand ;
the timex marlin 34mm handwinding reissue is great at $150, their <$200 miyota X timex mechanicals are good enough, and maybe the weekender/fairfield chrono if you are a normie casual fashion person
the rest is all overpriced and bad specs. Like fuck, for many of their watches its still plated brass, something you'd only expect from $35 classic cold war komandirskies and $40 aliexpress watches

Sorry but the swatch is better looking.

>>15688843
Does the cyclops lens just photograph horribly because it ruins an otherwise perfect face

>>15688631
it would make sense if it was month accurate i.e. on February 28th you'd see a preview of 1 since the following day is the first of March. but that looks like an ordinary 31 day date wheel, so seeing the preview is pointless.

>>15688661
he's wearing the bracelet too loosely, for one

>>15688779
the one with baton indices looks better

>>15688847
yeah, although presumably it looks aligned when viewed straight on, at least

>>15688847
Yeah the only complaint about the swatch is that the original didn't have the day date with the cyclops, they released the swatch "once again" as a reissue of the original but added the day date window, i think the did it to maintain the collector value of the original but it's pretty annoying.

>and i cant imagine wearing jeans a t-shirt with a super polished sarb033 on
Not him buy why not? It seems like it can be worn with just about anything.
There aren't really many watches you can't wear with jeans and a t-shirt.
If i was a rich old boomer i would wear a patek chronograph with cargo shorts and slides.

>>15688953
>reddit has a big hugbox mentality and also just due to the size of the subreddit it's largely populated by casuals saying anything negative or rudely honest gets you downvoted.

Not only reddit, is the general trend, watches too big, you can see it here too, if you say something about 36-38mm watches the wristlet label comes fast, then you see people pictures and are usually oversized watches that would look if they were smaller, although not to the point of some reddit images, they can have extremely big watches and people will keep saying that it looks well, specially when it's some omega or some expensive watch, no dude, I don't care about your deep relationship with the moon, that speedy is fucking big for your wrist and even if you are drooling about it for years your wrist is smol as fuck.

>>15688968
That too, 99,9% of the people take the pics from the wrong angle, in some minutes I will show what a difference the arm position makes,so if the watch is on the limit, on the usual position will look bad.

>>15688977
I think its just the way the high polish case and dauphine hands stand out. It might be that ive always gone for brushed or satin watches

>>15688984
36-38 is small, but its delt with the same way 5'11 is a dwarf manlet 6foot is master race.

At least the wristlets here are looking for decent sized watches and not dragging a 44mm + paneri around on their delicate arms. I dont recall anyobe posting anything particularly egregious on their arms in /wt/

>>15688973
I see people wearing classic Datejusts with a t-shirt and shorts all the time.
You can elevate the look with a business casual outfit (polo and khakis)

>>15688968
>>15688984

Here is the picture, so everyone should learn how to take pictures. I'm probably a wristlet, my wrist is 17-17,5cm on the position I wear my watches (kinda high) which is about 6,7-6,8 inches?. The watch is really hughe, is not mine, is from my father and I only used it to take some reference pictures because the watch is really big and it can be useful to know how some watches would fit me. Watch size, 43mm without crown, and 53mm lug to lug, something that you would expect to look good only on chad wrists and not on wristlets like me, however you can see that on the resting position, the watch looks good and would only overhang in the most extreme position that is when you actually check the time doing the entire motion with the arm, thats the worse position and that's the position people use to take the pics for some reason, thats the position only you will see, other people will see other angles.


>>15688977
I sometimes wear a vintage bright broze coloured watch with a brown leather strap, I looks kinda weird when I wear cargo shorts and sporty clothes,but I don't care.

>>15688907
The Swiss army watch is the one I'd wear for work and sports but lately the seiko for social stuff and around the house just cause its new

are there any vintage watches that can be cheaply serviced by watchmakers?

>>15689075
Any simple 3 hander.

>>15688973
I think the SARB033 is in the area of almost perfect versatility, I'll happily wear it with a t-shirt and jeans but also when I'm going out and have to dress a little smarter. However, I don't think it can be worn as a dress watch, it's a bit too big for that, and the lume is another issue.

>>15689125

i have a suit, even though i only maybe attend 1-3 events per year that need a suit. (weddings, funerals etc)

that watch looks, and has always looked, like hipster trash

>>15688946
I don't know why but no one can manage to make a Navitimer-like watch that looks right.
I can't believe it's just breitling stokholm-syndroming everyone into thinking the original looks good, but it seems only they can manage to get it right.
Are there any other similar models that work?

Im really tempted to rebuy my proper first watch. It had resin rot a few years ago and died.

Do i do it or is there a more updated or better colorway version of it?

its a modified seagull ST6 inside
afaik 36 hours, handwind only
architecturally its a very old movement but quite fitting for what the reissue wants to be

>>15689270
It's garbage, seagull manages to easily fit an st16 in their own 34mm handwinders. Timex bought what is probably the cheapest movement that seagull sells

Monster autist guy here, I recently bought a Heimdallr homage. I’ll post pics and a review when it comes in the mail.

>>15689273
it probably is, even on chinese sites i cannot find much info on the st6
weirdly enough they chose the decorated + skeletalized version of the st6 which cost more, even though nobody would see it

Very based. Have this exact model. Love the dial. They also look really good on leather. But would go for a shiny black strap to match the plastic case.
>>15688843
>proprietary strap

Have fun paying 40$ once the plastic strap needs replacement. Also can't be opened and fixed, has only a battery cover. The casio can be fully opened but it's way cheaper and easy to buy a new one. The swatch is like 60€, casio 10€.

Any of the baltic watch movements decently accurate? Like how they look but always hear they're pricey for the money.

Wow, that looks really good. Never saw it before. Wish this forum would be less fixated on mechanical watches. There is such a huge and interesting amount of quartz models. Especially the japs with their model numbers. People dont remember them as easily as product line names so there is lots to discover.

>>15689680
Same. Or a new poljot okean. Of course both will be better than a crappy vostok, but anyone has an idea of how they do, compared to Hamilton/certina/mido?

>>15689954
I have a zeppelin watch (junkers brand) with a Poljot P3133, same as in the strela and poljot okean. Very solid movement, own it like 7 years. No service yet but still precise on time. The date has no quick set, you need to pass the midnight to advance date then go back one hour until it clicks and go over the 12 again to advance. Not really bad but annoys me.

I also had some unique problems with mine.
>red circle
Screw untigtened itself due to chrono pusher usage. Made the lever get out of its trench and i couldnt operate the pusher. Fasten screw, its also fastened in the other direction than usual. Don't go too tight or chrono pusher will be harder to operate (happened 3 times over the years, next time i'll use loctite)

>blue circle
For some reason the screw i'm pointing to has also untightened itself and blocked the other chrono pusher. It was really far out but i did nothing to cause it, no chocks or vibrations.

Had no idea what it was and disassembled the whole chrono pusher lever assembly and the thing that engages the chrono gears to the drivetrain. Only at the end i saw the screw being out.

>>15689981
Was happy that i found it, expecting it to be surprisingly easy.
Then i spent the next 3 hours trying to put back the fucking levers. That thing at the left, i am pointing at, it has a spring. It had to sit on the moving part and had to be put in a special place.

God damn spring kept slipping down and making it impossible to put it back in place. Took it further apart but had no more easy options. It had to fit or else i'd have to start disassembling the complicated parts.

Studied old vids and some pdf's about the P3133 before i figured out a trick to put i back in, with the spring not getting in the way. What a fucking retarded adventure that was.

Holy shit, this fucker used some dubs jutsu!

>>15690069
if your automatic is made with low tolerances and not regulated well out of the factory this is normal. like boktoks come from the factory +/- a minute. you have to get them regulated at which point you can get them down to +/- 3s a day if you're lucky.
seiko undersells their movements and unless your shit is magnetized the average 4R shitter should be getting within 10s a day out of the factory. but sometimes it comes magnetized or is poorly regulated or something. a minute deviation is "normal" on paper but not normal in practice.

> square/rectangular watches
Any good affordable options nowadays? I know Seiko does some, but honest opinions here: do they look good even if you're not wearing a suit or a shirt? I love the square style but worry how they'd look if you're just wearing a plain t-shirt with jeans or something.

>>15690093
Someone posted Luch, dirt cheap at 30 euros

>>15690093
Square watches are very versatile so long as you aren't getting something that's all gold with gold bracelet or has gems encrusted on it

new wall clock

>>15690093
depends on what kind of square it is

a cartier style square is obviously very different from a monaco style racing square

regardless with squares you have to be extra aware of the size. A 38mm square will look like a 42mm fattie due to the extra surface area diagonally. I have a vostok square in that size and i almost never wear it because im a wristlet. It fits but looks too fat.

>>15690069
normal for mass produced movements

+-10 to +-15 is average
+-5 is winning lottery
you can always regulate it yourself but be sure to move the correct lever out of the 2. One regulates your watch the other fucks it up

I was thinking gold rim with white background on a brown leather strap, seems to be the most popular type on sale apart from black and white.

royale

>>15690141
Better put on a watch you don't mind sleeping with anon, doubt we'll be getting it today.

>>15690069
Out of the box, yeah. Most of them are made to a good spec, but they slide out of that by not running in storage. Furthermore, lubricants drip down according to gravity. For many sub-$1000 mechanicals, timekeeping performance can be within spec only barely right out of the box, but the movement can still be capable of 2-3 s/d.

Some movements like the NH35 and ST16 can be expected to get better over time if worn every day for months. E.g. my Invicta 8926OB runs at +-2 s/d regularly, and my Corgeut BB-homage w/ ST16 is now doing -4 s/d (but -7 s/d after setting for about two days, because the hacking function apparently tires the balance spring out).

Talk about getting a watch regulated is horseshit. No watchmaker will regulate your slav- chink- or nipshitter; it's just not worth it. It's opinion tourists regurgitating things other idiots have regurgitated before.

>>15690141
The real question is what you'll wear after the great reset, the only things you'll only be able to own are the things you can put in a briefcase at that point.

>>15690159
looks good

>>15690159
i really dont like the green, i would have gone for the orange or blue myself.

>>15689999
well, you could have saved a bit if you waited, how many naruto fans are there?
these SF ones were released only a few months earlier and also with a MSRP of $695
they are now down to this price on grey vendor sites

>>15690179
orange and blue neptunes hasnt been in stock for a very very long time

>>15689981
>>15689996
sick! thanks for sharing

>>15690168
It's a slave clock from the 80s - it's odd. I assumed the seller just replaced the old radio-controlled movement with a modern quartz one but it ticks strangely and rapidly

>>15690152
>noooooo democrats cant vote by mail noooooo

>>15690168
Vostok Neptune SE

>>15690201
statistically impossible. and even though trump said you should vote in person, there has to be people that voted in mail. for biden to get 130,000 and trump 0, is fishy

everyone talks about the prospex shit, but which seiko 5 logo do you prefer?

>>15690217
the one that looks like a 5

>>15688705
The colorway is cool, maybe wait for a video review to see how the build quality is and then go for it? Nobody irl gives a fuck about the brand. If you like it, go for it.

>>15690217
the new one easy. doesnt look like an interstate highway sign

>>15689160
No, that's a very good size.

>>15690217
the one with a 5 in it

>>15690198
Okay so it's a Seiko Precision clock, simple quartz movement - I'd assumed the screw was to set the time but it's just to open the back

>>15690205
They're just going to keep finding mail in ballots until they flip the election.
And you aren't allowed to question it.

>>15690236
its almost as if the people who mailed in their ballots voted for biden...

>>15690233
Haute horlogerie righ there

rate this collection

>>15690288
please dont tell me this is your collection

>>15690288
ummmmm....

>>15690288
The only one I'd keep in that picture is the box.

>>15690310
fpbp

>>15690288
Is this the box you show when you want to filter people who are “into” whoreology?

>>15690310
kek, nice one

>>15690288
Seiko 5 "Datejust" looks good, especially is you paid the old price (<100 USD) for it. The rest is a waste of space and money.

>>15690288
There is a reason watch collecting should only be done by richfags.

>>15690324
>watch collecting should only be done by richfags.
snobs are 100% uneffay
be like our boy here, he loves all good watches regardless of price

>>15690288
Well, you tried/10

>>15690288
WATCH out for the incoming snobs anon

>>15690324
>implying rich people dont often buy shit watches
>implying all expensive watches are good

>>15689403
Having a watch named "Tuna" that looks all divey but only has 200m of water resistance.

>>15690288
You asked for ratings and you get berated lol. Never apologize for your interests. Some people just like circlejerk-shitting on others to feel superior in order to patch weak self-esteems. That’s why sex insecure divorced sub muscle daddies.

>>15690328
"Oh hi there Anon. You're promoting my channel? That's the bees-knees, thank you so much! I'm going to dedicate my next video to you, it's going to be the 2398734th video about the Seiko Flighty. See you around. OK ciao!"

>>15690328
He looks like the typical slimeball you would meet in a dark alley that would try and sell you a 'legit' Rolex with no box or papers. "It's not stolen guv' "

>>15690217
The “5” badge looks better.

>>15690332
Of course not all expensive watches are good and being rich doesn't mean you have good taste but I'd argue even a bad expensive watch is still better than anything in that pic.

>>15690288
There's nothing wrong with buying shitters if you really like and enjoy what you're getting, but if your goal is to put together a collection then there should be some sort of reasoning or cohesion behind what you get.
That's just some random shitters; if you enjoy them that's great but as collections go it's not something to brag about

>>15690349
>>15690310
tag heuer is a luxury brand though

>>15690324
Yeah, where are the Hublots and Richard Mille?

>>15690351
*was* a luxury brand anon.

>>15690288
>MVMT Diver
now that is some next level cancer

>>15690355
>when your prices go up and your quality goes down
noice
That said, the new Autavia Isograph looks really neat. Its price is a shame though.

>>15690355
theres no real difference between a luxury brand and non luxury brand except how much they can convince people to overpay for their 3 handed steel tool watch

obviously you can put more money into polishing when you charge people $4000 for a watch. But its not really worth that much, especially if its just some ETA/Valjoux variant inside.

>>15690353
Yes that is ugly as fuck but its still better than the shitters posted.

>>15690363
> there's no real difference between a luxury brand and non luxury brand
obviously that is not true. sure there are brands that rely mostly on marketing but in general the build quality and materials is going to be better the more you pay. this >>15690353 may be disgusting but I bet it's very well made.

>>15690370
>but in general the build quality and materials is going to be better the more you pay.
wow thanks, captain obvious

if you gave vostok $5000 im sure they can make the best amphibia that ever existed for you as well.

>>15688586
What's maintenance like for mecha-quartz chronos? i assume i'll actually have to get it serviced once or twice a decade rather than just change a battery every 2-3 years

Is Mother of Pearl gay? I just compeltely organically stumbled upon this microshitter, and I've been looking for a cheap sub-40mm diver with some style and this fits the bill, but I'm not really a fan of the other colorways. How easy is this to pull off as a sort of smart-casual watch?

>>15690370
Material quality is overstated. “Craftsmanship” is what watchfags jerk off to.

>>15690372
> $5000 vostok

>>15690217
new one is better but it annoyingly resembles those retarded American superhero logos

>>15690387
>I just compeltely organically stumbled upon this
sure thing, jody

>>15690387
CHAD mother-of-pearl .vs. VIRGIN meteorite

also, the silvery colour reminds me of the phoibos voyager (sold out in all colours, RIP). All these microshitter dressy divers.

>>15690404

>>15690394
reigning undisputed emperor of shitters

HALLO AND WELLCUM

>>15690404
Aw man the Voyager is sold out again? I saw the green was back and I was hoping they might have a black friday sale so I held off. Foolish me.

>>15690436
yep. sold out everywhere, on both their sites and on 3rd party retailers as well

ebay has a green one but @$325

Should I just get a Pagani Datejust?

>>15690351
any tag heuer watches made between the year 1990 and 2015 are not luxurious. the future of tag looks promising, though

>>15690448
sure why not
parnis and san martin make them too, so compare and decide

>>15690455
What's the most boomer color scheme for the Datejust? I'm trying to go for the boomercore look

>orient bambino has a metal spacer while the seiko5 has a plastic one despite being at least 2x the price of the bambino

uh........seikofags?
>>15690475
two tone gold and silver

>>15690475
Two tone followed by all yellow gold.

>>15690385
google solar quartz, also you can get chrono with reasonable thickness

>>15690478
I wonder if a plastic or metal spacer makes a difference for shock resistance.

>>15690483
i wonder if my dick in your asshole makes you gay

Why the fuck don't they offer this in the 38mm version

>>15690483
>rigid plastic
>absorbing shock
COPEium.jpg
real shock absorption comes with metal springs

>>15690478
I always assumed the plastic was for shock absorbance, like the timex in >>15689293.
at any rate I dont see any gain in not using plastic as spacer

>>15690495
metal spacer = more premium
plastic spacer = cost cutting
heavier watch = more expensive

this watch journalist was so bothered by it he had a watchmaker custom mill a bronze spacer just for his timex marlin.

>>15690478
wtf is that seiko
didnt know they did gold skx case models

who else is going to go /all in/ on Omega Man in the White House investments if Biden wins?

>>15690523
I got the cash for one. So maybe.
Any suggestions for something nice?

I love syncing my watch

>>15690523
Omega is for plebs. The obvious choice is a Rolex on a president bracelet.

>>15690529
well, I wouldn't call it nice personally but >>15689223 is what you're probably looking for. there are also some cheaper options like the Seiko 7T32-6M90 or the Vulcain "50s Presidents’ Watch Automatic Steel" as anon said >>15689314

>>15690159
Based as fuck sideways comrade.

>>15690483
There's a reason why even the metal g shocks have resin in them.

How do I stop thinking about watches bros? I just bought a Black Bay 58 last month and I'm already considering emptying out my bank account to by a Zenith Defy

>>15690574
Go get laid or something

>>15690487
jokes on you, I was gay before you put your dick in my asshole

>>15690574
develop a taste for low cost shitters so you arent just wasting your money on $3000-5000 entry luxury watches

>>15690523
thinking about getting a "new" Cal 321 Speedmaster but it's kinda expensive for an Omega and I wanted to get a gold watch next year so I'm still on the fence. Sold a couple of midwit shitters though so I'm tempted to just spend the money.

>>15690532
Is that a bead blasted khaki? Whenever i was looking at them they were always polished >

>>15690328
He always looks so slimey. If i hadnt heard him talk id assume he drove around in a corsa looking to pick up fat 16 year olds so he can bribe them with cheap cider into letting him finger blast them

>>15690615
Its a 2017 model idk if they both changed the finish and movement later. Also came with the metal bracelet.

>>15690608
What do you think about the First Omega in Space Speedmaster? I like it, it's a bit smaller than the Professional and comes with sapphire and the hands seem more interesting.

>>15690641
I actually strongly dislike that one. The case size in person is a really slim difference and I really don't like the hands, especially how they are mismatched in the subdials. Sapphire is nice but doesn't quite have that spacey feeling of the hesalite bubble.
Still it's a nice watch and much better than any of the coaxial Speedmasters.

>>15690615
no that is the ass blasted khaki

>>15690197
Cheers, i thank you.

>>15690653
I just think that the regular sapphire Speedmaster is overpriced, right now Tag Heuer released a new Carrera with a 80 hour inhouse movement for €3800

Why spend almost €1700 on a Speedmaster that you can't use in the water or in conditions under 0°?

---- late thread stall ----

>>15690288
honestly not even bad. Just dump the MVMT and Fossil shitters and your collection is respectable. I like that Aqua Racer. Also not sure what top left is, but I doubt you need more than 1 smart watch

>>15690680
>right now Tag Heuer released a new Carrera with a 80 hour inhouse movement for €3800
What's the water resistance, how big/thick is it, and let's see some pics.

is OP here - do you have more election-related OC for next thread?

>>15690854
Yeah, I'm here..and yes, but it's much more subtle

>>15690152
Lol

>>15689475
This aged well. Lmao

>>15690288
pmsl if you can even close that thing with the g-shock bulge

>>15688595
LOL

>>15690159
Thats really cool anon

>>15690288
isn't this that cheap chinese box off amazon?

>>15690942
bro they're all the fucking same
it's a fucking box
there's a dude in these threads who puts his watches in a sock and stores them in a shoebox

>>15690944
That's just wrong
I mean, you don't have to have a expensive watch box or anything, but come on.
I've even used old cigar boxes to store my watches in, they aren't that expensive

>>15690944
I'm not storing thousands of dollars of watches in some jank box shitted out of a dilapidated factory in shenzhen

>>15690951
they all are

>>15690942
would you use a nice expensive $700 handmade hardwood box with actual glass for shit watches?

>>15690955
nah
for example, quick google search:
http://www.sacher-schmuckkoffer.com/Watch-Boxes-and-Cases/Watch-Boxe
>>15690956
no

Casio makes these watches in so many different colors and shit it's insane

New
