Why does TOCKR make a direct ripoff of Sinn 140? Is this really a good way to promote your new microbrand?

Thoughts on Meistersinger?

>>15738423
For me a diver, but I know that doesn't fit everybody's taste. Personally they're my go-to daily watches.

>>15738435
Microbrands are a quick cashgrab in 90% of the cases. What did you expect?

>>15738423
Something with a bit of color.

>>15738435
>another Valjew powered watch
ehh, its more like a homage
some things are different

but looking at how their prices are marked down now I dont think the brand is going to last for much longer
their prices are way too high and its all very gimmicky
this is/was $3200
just dipping the watch in paint added another $1000 to the price tag

>>15738419
Suggest a watch for me.
> your budget
300 usd
> Watch type
casual dress beater/field watch
> desired features
hacking/handwinding automatic. Steel, no bracelet, 100 wr would be nice
> Wrist size or desired watch size
up to 40mm

This is for a mates birthday btw. This isn't a price range I look at so would love any input.

I have a diver and chrono on bracelets but these are my less permanent collection.

>>15738485
the problem here is that if your budget is $300 you are limiting yourself to basically just seiko5s and those things have the shit ass old movement with no hacking or handwinding and their timekeeping out of the box leaves much to be desired. you may be able to just source a 4R36 movement and replace it but I don't know if you can do that or if you can just drop it in or need additional parts (like a different movement holder, which is sometimes needed in these cases). at this point it's still under $300 but it's a bit of a hassle.
if you don't want to go that route you can get a chinkshitter. or a boctok but those have no hacking. that's basically it. maybe there are some microbrands selling field watches in that range but it can't be many. you'd have better luck with divers.

Boldr Venture
titanium, 200wr, nh35
$299

alternatively jomashop actually has the Hammy Khaki mechanical (handwind only) at $330 right now, but its 50wr. its (((swiss made))) so looks nicer for a normie gift i suppose

Bulova Hack looks very nice, and its actually a very dressy field watch but its same price as the hammy above on jomashop, features a much less premium Miyota 82S0 workhorse non handwind movement, the steel is PVD coated so wear will show and the wr is only 30.

i would also mention Vario Trench but thats a new model and the shipping will not start until june next year. Again, no handwind.

>>15738509
The Hamilton Khaki is a nice watch but it looks like a cheap watch. I bet if you asked a normie how much it cost they'd say $100. It's kind of shit as a gift for that reason.

Thoughts on this Jazzmaster for a business casual watch for a poorfag? Looking at automatics under $1000

>>15738603
It looks cool. The day display elevates it.

>>15738423
get something with a bracelet.

>>15738419
Why come these threads are either Seikos or Pateks and nothing in between?

i'd like to extend my current collection. It's also for a special occasion so a bit of a speciality factor would be prefered. So could you recommend me a:

> your budget
600usd
> Watch type
sporty dress watch, not too tacticool field watch, classy diver
> desired features
hacking/handwinding automatic, open for special quartz movements. preferably 100m wr or more. bracelet optional especially if its of lower quality.
> Wrist size or desired watch size
36mm to 40mm.

currently owned watches: Tudor blue bb36, skx007, Sarb017 green alpinist.

Current candites:
Vintage Seiko 45 KS in the 7001 case shape. but i'm worried a bit about the serviceability.
VintageOmega Seamaster. A bit less worried because there should be plenty of watchmakers around europe who can work on these. Quality is hit and miss at this pricepoint tho.
Steinhart ocean one vintage as well as the military version. not too worried about hommages but i'm not sure if i need another diver.
2020 non compass alpinist but it would be too close to the sarb.
hamilton khaki field. not sure about the price/perforance here.

if i had 10x the budget i would get a 36mm Explorer.

Since the "7 casio box with no watch" fiasco, i can't trust any unpackings. But nice cigs.

reverso anon?

>>15738630
If I were you I'd just save up for the explorer, you already have a dive watch and two field watches. The vintage omega is the coolest on the list. I wouldn't get two alpinists, but the dial texture on the new one is nice.

Casio a168 grey, yay or nay? Seems decent everyday beater watch.

The beige dial and brown leather works better as a dress watch imo.

>>15738419
Are there any watches out there similar to this? I love the no frills presentation, but >1,500 for a quartz movement is a joke. Unfortunately I've never seen a replica for this and other tank style watches are all roman numerals cramped into the square frame and look like a mess.

>>15738761

>>15738733
Nice, I like it.
Was it mail ordered? I'm always worried about the safety of ordering watches online.

>>15738733
Amazing watch anon congrats, but be wary of size.

Do a wrist shot.

I am waiting to ship my SMP, literally waiting on the dude to send the money over and I am off to the FedEx store.

I will be taking said funds to help me purchase this bad boy right here.

Just send the funds anon, I am going to send the watch

>>15738786
Based, this is my favorite rolex model at the moment.

>>15738733
Neat, looks good. But is it a one sided sneedverso? Or does the other side have a dial too?

Yeah, I ordered it online from jewellery but it was one at like one hour drive from my home city, so I wasn't particularly worried about getting scammed. It had nice reviews as well
>>15738774
Oh I'm quite the wristlet so I went to try one an equally sized Reverso before getting this one. It's one of their bigger models but it wears fine, the lugs have a bit of a downward curve so it sits well on the wrists

Didn't think they were this big though, they look way smaller on the website. What's your wrist size?

>>15738665
uhm yeah sure

I think it deserved all the hype it got when it came out. Gorgeous watch. Just not one i would wear. Blue Pelagos or black BB58 is what i would buy for another tudor diver.


>>15738720
i very much agree with you. However i don't think there will be a point in the foreseable future, where i would drop 6k for a watch.
It is a special ocasion and i will get the watch as a gift but i can pick which one i want in a certain range.
I'm mostly leaning towards the two vintage ones.

>>15738761
Thanks for your suggestion. The deal that is going on right now is a steal for the specs. But i personally dont like cyclops dates and the watch in general just seems bland to me.

>>15738797

>>15738818

Never measured it exactly, but I have pretty thin wrists. I think 16-17 cm

>>15738808
Nice, enjoy the watch.

>>15738820
Recently really started liking the black pelagos, after being blind towards tudor, due to all the retareded memes and ignorance. I especially like the modern LHD one with the cream color indexes. The vintage one looks even better, love the case more.

>>15738848

All 3 of Newman's daughters are humanitarians which means they have more money than they know what to do with. And one of them is the founder of Newman's Own foods. None of them would need to sell this watch. All of them have kids they could pass this watch on to.
This is pipe-hitting levels of blackpill

>>15738863
>humanitarians
more money for charities then by selling the thing. it's a just a hunk of metal after all; every watch is ultimately worthless.

Stop me from buying a Pagani Daytona. Hating that useless 24-hr. subdial isn't enough (why did Seiko think that was a good idea in the first place?).

>>15738868
Think of all the times you're going to have to explain that no it's not a Rolex you just bought a cheap Chinese watch off AliExpress. Oh what's AliExpress ? it's like a Chinese amazon or ebay...

>>15738868
It is based on the current Daytona, which is stupidly big and ugly

>>15738851

Nothing special happend on /g/. Just a few in depth tech pics but they got reposted to further the thread. Otherwise it was pretty boring discussions and swiss meme loving was as popular there as it is here.

Wait what? How is it kept in place? I can't see a possibility. Could you post a pic where it is in the fastened position in that clasp but not on wrist pls? Shit makes me curious but cant find a vid of this specific clasp.

>>15738937
GWM5610 if you're within the signal of a calibration transmitter. Something like the G5600E if not.

>>15739029
Just search "leather deployant" and you'll see pics of that type of clasp.

>>15739029
Once closed it looks like this. Here with the pin in the first hole, so larger than how you would wear it

>>15739041
Thanks. I already knew these clasps, but this one looks different. Especially how the pointy piece of strap is kept in the buckle.
>>15739042
Thx. Aha,so it has a pin for the pointy side? Because it looked to me like it was some sort of friction lock, to reduce pressure points on the leather. It looked to me like you could lift the clasp, adjust the longer side and close the clasp.
And it would be on a spring so it's kept closed.

>>15738419
How reliable are Orient watches? Seiko level reliability or worse? Thoughts on buying centre to replace left which is longer functional? The website sent me a lume shot, which was nice of them I thought.

You probably need solar quartz/or new kinetic if you want reliability like seiko kinetic, I highly doubt any mechanical watch will last for so long (you mentioned that your seiko lasted you more then decade) without service.
Citizen makes plenty solar watches in titanium and sapphire.
btw can you post how bad titanium scratched up on your watch?

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

Big ass edifice coming through

>>15739159
Feels like it's solving a problem in the most complicated and unnecessary way possible. Single fold deployants like the one omega uses are better for the leather straps anyway since you're not bending it sharply at any point like those clasps or regular pin & buckle for that matter.

FUck theres so many divers around the 500 dollar mark I cant decide theres lorier baltic raven nodus. Anyone got a clue what brand is gonna give me the best quality and watch for my dollar around that price mark?

>>15739167
Give us the watches you are considering from each and I'll narrow it down for you.

Mind you specs are not all there is to a watch, if you like something more than the other just get that one.

>>15739162
Yeah, overengineered like hell. I can't imagine the hotspots if you wear that hunk of metal. I got annoyed by a simple butterfly clasp already. The one you posted is a good way and the leather covers the metal part so it's better to wear.
>pin and buckle
The problem with these: you bend the strap drastically every time to get it through the first keeper, that is fixed. They should make a keeper that can be opened and closed. Then pin and buckle could beat the deployants leather saving feature.

>>15739173
You could probably also solve it with one wider keeper that can slide around. Maybe not as "elegant" though.

>"My favourite part of browsing through /wt/ threads? The suspense and excitement when Anon posts his new arrival, slowly opening the package, uncovering the watchbox and finally revealing its contents... it chuffs my bits every time.

>>15739171
Baltic aqua, lorier neptune, nodus sector, even maybe an oris aquis. Just solely off of looks i like the baltic blue gilt diver but I've seen other watches with the same movement for a hundred or two less.

https://youtu.be/hR6o_IQ3UHk

ITS UP BROS!

>>15739159
Silly c8nt can't even get the name of the clasp right. Its 'deployant' not 'deployment'.

>>15739177
Also a possible solution. I don't know if the first keeper is that relevant. It's there to prevent the leather stick away from the wrist, but i'm not sure if that is so much of an issue or at all.

>>15739191
You are literally paying for the design of all of them.

Lorier uses mineral crystals which will scratch more easily but they really suit the tone of the watch and will look "warmer"

Baltic use saphire whichbis going to give a different look but be pretty much impossible to scratch

>>15739197
Just googled and see also results with "deployment", maybe some british english/american english thing. But it seems wrong, i agree.

>>15739203
>Baltic use saphire
You mean acrylic, which will scratch easily but not shatter like sapphire.

>>15739206
Maybe some model but the aquascaphe uses saphire

>>15739191
>Baltic Aqua

Pros: dimensions, double domed sapphire glass, love the retro looks

Cons: meh movement for the price, unsure about lume, expensive extra straps

>Lorier Neptune

Pros: dimensions, lume, bracelet

Cons: movement isn't that amazing for the price but it's considerably cheaper than the Baltic that sports roughly the same movement, looks are kinda lukewarm for me

>Nodus sector

Pros: modern looks of the dial, dimensions, probably price if it's below $300-$400 as it's not listed yet

Cons: not produced yet, movement is as basic bitch as they come although reliable, donno about the bracelet

>Oris Aquis

Pros: looks great, probably the greatest in terms of wow factor, by far the greatest heritage of the 4 that comes with a price tag unfortunately

Cons: Very expensive for a SW-200, purely a diver so it's not as flexible in terms of dressing it up although you probably could, almost 5 times more expensive than your other choices, I'd probably consider a Sinn at that price range.

Tldr: Baltic Aqua seems the best out of those.

Feel like this is a low seiko sleeper hit. If you cab look past the 4R35 movement. Cheaper than buying some guys messed up sarb and does have the ugly cyclops on the owlpenis and its cheaper

I bought my explorer in the time you would take to read that dial anon. Buy the gay thing

speaking of oris, the newer aquis has their brand new inhouse calibre 400 (but at $3,500)
personally not sure how I feel about having '5 DAYS' on the dial but apparently the movement is solid

>But, I was curious to see how this Oris Calibre 400 is performing, since they claim to perform within COSC specifications. I noticed a deviation of less than a second per day over five days. That’s pretty stunning.
https://www.fratellowatches.com/oris-aquis-date-calibre-400-review-the-aquis-to-have/
>So, what about the movement? A lot has been said about the three headline grabbers. To recap, that is five days of power reserve, anti-magnetic up to 2,250 gauss, and a recommended ten-year service interval.
>Even without independent regulatory checks, I experienced an incredibly low rate of deviation. Over five days, the Calibre 400 only gained three seconds — that is less than a second a day.

>>15739285
Oh, I am a wristlet, but as long as there are no overhangs it's fine for me

>>15738937
Like >>15738979 said, GW-5000-1JF is prob the best

Bottom left in the pic

I own this 1920 pocket watch, it works perfectly fine when it's laying with the dial facing the ground but stops after a few minutes when it's positioned like in the pic, and starts working again when I barely touch it. Any idea what it could be and how much it would cost me to get it fixed?

>>15739294

>>15738808
Wait...you only bought one?!?

>>15739288
That movement has issues

>>15739313
like?

>>15739310
It's a Duoface. It counts as 2

>>15739314
https://youtu.be/yJq4Ym0LnhE

>>15739301
Who knows what the issue is. Take it to a good watchmaker and have them take a look at it. Expect to spend a few hundred on a full service if that's what's needed.

>>15739288
Yeah that movement seems insane, HELLOW AND WHALECUM did a good video on it the other day, I don't know I would ever spend that much on it, but it seems like a good pick.

>>15739042
>>15738808
What's your wrist size?

>>15739229
Is there a solar version of this? I have a quartz flightmaster (pic related) but the stem broke off in the movement and it's not worth the $180 to get fixed.

>>15739325
>What's your wrist size?
Think 16-17cm, I think I measured it once

>>15739325
that's not a real flightmaster, only the SNA411 is.
Also you can easily fix that just by sourcing another crown

Is there a substantial difference in quality between the Hamilton H-50 movement and the J800.1 (so basically just an ETA 2824-2)? and if so which one is better?

>>15738484
it's one of the popular gen 1 swatches, I forget the name but it's related to the design, like "big 3" or something. you have to go vintage for hers but I believe there is a similar homage to it currently being made last time I scrolled through their catalog.

>>15739330
It needed the whole movement to be replaced so not as simple as getting a new crown. And I call anything with that design a flightmaster, there are a thousand variations of it.

>>15739329
And that's the medium size? I would have opted for a smaller one but congrats on the purchase regardless. I love the Reverso but have no reason to get a dress watch without any formal events to attend

>>15739229
do it.

>>15739372
>And that's the medium size?
It's one of their big ones, but I really wanted a Duoface. The normal Tribute, which was my second choice, is a bit smaller and very thin and elegant
> I love the Reverso but have no reason to get a dress watch without any formal events to attend
It's not THAT formal, go try one on. Imo the Master is much more formal. I would wear a Reverso with a nice sweater and a shirt no problem

>>15739382
Any pics of face 2?

>>15739372
nigger you just pop out the crown and install a new one
of the modern lineup ONLY the SNA411 is a flightmaster.

>>15739378
is that yours

Probably won't be my main dial, but it's probably the more elegant of the two. Thinking of pairing it with a black alligator strap

>>15738678
I like white dials anyway but I really don't think rose gold goes with black, so it's gotta be white for me

>>15739421
The reverso was made for polo players right. Does that technically make it a sports watch?

>>15739430
Yes

>>15739430
Well, a Duoface is just as vulnerable to mallet strokes as any other watch

one watch collection or do you have some others?

>>15739455
It's basically a GMT complication on a secondary dial. You can set two different timezones on the two dials

>>15739446
How the hell does the third face work? Is there just a really thin movement in there with a hidden crown or pushers?

>>15739446
That is some crazy shit.

>>15739473
It has a very simple mechanism which is actually activated by hidden pushers which come out from the main "body" of the watch when it is in the "locked" position. One mechanism is controlling three dials
You can see the small holes on the upped part of the case in this picture

One watch for now. Sold my new SMP to acquire this. Maybe would get a 6 digit sub in the future. My dad has a gold day date for me down the line.

>>15739546

Imagine being a cute AD girl with a cute french accent and having to deal with smelly and fat YouTubers fingering your watches with no intention of ever buying them while awkwardly hitting on you

>>15739546
>>15739548
yeah I could see myself maybe trying to pick up a 14060 sub at some point down the line.
You didn't like the SMP?
I really like the white dial variant of this model (even though I dont like ceramic bezels and I feel the SMP is too big for me.)

>>15739546
>Sold my new SMP to acquire this.
I don't have enough autism to know the respective specs on this and the explorer like the other anon who accused you of downgrading, but in terms of looks and class you made a giant upgrade imo. good job on getting the smaller dial, too. explorers are the only cool rolexes anymore, or the only cool one that gets posted here a lot, anyway.

>>15739551
thoughts along those lines were definitely in my mind watching it. otoh, she's skating through life in an easy retail job where she makes fat commissions due to the fact that she's a qt woman with a french accent. so, yeah, that dude was annoying, but we just witnessed the worst thing she'll endure in her professional life and very possibly her private life (beyond, like, death of loved ones etc). so, I'm not exactly rooting for her, either.

>>15739568
The JLC girl who helped me try the Reverso was about my age and still a student working in the boutique as a part time job, I don't think they are paid a lot unless they work in like the NYC or Dubai boutiques

>>15739555
I mean, I'd never choose one even if I could drop that kind of money on something as frivolous as an ultra-luxury watch. but from an horology and engineering perspective, it's pretty badassed. and it's super classy-looking instead of all the tacky, gaudy baloney you usually see at that price.

>>15739564
i thought the Sneedmaster was the Reddit watch

>>15739562

>>15738423
those three look the same, they are nice but ot a normie, you just bought the same watch 3 times

>>15739575
they don't make commissions on sales? that's highly unusual for luxury retail. I mean, her hourly might be crap, but 5 or 10% on a jlc on a regular basis is loads more than standard retail.

Look at them side by side...... you paid how much more for the explorer, near x2 the price of the 300m. You'll realise in a few months how much you fucked up, you bought the shitter of Rolexs, its not a gmt or sub. I can just about afford a rolex.

>>15739446

Yeah, i love to not being able to see the minutes from minute 18 to 33.

>>15739678
You cant really compare a decorated tourbillon by one of the best watch makers in the world to a shitty open heart orient anon.

tourbillon =/= open heart

>>15739685
tourbillons are the biggest meme in the watch industry

how does this happen, and why do people buy those watches?

>>15739489

>>15739690
They are pointless and needlessly complex they are the epitome of all this mechanical watch.

>>15739695
literally marketing
sometimes they modify the movement a LOT and the other features are really outstanding and well finished
but 90% of the time it's just marketing

>>15739695
the same ETA is available in watches that cost $150
https://www.jomashop.com/calvin-klein-infinite-watch-k5s3414y.html

>why do people buy those watches?
because they dont care and have money for the luxury goods
how can Chanel sell basic quartz watches for $4000?

Opinions of Maurice Lacroix? No, I can't afford a Royal Oak.

>>15739401
Maybe I didn't explain clearly.

There is a small piece of the stem stuck deep in the movement, so even with a new stem, the crown wouldn't be able to screw down all the way because of the blockage in the movement.

>>15739707
I don't know how much that costs but it looks like an OK fake Royal Oak

>>15739707
>paying almost $2000 for a homage watch
>"The ML115 is a modified and decorated SW200 base"

i think even amongst casual watch people they'd confuse it for a fashion brand. 2 grand for a SW200 is mightily stretching it. At that price point I'd rather use that $2k to buy an original design like the oris big crown or whatever

>>15739707
>Maurice flavored seltzer water

>>15739719
Yeah, but those are vastly different styles. I'm specifically looking for a royal oak lookalike thats not a direct copy. (or oversized like most Chinese ones)

Is there someone that uses something other than several types of mobius for watch servicing? This shit feels like highway robbery.

>>15739666
back away from me, satan!
god knows anon made the right choice

>>15739707
don't listen to those retards it looks really nice. Good quality and the design looks just kind of like the royal oak or an hublot but not similar enough to be classified as an hommage imo. go for it if you like it

>>15739546
Question on selling luxury watches.

How can you genuinely make money selling (or at least break even) when the ebay/chrono24 etc. fees would take a substantial bite off the top line?

Do people only sell on forums or reddit?

>>15739720
heartily chuckled

>>15739666
Yeah I feel like I made the right choice. Thanks anon. Bought the Omega for cost and sold for way more ;)

>>15739735
>Do people only sell on forums or reddit?
unironically yes
but it's kind of funny because some people want to unload watches as fast as possible so they are willing to take a pretty big hit

>>15739666
Thanks for making the side by side image for my lazy ass though

>>15739724
san martin has a nautilus homage with SW200 inside for $440, just something to consider

or maybe you can trying finding the maurice 2nd hand.

You are ready for cyberpunk are ya /wt/

>>15739735
Well I got my watch at cost because I worked AD and got a deal through Omega. So when I sold I sold for more than I paid but the buyer still got a great deal.

>>15739763
If I didn’t already have way too many shitters I would get the gold edition.

>>15739763
a casio royale is unironically a million times more cyberpunk than this gimmicky shit

>>15739763
I like it.
We need more LED watches.

>>15739770
>Casio royal
Why don’t you just buy the real watch instead of a plastic knock off

>>15739776
because I don't want nor need to, and if I want some cyberpunk shit every single version of the AE1200 is more cyberpunk than some LED trash
that technology was left behind for a reason and it doesn't even fit in with a cyberpunk aesthetic.

>>15739763
If only I didn't have to push a button to show the time on these LED watches

Kinda weird that in this time and age, putting a metal rod in motion still uses less energy than lighting a LED.

>>15739707
Edox ressurected their 1970's stainless steel sports watch line Delfin (https://youtube.com/watch?v=WnMR81dZCyM)), with different model series from modern reissues of the original to Royal Oak homages. Pic rel is 42mm and goes for under $500 on jomashop.

>>15739794
not bad for a shitter

>>15738820

any other chronographs in a similar style <1000 USD should i consider before pulling the trigger on this shitter?

Everything is a homage of everything. There are just a bunch of original designs that get revived over and over. Everything else is just a variation of these.

>>15739859
they have souls but its cloned. So their soul level is not as high.

soul is something you imbue to your watch through lived experiences
a total shitter can have soul if it's been with you around the world
a rolex that just sits in a safe until you can flip it to some other retard doesn't have soul
