In a few weeks I'll be racing at the Monterey Historics (2 of my cars were accepted this year). This event is partially subsidized by Rolex, the title sponsor for a long time. Rolex only makes money selling watches, so let's dissect this a bit. It's hilarious to me that there's people that will pay 10-15% of their pretax income on a Rolex (an assembly line watch with a BOM cost of maybe $225). Let's think about this transaction - this person is paying for me to have fun with my vintage race cars, for professional sailors to make money, for already ludicrously rich tennis players to become more rich - in exchange, a little trinket to show EVERYONE ELSE that you made this donation. And how does Rolex pull of their pricing model? By telling you you aren't rich enough to buy one! You get cuck shamed into buying a trinket to prove you are indeed a cuck.

I’m not sure but the hesalite is pretty practical. I’ve had mine for a few years and have not had to repair it at all and I don’t baby the watch. You can polywatch 90% of issues and Omega will replace the hesalite for not much money.

>>17149238
Hmm in that case I might go for the hesalite. Its a bit cheaper and I actually don't like the applied logo on the sapphire.

Was this stolen or something?

bros i've been holding out for an 36 explorer, but i got the call on a 34mm OP with a black dial pic related.
thoughts? I'm a real 6 inch wristlet I must mention. this would also be my first rolex. My other watches are a GS and a cartier. should i pull the trigger on this?

>>17149479
The 34 OP is actually superior because it doesn't have the double batons go for it

>>17149479
Which GS do you own? As a fellow wristlet the only GS that is of interest to me is the entry level quartz at 37mm.

>>17149481
agree i like that, but neither does the explorer. thanks for encouragement.
>>17149486
that's the one friend. I like it very much and wear it day to day.

Can a guy wear a Baby-G (pic related)?
There's a lot of mixed opinions about it online.

>>17149613
and then everyone clapped

Why would you actually wear a modern Rolex unless it's to show off? G-Shock is the new Rolex, as they are currently the ones producing the best accurate and durable watches for everyday wear.

>>17149636
G-Shock are for poorfags.
Poorfags =/= Rolex

>>17149656
Bro literally anyone with a barely median income can buy a Rolex. It's not a wealthy people thing.

>>17149656
Only the modern Rolex is being marketed as a luxury item, old Rolex was marketed as being an accurate durable watch for everyday wear. Sure duing this time only mechanical watches existed and as such were a more expensive luxury product to begin with, but it wasn't out of reach for average people either and because of the durability people could actually justify spending that amount of money.

>>17149659
This is also true.

>>17149586
Boring ass brand

I only buy vegan watches, AMA

I have a mighty need for a watch in the same style as this (MAM Back to the Future). Preferably one that is still in production / isn't overpriced because franchise. I am not a fan of the movies, I just like the watch.

>>17149586
They’re what Rolex used to be. Reasonably priced but very high quality tool watches. I would almost never recommend a watch in that dead zone price range but Sinn is the exception and the 556 is one of their best in my opinion. They are very underrated outside Germany.

>>17149285
the only triggering thing in this image, besides its basicbitch instathot posed placement, is the shitty kaweco sport

>>17149691
This type of virtue signaling is just laughable. Titanium scrap and excess titanium powder is already recycled because it’s easy to reuse and has lots of practical applications. You can just remelt titanium scrap. Thank God Boldr is buying up scrap to use in their shitty watches as opposed to using the materials for anything worthwhile.

>>17149694
>>17149586
What do you think about the U50? Specifically the U50S (black)? I have no idea how their black coating holds up. It's apparently coated over only tegimented models which apparently makes it better off than regular pvd on steel. Thing is, I've scratched and scraped watches more often than really knocked them about, so I don't know how much this supposed "underlying strength" matters in that case.
Also, basically everything listed on Sinn's own factory store has a 28 week fucking wait.
Will probably only ever get worse really.

>>17149710
That’s DLC coating, which is a tougher finish than PVD. PVD is what you usually find on Seikos and microbrands, DLC usually commands more in a price tag. Like any kind of finish coating, it will show wear and tear after heavy use. DLC is only special in that the wear will show up much, much later.

As for the watch itself. Cope cope cope, muh Rolex muh Omega. I’m actually a huge fan of Sinn and their Ickler family cases.

>>17149496
You CAN use it. You SHOULDN'T use it. Buy a normal gshock.

As far as the Speedy and the Seamaster, well it really depends what kind of watch you're looking for.

>>17149731
It's the Citizen 5

>>17149759
I know it's a dress watch and i know they aren't supposed to be on a NATO. It still works. I'm more in the dressy watch camp myself, i don't like divers at all, and i find chronos kinda meh, that's why i prefer this to a speedy. Picrel would be my pick, although yours is very handsome as well.

It does sort of. The Omega OEM NATO looks much higher quality than a regular nato, so it kind of reminds me of those silk-looking straps that watches used to come with decades ago.
Plus, when you want to wear it as an actual dress watch, you can always pop a nice gator skin on and you're right as rain.

>>17149772
Ugly. It's such a shame how far omega dress watches have fallen...

>>17149800
When that was released, that wasn't a dress watch. It was an everyday men's watch. At that time, it was not fashionable to wear a sports watch as a daily wearer.

>>17149774
NOOOOOOO DELETE THIS!

>>17149731
Looks sweet, I like the green dial version. I'd personally either get a Seiko 5 SPRE51 over this or save up a little extra for a Tissot PRX quartz, but I can see this doing very well.

Pretty much every brand and model gets shit on here, so buy and wear whatever you fucking like. Even Casio isn't safe.

>>17149882
Left, top and right are the only original dials.
The bottom is a shitty frankenstein.
The white and cream dials have BLACK hands, the black dial has SILVER hands. That's the only combination possible.
Black and the right one have a kind of rugged metallic dial, while the other one has a smooth finish.
They may have "PAKETA", "RAKETA" or even "PAKEMA" engraved in the dial, depending on the market they were sold.
They're also small watches, with small crowns.
The black Copernicus is not PVD, is some sort of paint that doesn't flake, but only has a very small thickness, so it might be scratched revealing the tin body underneath.
They're all handwind too.
All of the models have a curved glass dome. NOT sapphire. The back is stainless steel.

>>17149899
Casio isn’t safe because they have never made a good watch.

Anyone have a Serica watch? Thinking of getting either the normal Arabic dial or the California dial. Which looks better?

>>17149910
No, it's not
And it looks pretty dogshit in person

>>17149916
Anything looks better than the california dial.

>>17149916
The one on the right right is the best out of all of those

>>17149910
I personally don't see the point, I've got a G-Shock cos I think they're neat and useful to wear when doing anything overly physical, I can't imagine wearing a full metal version that would get scratched to shit as soon as I wore it, but then I guess the metal G-Shock is a fashion watch. For that price I'd prefer to get an oceanus.

>>17149916
I don't have one but I've tried them in their Paris showroom.
The case is very sturdy and compact. It felt rock solid. Basic but well done.
The bracelet on the other hand is thin and flimsy.
Overall a good watch. If you're okay with manual wound then go for it. In that budget I'd get a Baltic.

>>17149903
Tag is infinitely more respectable than any Omega could be.

>>17149906
>There are 2 categories of watches on /wt/

Yes, but the fun is when anon's watch gets shit on for reason A and he copes by trying to convince everyone it's for reason B.

So, where are you? Is it a AD of the brands?

>>17150093
Unfortunately they're also huge and wear large.

>>17150096
I thought you might like that.
I came away with the desire for a jlc of some sort, ultrathin is like 8400 tho. Polaris is pretty nice.

Headed over to the GRAND SEIKO as next maybe

That yellow gold El Primero makes me salivate, that's cool as fuck.

>>17150108
They had all the versions, apparently not hard to find

>>17150105
>I thought you might like that.
I like it because im a wristlet and also the full vintage style case and ladder bracelet presentation is just perfect.

Depends, you can go many ways. Why do you like to wear tracksuits? That may give a little more direction because as is you could go for a drug dealer/criminal look with a gold (colored) or otherwise blingy watch, something more casual and sporty looking like a chunky G-Shock, something comfy and casual, or maybe a bit more terrorist inspired with a Casio F-91W.

2000-3000 I have a Seiko presage and not much else
>>17150157
This one is good but way out of my range, was considering the oyster prince.
>>17150161
I mainly wear them because they're cheap, comfortable affordable and I'm very athletic. I don't really go for any particular look. I'm considering a diver of some sort

>>17150166
>I don't really go for any particular look. I'm considering a diver of some sort
Go for it, wear whatever you like and it'll probably work. Especially if you're very athletic a larger watch like most divers would look good.

Thoughts on these long jeans? I think it's a bit silly.

>>17150171
Great watch for someone who wears suits and is around 30 or above. Otherwise it looks out of place.

>>17150171
Definitely a homo watch
I cannot imagine a straight guy wearing one
Also, Longjeans are dogshit

Some tag heuer aqaracer

>>17150171
This is for gay chinese men

>>17150186
That looks good. I'm gonna go to my AD and see what they have in stock for aquaracers as well.

>>17150056
Are they still new in stock??? Haven’t they been disco’s like 4 years ago?

Why is this watch soaked with alpha male energy?

>>17150213
the swatch once again is better

>>17150143
I'm on the fence about these, can you elaborate on your recommendation?

>>17150227
Yeah that one is for sure dripping with male energy (cum)

Nice looking sports watch with decent finishing and properly applied lume an indicies. Good size, good colors. I just think it looks like a sports watch with it's own dna and not being an obvious homage of anything.
I guess you could compare it to stuff from seiko and they dont have any answers in that price range. Compared to slightly more expensive competitors like the tissot gentleman (pic related) i think it comes out ahead, with sharper finishing and a nicer set of hands and indices.
I mean it's still a citizen so its not for everyone but its one of the best making wstches they have made in years outside of their 2-3 thousand dollar chronomaster high accuracy quartz series

>>17150046
Nice! What is this one? I Love that dial!!!

>>17150256
Seiko Presage Sharp edge series, lovely dials indeed.

>>17150256
Seiko presage sharp edged

IWC has released an updated Pilot. The Mark XX.

Still 40mm but the lugs are shorter and the case is a little thinner at 10.8mm
New movement has 120 hours (!!) of power reserve.
Date window is back to being white and has been moved a little further from the center of the dial.
It now also has 100m of water resistance.

Overall, if they have a version on a bracelet coming, this looks like a solid set of improvements from the Mark XVIII.

>>17150280
>New movement has 120 hours (!!) of power reserve
Is it still just a powermatic 80 with a bigger mainspring?

The black dial looks incredible in direct sunlight. It's really difficult not to stare at it constantly if you wear one.

>>17150287
No, it's a cal. 32111 which is an update to the 32110 which is based off the old ETA 2892 architecture (whose patents ran out decades ago) but is manufactured by ValFleurier, who is a movement manufacturer for a lot of Richemont brands.

The beat rate hasn't been slowed, like Swatch does with the Powermatics.

(IIRC, the only Richemont brands that do ALL of their movement work in-house are ALS and JLC, all the others use ValFleurier to one degree or another, for example, Piaget makes their own Altiplano movements, but uses Cartier architecture for the Polos.)

what if you go into a rolex AD and ask for a submariner but you call it by its reference number?

>>17150309

Completely unrelated, but I still think this is one of the most clever and simple ways to improve power reserve. Kudos to Swatch.

>>17150309
You literally just get on your knees and ask for whatever submariner they have on stock

All of your watches look the same, am I supposed to be impressed or something?

>>17150326
mine has snoopy on it

>>17150326
Be the change you want to see and post something unique then.

Clever? shure
Kudos to swatch? Nah
The main reason they did it was that consumers started paying attention to watch movements and started asking why swatch was selling 2824/2892 movements in $500 watches all the way up to $5,000-$8,000 watches and they needed to create some market segmentation. Same reason they were trying to stop selling 2824 movements to microbrands because the micros were selling nice looking watches with those movements for $600

You can find online catalogues of Raketa which can show you original dials if you want to avoid frankens. Pic related is all original copernicus dials, movement is supposed to be 2609HП written on the bridge (2609NP when googling)

The watch should be 12H movement and not the 24H movement Raketa also makes.

It's not a curved glass dome. It's flat stepped glass. There's no dome, like a telescope.

Cases are made out of not tin, but brass or some shit that gets exposed if you sweat on it too much.
