Is he in the wrong? I think he's retarded.

>>17188870
If he wants to pay more for an untouched model so be it.

>>17188872
It's the Tag Heuer Carrera red. I don't think non-display models even exist.

The red retails for $6k. He got an offer for 4.8k.

>>17188901
thats a nice watch if you like the red. not having tag on the dial is awesome. they did a reissue for a white/gold heuer back a decade or more id luike to have

>>17188907
It is a pretty cool watch, I'll probably tell him he's a retard and should go buy it unless it's already purchased. I wouldn't buy any tag that isn't a Monaco myself.

>>17188908
monaco is 2 thicc 4 me :-(
heres one of the 90s reissues
they should do more, if they made these again, id scoop

>>17188912
It's nice that those reissues are actually the same size as the original.

Just because it was mentioned last thread: watch manufacturers DO replace your whole movement, but they don't just throw it away. They replace it with another refurbished movement. Tudor definitely does this. Cartier & Omega do this on some models. Rolex...probably does it but it's hard to tell. If your watch is cheaper than Tudor, they almost certainly throw your old movement in the trash. You can look it up on the Rolex forums if you want to see Tudor owners seething over it. I'm not sure about brands like JLC or GS where you start to get into more delicate finishing, complications, and much lower volume of sales. Obviously as you get lower numbers of watches back for service the less viable this becomes as opposed to servicing it traditionally.

>>17188976
Shhh you'll hurt the feelings of delusional anons who think that their mass produced garbage movements are somehow special.

>>17188976
Full on replacement and throwing away movements is an inevitability, even for luxury brands. There simply isn't enough professionals to go around, and therefore replacing the entire movement which is probably mass-produced in part or in whole in China is more cost effective and reasonable than waiting months in backorders for someone to repair it by hand. It's probably already happening, and is just not disclosed.

>>17188943
I've heard Macy's does have good sales on Seiko and whatnot

>>17188976
Rolex makes millions of watches each year, they'd be utterly retarded to not mass produce certain components or entire movements to fullfill warranty claims. Anyone who thinks that there's never been a case where they've full on tossed a movement is a delusional fanboy.

>>17188976

They don't know if their watch was repaired with a brand-new movement (not that bad) or a refurbished movement that broke on someone else's watch already (used parts is bad).

Hello-

What is the deal with Piaget? Do you rate this brand? It is in the ultra luxury tier in the chart, but is owned by Richemont, barely produced in house, and you can buy any model off their website with no delay.

Some of the watches are beautiful, but I just don’t know how to feel about the brand. Any insights or comments? Should I just get the blue polo if I like it?

>>17189122
>It is in the ultra luxury tier in the chart
that's a meme
>but is owned by Richemont
So are JLC, Lange, and VC
>barely produced in house

>and you can buy any model off their website with no delay
????????
Are you schizophrenic?

Piaget is known for their ultra-thin movements. If you want an ultra-thin dress watch, Piaget is a good choice. Avoid everything else and buy used for the love of god

I cannot stand people saying "True GMT" when they mean Traveler GMT. Traveler GMT's didn't exist until the 1982 GMT Master II.

The only watch I would consider a "True GMT" is one where neither the GMT hand or hour hand are independently adjustable like the original Rolex GMT Master and Glycine Airman.

>>17189127

You can do this with day, other Richemont brands Lange or VC

Independently adjustable GMT hand makes the rotating bezel redundant and triggers my autism. If the GMT hand is independently adjustable, I would prefer a fixed bezel.

>>17189144
Pizza costs $50 where I live.

>>17189146
Yes, I also agree. If you're a pilot the bezel is much more useful than the adjustable hand.

>>17188956

Be a little realistic anon, your toy isn't luxury or exclusive as you think if its produced in the millions to the masses.

>>17189154

Omega has the most retarded marketed and design teams.
They have all these great designs from the 30s to the early 70s in their catalogue, but they completely ignore them.
Instead they make reissues of their most hated designs that almost got the brand killed before Swatch saved from bankruptcy. What they did to the Constellation is unforgivable.

>>17189395
Thank you for this. Now I feel much less self conscious about my own fat wrists.

>>17189426
What they did to the Seamaster 300 is also revolting.
I'd be the first in line to buy a reissue of pic related. Instead they keep fucking up their "heritage models" with design elements that were never included on their iconic models (like that dumb ass sandwich dial wtf).
Fucking hell modern Omega is a mess.

Bought this seiko. My first automatic watch that i bought with my own money. Had it for about a month so far and I absolutely love it. It runs a little fast and the crystal scratched in like a day. So i plan to take it to a jeweler to replace it with sapphire crystal and see if they can make it run a little more accurately, but other than that I really love it. My next watch will be a rolex though, looking at vintage oyster perpetual dates.

They're very faithful to the Moonwatch (4th generation of the Speedmaster).
But for some reasons they keep fucking up the original 1957 reissues (which happens to be my favorite). Instead of the original 6 oclock subdial they've put a date window (?) and that cringe "CO AXIAL CHRONOMETER" text. Also faux luminova.

Watch geeks wouldn't like it because they want actual tritium. Normal people wouldn't like it because they want their watch to be perfect forever.

>>17189602
Vintage watches are a pain in the ass.

>>17189602
If you buy an old watch then you have to confront the fact that accurate and tasteful mechanical timekeeping is a solved problem and has been for half a century, and that the entire edifice of modern watch culture is a desperate larp searching for progress where there is none to be found.

>>17189615
>Vintage watches are a pain in the ass.
No, they really aren't.

The people who complain about vintage watches being finicky are the guys who bought a vintage whatever out of India for 200 bucks back when they started getting into watches and thought "vintage" was a cheap way to get into the brands they really wanted but couldn't afford. They ended up with some half-working franken that fell apart. Rather than admit they just got taken, they tell themselves a story about how vintage watches are fragile.

>>17188777
My Pobeda isn't even on that list.

>>17189618
>I'd like to but I don't want people to think I'm a poorfag.

>>17189621
I've had a Datejust from the late 1980s and now I have a modern Explorer. It's night and day in terms of robustness and daily use.
I agree that watch designs peaked in the 60s, but modern watches are far more resistant to chocs and magnetic fields. Steel bracelets and clasps are infintly better and feel more substantial.

Reeditions of old models are the way to go but they have to be made thoughtfully. IMO Rolex got it right with the 2021 Explorer, I wish they had the same design philosophy with the Sub and the GMT Master. The new Breitling Navitimer is also (almost) perfect.

>>17189645
>IMO Rolex got it right with the 2021 Explorer,
The old Explorer was a sports watch. The current blingy Copesplorer with its 19mm bracelet is an OP trying to larp as a sports watch.
Guess the waiting list for the Sub was a little too long for you, eh?

>>17189595

>>17189645
Using a steel bracelet in the first place is a form of modern deviancy.

>>17189656
Americans need steel bracelets, anon. They tend to sweat a lot since they're fat and have poor diets. All that greasy sweat will rapidly ruin a leather watch band.

>>17189651
>19mm bracelet
Nobody buys a Rolex to put it on a nato (or even worse a leather strap). 19mm straps aren't even hard to find these days by the way.
>Guess the waiting list for the Sub was a little too long for you, eh?
If I had to buy a Sub (which I won't cause I have no affinity for diving) I'd get a 16610. I hate maxi cases.

Same for the GMT Master II.
My dream watch is basically the case, dial and bezel of the previous model with the bracelet and movement of current models.

>>17189621
This.
I find all the complaints about vintage watches (or even modern dress watches) are all just "what happens if..." questions that are completely divorced from reality.

Individually those things are unlikely yes.
But what if you some overlap?

It's more likely than you'd think.

Cope, as in "I spent the price of an automobile on a watch and it was totally justifiable because of the craftsmanship." Or "This Chinese clone gets me 98% of the way there at a 1/100th the price"?

>>17189695
Anyone is free to cope however they feel like they need to. The chart simply states facts, far be it fro me to tell anyone how to deal with their grief.

Is this true watchbros?

>>17188916
Man, that is a really nice, simple, clean design. Why can't modern watch makers produce more stuff like this? (with great lume.)

>>17188926
>>17188936
Fucking owned.

I asked /diy/ but perhaps this is a better place to ask:
I'd like to purchase a Bulova Computron watch. The problem is that these LED watches only display the time when a button is pressed, making it a two hand operation. Is it possible, either DIY or by paying a jeweller, to modify the watch to constantly display the time? Obviously this would effect battery life, I hope that there is a new, lithium battery the same size as the original that would mitigate this problem.

>>17188743
It's as tasteless as it is expensive. Whatever happened to welth and class being synonymous?

>>17189671
>I find all the complaints about vintage watches (or even modern dress watches) are all just "what happens if..." questions that are completely divorced from reality.

I used to be much more into sports watches when I was younger. My collection was basically just divers and sports chronographs. I wouldn't touch anything that didn't have AT LEAST 100m of water resistance with a screw-down crown.
Then, of course, I realized that when I do anything remotely sporty, skiing, hiking, camping, sailing, etc. I'm wearing a G-Shock or a Garmin.

Pic related is my daily watch. It's thinner, lighter, and far classier than some beefed-up diver that can go 1000m under water.

>>17189703
Yes it's true.
The sea-dweller works down to 1220 meters, but not a meter more.

>>17189703
>plummet
its clickbait like every news article published in the last 10 years
prices are down maybe 10% from their all time high

Can someone explain Omega's design choice to me?
What's the purpose on fauxtina lume on this? Makes no sense, the Diver 300 is a modern design and the case is in titanium. It looks like this watch is trying to be super modern and vintage at the same time.
Also I don't think James Bond would be wearing a watch with the "007" logo engraved on the back.

The perfect watch

It's bright enough to read the dial and not a photon more, and that's all that you need.

Literally miles ahead the F-91W in every possible way.

>hi I’m Tim if you like this watch pee on me

Looking to get into watches, I want to be well informed before I drop a significant amount of money on a good watch. Any advice on getting up to speed quickly? Also curious if there are any decent wrist watches that leave the mechanisms exposed like picrel.

>>17189809
>I want to be well informed before I drop a significant amount of money on a good watch.
The only thing you need to know is Rolex.
Buy one, whichever one you like, and you're set for life. You'll never need another watch.

>>17189809
Forgot pic

>>17189719
open it and fuck the button up?

>>17189720
Not going to lie, I fucking love this watch without the pave dial.

>>17189723
nice, anon. Good choice.

>>17189809
Under 5k your best bet is a Seiko or Casio. Don’t bother with affordable Swiss brands like Mido, Hamilton, Oris etc. I’d go with a nice Seiko Prospex diver if I were starting over.

>>17189748

u mirin' my breitling bro?

>>17189719
>Only displays the time when a button is pressed
Wtf, an aliexpress shitter that looks exactly like that watch and doesn't need a button prompt to display the fucking time. Bulova is retarded and scamming you.

Fitting, because we call rolexfags, faggots.

>>17189843
Bulova's relevance died as soon as they were bought my soitizen. That and their "moonwatch" was nerfed into a fucking quartz chineseshitter.

>>17189851
>Tudor
Nah, that's just the cope brand. Rolex doesn't even make a majority of its movements.

>>17189851
no one with any self respect would buy a tudor

>>17189144
Refer to the chart. Pizza Hut is best consoomer pizza, papa johns is for Calvin Klein owners and domino’s is for Rolex owners . People with real luxury watches have brick oven fired gourmet pizza

>>17189233
Breitlings are dope. I’d rather have one breitling than 3 rollies

Retarded question. I want either one of the gold or silver casio digitals,, but having difficulty narrowing it down. Gold or silver face and matching band. Price range is 50 and under with flexibility
Any reccs?

>>17189279
That seven sins watch is dope as fuck though. With the switchblade hands. I forgot who makes it

>>17189311
Is swatch a brand or the group that includes tissot? Most tissot watches I’ve seen are boring and dumb. But there are a few that shine like crazy diamonds and I want them

>>17189379
I wish my dad was abusive and gave me this before he walked out on us and it’s all I have of him then I become a stuntman getaway driver who puts it on his steering wheel. Is that so much to ask?

>>17189876
Tissot is part of swatch group yes. The only thing worth looking at from their collection is Everytime Swissmatic, PRX and Gentleman Powermatic. Everything else is filler. Their movements are throwaway though if you care about that, but if you're a poorfag you wouldn't care.

>>17189842
Based. I bet you eat Rolex owners for breakfast

>>17189879
The prx is one of the ones I like. But the visodate looks awesome. For a cheap watch i think it’s very sharp looking

>>17189881
Dick first

Yo the chinks are making fakes of those lesbian fish watches
I was hoping it would be a knockoff but they come with the actual brandname on the dial
Almost makes me want to buy a fake watch

Rolexfags will NEVER EVERV know this feel.

>>17189969
Non sports Rolex models you should be able to get within 3 months now. Last time I went a coupe weeks ago there was an op34 and a datejust 36 for sale

>>17189730
I think Daniel Craig helped design that one

>>17189972
That's because Euros and French people are too poor to buy watches.

>>17189851
Tudor is just people who can't afford or get a Rolex trying to feel like the own a Rolex. Or in other words: Holy cope.

>>17188777
Brietling are higher quality than Rolex and I will die on this hill

>>17189421
AH PAGAHNEE DUH SOIN!

https://youtu.be/BdVIL4-Hhvs?t=3414

Can you identify this watch please?

>>17189595
What does this even mean?

>>17189904
cute and hot

>>17188752
>AR mag facing wrong direction
>glow sticks dangling by carabiner asking to get snagged

The Seiko 5 snk805 is the first automatic and real watch I've ever bought years ago. I quickly upgraded to other watches, before going back to it and it is now currently my daily. Why? Perfect size for my small wrist, has lume thay lasts through the night, something that much more expensive watches don't achieve, 3atm water resistance, never had an issue wearing it in a pool, which is all the swimming I'll ever done. I've regulated accuracy to +5 a day. I just can't justify paying more than $100 for a watch now.
Call it poor fag cope all u want.

>>17189977
Nah. Omega is the definitive cope brand. You buy one because it's the only logical thing to do when you've given up on buying a Rolex. Literally every Omega owners I know wanted a Rolex in the first place but decided to settle the second best option, and are incredibly self conscious about their watch.

Tudor is obvioulsy marketed towards younger men. You buy one when you're 25 in order to get a taste of that Rolex you'll buy in 5 or 10 years. It acts as a reminder to stay focused on your objectives and never give up.

A 25 years old guy with a Tudor gives positive vibes (humble and ambitious).
A 30 years old guy with an Omega gives negative vibes (impatient and salty).

>>17190007
Omega makes better watches than Rolex. Reminder that Omega...
>went to the moon
>went deeper than the Deepsea
>is worn by James Bond

>>17189984
Best guess it's a Tissot Seastar chrono. Looks like the markers, case, and lugs match pretty well.

thoughts on the Casio W800H? It looks pretty nice to me but I don't know anything about watches. I found it for $25 on Amazon but I saw a video of someone saying it goes for $17 normally.

>>17189980
That watch is based. The Datora is even better.

>>17190007
You're the retard every ad man on this planet dreams of. Omega is just another entry level Swiss brand, but at least they have unique history and designs in their books, whereas Tudor is literally nothing but an homage to the real thing. Their "heritage" is just being an affordable cope for the poors. Buying a Tudor just tells me you're like the brand itself, a fucking husk.

>>17190024
Thank you, it's definitely it, I can see the date window and the seastar/30 bar text and everything.

>>17189356
That's cool

>>17190030
Go for it, great choice. Durable, good water resistance, nice big numbers
Those negative black screens can be a little hard to read in direct sunlight but they are fine indoors.
You might be able to find it a few $ cheaper grom a seller on ebay but the price might just be higher because on inflation.
If you are worried about the legibility just get one with a screen like pic related from the same model line

>>17189871

>>17190007
There's nothing more hilarious than flexing my Rolex on an Omega owner. It's always the same reaction in their eyes, a mix or regret, rage and panic.
My favorite thing to do is tell them something like this
>oh I like Omega too but after trying a Rolex I knew it was the right brand for me... I'm currently thinking on my next watch and Omega has crossed my mind but I think I'll just buy another Rolex. Sure it's more expensive but who cares right?
It breaks them.
