>>17204643
It's photoshopped, note the bulging floorboards around the hand

We need to go back to "the olde chart."

>>17204677
But don't forget to cope.

It's real. How much is this gonna cost

>>17204655
The San Maritn "guy" is a wax figure, as fake as their watches.

Invicta just won.

what is engine-turned bezel

>>17204695
It’s a pattern on metal made by a machine never seen it on a bezel though post it

A shame Rolex is the only non-meme brand that makes fluted bezels watches that have good finishing.

Anyone ever go to one of those Invicta cruises? Honestly sounds like a lot of fun

>>17204677
This chart is very upsetting to me. Can you guys stop posting it? I can’t afford a Rolex and it makes me feel bad about my Tudor which I love so much.

>mfw I can't afford a A. Lange & Söhne

>>17204707
Nice try frenchie

>>17204710
So? Why do you want one? Because unless you get a good, complicated one, the only question will be "Couldn't get your foot in the door at the Patek boutique?"

>>17204716
>Why do you want one?
The best finishing in the industry outside of independents.

>>17204716
Wait so Lange is to Tudor as Patek is to Rolex. Oof

>>17204715
I’m pretty new to the hobby and not French. I don’t think it’s nice to shame people for their watches they like.

>>17204722
>Wait so Lange is to Tudor as Patek is to Rolex.
Of course not. In fact, unless you're paying above 50k, any Lange is miles better than Patek.

>>17204721
Yeah, but you can afford the independents at that point too.

>>17204725
Based on the finishing and the beautiful and intricate movements right?

>>17204725
Also I would not be paying that much ever honestly. Pretty jelly of the people who can spend that much on a watch, I would have nothing but grails if that were the case. I made the most of my middle class income to get a nice collection going I think though so I’m still thankful. It’s only human to want more, and I admit that I do.

>>17204730
Yes, obviously.

>>17204726
>You can afford the independents at that point
Not the ones with the good finishing.

>>17204732
Why do you think Patek is inferior?

>>17204732
What sort of independent can't you get once you get into the 50k+ range?

Can smartwatches be /fa/ ?

>>17204733
It's a known fact among the industry, that Patek puts lesser effort in watches that aren't as expensive, while Lange exceeds in finishing and puts an equal amount of effort in his most expensive and more "affordable" watches as well.

70 hour power reserves with one main spring was a mistake

>>17204734
>What sort of independent can't you get once you get into the 50k+ range?
Dufour, Journe (you won't get one from the boutiques), Greubel Forsey, Richard Mille, Lang & Heyne, Gronefeld

>>17204682
christ i hate hypebeasts

>>17204747
You're right. I'm not disputing that. But more importantlym though, who fucking cares (apart from nerds) about any of this?

One is a Patek, and the other is some Richemont-owned German zombie brand founded in 1990.

>>17204749
I'm not sure what you mean. I have a Groenefeld 1 Hertz in platinum on order and they were very happy to take my money.

>>17204753

youre not

mad

are you?

>>17204756
OK, I see. Yes, they have no stock and aren't taking future orders. However, if you talk to them, tell them what you want, they'll arrange for a special run. In my case, it's the platinum 1 Hertz. Myself and three of my friends (not really friends, but collectors) opted in for an order and the Groenefeld brothers said, "OK, limited edition of 10, we'll get to it in about two years."

literally every boomer wears a rolex why would you want that lame boomer shit? yes rolex makes probably the best sports you can buy, watches by other manufacturers have basically have copies of rolex models but with their own design mixed in and sometimes it looks even better than a rolex

>>17204752
I care. And a lot. If I had 40k to spent on a single watch, I'd definitely buy a Lange for that exact reason. It is the epitome of haute horology. It doesn't matter that it's owned by Richemont. In fact, it actually speaks higher for them that they have hiked to top in just 30 years or so.

Stop right there. "IF" is carrying way too much baggage there. You don't have 40k, or even 4k to ever spend on a single watch. So really, your opinion is completely irrelevant.

>>17204767
I knew you'd cope. It's ok. You're still mad. You'll respond saying you're not, but that will further drive home how fucking mad you are that someone else can have the things you want.

>>17204768
Not him but you’re wasting your life talking like that to people.

>>17204762
Why would you want to fuck a 10/10 at a bar when you can just fap? It ain’t the real thing homie, buying homages is really sad and cope.

I make about $55,000 a year and am having a hard time justifying purchasing any watch worth $1,000.

How do most normal people afford “””luxury””” watches without taking out a loan or going into debt with monthly payments (which would be incredibly stupid)?

In b4 poorfag

>>17204943
Just get a Citizen.

>>17204943
>How do most normal people afford “””luxury””” watches without taking out a loan or going into debt with monthly payments
They don’t. Luxury watches are for rich people.

>>17204943
the luxury of being rich affords them the luxury of owning a luxury watch. Which is why it's odd that dude is showing off his rolex when puts jeans away all day at hollister.

>>17204953
Already explained this. A rolex is a rolex. DOesn't matter if they work at McDonalds and live with their mom and saved. It's still a ROOOLEX.

>>17204954
not if they bought it off /r/watchreps lol

>>17204947
I find it hard to believe that everyone who owns an Omega, Rolex, JLC, etc on /r/watches or here is making six figures

>>17204956
You might be able to scrape together the money for a luxury watch but that doesn’t mean you can afford it.

>>17204956
they're not. They work shitty retail / food service jobs. Doesn't matter if you own a watch worth 1 million dollars. If you work a shitty job it instantly loses its status symbol and becomes strange. Like you don't have your priorities straight? If you can afford that watch, you can afford to get a better job, and move out of your moms place

>>17204960
>>17204958
Refer to the chart and come back to me lol.

>>17204954
It’s about how pretty and shiny it is and it is about looking good in it. I will splurge on random stuff like that only because it’s pretty.

>>17204965
Might as well buy a Fossil or a Guess watch.

>>17204960

I’m about to buy it. Can’t wait to correct the girls asking me about country flags on my watch just to tell them I sail without me bringing the subject, you know? Like a cool guy would. And I love the watch which is a plus too

All I want is a green 36mm Oyster Perpetual bros...
Why can't I have one at retail?

>>17205124
cartier

>niggas posting with the 41mm
>copped the blue 36mm because i’m a wristlet

i would feel bad but honestly the 36 has a better dial anyway

Where can I get a watch without any branding like picrel and not pay 500$ for it? Even cheap stuff on Amazon always has the brand on it.

>>17205152
You can, just ask for one and wait a few weeks, its a fucking oyster perpetual they make 400,000 of them a year

>>17205216
Most of the watches in this shop have a no logo option, and it should be the kind of style you are looking for. Yes they are fine watches for the money you can find reviews on YouTube if you are interested.

>>17205216
Also if you weren't specifically after a field watch like your picture this store also has no logo options for most watches they sell.

Hello.

I'm a marketing assistant at Reichmont SA, and would like to ask you watch enthusiasts what we need to do to get you to LIKE this BRAND.

CASIO already done this.

Damn...

>>17205292
These are all very valid points, well said. Furthermore, the logo of VC triggers many of us because it has an undeniable similarity to the SS logo from Germany or even worse, the Christian cross. As a proud non-binary, I think it would be great idea to just put the LGBT as the permanent replacement to the PTSD-inducing cross.

>>17205306
retard should’ve bought a safe

>>17205273
The red Alpinist is the older black dial with hex-sector and splash of red font. If you’re going white dial, find the white with silver indices—the “Ghost”. Pretty sure it’s discontinued already so might take a minute. The new “Red” would probably be the sharktooth model. Pic related, both models.

>>17205306>>17205310

Brehs, did he get insurance? No safe and possibly no insurance. Fucking guh

>>17205306
>>17205310
If I had that collection I’d keep them in the bank.

>>17205315
If you have the kind of money to buy them you also have the money to get insurance and take all other precautions but the thing that I think people fail at with watches is you need to keep a low profile if you don’t want to get robbed. These dudes who flex with their watches and let everyone know what they have put themselves at risk. Here he is just posting his face and who knows if he posted his name too.

I have a shittier collection than he did but I insured them and don’t even post on Reddit or talk about my watches outside of my family. All of this should be obvious but people can’t help but flex Kek

I have valuable personal property insurance on my watches and my insurance company required a safe that was 30 minute tool resistant and 6 minute torch resistant.

An adjuster even came out to verify that I had the safe before granting the policy.

I highly doubt that dumbfuck had insurance and/or a safe.

He honestly deserves to have his shit stolen.

>>17205051
I wish I didn't know what a cuck cage was but that is all I see. Yes the internet has warped my mind.

>>17204943
There is nothing wrong with that. Everyone has an individual concept of value. I don't even make that much and I have spent about $6,000 on watches. It all depends what you spend your money on. I only spent money on watches because I had money saved and got bored with nothing else to spend it on. I was on track to buy an $8000 watch but I don't feel comfortable spending over $2000 on a single watch unless it's a watch I wear almost daily.

>>17205438
Unironically nothing wrong with that but I will tell you if you have your heart set on a watch for years that you could actually comfortably acquire, don’t try to scratch the itch with something you don’t love but it’s cheaper.

For me I make around 65k and spent 40k on watches because of inheritance money. My collection still sucks compared to people who actually have a lot of money, so even if you spend more you still can feel inadequate. There are people who bought flashier watches who want a Patek and it eats away at them.

It’s never enough, just make sure you love it.

>>17205051
Would like to try it before purchasing

>>17204818
This is a pretty bad fake.

>>17204943
They either inherit money or just buy a citizen and call it a day.

>here ya go, son.
>your granda papa left you his PATEK PHILIPPE in this will.
>it's a shitter

How do you respond?

>>17205468
I keep it as an heirloom and pass it down to my kid anyway. That bracelet is so fucked though

>>17205459
I agree. I learned early on that if you buy a cheaper watch to compensate for a more expensive watch you will never be satisfied and will likely end up buying the more expensive watch as well. I'm cursed and lucky to have a specific type of autism where little things bother me. It saves me a lot of money. I'm actually pretty happy with my collection at the moment. There is nothing else I want right now.

>implying you need more

>>17205468
Sell it, buy something I like

>>17205471
That’s very good, you sound like you approached things in a sound way.

For me I approached money and watches in a Nuevo-riche sort. I had some bad influences in my life (gf) which exacerbated things, but at the end of the day it was my choice. I consciously didn’t want to, but I did without realizing it. You begin to realize buying designer brands or hype watches is not only low class but it also leaves you a man without a country. People with less money hate you for dunking of them and wealthier people think you are a nog.

If you really have money, and you have had it for a long time and you don’t have crippling insecurities, you still want nice things but you more importantly want to be left alone and not receive that kind of attention.

>>17205472

What color Monaco? Standard blue? Vintage or the reissue? I’ve been pretty interested in one myself.

You don’t want to let people with less ever know your good fortune. Only speak with someone who has equal or more if you don’t want to hurt anyones feelings.

>>17205518
I have decided on this one, but would be happy with the vintage as well. The right handed-winder just doesn’t work for me.

>>17205516
Lmao if you can’t be friends with people of differing incomes. I’m in my 20s so having a flashy watch just looks gaudy or fake. It will bring literally nothing but judgement. Those that actually can appreciate the cost of one will just also think it was a poor use of money.

I like it already, i'll just never have enough money to buy one.

I will NEVER buy a watch from Swatch or Richemont Groups.
I'm only interested in brands that are fully independent and make their own movements.

>>17205710
Fair play. Do you think that they will do what they did to Omega to Lange. My new grail is a Lange and from what I gather it’s still pretty independent but I don’t know for how long before they get milked.

>>17205714
You shouldn't talk to that guy, he's an ESL poorfag. Omega is owned by Swatch, Lange is owned by Richemont. Richemont is less evil than Swatch. Lange has been left alone and will continue to be left alone because it is their halo brand along with Vacheron. Richemont tends to leave their good brands to their own devices like Lange, VC, and JLC. It's only shitter brands where they step in and typically get them to step up their game.

It's the other way around. Lange is basically a leech bankrolled by profitable Richemont brands like Panerai. This is the reason conglomerates exist, to take money from profitable brands and give it to the unprofitable brands.

>>17205724
Cope.
IWC and Panerai buy ETA movements.
Vacheron and Piaget (which larp as Haute Horlogerie) get some of their movements from Cartier.

https://watchbase.com/vacheron-constantin/caliber/1326
And of course they never mention it on their websites. They even call these movements "manufacture". Imagine buying a 15k watch and realizing you get the same movement as in a 5k Cartier. That's deceptive marketing.

Just for that I'd stay away from ALS. They make some nice designs but you just can't trust Richemont.

>>17205770
Entry level models on iwc and VC only tho. Who cares about panerai

>>17205770
I'm aware of ValFleurier (probably much more aware than you are). This is standard practice across the industry. Ever heard of La Joux-Perret? How about Kenissi? Vacheron uses 1 (one) outsourced movement in the most entry level FiftySix. The Polo is also an entry level model. Using movements from other manufacturers has been common practice since the dawn of wristwatches.
>you just can't trust Richemont
Lmao. As opposed to who? Patek who stops using the Geneva Seal so they can cut cost on their finishing while simultaneously raising prices? You couldn't be more cucked than by blowing a Patek AD to get on the preferred client list only to get offered a $40k Calatrava that is worse than a $25k Lange.

Why doesn't Citizen sell their good watches in the US? All we get are shitters mostly

Top kek. Though I very much agree with your final point that your typical 25k Lange trades over your typical 50k patek

>>17205710
Show your watches then.
>Mfw you only has shitters.

>>17205724
Wow and you didn’t even berate me for being mistaken. Thanks for the information.

>>17205724
>>17205785
This guy knows what he is talking about.
Which is weird, since we're in WT.
But TRUE nonetheless.

>Rolex only ships around 3,500 Pepsi’s per year worldwide and there are 57 million millionaires who can easily afford the grey market premium.

>Rolex only ships 600 watches to each AD per year, only 250 are for men, only 100 are stainless steel, and only 50 are the 8 sports models. And that AD has 1,500 people on waiting lists for them.

Rolex is it’s own economy.
>OMEGA is not it's own economy.
teehee.

Should I get this Certina diver? I like the looks, 700€

There is also a blue version but I prefer the red.

>>17206005
>>17206001
I was considering this one as well, but I went with the Citizen Fugu diver instead since I'm a two tone tard

>>17206015
I tried Citizen BN0200 and even of it's titanium the build quality seems much worse, especially the glass.

This is how Certina fits me

>>17206033
this shitty shop can't clean their shit, everything had dust. But it's good place to try on watches in my city.

>>17206066
It reminds me of those really old and cheap Mercedes seniors drive. Rolex in general has been beaten to the ground by normies, it’s basically Jabari-tier to wear. It’s the guys who have a middle management job with BMWs who judge cars they feel lesser than and cut them off out of an illusion of superiority. Of course a Rolex is more well made than a BMW but that’s the direction the culture surrounding the watch brand has gone, not to mention the departure from the more understated and utilitarian designs of the past. Now they are flashier and shinier and get you robbed. I bought a Rolex and I don’t want any more of them I am going with more niche ultra-luxury tier watches to avoid the hype and association with these types.

>>17206073
sissy tier

>>17205285
Send me one

>>17206001
Yeah just make sure it has the 25 Jewel movement in it. Just search the movement number they give you on the website and some movement databases will come up to tell you which one it is.
The cheaper 23j movement uses plastic parts

>>17204943
My watches are in the 300-2000 dollar range. The one I want now is the tissot visodate but I’m trying to find it for less than 650. Just buy what you like and what you can afford. My nicest watch is a breitling and that was a gift. There are some really cool tissot, Hamilton, seiko, and longines watches that range from 200-2000+. I’m so poor I’ve been looking at the visodate for a few months lol. I’m moving so it’s hard for me to justify buying it outright at full price. Soon though

>>17206087
>>My watches are in the 300-2000 dollar range.
lol retardedf poortard hahahhaha

>>17205867
Badass. I like the simpler dial. That’s the reason I want the tissot visodate. Simple silver dial on a black/brown leather croc band.

>>17206091
Get fucked pussy

>>17206087
Was at Jared's jewelry today and they had the tissot visodate for $450 but I know literally nothing about that brand so I didn't buy it

>>17205099
it looks too big for you, i do like it though--nice score

>>17206115
Unfortunately not, the only fluted bezel Tissot's have gold on them so even chrono24 is selling them at minimum 1300.

>>17206123
>put $200 of gold on a $600 watch
>triple the price

>>17206123
Oh yeah i think we talked about that before, bummer anon

>>17206130
somebody else but some issue

>>17206128
The funniest part is the full size stamped and signed certificate they include with the watch declaring it to be "authentic 14k gold"
Major prole goy vibes

>>17205309
This but unironically.

I'd wear a Vacheron but I can't because I can't possible explain to my boss why there's a Nazi iron cross on my watch.

>>17205770
>Vacheron and Piaget (which larp as Haute Horlogerie) get some of their movements from Cartier.
Richemont brands go around and around in circles with their movements.
They have ValFleurier which makes movements for any Richemont brand to use, but then a bunch of the brands make their own movements too. Piaget makes their own movements that go in the Altiplano but use a Cartier movement in their Polo. Cartier, in turn, uses Piaget movements in their own extra-thin models.

VC uses movements from everyone including themselves.

As far as I know, the only Richemon brands who truly are able to put their own movement in every watch they make are ALS and JLC. ALS doesn't share with anyone (probably because that would make it hard to put "Swiss made" on the dial). Lots of brands use JLC movements (and being a movement designer for other brands is historically one of JLC's businesses.)

>I can't because I can't possible explain to my boss why there's a Nazi iron cross on my watch.
Oh, that's easy. I'll help you.

>Vacheron Constantin uses a Maltese cross which dates back to the 11th century and has been used by numerous Christian orders throughout history. The "Nazi Iron Cross" is a cross pattée. It's been used by various German military services since the early 1800s through to the present day. It's a different design altogether but it's an easy mistake to make when you're looking at a logo that's barely 3mm tall.

>>17206143
>Why is there a Nazi iron cross on your watch?
>I'm a Nazi.

>>17206153

Thanks anon.

>>17206156
Fired for merely knowing something? That's great! Easy lawsuit. Put the place out of business.

>um sir please don't use your money on that
>it's a homage, no you don't pronounce it with an h
>and it's from a brand with no history or story, you won't have an emotional attachment to that watch

>>17206165
Any time somone responds to accusations of being a nazi with long historical anecdotes people view them as being very suspect. But feel free to prented that real life isint real because you don't want to accept it.

>>17206174
>NOOO sir do NOT buy that GUESS fashion watch
>Up your budget to $8000 and buy this random swiss watch you've never heard of!

>>17206182
You're missing the point. I don't know if you're in the in the US and maybe that's the source of the misunderstanding, but here we have something called a wrongful termination lawsuit.
This means a company can fire you for being bad at your job or stealing from the company, but they may not fire you for your beliefs or in retaliation. If they do, you can sue them.

Or they can just lie, give you a horrendous schedule and/or workload and fire you down the line for some other apparent reason. You know, like what 90% of employers do when they want to get rid of an employee. Good luck proving that it was because you're a Nazi in court, I'm sure that would go well.

>>17206197
Nah you are missing the point, not unexpected that you would but still obnoxious that you make proclamations about how the world works based on your ideal version of it and not reality.
Like thinking a company would fire you for being a nazi and not just start generating poor performance reports and staff complaints untill they have pretext to get rid of you. That's assuming you are even right that a company cant fire you based on your beliefs or speech witch seems doubtful. Or thinking that "rights" extend to people who are accused of having abhorrent beliefs.

>>17206214
>Or they can just lie

Can someone recognize this Orient?

>>17206220
It's a tri star, the orient equivalent of the seiko 5. Its a cheap watch, some of them are kind of cool but they arent worth anything, not even the cost to repair.

>>17206223
Thank you, I'm not interested on reselling or anything. It's just that the guy probably doesn't own a good camera or has parkinsons and I was trying to find better pictures of it.

>>17206217
I don't even know what you're talking about, but I'm pretty sure you have just never worked an actual job. It's extremely easy to get rid of an employee in America. If someone says they're a Buddhist, and I don't like Buddhists, I will give them a nonsensical schedule and make every effort to make their life harder, then give them a poor performance review so there is a papertrail and then terminate them. Corporate management does this every day and it is impossible to prove that they fired you for some other reason unless you literally say "I am going to fire you because you are a Buddhist."

>>17206215
Speaking as someone who actually has sued a former employer for wrongful termination, you're only describing situations where the person being illegally fired is also an idiot.

First rule, get everything in writing, all the time. If you follow that one rule, you cannot be caught out. Even if they want to accuse you of being a nazi, (which, by the way, is not illegal) they have to prove that your nazi beliefs created a hostile work environment.

>>17206229
As a lawyer specializing in wrongful termination lawsuits, you're wrong on all counts. I can't imagine how on earth I could ever prove that Nazi beliefs created a hostile work environment!

>>17206212
Can you link the federal statute that says political affiliation is protected from employer discrimination? That's a rhetorical question, it doesn't exist.

>>17206250
That's easy. If you're a nazi, simply claim you're being discriminated against for your Christian faith.

>>17206254
That goes to the point I was making earlier. The rules don't actually matter. It's just who can lie better and prove the other party is lying. This is why nearly all wrongful termination suits are settled out of course. The company will gladly give you a year's salary just to make you go away.

This is all academic for the purposes of this thread, though, because there are maybe 3 anons in this thread who aren't NEETs.

What happened to the faggot who makes threads 20 posts too early?
