For a one watch collection, would you pick the Rolex Explorer or the Submariner No Date? I am torn between these two.

>>17320928
explorer is the best rolex tool watch by a country mile, dive watches are ugly

man jewelry

Happy Halloween

>>17320930
The explorer looks good. Something you can dress up and down at will.
Also much cheaper to get.
But I'd rec the Datejust with smooth bezel and oyster.
A rolex needs a cyclops.

Reverso

1939 Hamilton Endicott. Great Grandfather's. Sneed.

>>17320968
I have a German pocket watch from a forefather. It’s worth 10K. I am not sure what brand it is.

Cope if you must and you will

>>17320971
That's neat. The Hamilton is gold filled but all together working only probably 500ish bucks. I have the gold bracelet as well it just doesn't work as good for every day use like the leather.

>>17320974
Rolex should be ultra luxury.

Vintage Hamiltons are cool even if they're not the most valuable watches. I've always wanted to buy one, but I feel like keeping up with servicing it would be too much.

If I wanted an every day and everywhere watch, the Oyster.

Hi Gentleman (and ladies)

I'm an upper middle income earner.
Thinking about something like this for day to day wear at a mostly office job.
Thoughts?
Alternatives?

Max Budget USD $1500.00
I actually can afford more but I'm way to rough on a day to day wear watch to justiy it.

>>17321120
>upper middle

>$1500.00

>>17321127
You didn't even read my comment.
I DONT WANT to spend more.

Fuckwit.

>>17321120
What job? I wouldn't mind something comfy in an office.

>>17321130
Cope, poorfag.
Can't afford a Rolex? lmao

>>17321133
Multi facitated management and technical specialisation.

Shit I could go out buy a Rolex with cash but knowing me I'd probably break it or get bored of it in 6 months.

>>17321135
That's a hell of a title. What field? IT?

Thanks for the one decent answer.

It's all so tiresome.

>>17321163
>>17321168
>>17321130

>>17321095
Your grandfather probably wore a watch similar to this, in your logic you descend from a line of faggots

So Rolex just raised the price on all of their watches. 4-5% raise on average.
>Explorer is now 7050€
>Submariner Date is now 10000€

at best a rolex shows you're not dead broke
but since no one can tell whether it's real it doesn't even do that

You're boring

50mm dia. x 23mm thick.
26k USD

I don't see a wait list forming for this one unless they don't make more than 100 of them per year.

>>17321321
That one will most likely be used for commercial divers that truly need a dive watch, I don't foresee a regular person using one.

>>17321326
>That one will most likely be used for commercial divers that truly need a dive watch, I don't foresee a regular person using one.

No, these will definitely only be worn by fat wealthy Arabs. The same guys who wore 47mm Panerais 15 years ago.

>>17321321
>All that advertising on the dial.
Overall it's ugly, but I do like that Omega kept the dial text to a minimum on the Seamaster 300.

Once Rolex is available. What brand are we moving on to for exclusivity?

>>17321380
Patek. That's always the safe bet.

Tudor won.

What's a decently nice watch that won't paint a target on my back for watch thieves? I was thinking maybe the BB58.

New Rolex

https://www.rolex.com/en-us/watches/sea-dweller/m126067-0001.html

What does /wt/ think of the latest addition to my interesting shitter collection? It's a Mondaine Chrono-Quartz powered by the notoriously fucking terrible and failure prone ESA Y2-900.231 movement that was used in the Heuer Chronosplit, Breitling Navitimer, and a bunch of other shit from the 80's. There are more broken examples of this movement floating around than good ones, and it's supposedly not uncommon to find brand new old stock movements dead on arrival from LCD death. Some dude in Aus who services them has manufactured his own upgraded drop in replacement module due to them being absolute pieces of shit to repair.

The movement keeps time and the chronograph functions do seem to mostly work on mine, the main issue I have with it is that pusher A (the one on the right) seems to be failing to make contact with the movement which I think is down to a little contact-plate missing on that side or something. I'm going to take a look at it some day when I'm feeling brave and retarded enough to attempt it as I have 0 experience working on this movement whatsoever and I am terrified of fucking it up because parts are unobtainium at this point and when they do come up for sale they are ludicrously expensive.

Thanks for reading my tl;dr blogpost.

I don't know anything about this brand but I like the way the watch looks. It's a Citizen Miyota Caliber 9039 movement. Is it worth the price?

ROLEX KEKS ON SUICIDE WATCH

AS IF YOU NEEDED ANY MORE PROOF THAT OMEGA IS THE SUPERIOR WATCH MAKER

IT'S OVER FOR ROLEXOIDS. OMEGA WON

>>17321485
The 9039 movement is pretty decent and the watch is priced unreasonably for that movement imo. Dont know anything else about the watch but it looks good
>>17321482
Kino

>>17321502
Rolex bros...not like this. I've spent the last several years shilling in this thread and fellating my AD. How could Rolex let this happen?

How autistic am I if I really like this watch

Someone help me ID this watch please

>>17321525
It's a seiko something

Rolexcucks are pathetic

>>17321127
I make 1% money and I've never bought a watch above $50.

>>17321267
why do you need 3 clocks

>>17321553

>>17321549
>He got jumped in line by a guy who spent 12 bucks on a bottle of olive oil
Sounds like sour grapes, anon.

>>17321554
That's only two clocks, anon.

>>17321216
Very nice. Very, very nice.

>>17321482
Cool looks and interesting. Your recollection of the caliber's fails made me feel uneasy, tho. Hope you have the best of luck with that misbevaving gremlin.

>>17321485
That's... quite affordable. I'd buy it.

>>17321332
I like it. I don't know if it's worth the money, though. It's like 1500 dollars more than a normal Seamaster.

>>17321326
There is no diver on the planet who needs an 11000m dive watch. 300m is approaching world record territory and the preparation and decompression involved makes it extremely dangerous and difficult.

Hate the Rolex waitlist

>>17321525
Seiko SRN039P2

I just dropped 46 bucks on a Snoopy watch from the Timex website, why am I feeling buyer's regret already

>>17321575
I mean it's cool and shit but why would someone spend +20k on a watch?
It's just jewelry for your wrist

>>17321645
>why would someone spend +20k on a watch?
To flex. Full stop.

>>17321642
I have a Rolex and I wear my Joe Cool Weekender quite often.

So uh, Rolex just beat Omega at the ultra deep dive watch thing, right?

You literally have no reason to buy an Omega now that Tudor has great movements.
And Grand Seiko is just more unique than Omega.

It's actually my fault. I convinced a couple of anons that if they posted anti-Omega memes that their Rolex AD would move them up the wait list.
Sorry. I didn't think that they'd actually believe me.

>>17321729
true, even the pagani design uses sapphire, there is really no excuse nowadays

>>17321724

>>17321751
who cares, maybe they also withstand the hottest temperature but all those records are really pointless

>>17321751
Didn't Rolex literally do exactly that but 10 years earlier? They just never made a production version of that watch until now.

>>17320923
>Guys? Guys? I can put this in my sink, right?

Not a big homage guy but damn that's a good deal

>>17321321
>Original Gas escape valve.
Lmao they made a sphincter

>>17321145
What are you fucking 10 years old?
Or are you just some dumb obese yank who's never heard of any brands unless your local mall sells it.

Get another 20 boosters you pleb. You give watch enthusiasts a bad name.

Muh rolex so special like the other 250,000 made per year...

>>17321231
This, I swear to god if anyone tells me only rolex are good unless im in public under a security camera I'm knocking them out. This rolex worship is a level of stupidity only rivaling 50 year old woman that "want kids someday".

>>17321380
There's more than 10,000 Rolex's on the grey market right now and 100,000s of fakes.

You couldn't pay me to pick up a rolex over a $2000 mark knowing that.

>>17321510
For function its pretty cool, I also own function watches as well as pretty watches.

>>17321549
Imagine being so desperate for a trinket that you pay tribute to a sales representative for a watch.
A watch that there are 1000s of.

>>17321575
Nice, an actual rarity.

>>17321600
I know our faggy Rolex worshipper will say otherwise but I was involved in diving. Nothing too deep however, this made me research the pressure rating on watches.
Turns out 100m is 100m OF PRESSURE. Not 100 literal m so it could be if you go down 80m you crack your watch.
300m Is literal submarine terratory.

>>17321732
Waiting for the explination as to how Rolex is better than Tudor.

>>17321741
Given that most Rolex owners are literal dense boomers, it would not suprise me.

>Imagine owning a RolAIDS

>New for this year.
>A rose-gold chronograph Overseas ultra-thin.

Why do brands make watches that literally only 2 people in the world will ever buy?

>>17321921
The same reason car companies make low-volume halo cars. It gets you talking about the brand and interested in buying SOMEthing from the brand, even if it isn't the top-of-the-line model.

Is this peak?

Rolex Oyster or Tudor Black Bay Pro?

>>17321931
Oyster. Easily.
The Pro has a GMT function you'll use a couple times per year. The Oyster will be a Rolex every day of the year.

Anyone have any experience with glycine? There’s a combat sub (gl0087) on a black rubber strap selling for 200 and I’m thinking about getting it as a beater for work. It’s brand new in box. Research says I should absolutely l get it but I’d like to hear if any of you have handled or owned one

>>17321945
I work in two different time zones if that matters.

>>17321592
yea why would I get that when I get get a 300m for less

>>17321921
>only 2 people
I bet waiting list are alredy forming to get this. The reality is that those watch brands make watches only for the one percent.

>>17321120
I’d go with the visodate before that one. Or a Hamilton

>>17321140
Lol this is painfully accurate

>>17321553

It's the worst of both worlds

It's always hilarious to see people (trying to) shit on Rolex in these threads.
I mean, Rolex is dabbing on the whole watch industry to a point it's not even funny anymore. They came up with a shit ton of essential innovations, have the most iconic designs, the most accurate movements, produce over a millions watches a year and are one of the most recognizable brand on earth (on a rather irrelevant market, ie luxury mechanical watches). Rolex is also praised by the best watchmakers in the world (Philippe Dufour, Roger Smith...) and the most reknown collectors.
On top on that, the demand is so high that they sell for a higher price on the grey market, and stores that carry them can't even put them on display. Just read the comments on the Rolex Instagram page, you'll see hundreds of grown men boiling with rage because they couldn't get a Submariner from their AD.

Truth is, if you're shitting on Rolex, chances are you're just seething and coping. And even if you're not, well... what's even the point?

>>17321120
Lmao get a Casio for $10-50 until you have real money.

"$1500 budget" means you're a poorfag

>>17322007
i wear a rolex and don't have time to read mucho texto paragraphs

>>17321976
Basically it's a threat to all mechanical watches to the point it would disrupt all the bullshit mechanical watch people circle jerk over, so they sour grapes it.

>>17322039
There are some great pieces out there.

>>17322039

And Rolex will always be cope for people who can't get a Patek/Vacheron/AP.

>>17322053
>Omega has and always will be cope for people who can't afford a Rolex.
It wasn't that way in the 60s, hence why he said vintage instead of modern.

>>17322057
>It wasn't that way in the 60s,
Yes it was. Believing otherwise is also cope. The last time Omega was was better was the day before Rolex was founded.

>>17322039
Many of their vintage models look much better than their modern line. Constellation is a great case in point.

About what? You'd have to pay me to wear that thing

I’m traveling to Paris next week and I want to buy myself a nice classic and versatile watch. Was thinking about testing my luck getting a Rolex sub or OP but maybe Cartier santos might fit me more? I heard rolex is really gay recently and Cartier is still well known and respected while not being as popular as Rolex.

Want to spend under 10k but can go over if it’s worth it

Anyone got any tips on 34mm, no day no date, hand wind, three handers?

Are watches just handbags for men?

>>17322446
More like ear rings I suppose, since they're considered jewelry.

>>17322447
Handbags you can tell the brand, they are a status item, can be difficult to get certain models. Same as watches. Jewelry like earrings or anything else is less brand centric overall

>>17322452
Watches aren't all about brand, most people will be unable to tell from a distance. The handbag world is much more normie than the watch world too, just about every woman is autistic about handbags but not as many men are about watches.

>>17322183
Do you know how stupid that statement is? Even if you are a commercial saturation diver, the odds of you needing anything beyond a Submariner is vanishingly thin. As in there are probably less than a hundred people on the planet who need it. Who needs this new monstrosity? Literally no one. It’s a complete meme that will be fitted on the outside of a submarine arm, just like the last Deepsea Challenge.

>>17322447
Yeah, but handbags are a good analog because they’re useful tools in addition to good-looking accessories.

>>17320930
For me, I would choose the Explorer. It makes me want to cum so bad

>>17322454
Well handbags aren’t all about brand either. Most of them you would have no idea what they are unless you know handbags. They are less technical in their design but craftsmanship is a thing. Also most women don’t know or care about bags besides maybe having one or two bags that are designer or whatever. But not many women have Hermes bags

>>17322183
The normal SeaDweller already exists retard and it’s also pointless overkill for every single diving application that currently exists. If you’re at a depth where a Submariner fails on you, well you’re probably going to die within the next minute anyway.

Yeah, NATO straps often have excess like that. You can fold it back and tuck it into the holder.

Traditionally they’re made of thin and flexible nylon so it’s easy to fold them over. Maybe it won’t be as easy with leather.

>>17322647
holy fucking reddit

>>17322651
>you like a mainstream thing? LE REDDITTTT

>>17322652
the datejust and explorer are mainstream but they aren’t reddit. the submariner and speedmaster are. go figure.

>>17322654
Explorer isn't but the DateJust definitely is.

>>17322655
the datejust is reddit in the same way that breathing air is reddit

>>17322658
So very then.

>>17322379
what watch is this? looks nice

>>17322673
Helson Sharkmaster 300, 12 dial, no date

>>17321921
The chrono looks a bit off, the dial isn't as neat as with the other models. I'd rather buy picrel.

>>17321929
Peak fat, yeah.
These uber-divers are the most pointless and impractical watches ever, nobody is ever going to dive that deep and yet companies still go out of their way to one up each other.

>>17321976
You must understand that people aren't being rational here. There is a lot of pride involved with simping for your favorite brand, and GS as an outsider isn't exactly favorite with many people. It's all about flexing and coping here.

>>17322007
It's hilarious to see you simping for a watch brand.

>>17322197
The hands look like an afterthought, and the whole watch just doesn't look 'premium'.

>>17322326
The two crowns on the left and right?

>>17321510
I like this one too just cause it's hard to find metal cased digitals anymore. It's mostly chromed metal shit nowadays.

Get yourself a JLC.

Vintage Seiko.

>>17322379
Shartmaster?

>>17322388
I guess he was put into his place.

>>17322745
>Get yourself a JLC.
The problem is that, while JLC makes interesting movements, they don't actually make interesting watches, particularly if you're not interested in dress watches.

Got a new teju lizard strap for my 70's oyster perpetual date, really happy with it in all honesty. I've wanted a genuine lizard strap forever but I'm a cheapskate so I've been waiting for a cheap one to come up and it finally did for £13 in an eBay listing with some other strap, so it ended up being £6.50 in the end. What do you /wt/ bros think? I usually have it on a bracelet but figured this could be a nice change.

>>17322366
I know you're probably not stupid enough to wear your expensive purchase while you're still in Paris, but I'm going to say this anyway: Do not wear an expensive watch in Paris, you WILL get robbed.

>>17322857
I don't like putting a cheap strap on a nice watch (and it is a nice watch, I'll give you that). That strap looks plasticky. I'd put it back on the bracelet until you have the funds to buy a nice strap.

>>17322857
I don't like shiny straps that much, but this doesn't look bad at all.

Old ass picture of my Tudor to bump the thread.
>>17322874
Whether you spend 50 or 300, lizard straps always look kinda cheap and nasty if they have a shiny finish, it kinda just comes with the territory. It's an aesthetic choice and not a matter of the strap being cheap or poorly made. I expected it to be complete dogshit, but it's actually pretty nice quality in all honesty lol.

I'm just happy to finally have found a genuine teju strap for so little money after literally years of keeping my eyes peeled for one.
>>17322875
Me neither usually, but I think the fact that my watch dial is also a shiny black really ties it together for some reason. It's definitely not everyones taste, though. Shiny straps are super tacky, but I think it's pretty period appropriate for the watch and I dig it.

>explorer
>not reddit
lol

>r-reddit
reddit

Vacheron>All

Joke all you want, but the most reddit watch is the Speedmaster, there is no denying this.

>>17322990
Explorer and Sped mastard are the most reddit to ever reddit. Explorer is just a poorfag version of a brand new Oyster (used explorers are $2000 below retail)

None of the Trinity are worth fuck anymore.

Patek is run by merchants.
AP is a one-model brand (and that model is too popular among Basketball-Americans).
Vacheron is owned by Richemont.

>>17322992

>>17322646

Honorable mentions go to Seamaster

>using hyper inflated AD prices to elevate the status of an entry level rolex"
Blow your head off with the biggest gun you can possibly find you mouth breathing trog.

>>17322997
If you ever want to know what watch anon wants to buy, just ask him which watch is not reddit.

This is the cancer that killed these threads.

>>17323000
>hyper inflated AD prices
Gray market is the inflated price, anon.
>>17322997
Sorry to say but the average explorer tard looks like this >>17322958

>spedmasters seething so much over how their reddit piece of shit sucks ass compared to the based explorer
lol i get that its a cope but come on, stop being so pathetic, you can sell the speedmaster and put it towards the explorer if you really want.

>>17323014
Speedmaster and Explorer are both Reddit. Couldn't catch me dead wearing those minimalist pieces of junk.

All mechanical watches are reddit, I guess g-shocks too

this entire hobby is reddit
you are wearing the mans equivalent to purses
kys cucks

Explorer is for fags who larp as outdoorsmen despite sitting at their STEMlord desk job all day. Moonwatch is for tards who pretend they are Buzz Lightyear despite being an HVAC tradie

Actually accurate. I wear and like the Explorer and I'm a python engineer kek

Muslim shithole

>>17323047
Something understated and relatively cheap.

>Is Paris a shithole or something? I thought it was a fashion place
Oh my sweet summer child.

>>17323162

Are there certain areas that are nice? Places to avoid?

Would you rather have the cheapest casio oceanus or the cheapest super titanium citizens?

>>17323182
>Oh my sweet summer child.
Go back.

>>17323187
If you're considering buying any Japanese watch, just save your money and buy a basic G-Shock.

>>17323184
>Places to avoid?
Yes, France

Archie's collection got stolen.
It was his entire savings tied up in the collection.
I would have posted earlier but the paramedics had to revive me after I died of laughter.

>>17323047
Casio MQ24

>>17323047
I have thought about this a lot myself. Probably a watch that you actually hate the look of, but which will work ok.

>>17323229
Pic of the collection?

>>17323278
Pic not found, man. The collection's gone.

Here's a list of what was stolen (or set aside for insurance scam purposes)

Are you the guy who said he was gonna buy a watch nobody talked about here and was proud of it?

>>17323282
Except the Speedy, the grand date JLC, annual calendar and world time PPs, nothing valuable was lost. Less than 80k loss. Kek
