/fa/ - Fashion

First for my new super deep Rolex, guys!!!!

>>17323325
Oh great, another watch no one on this board will ever buy or wear.

Welcolme to WAGIE FANTASY!

>>17323329
Slides easily under a dress cuff. But I'd only recommend it for wrists no smaller than 14 centimeters.

>>17323329
Big chungus!
What's the weight of this thing?

>>17323329
>50mm
>23mm thick
Very comfortable, I'm sure.

>>17323343
You can only walk in circles with that on.

>>17323329
rolexfags can never make fun of invicta again

>>17323334
Talk for yourself

>>17323329
is this the new black bay pro?

>>17323353
damn, ALS looks like THAT??

>>17323368
Looked like that. This was made at their very beginning, i think it was one of the 5 watches that were released at the opening or something like that. Another watch being released was the Lange 1 which of course got all the attention so this isn't well known and wasn't produced further on. I'm not sure, i'm speaking from memory, let me look it up.
It does look a bit unfinished, crude and disproportionate, they were still defining their style and they haven't mastered the finishing yet as well.

>What do you get from your Asian parents when you’ve made them proud? While most of us simply hope for some kind of acknowledgement, if you’re the son of a billionaire, you’ll apparently get a million-dollar watch.

>In the latest season of the hit Netflix reality series BLING, Kane Lim had big news to share. He was newly appointed as the face of Fenty, a beauty brand founded by singer Rihanna, and this achievement earned the approval of his dad, who surprised him with a Jacob & Co timepiece.

>The watch was revealed to be the Astronomia Art Phoenix by Jacob & Co. The American watch brand, founded in 1986 by diamond designer Jacob Arabo, is known to make some of the world’s most over-the-top and complicated watches. The Astronomia Art Phoenix is no exception.

>>17323383
i still like it though, better than the lange 1

How often do you guys take your automatics to be serviced? I'm looking at getting my first automatic and I've never had to have a watch serviced before. It's a Seiko so it's not super expensive. Is it worth doing it every 3 years like Seiko says to?

>>17323368
>>17323383
>>17323388

>>17323387
>be rich
>get $1 million dollar watch gifted to you by parents

>>17323388
Did you know about this one? It's a bit big but otherwise i think it's nice.

>>17323387
that's cray cray but i dont really care

>>17323329
Wow Tim Masso, you're so right, fits well on my 6 inch wrist and slides right underneath the cuff!!!

>>17323389
it depends on where you live and the watchmakers you have, they charge different prices

for cheap mechanicals most of the time the cost of a servicing is already as expensive as the watch, or even more.

>every 3 years
lmao.. It can go 10, 15 years even, no problem. Workhorse movements are made for the average normie and they can take a lot of 'not caring'. No one is seriously servicing a seiko 5 or whatever every 3 years. Do it if when it breaks or starts to become sluggish...if it has sentimental value to you.

>stock market dying
>rolex market dying
good fucking riddance fuck speculative tards

What’s your go to watch from your collection that you put on when you’re trying to get pussy?

>>17323410
>Do it if when it breaks or starts to become sluggish.
This.

>>17323412
Does this mean I can walk into a store an easily pick out a Rolex now?

>>17323421
Probably not but the Rolex Grey Market "premium" will be a lot lower.

Bought something used online for a very good price. Not saying what it is until it's arrived and I can see that it is how it should be

>>17323325
Was wondering if y’all had any ideas on what I should do before I just pass it off to a jeweler to fix
>gf gets me picrel
>normal new watch shit, almost quartzlike accuracy for the first few weeks then normal automatic watch timekeeping thereafter
>go out to bar
>distinctly remember checking my watch and the time being correct at like 7:30pm
>next morning it’s doing a minute in 40 seconds
>I never bumped it or anything
I imagine it’s something pretty obvious for it to be that drastic a change in such a short time frame, right? Any ideas?

>>17323462
Forgot to add I am a gay retard and lost the box and warranty card

>>17323463
>>17323462
My jewelry store charges $5 for stuff like this. It takes like 15 minutes and they usually get the movement back and in order. There's no harm in asking and since it's a Seiko they're easily fixed by any novice watchamaker.

Perfection

>>17323462
Maybe you got it magnetized.

>>17323478
Yes. Also this.

Thoughts on Zenith?

>>17323478
Can we all appreciate how each hand fucks at least one set of markers beautifully and how some casio tinydick hoverhand shitter can't penetrate?

>>17323501
kek

>>17323501
>can't penetrate
My sides

>>17323501
Casio primarily makes markets for the Japanese market. Naturally, their customers will find full-length hands intimidating.

>>17323501
the casio is kinda silly but you are also comparing a $30 watch from a company with like 5000 SKUs to a $20,000? one from a HH watchmaker with a tight curated selection

>>17323462
Find the Seiko dealer in your city or the one closest to you. This is a good starting point to solve your problem.

https://youtu.be/IMMwkEK8wjI?t=603]

LMFAO the $70 one has a better looking backlight than the $300 one, what the fuck.

And then the $500 and above have a good looking one again. So you're basically screwed if you want a normal priced one for some reason.

>>17323462
magnetization.
Buy a cheap demagnetizer from aliexpress and do it yourself rather than paying some absolute retard who doesn't know what they are doing. Jewelers are just watch sellers, they don't understand shit to watches.

>>17323513
Tbh casio does it with their more expensive watches too. It's why I'd prob get pic related over an anus even tho the anus is better in a lot of ways. But it has baby dorfus hands

>>17323520
the longines has really good polishing for the cost

>>17323510

>>17323500
I like penith

>>17323517
He is showing an older version of the $70 model the newer one has the same backlight as the $300 one
Also currently the $70 model is going for $130 and the $300 model is going for $200 + shipping from japan.

>>17323462
Keep checking the accuracy for a few days and see how off it really is.

>>17323537

I prefer the Arkade with it's rouonded top and bottom, it's more unique. I hope a cheaper brand makes an homage of it.

>>17323616
>Rolex and Omega
not even in the same league. Vacheron is HH, Rolex and Omega arent.

PRX Powermatic vs Citizen NB1050?

>>17323633
I'd go for the Citizen, it looks better and it's a bit cheaper too.

>>17323633
say no to Sw*tch
go get that office Citizen

>>17323633
>Citizen NB1050
This, its a fantastic watch for the current prices. It's a really nice looking sports watch that doesn't feel overly derivative, nice finishing, nice details, just overall a really great looking watch.
If you get the prx get the quartz, the auto is too thick, preferably get the 35mm version since it looks much better on wrist and really has that vintage integrated bracelet sports watch feel to it.

>>17323559
the date window actually balances beautifully with the 9 oclock indices, at least for a date window

>>17323544
>He is showing an older version of the $70 model the newer one has the same backlight as the $300 one
Ok so they made it worse, and you have to buy the $500 one lmfaoooooooooooooo how is that better.

>>17323387
i literally don't care

Wouldn't pay $5 for this fucking shit.

>Jacob & Co
The moment you step outside the boutique the value drops by 80%

>>17323662
People who buy $20k+ watches don't give two shits about "resale" value.

"Resale" is such poorfag cope lmao.

Can anyone help me ID this watch?
Thinking an old Zenith or Eterna

>>17323664
>Be richfag
>Watch is being sold for 80% less in the used market
>No no no, I'm rich, I will get it brand new.

I take it you also think they have a pool filled with money instead of water like in the cartoons huh chump?

>>17323669

Everyone in the world has heard of Rolex.

No one on the street has heard of "Vacheron Consta... what?"

>>17323696
Holy poorfag cope.

>>17323696
everyone in the world has heard of casio too.

whats your point?

well known = better?

>>17323702
Retarded frenchie thinks people buying constantins are trying to impress poors who know about Rolex because of lil'wayne. LMAO

>>17323696
I know you spent your life savings on an ugly used Rolex Explorer from 2002, and it's the only Rolex in the entirety of your poor village but... you're retarded.

>>17323696
Now this is cope.

Picked up this little shitter. Size is great, case finishing is surprisingly well done.
Great base as a mod if you want a smaller 300.
Date window is ass, so either get a black disc or change the dial.
Feels and looks great but the sandwich dial is muted somewhat? like it's been dulled. bracelet is absolutely average.
Not bad from those kids in factories. Thanks for reading my blog

>>17323762

I kinda like it actually

You could steal my collection tomorrow. I'd feel fine. I'd take my check and replace it within a week.

>>17323927
Did they make it out of aluminum foil and plastic? Why does it look so shitty, is it fake? The hands look like they've been cut out with a hand saw.

6 is ideal
3 is fine if done right

Pointer date is an alternative.
I am personally very fond my Weekdater and its combination of the date at 3 and a full length day at six that blends well with the text on the dial. >>17323362

Your local patek boutique.

>>17324080
ChazingTime is one I've seen mentioned a lot. Their Rolex reps are really good, so I imagine the Pateks are too.

Should I buy this $.10 plastic watch for 40 bucks?

>>17324130
It is made of metal though, not plastic.

>>17324136
subtitle aso says it's genuine but the reviews say it's a replica....

>>17324129
One might argue that this is not a 'proper' date at 9 because the crown is on the left as well.

>>17324136
That's an A168.
The case is resin with a metallic applied finish.
The only metal on it is the bracelet, the case back and the screws.
Having a resin case is why it only weighs like 50 grams or whatever it is.

>>17324130
Only buy one through a reputable dealer.
$39 is way too low for the genuine article.
They go for $44-60 on Amazon and a bit more at a brick and mortar.
Don't get a copy.
If you're going to get one, get the real deal.
I'm kinda liking the A1000.
Instead of a resin case, it's full steel.
Very cool.

At least it has what looks like a custom module slapped on it

>>17324222
Anyway the one you posted is cool looking, really standout in their line of products. Im not just posting negative stuff to be an asshole, but some of the other watches they make are pretty weird, i guess i would call it genta esqe.

Anyone ordered from ChazingTime before? Their site sounds a little weird with that talk about watches being seized by customs.

This is nice

>>17324232
Whoops didn't mean to quote with that post
Anyway reddit r/reptime look at the repforums that are online, find vendor reviews, learn how to order a fake watch correctly (ask for detailed pictures of the specific watch they will sell you and scrutinize them carefully)
You need to put in a little footwork to make sure everything goes smoothly.

>>17323518
>Jewelers are just watch sellers, they don't understand shit to watches.
This. A Seiko AD is usually a Jew seeling jewellery.

>>17323570
Good choice for getting one without a date window.

>>17324230
Gerald really made some weird shit

>>17324256
This fucker is 46mm btw

>>17324078
Have tested it myself and this trick works really well with Seiko movements.

>>17324261
I always leave my Seiko 5 on it's back and I'm gaining a lot of time. After I regulate it, how should I be putting it down? Is it alright with the dial facing forward and the crown at a 90 degree angle from a flat surface?

I megaloathe you all.

This is my first time looking to buy a watch, don't know jack shit about them and didn't see any ones I liked in the pastebins. Watchbros work your magic

> Budget: Sub 500, stretch is 600-800
> Type: Adventurer watch (? not really sure what the difference between watch types is other than divers going really deep; I go outside and hike often in unmarked areas)
> Movement: Any that is durable and accurate enough.
> Features: Not sure what sort of features watches can come with, but I would like add-ons that would be useful for the aforementioned hiking in unmarked areas. I definitely want more features than just the time.
> Strap: Bracelet or leather strap
> Watch size: Don't want the watch to be super slim or small. My wrist is rather slim.

Was thinking a silver watch with black face, band either silver or black as well. Definitely willing to check out other colors, I'm typically wearing black clothes though.

>>17324289
There are watches that cater to adventuring, but that's more about design and history of the watches rather than actual functionality. There's no watch that's specifically made for hiking in unmarked areas, these aren't smart watches. Get a Garmin watch with GPS and downloadable offline maps for actual function.

Seiko Alpinist and Fieldmaster watches have compass bezels that make it more convenient to use your watch hour hand and the sun to help you find north. But you can do this with any analog watch, with or without a bezel. Of course, this is moot because I know you are not using a compass on your hiking trips. If you were using a map and compass, you'd be using a dedicated compass with adjustable declination anyways.

Okay, there is the Casio Protrek that has altimeter, barometer, thermometer, and digital compass with adjustable declination. That's probably the best you'll get from a functionality standpoint.

>>17324315
What a fucking monkey
Spinning a little knob is too hard for you?

This fucker got three barrels of manual winding action. And the second hand snaps and stays at zero during time setting. I love this thing bros..

>>17324349
It's inconvenient. Automatic is obviously superior.
Also the watch in question is 11,6mm thick (with a 30m water resistance) so GS really has no excuse.

>>17323325
Hands are too fat

>>17324274
I'm my experience dial up gains time and crown up losses a few seconds. You should do a few test yourself to see witch position works best for you. There are a few aps that help with tracking your watch.

>>17324130
>>17324187
did someone say A1000? I have a bunch of those resin case casios, just forget it and shoot for the a1000

Has someone ever made a double retrograde time-only watch?

>>17324417
I like it but can you switch the bracelet out for the other one? I don't like the chainmail look the new one has.

>>17324437
yeah, it takes 18mm straps. my photo has an aftermarket 18mm black perlon from clockwork

>>17324359
the worst is imo Cartier with non-wr quartz watches at a luxury price, but alas I am a poorfag and that amount of money actually means something to me

>>17324130
go for it. i’ve worn mine near daily for 2 years now in every situation from swimming in the ocean to working construction. only now is it too scratched and gouged to look good.

>>17324356
Do you own it? I've always had a soft spot for Panerai even after all their scandals and dubious releases. I visit their local boutique and nearly buy a Radiomir every couple years but haven't seen one I have to have just yet. The smart money is to go used but the reps are everywhere and I'm paranoid about getting scammed on it.

Anime

Good morning sirs, should a shirt like this be tucked in? Might look a little big on me, have the left arm rolled up a tad to show my watch for obvious reasons. Have not washed this shirt so it may shrink to correct size.

>>17324501
>>17324512
That's it. I'm leaving watch threads.
Too many niggers, literal retards and poorfags.

>>17324417
I technically have the money for a Rolex, but can't justify it at all.
Too bad.
I'm really liking these A1000's because they're just the right level of ridiculous.
It's clearly trying to be a dress watch and yet it's still kinda goofy.
All that effort into the case and you still basically have an F91W in function.
I only wish they'd used the bigger CR2016 battery for longer life between battery changes.
If you're still in the thread:
I have a gold screen F91W and the drop off of viewing angles makes it unreadable unless it's perfectly angled to my eyes.
It always seems to catch and cast weird shadows.
None of my standard screens have this issue; only the gold one.
Does your gold A1000 have that issue?
I love the gold, it's just that I detest the viewing angles of the gold screen I have.
(Funny since it's been the one I've worn the most over the last year.)
I've wanted an A1000 since they came out.
The prices have dropped and I happen to have a spare $100 lying around.
I'm probably just going to get the standard grey screen as it's always the most legible.

Such is life.
I'm okay with it, though.
When I'm able to get one I will.
If you're still in the thread, I'd like to ask:
I'm not generally into kitschy or flashy watches.
(yeah, I'm buying an A1000, but that's excusable)
One of the reasons I like the Explorer is because it's so muted.
It seems like the kind of watch that goes largely unnoticed.
Does anyone ever comment on it IRL?

GS movements are thick as fuck so taking out the auto works is the only way to make them fit in a thin case.

>>17323325
Let me guess, you NEED more?

>>17324659
But if he doesn't shill then no one else will care about his huge collection of anuses and he'll have to confront the fact that he wasted his money (and life.)

>>17324672
That's not me retard.
I don't wanna see a single one of you fags owning the same watches as me.

Bros how can I justify paying 500 for an automatic watch that is worse than a 20$ Casio in every objective way?
I really want it but I am having sleepless nights over this please help

>>17324674
>t. wasted his life.

>>17324670
i'd rather guess time by burning my eyes looking at the sun than wear this cuck shit

>>17324675
Do you like jewellery?

>>17324682
No I actually don't care anout jewelery at all

>>17324687
Then
>paying 500 for an automatic watch
is not for you

>>17324433
Anyone?

>>17324433
Yes

>>17324675
You buy a $50000 real watch

$500 automatics are cuck "enthusiast" territory, where people want to say they're into watches but they're really poor so they spend what feels like a lot to them but everyone thinks it's garbage besides other cucks in that cuckzone.

Honestly just stick to casio and cereal box watches until you have real money

>>17324519
I'd love to see a Casio like this but without those little bumpers and the finishing a tier or two higher. Make it sleek and elegant, maybe clean and improve the screen and it'd be so nice.

>>17324708
And add a proper, quality bracelet.

>>17324706
By that logic even most watch repair shops aren't "real enthusiasts

>>17324704
So who did it?

>>17324716
Your mum

>>17324706
Oh no my precious ancient technology is now affordable, gotta gatekeep it and call others cuck enthusiasts to make myself feel good
Cope
seiko 5:
Tells time, reasonably accurate, looks beautiful, lost it or broke? No problem, can get snother one
50k watch:
Tells time, reasonably accurate, beautiful, lost it or broke it? That's another 50k
My seiko 5> your pretentious overpriced patek philippe

>>17324679
In what way exactly?

Pic related finally shipped

>>17324433
Closer I can think.

>>17324433
Other option...

>>17324731
Nope, you missed it.

If you can't afford a decent watch, then get an affordable casio. As it's a better watch, and super cheap.

casio:
tells time great, super durable, looks good. Lost it or broke? Skip 1 burrito
seiko 5:
garbage, tells time with novelty-level accuracy while needing to be constantly reset, breaks easily, still costs so much you'd hate to hammer it

See how you leap to the seiko 5? It's because you NEED to have something to spend enough on your balls hurt. You can't settle with a fun $10-$30 watch because that doesn't squeeze your nuts enough

>>17324675
You don't. You just buy the Casio and move on with your life. Literally nothing different will happen that matters.

>>17324315
sometimes people want the most uncomplicated watch design. three hands only, no dates, no automatic rotor, no lume, no numbers. just pure unadultered watch. that aesthetic appeals to some people

>>17324762
>>17324765
Look at my pic. I was thinking about splitting the dial in half and every half would have each own set of two hands, hour and minute, and would travel from one end to another on one half and then jump back and the hand on the other half of the dial would continue.

>>17324777
So for half of the hour (from 45 to 15 minute marker) the top minute hand would be moving and for the other half (from 15 to 45) the bottom minute had would be moving. Maybe you could design a hiding place for the hands that aren't in use so they're hidden from view when not in use.

>>17324550
>fat ass hands
Why are french people like this

Thoughts? Could be a fun thing to have around. It's hard to find purple dials.

>>17324781
i like it, the purple oyster is my favorite watch

>>17324519
I already own some nice watches, i bought a omega seamaster 5 years ago for my birthday, it was supposed to be my forever watch but i hate how inaccurate it is. still have it, stilling in a box in the closet.

Mine doesn't have a gold screen, it's the standard screen, they make something like 8 variants of the a1000 now, one of them may have the gold screen but mine doesn't.

that having been said here's a pic with an extreme angle.

>>17324766
It looks good, doesn't break that easily unless you're treating it as a sword.
Also, by tat logic, does that mean pieces with great metal finishing, sapphire crystal and chronometer accuracy for 500 make you a sheep for buying one with the same usabilty for 100 times the price?

going to buy a zenith

>>17324731
Archie is right
It's gotta hurt. If its not expensive enough to deter normies, or so rare that its impossible to replace, the watch just isn't special.

>>17324798
That's true, but I don't get what does that have to do with being a "cuck enthusiast".
Also a lot of the money you pay is being paid for that "special" status. That also applies to any noname brand founded yesterday that makes a 50k watch. So it really has nothing to do with how much of an enthusiast you are

>>17324670

>>17324798
>Archie is right
>It's gotta hurt. If its not expensive enough to deter normies, or so rare that its impossible to replace, the watch just isn't special.
Considering his whole collection just got boosted, he's going to get firsthand experience trying to replace it.

>>17324766
what if i want a mechical? i accept its drawbacks

what if i just dont like the way casio watches look?

what if i don't want to fill a box with only casios?

>>17324731
Holy cope, Batman!!!

>>17324817
That's horrible.

What is an /fa/ smartwatch for an Android phone? I have a standard watch I really like, but I would like a smartwatch for some smart features to use as well. Needs to be somewhat durable, great looking and easy to read screen.
Not sure about budget, what would you recommend?

>>17324798
>Archie is right
>It's gotta hurt.
That didn't age well for him, did it?

I'm waiting for the call from my Rolex AD

Anybody got any good recs where to buy a seiko quartz tuna? I want to take advantage of low yen but the chrono 24 prices seem higher than they were

>>17324817
Sort of, but with two dials, four hands and retrograde.

>>17324866
the only "smartwatch" that has interested me has been those Fossil hybrid watches with e-ink screens. the face customizations seem way cooler. looks at these https://shenjiwatches.blogspot.com

New Archie lore? What happened?

>>17324891
he got all his watches stolen lol

>>17324891
He announced a big trip to the USA and was burgalarized while he was gone.

It’s a perfect alibi in case he’s In on it though so I’m not really sure. Very sad either way, yet not unexpected at all

>>17324895
>very sad
>he even said his dad called him a retard for putting all of his money into watches and a bmw
not sad at all. dude is a poor

>>17324771
it certainly appeals to me and I'd go for two hands only even.

Shill be watch / brand that is under 10k. I want something with class and can be worn casually. I know I don’t like grand seiko, not sure I like omega either (mixed feelings).

>>17324917
Rolex

>>17324904
It’s sad even if you are an Archie hater. There’s nothing to hate on anymore now. He’s not even a watch YouTuber anymore

>>17324840
The only reason why you want a shitty mechanical instead of an affordable quartz or a decent mechanical is because you're a poorfag who wants their nuts pinched when they buy it to feel like a "real hobbyist". You can afford a good mechanical and a basic quartz doesn't squeeze your nuts price-wise so you need a shitty mechanical

>>17324917
Rolex milgauss or datejust

Stuff like the marine masters might not be discounted the way other Japanese watches are right now. Also the real 1000m versions have always retailed for two or three thousand, That said sakuramart looks okay

Oh wow I really like the milgauss. I’m actually into EMF “tinfoil hat” stuff so that kinda fits. Although looks like it comes in 40mm was hoping to get a little smaller.

Any idea how difficult it is to get this model?

>>17324958
>rolex millhouse

should i get a 42mm pelagos?

>>17324960
yea

>>17324959
This guy? I’m kind of a nerd so I’ll embrace that

>>17324949
It's not even that impressive. It's an inch thick! Of course it will have a ridiculous depth rating. If they made it the size of the normal Sea-Dweller, then 10,000m WR would be impressive.

>>17324949

ok so you buy a 20$ shirt instead of a 5$ shirt that does the same job is because you're a wannabe who wants to imitate people who buy overpiced designer clothes.
do you even realize how fucking dumb you sound
if you like the way a 100 or a 500 watch looks then buy it lmao what's the big deal

Too many niggers in the thread. Needs to die

>>17325054
That watch, along with timex expeditions, are peak 90s dadcore. Very nice

>>17325054
Yeah, that's a poor nigs watch

niggers stay mad the explorer I mogs your redditmaster

>>17325071
They're both reddit watches, so who cares?

>>17324989
I linked a couple of those in my post, cheapest one was $800 something, Not sure if it was used i didn't look too hard. The other cheapest one was $1,100 or $,1,200 new i think, i didn't really check yahoo auctions but used watches from japan are usually super nice so that should be a good option

Opinions on this? It has a certain je ne sais quoi.

R8 my watch (go phils)

>>17325104
cool watch (boo phils)

Got this a few days ago

>>17325143
Whats up sharur? When is your collab dropping?

>>17324766
This theory about a giant hole in the spectrum of good watches between $50 and $5k is incredibly stupid. I have $300 watches that I love and wear daily, and are about 10 times better than a $30 dollar casio (which I also have and wear).
Are there relatively more shitty watches in the midrange price bracket? Probably, but there are still plenty of excelent watches worth their pricetag.

Why do niggers like peacocking so much?

>>17325181
Nooooo you got it wrong
If you don't pay a house worth of money for a watch then you aren't a real enthusiast

>>17325181
>have $300 watches that I love and wear daily

This, from his videos/livestreams you can figure out that he keeps his watches with him and he did multiple tours of his "studio", which is a very insecure backyard shed. Also I wouldn't be surprised at all if he unknowingly shown his safe in one of his videos.
Someone put the two and two together and took them. Not very professionals because they did a giant mess but anyone is able to do it while the owner is literally on the other side of the planet.
