*enters thread and mogs 95% of all watches posted*

>>17383583
Why the doubled numerals? And then they flip the ones on the bezel but not the ones on the dial. I'm not a big fan of design for design's sake.

Boring grandpa watch, but nice

>>17383620
Looks good. Classic JLC style. Though I never dress to where a watch like that would go with my outfit.

How much did Omega charge you for your last service?

>>17383726
Not sure what the price is on that JLC, but I'm guessing around 40k at least.

literally who? meanwhile fucking michael jordan wears a 222. the niggerer watch seems obvious

What's a good Swiss tonneau watch from an obscure brand for around $1-2k?

Just went to the Rolex store and the only thing they had in stock was a lady datejust 28 in silver and rose gold for 8.8k OTD price. They said they aren’t even doing waitlist for other men’s watches.

Is the lady watch any good, should I get for the wife?

i was just clicking around other boards and found this general. i had no idea there was a watch general, and on /fa/ggot of all places.

i've been wearing a mühle glashütte for almost 2 years. what do you guys think about this brand? it's been great so far and is accurate to +5 seconds per day which is great as the one thing i hate in mechanical watches is the constant drift

>>17383733
this brand’s design language is really ugly and no one would care about them if not for the exclusivity

>>17383633
>Classic JLC style
JLC has no "style", no distinctive design elements. Their design language is all over the place. Reverso, Polaris, Master and Master Control lines all have different case shapes, lugs, indices and hands.
Sure, they make good movements and some of their watches look good but as a brand JLC is a mess.

>>17383760
the polaris is the only collection out of those 4 that is clearly out of place with the rest, the MUT and the classic reversos have a lot in common and the MC is not terribly far off from the MUTs

>>17383760
>I prefer Rolex, where all parts are interchangeable.

Oyster Perpetual + Date = Datejust
Datejust + lumed dial = Explorer
Explorer + 40mm case + rotating bezel = Submariner
Submariner + GMT movement = GMT Master
GMT Master - rotating bezel = Explorer II

>>17383666
>Wusscuck shill is at it again.

>>17383765
The most hilarious thing about the Polaris line is how they're marketing the basic Polaris as a field watch with a rotating bezel, and the Polaris Mariner as a diver.

>>17383776
the polaris line is a mess that’s very hard to take seriously and it doesn’t help that it’s not a very flattering looking line either. everything else from JLC is fine though.

>>17383772
Yes, it's smarter to produce things this way.

>>17383778
It will probably be discontinued soon enough. I don't think it's a good seller. Someone probably convinced one of the Richemont execs to tell JLC to make a sports watch.
JLC simply can't do it. They've tried so many times to create a sports watch line. They've tried over and over again (Master Compressor, Navy SEALs, Polaris) to create a distinctive design language.

The simple fact is that JLC buyers don't buy JLCs for sports watches, they buy elegant casual or dress pieces.

>>17383790
to be fair there are only so many good stainless steel sports watches for a reason, and most of them were designed by the same guy. it took vacheron 2 decades to get the overseas right and that was with the 222 already existing as their starting point, JLC really don’t have much to work with in the first place and already go too far out of their element by trying too hard to be sporty in a very dated fashion.

i love the polaris, no date. id buy one if i were in the market for something like that

>>17383790
akshually reverso was the first sports watch in the world
But jokes aside, you are correct

>>17383798
the dial color of the polaris date is better than the polaris no date, but the date window is by far one of the worst ever implemented and reinforces every negative stereotype about date windows

>>17383752
>this brand’s design language is really ugly
lol
At least the case doesn't look like a $20 DW.

>>17383801
no date doesnt have piss lume
has sexy applied numerals
bracelet is very nice

unpopular opinion, but i like the polaris perpetual also
https://youtu.be/FLRxvUcXqcU

>>17383804
lmao
i dont care what it looks like, i care what it is
this is a very asian thought train also, style over substance

>>17383795
>JLC really don’t have much to work with in the first place and already go too far out of their element by trying too hard to be sporty in a very dated fashion.
This is a good point. They want to look vintage but they're creating most of the design cues for the line out of whole cloth. The E859 Memovox Polaris that inspired the line was only made for a very brief time.

I think JLC would be better served making a more casual line of watches instead of trying to make sports watches that compete with brands that already have decades of experience in the segment.

Say, they use the Master line as a starting point, add thicker leather straps, brushed surfaces instead of all high polish, maybe add some fun dial colors, maybe use their complications in a more light-hearted way. They can make their own thing instead of making something where people immediately ask..."Why doesn't this 'diver' have a screwdown crown?"

>>17383747
>What's a good Swiss tonneau watch from an obscure brand for around $1-2k?
Nothing?

>>17383804
you're right, it doesn't. your average saxonia looks closer to DW.
>>17383807
yeah but the weird dial texture on the no date looks like shit. the enamel blue no date has the best dial color, don't really give a shit about lume either way.
>>17383814
a part of me thinks they could do something really quirky with the reverso but they already have multiple times and they fucked it up over and over so i think you're probably a lot more right.

Prepare to cope...

>>17383677
>a tourbillon on the dial is too simple

What are the best watches with an integrated bracelet? I have and love my seiko coutura but I want something higher end maybe in the 5-10k range.

>>17383840
You have to get a genta designed watch. They ain’t cheap

>>17383853
well those aren’t his only options, he could always get an overseas or an odysseus

>>17383856
If I had that kind of money I’d be getting a H. moser streamliner fly back chrono. Is there anything good in my price range or should I just keep tossing money aside for it?

>>17383860
thank god you don't have that kind of money to throw at ironic minimalist modernist watch brands then.

>>17383860
There’s the Cartier pasha and the bulgari octo finissimo

>>17383863
the octo finissimo is a more coherent design than the royal oak, but on the whole it's way more industrial and less appealing, and probably more importantly a lot less iconic. probably needs another 50 years to mature like the RO did.

>>17383868
Again you are shilling this shit? Faggot

>>17383870
this is the first time i have ever posted about the octo finissimo, if i wanted to shill it i would have just straight up said it was better even though it clearly isn't.

>>17383868
I’m the guy who originally asked the question about integrated bracelet watches and I quite like the Bulgarian. It’s a good looking watch. I especially like how thin it is.

>>17383813
>i dont care what it looks like, i care what it is
... what

>>17383877
then go buy one and pray that it appreciates in value and status like the RO in a couple decades.

>>17383880
Doesn't resale value only matter to guys who look at watches as investments?

>>17383884
it's nice to not instantly lose 30% of your watches' value after you buy it

do dumb watches still makes sens in 2022 when smart watches exist?

>>17383885
Might as well only buy Tudor or Rolex then.
Oh wait

>>17383885
>it's nice to not instantly lose 30% of your watches' value after you buy it
True, but if you never plan on selling it, the watch's value is entirely irrelevant.

>>17383889
Smart watches honestly suck ass for anything aside from exercise.

>>17383891
nah, resale value isn’t enough to make me settle for ugly mass market consumer watches

What's the cheapest gmt? Bonus points for automatic I guess

>>17383871
It’s a little too big for a wristlet but it’s amazing in person how thin it is.

>>17383919
Is that the titanium model?

>>17383918
timex

>>17383919
To be fair, nearly all of the integrated bracelet sports watches are too big for wristlets. The Royal Oak in the classic 39mm "Jumbo" size itself wears huge because of the long case and non-articulating bracelet. I have a 7" wrist and it was on the edge of what I could pull off.

It doesn't look large because of the wide bezel, but it definitely wears large.

>soul

>>17383923
Yup. Practically weightless like it’s part of you too.

>>17383933
they’re supposed to wear huge so you can identify it on someone’s wrist from across the street. that’s kind of part of the appeal.

>>17383911
Which Zenith has an integrated bezel?

>>17383750
This general sucks really bad. Those watches look decent.

Is it true that there are certain hours in which you shouldn't change the time/date of your watch because it damages the mechanicals? I've seen a few people say that online.

>>17383990
there is an all black ceramic version but the one you posted is titanium

>>17383939

>>17383994
There is a rumour that if you change your watches time between 10 am and 3pm, you might accidentally cause the local Rolex AD to appear right in front of you, offering special deals on Daytonas.

Ive been wanting to buy a Green watch for a while now and cant decide between these two. Older model Seiko 5 or the Tissot PRX.
Since my wrist is small, id likley go with the 35mm PRX instead of the 40mm pictured here. I dont really mind that its a quarts, I sort of want a quarts anyway, just not sure if I want to pay so much for one. Its sleek and elegant in a way, but something about the Seiko keeps me coming back. Does anyone have any recommendations on some other Green dials I should consider? Alternativley, I could go for the PRX and get the Seiko SRPJ45K1 to mix things up.

>>17384779

Go wit overseas or get the budget option and see if it’s for you

>>17384976
i’ve already tried the overseas IRL, it fits me well. my only concerns are:
- the movement lacks hacking seconds and an instant date change, and i can’t help but be paranoid that vacheron will eventually update it with those features the way patek did with the nautilus
- the blue dial has a shocking amount of unit variance and i would have to handpick a unit with just the right depth, hue and sunburst to be satisfied, which also means buying it from the boutique is not an option for me even ignoring the waiting list

beyond that though, it is the most classical and visually cohesive of the haute horologie sports watches which i find super appealing. i am just trying to make sure there isn’t some obscure contrarian option i haven’t considered yet.

>>17384982
>vacheron will update it
And why would you care about that? I mean yeah you spend a lot of money on this watch. Maybe even a bit too much for my liking but it definitely will hold it’s value overtime regardless of the updates.
I mean if you like it, just do it. Otherwise as a poor man’s rolex owner I wholeheartedly recommend Tudor Royal so you can have something nice while waiting for the perfect moment to buy your dream thing. And it doesn’t cost an arm and the leg

>>17384989
because those are features that i care about and would like to have? it wouldn’t make the watch any worse in my eyes, but they are the last 1% that’s missing that makes me hesitate before making my purchase. and i’m really not in need of a cope watch or a placeholder, i have my dad’s old datejust.

>>17384991
It makes sense.
I just really like Overseas and it wouldn’t bother me if I had Vacheron money to drop into it. I don’t like anything Lange, but Czapek is fucking class. Never had a chance to look at one in person. What’s your opinion on it?

>>17384992
i have not had the chance to handle the czapek in person either and i don’t even think there are any czapek ADs where i live. it’s a very unorthodox and maybe even too modernistic take on the haute sports watch. the movement is really very unusual looking and the bracelet manages to be mechanically the same as the nautilus one but also completely different and matching the silhouette of the case. it pushes into maybe too sleek for my taste, but it’s still a very attractive watch in my opinion. my favorite variant is probably the blue terre adelie, too bad it was limited.

>>17384994
Lol there’s one where I live. After all Czapek met Patek in Warsaw…
Regardless that Drake Glacier is nice.
If I’d be you I would get on a a plane and go check it out. You want to put a lot of money into the deal so you definitely should take the time to verify all the details

>>17384999
i don’t think i like it enough over the overseas to fly overseas (lol) to try one, but i do appreciate the watch and i think it’s underrated.

>>17385002
What about Lange? Imho it’s fucking ugly piece of shit, but does it tickle your pickle?

>>17385007
the movement is very beautiful, just as beautiful as the vacheron if not more. the rest of the watch is, well, stereotypically lange. large flat case with no attempt made at being lithe or sleek, very stark and minimal adornments, large date window and for symmetry an additional unnecessary day window. you either like this design language or you don’t, it’s definitely very utilitarian and nothing like the swiss. i guess what i like most about it is that it really looks like a lange saxonia adopted into a sports watch, rather than the genta watches where the design language of the watch has virtually nothing in common with the brand’s other watches (cough cough patek)

the problem with it is that fundamentally speaking it’s not actually an integrated bracelet watch (the bracelet on earlier units was removable but this was changed presumably to make it fall under the label) and the bracelet itself is just awkward. very busy compared to the simplicity and elegance of the overseas or something like the royal oak, almost like a rolex jubilee with the links upsized. the dial is also, from an aesthetic standpoint, kind of dull. the swiss trinity, the antartique, even something like the moser steamliner, all have a lot of very complex and pretty stuff going on with their dials, but apparently all lange did was a flat color with some finishing differences in different sections. i have the same problem with the JLC no date polaris. and the fact that it’s a relationship piece at lange boutiques with comical gray prices really doesn’t help.

>>17384965
This. They should be able to make an integrated one, either flat or with a bump.

>>17385015
Yeah. Fuck ze germans
How about Royal Oak? You definitely have the money (or you’re a nice larper) so why wouldn’t you consider AP?

>>17385019
i don’t like the royal oak, never have and probably never will. too brutal and industrial, lacks finesse.

>>17385020
I do like the slab aesthetics. Manly and not gay.
Have you looked into Zenith Defy? I mean classic is beautiful, but it might be too cheap for you

>>17385021
>I do like the slab aesthetics. Manly and not gay.
i think there's a way to pull that off without coming off as excessively loud and unnuanced, but i'm sure anyone who tries that will be branded a genta wannabe so it will never happen. also something about hexagonal screws against an octagonal bezel bothers me, i know why it's done but that doesn't mean i have to like it.

>Have you looked into Zenith Defy?
i have, and i have the same issues with it that I do the GP laureato - it really doesn't do anything very interesting. case of an overseas, bezel of a rounded RO, bracelet of a nautilus, and i don't really like any of the dial options either. never been a fan of skeleton dials, so i would probably go for a skyline if i had to choose, and i'm really confused by the point of the plusses throughout the dial (aside from copying the RO, again) and the asymmetrical small seconds (which weirdly enough reminds me of the 2300V 37mm overseas).

>>17384949
How is there even a competition lmao
Get the Rolex. Omega is tasteless.

>>17385031
> Get the Rolex. Omega is tasteless.
The most npc answer itt

>>17385030
Idk man… If I were you I’d go for Overseas. You can of course try researching microbrands but do you want to waste your life on that?
You can always wait for W&W and see if there’s an update to Overseas but I think by that time it’ll be 7-15% more for the watch.
Up to you my man

Rec me smaller diver watches (under 40mm pref) with a steel bezel. Auto preferred but got no problem with quartz either. Budget is up to 500 euros.

>>17385045
yeah i have no interest in legit microbrands, i find that stuff (like that yema shit that keeps getting posted here, yuck) really embarrassing. i was more interested in whether or not i was missing anything from the smaller haute brands like czapek and moser.

waiting until W&W 2023 is what i’m stuck considering at the moment, but the thing is even if i do, boutique waitlists here for a blue 4500V are still years long because there are simply too many rich people where i live, and if i want to wait for an updated 4500V to appear on the gray market i would be looking at maybe 3-6 months after release (and who knows when that will be). in other words i could end up looking at a full year before i get my goddamn watch which is really gay, and i would be even more annoyed if i waited until april and literally nothing happened. it’s a very first world problem but it bothers me regardless.

>>17385053
Orient Ray or second hand Hydroconquest 39mm

>>17385056
Adding to your point paying premiom to the nigger on g(r)ay market is unironically full homosex.
Where are you based if the waitlist are such problem for VC?

>>17385062
well the gay market premium for the overseas is significantly lower than it was earlier this year, now you're looking at an extra 5-6k over retail which is quite frankly something i'm fine with if it means not having to deal with the waitlist and being able to handpick a unit with a nice dial.

>>17385055
That orient ray looks great but hard to find with the steel bezel. I'll keep looking.

>>17385064
The notion of puting Speedmaster money into some jews pocket simply disgusts me. Not to mention the implications of getting fucked because you want to consume.
What I’d do is try to call some ADs abroad and figure out whether or not they have something in store that you can outright buy.
On the other hand I think I’ll fly myself to London to put myself on the list for Harrods edition Black Bay.

>>17385036

Omega is possibly the most NPC/Reddit brand out there.

I could sell my Rolex and buy 3 Omegays lmao

>>17385160

>>17384911
If you're considering it to the point that you're asking about it, and it's only fifty bucks, I'd say just go for it.

>>17385169
I think I’ll do that. After all Archie’s in ass atm

>>17384156
Looks cool, even if it is a $1000 microshitter

2,5k US rupees. I really want this shitter so bad. Should I cop? I love the design and it’s perfect size for my midsized wrist.

>>17385225
True GMT or office GMT?

>>17384816
really nice watch, i think quartz make great gmt choices.

>>17385225
Do the needful.

>>17385225
half and half. I travel on holidays and to symposiums (at least two times a year). Otherwise, clinic watch.

>>17384899

>>17385249

>>17385249
No, sorry. I meant, does the movement have true GMT function (i.e. the hour hand can be adjusted independently of the GMT hand)?

>>17385293
From what I can see here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkpJNif6kdU , it does.

>>17385225
Fucking ugly as fuck.

The old Skyquest was great and they had to ruin it like this. Fuck them in the ass.

>>17384982
>i am just trying to make sure there isn’t some obscure contrarian option i haven’t considered yet.

>>17385351
i mentioned the moser in subsequent posts. i don’t hate it but the aesthetic does absolutely nothing for me, i’m sure there are people that are all over it though.

>>17385348
Not the right tone of green. Looks like baby diarrhea.

cop or nah? 90 eur

>>17385426
Oh, just buy it. It's not even a hundred.

>>17385426
Thr incredibly scratched jewelry case comes together with the watch to create a certain je ne sais quoi

>>17385425
I have tons of fun trying on grand seikos in person. They aren’t really made for wristlets like me and I’m not crazy about how they look on me personally, but on the right wrist(not mine, lol) they are awesome

do i polish

>>17385452
Yes

>>17384235
Oh ok then, sorry bro

>>17384132
You can find them basically at retail on Facebook watch groups like Moda

>>17385447
I really want to like GS but they make it hard sometimes

>>17385467
Yeah I’m so fucking bored of their indices and hands. Yeah Rolex can use the same hands on anything. They’re Rolex. Gs shouldn’t. And why can’t they just take the 44gs case and make a 70% scale version of it or something?

>>17385452
With 80 grit sandpaper apparently

>>17383889
>>17383896
smart watches are worse than useless, notifications on your wrist is a bad thing, they'll be obsolete in a few years and if you just use it as a normal watch it uses electricity has 0.00001% of the battery charge of a quartz.

>>17385486
>And why can’t they just take the 44gs case and make a 70% scale version of it or something?
This is one of my major complaints as well. They have all these amazing vintage case shapes that would look fantastic today but they don't make good use of them. I don't want exact repros of old watches in 35mm cases but i would love to see them take those shapes and apply modern gs hand and dial design and make 38 or 39 mm watches. Fuck these limited handwinding reissues. Really they need to bring in a strong talented designer with vision for the brand that can devlop a coherent collection taking advantages of the brands strength and giving them better designs. I get the impression that different models are designed by different people entirely with no thought to maintaing a coherent design language. Also some of the special edition dials are executed beautifully and some seem to be slapped together somewhat haphazardly.

Afternoon, /fa/ggots. How is everyone today? For me, it's short range target practice with wedges and 7-9 irons at this red piece of wood with muh Cartier shitter. So far, I'm 17 out of 35ish. I was supposed to actually play today, but my home course cancelled my reservation because apparently 3 people showed up all day because muh cold and sprinkles.

>>17385569

maybe if you weren’t poor and had to play at some muni piece of shit you wouldn’t have these problems.

>>17385576
Stop posting fucking basedboys and maybe people will start taking you seriously

>>17385351
I absolutely love this watch. The links on the bracelet are what get me the most. Too bad I’m poor

Opinion on my watch?

>>17385626
square

>>17385626
I vomited a bit

>>17385626
looks like one of those cheap bedside alarm clocks

>>17385626
What time is it?

>>17384293
It's called the a700

>>17383935
looks like a vostok but 10 times the price

>>17385626
Good pick if you want everyone to know you have absolutely no taste.

>>17385626
I think its cool anon :)

what's wrong with tag heuer? I like picrel a lot

>>17385795
Only marginable not shit is the Breitling

>>17385803
nothing, I love my carrera a lot, great watch for the price. (>>17385795)
>>17385813
perhaps, but I like them all & thats all that really matters, now post watches.

>>17385803
Some say it's really shiny.

>>17385803
I have this with just the date, it's nice, thinking about getting the silver dial, too.
The qrd is that tag purchased Heuer and pumped out watches for 2k with a movement that could be found in a $500 mall watch or so

>>17385803
I like the case shape though, it reminds me of GS for some reason.

>>17385861
why is there a dick

>>17385865
Because it's a PenisQuartz. Some watches even had two of them.

>>17385874
Oh, the famous Frottage edition, available only in Japan.

>get pic related
>take out 5 links from bracelet

Okay, what now? what do I go with here?

>>17385904
get fat

>>17384949
DONT GET THE MODERN GLOBEMASTER. terrible proportions, overpriced & a split in the face to the OG vinatge ones

>>17384934
First gen Overseas is cooler than current gen, but if you want something modern go with the Parmesani Tonda. More under the radar & avaliable in more sizes & a few really unique complications

>>17385904
get a different bracelet/strap
>>17385917
also an option

>>17385948
i find the first and second gen overseas awkward and clunky. 0 interest whatsoever.

any info on the seiko in the pic?
found it for a bargain

First time using the GMT jumping hour hand on my Grand Seiko. Such a great travel watch

Does anyone have the wojack watch tier image?

>>17385803
Idk. I bought mine F1 a year ago and I love it

>>17386039
i like that shade of green. ive thought about that watch before, i like the looks of it, but have no use for a gmt.

>>17386055
It's actually an inky black. SBGN003.

>>17386062
oh oops. pic made it look like the green model they have. i like both anyway.

>>17385803
>what's wrong with tag heuer?
It makes Tudor and Rolexfags cope, seethe, dilate, have sex and kill themselves

Anyone who says it's good/ok is just coping for being unable to afford something better.

>>17385948
>>17386008
Second gen is the best. Those were MAN watches, no sissy minimalist bullshit.

Nigger, I walk and carry when I play, hence the "stand bag". It's also 40 degrees and raining, so there are these things called 'covered and heated ranges'. Weird concept, I know.

guy doesn't have any infos on the model but found a very similar one

Perhaps it isn't fake then and it's just in a terrible condition. Not worth the hassle.
