if we're talking brand name value, ie what kind of watch will impress normies the most 99 times out of 100 it's gotta be a rollie right? surely your average girl you run into at a bar isn't gonna know anything about omega or tudor or jaeger lecoultre or whatever, right?

Help me decide please. After asking for recommendations in the previous thread I am trying to choose between a Seiko Presage cocktail time (I really like the colorful dial design) and the Vario Empire series, really like the classy art deco look (see pic)..

I'm a first timer and just looking for something solid and eye-catching.

It's because you're gay, friend

>>17411475
there still is the VC Overseas which beats both of them.

Noticing everyone on YouTube calling premium G-Shocks M-R-G, but it's spelt MR-G. I honestly wouldn't put it past the Japanese to call premium G-Shocks "Mister G" and shall pronounce it so.

>>17411478
VC is just weird, super old company but their models aren't even close to Patek

>>17411484
you're right, their complications are way more accomplished and impressive than anything patek has put out in the last 40 years.

>>17411486
If that's true how come nobody talks about VC?

>>17411490
because you only pay attention to hype watches, not haute horologie.

>>17411434

>>17411490

>>17411443
I actually quite like the AP and i also think the Nautilus is ugly and feminine, a pussy watch. The Overseas is trying a bit too much.

>>17411403
I feel like I just watched hours of basedcontent in just few seconds

>>17411504

>>17411270

>>17411418
Shitter. It filters out the casuals and poorfag cope.

Name one flaw? Very tempting buy for a GADA

Bros, I have a dilemma.

I'm looking to purchase my first haute horologie sports watch and I've fallen in love with the design of the blue dial Vacheron Overseas 4500V. The blue is the most perfect blue I've ever seen on a watch, the Maltese Cross logo being used in almost every design aspect of the watch appeals a lot to my sensibilities in visual design and art (namely cohesion and unity of form), and it's so much more elegant and restrained than the Nautilus and Royal Oak to me, which I think matches my personality and dress much better. The waiting lists at boutiques are still really long, but the gray market prices where I am are finally right. I'm ready to make my purchase.

There's just one minor problem. I think it looks just a little too big on my wrist. I have a 15cm/6.5inch wrist that lays fairly flat, but the 4500V Overseas is a 41mm watch that wears more like a 42 or 43mm watch and pushes the limits of what my wrist can handle. Pic related, take into account that there is minor lens distortion going on in this photo. I may be too used to my dad's old 36mm Datejust but this really does just feel too big. Or is my brain just playing tricks on me and a watch wearing like this on a wrist is fine these days?

Assuming it really is just a hair too big, I have come up with the following alternative solutions, none of which feel terribly satisfying.

>>17411700
Option 1: Buy the 4500V anyways and cope like it's not oversized for my wrist.

Option 2: Downsize to the 37mm 2300V. The main problem I have with this is that even without the diamonds, it still looks like a woman's watch with the tapered hands and the smaller cleaner dial.

Option 3: Complete wildcard option, buy a Parmigiani Fleurier Tonda PF Rattrapante GMT instead, at 40mm and with a very useful dualtime complication for around the price of a gray market Overseas. I have not had the chance to try this one on in person yet but it should just barely fit my wrist given the Overseas feels like it just barely doesn't. My issues with this are that a): the design really does feel like it borders on too subtle and refined relative to the overseas and b): the watch has so many polished surfaces that it would drive me insane with how many fingerprints and scratches it would show after just a little daily wear.

Thoughts?

>>17411701
Take it as you want, but I don't think the Overseas is too big for you. It's perfectly fine

>>17411700
start working out, hit forearms twice a week

>>17411610
It's OK, better looking than the Nautilus in my book, it just doesn't seem thought out, a bit forced with that complicated bezel.

>>17411701
I'd go for the Parmesan.

>>17411700
unfortunately, i do think that watch is too big for your wrist. Black line is the lugs and red is your wrists. Since the watch you want is a little too big I would not jump into a cope watch right away wait a few months and see if the parmigiani feels right still. I like that better than the small seconds overseas. Might want to wait until watches and wonders this year maybe VC will come out with a steal 222. I think that watch would be perfect for you

>>17411701
I'd choose the 37mm version, do you have a wrist shot with it, too?

>>17411731
whoops i realized i spelled steel wrong and switched the colors so top is black wrist and red lugs and bottom is red wrist and black lugs. Just a little too big. I've gotten watches too big for my wrist before and it drives me crazy I would not try to force it.

>>17411733
Nope, that one was discontinued a while back and I haven’t visited any gray market/used dealers that have one. Not exactly a common model.
>>17411731
Assuming there is some lens distortion going on this would mean the watch is just barely too big or barely alright, both of which I’m not terribly comfortable with. I feel like I need to try it on again and take some pictures at a distance to be absolutely sure if it really is too big or lens distortion is just fucking with my memory.
>wait a few months and see if the parmigiani feels right still
I’ve done a huge survey of every other integrated bracelet sports watch on the market and the Parmigiani is the only other one I could see myself wearing. Unless something new comes out I don’t see that changing. Speaking of something new,
>maybe VC will come out with a steal 222. I think that watch would be perfect for you
I’m assuming they will. The problem is that the gold 222 is already unobtanium and the steel one will unquestionably be even worse at this, even with hype watch prices depreciating. There will just be too long a waiting list with units obviously going to VIPS first and at the outset the gray market prices will be insane until more units enter circulation. So basically even assuming it ever reaches a healthy price I’m looking at a year after W&W2023 before I can probably even entertain getting my fucking watch which is kind of insane. And I haven’t added the part where I don’t really like the design of the 222 as much as the Overseas.

Also came across this beauty while on the vc site seeing if they made a steel 222. Triple calendar, 40mm, 10.3mm thick only 21k this watch is really cool imo

reminds me of a Rolex with original box and papers (with some dealer address from Asia on the papers) that looks as fake as you can possibly imagine. The current seller is in Europe and probably trusted the papers.

Also, you're the first case where the reasoning for getting the fake sort of makes sense

Why are you so poor?

>>17411850
off topic but I don't like how dueling scars have been appropriated to just mean "freak" or "weirdo", the idea of supervillains having a dueling scar is that in the early 20th c, there were still people in central europe still getting them, so by the mid 20th c seeing a bad guy with a dueling scar implied that they were a member of the old aristocracy and therefore more intimidating/scary

a man with a scar on his face that resembles a dueling scar in the 21st c is just a larper and the use of scar makeup to make the bad guy look even badder is simply lazy and insulting to the audience

I don't get what metric you are using for this. Entry level end sinn is more expensive than entry level hamilton. Only casio SEs are the expensive ones.

>>17411844
Hehe you're poor I'm very funny

>>17411854
Not that retarded guy, I couldn't care less about VC, but A. Lange & Söhne are super based and better made than almost every Patek.

>>17411878
ah yes, lange. beautiful movements, mediocre dials, ugly cases, uglier lugs, and god help you if you ever buy anything with a bracelet from them.

>>17411801
I do, give me a way to send a message to you.
It's vert easy. I'll send you a small paragraph of information and a TL;DR.
Anything like an mailadress works

Besides Hamilton, what other watch brands revive vintage watches? They also have the Khaki Pilot Pioneer 38mm and the 36mm Pilot Pioneer mechanical. Chronographs very welcome.

Hello /fa/, are there any additional infographics or guides available for poorfag watches (under 200eu)? I'm a 25 year old male working in the arts / culture sphere. I'd like something that looks refined but not too rich or bulky. Not interested in fast fashion / minimal looking shit. I like black straps, the material is not important.

One watch that I liked was the Orient Defender II Automatic RA-AK0404B10B. Is there anything similar, maybe cheaper?

Thank you /fa/

>>17411898
Longines brings a lot of design cues back from its back catalog.
Zenith also sometimes does some revivals of old models.

Got a Seiko coutura chronograph for Christmas, the metal bracelet is kind of annoying, can I replace it with leather straps? I want sting ray

Let me guess - you "need" more.

I thought this shit used musou black, but it's just regular plain old black. So lame.

>>17411898

What do you guys think about Citizen Eco-Drive BM8550-14AE?

>>17411901

The first link in the OP is the poorfag guide

>>17411313
I would've said Orient's classic line, but you've already mentioned the brand so you mightve looked at them already. what's your price limit? does it need to be mechanical?

>>17411944
Thanks. Yes, I checked the poorfag guide, that's where my eye caught the Orient Defender watch. This Seiko looks nice as well. Although I would be more interested in a black leather/fabric strap, this looks cool too. I am also somewhat interested in something like this >>17411936

>>17411403
I read all of these in Teddy's voice

>>17411952
You can always change the bracelet/strap. As for that watch, maybe check out Orient Bambino.

Trying to decide between a Seiko presage cocktail time (Love the dial colors) and something I found called a Vario Empire watch(see pic)

https://vario.sg/collections/empire-watch-automatic

This would be my first serious watch purchase. Ive heard with the Seiko you should replace the strap and that the glass is hard quality is hardlex or something which is subpar.

I really like the design on the vario art deco ones and apparently they are good quality. What do you guys think?

This would be for wearing to work (somewhat fancyoffice) and for going out to restaurants and bars.

Thank you

>>17412064
yes

>>17412074
>something I found called
Doesn't that pretty much say it all?

>>17412075
color me surprised

>>17412074
Go for the one that pulls you the most. Or just buy both and be done with it.

>>17412076

I'm torn. On one hand the Seiko has that color eye-catching dial that really appeals to me. From my research it appears to be a good watch in terms of what I am looking for.

I do like the Vario empire, but there are only 2 designs left and they aren't bad per se, its just the sold out ones (like the silver and gunmetal) that really look stunning. The irresponsible part of me would buy both lol.

>>17412074
If you value heritage go with Seiko, but if you're completely in-love with the look get the Vario. Hardlex iirc scratches more but doesn't crack, and from a quick google search I think you can replace it with an aftermarket sapphire crystal. I'm guessing you're very indecisive (like me) so you find this very difficult. At the end of the day, whichever you buy, you'll probably have a niggling feeling that will make you wonder what it would've if you had gotten the other watch. Just get one and buy the other a few months from now.

Or maybe go in-person in a shop and take a look at the Seiko. Might sway you.

Does anyone know why the 1970s-1990s Seamaster Polaris runs so cheap? Even used Omegas are still fairly costly, but these don't hit more than $2k anywhere I've seen online.

>>17412096
I think the demand for those just isn't that high

>>17412074
also "hardlex" is just mineral glass, and mineral glass from any serious watch company is going to be more impact-resistant than sapphire, it wasn't an accident that the OG MM300 had hardlex, they only switched to sapphire because it was hurting sales and nobody actually uses those things for diving anyway. for a dress watch a case can be made for sapphire but calling mineral glass "subpar" is just ignorant

>>17412090
>>17412093
>>17412099


Alright. Tomorrow I am going in-person to try out the Seiko to see how it feels. I guess its pretty obvious that I am indecisive.

Thanks for the guidance, I appreciate it. I will be sure to come back and post pictures. Long term I will probably end up getting both.

>>17412091
I'm not personally that sold on the vario from the picture you posted. tuxedo dials are kinda flashy and if you're going for flashy it had better look damm good. to me the gold standard for current production art deco dials is longines, which look far better in person than in photos and they look quite nice indeed in photos. I wouldn't settle for anythingn less in an art deco watch

>>17412096
Not many people like it, so it's not driven up by demand. If you like it, buy it knowing you got a great deal.
But only if you really like it and not just because it sasy Omega on the dial.

>>17412096
They're a dated design. They're stuck between new stuff that everyone wants and vintage stuff that everyone wants. They're also small and quartz. So basically nothing that the majority of the current market wants.

That said, though, they're definitely unique and we should never fault a company for wanting to push the boundaries of design. If you got one you'd probably get compliments on it from non-watch people simply because it looks so unique.

The GMT version of it is particularly cool, IMO.

>>17412098
>>17412125
That's kind of what I've seen. I took mine to get the bracelet adjusted recently and the watch shop ladies were all pretty impressed, along with some of my watchfag coworkers when I first bought it.

>>17412105
I mean, if someone's shopping for anything with an Omega dial there are shittier used models I feel like. I just liked the case design.

It's a non-issue. A powermatic 80 is basically just an ETA 2824 (one of the most common Swiss automatic movements) with a free-sprung balance, that is laser regulated from the factory.
A free-sprung balance is always a little harder to regulate, but if it were that difficult, then Rolexes would be a massive pain in the ass to service. ("Bro, just take it to your local watchmaker, anyone can service a Rolex.")

Look for a longines, or tissot

>>17412286
Previous guy who was shilling longines earlier. I went through a similar process. I checked them both out in person. Tissot looks worse IRL than in the pics. Like kinda embarrassingly shitty. I actually felt cheated when I went to the shop to check some out, like I had been catfished.

Longines looks better, a longines is kind of a high class watch if I'm not being too bold (no I don't own one but I've been impressed by every one that I handled).

Gray market. Not the colors.

>>17412399
Which model, though?

>>17412400
https://watchcharts.com/watches/brand_index/rolex

>>17412401
Kind of a strange index. It tracks 11 different kinds of Daytona, 5 different Submariners.

I mean, yeah, the prices going down is obvious. Tail end of a bubble, values coming back down to reality, but still, that index also suggests that the investment market is disproportionally heavily skewed towards Daytonas, which is a very low volume model.

Unless you had a position in Daytonas, I don't see any reason to not feel good.

>>17412406
When to buy (not for investment literally just for lower prices)

>6.5 inch wrist
what case diameter?

>>17412418
Mine is 6.75

I read some boomer on watchuseek create this metric:
Find your wrist size in mm
Divide wrist size by case diameter

Anything lower than 4 is too big, anything larger than 5 is too small.

>>17412416
Prices are going down, I'm a buyer. Every week I'm smiling more.

If you're actually investing in watches, you're an idiot unless you've got so much money/inventory you can move the market itself.

>>17412096
I actually just got one of these for Christmas and the chain is too short. A few links for it cost $125+, and at that point I’m wondering if I shouldn’t just buy a second Polaris, cannibalize the bracelet, and put a leather strap on it so i have one in steel and one in leather. Thoughts?

>>17412418
Depends on the proportions of the watch as a whole. I have watches that go from 35mm to 41mm in diameter with a 6.5" wrist myself.

>>17412431
Yes, this is about right. For me 42 is probably the highest I can go.

That being said, can you pull off the seiko king turtle with a less than 7 inch wrist?

>>17412431
I was considering a Oyster perpetual 34mm but it might be too small.

Probably wouldn't be to be honest.

It's the ascended conclusion, when you recognize any attempt to construct individuality out of commercial products will ultimately result in something contrived

>>17412257
>>17412260
from my understanding the powermatic 80 literally cannot be regulated, it comes as it is from the factory and when there's something wrong, no watchmaker can service it either, it's not made to be. it has to be sent to the maker, who will throw the movement away and put in a new one

If only. What they actually do is rip the guts out of the watch and replace the movement with a dirt cheap movement from China, so it'll break suddenly in a few weeks or months and be useless.

>>17412198
it’s perfect. Pros: Hamilton, 38mm, cathedral hands, lovely numerals. Cons: None.

Die they put an anti reflective coating on this model? Most Hamiltons have blinding God-awful glare and have to be looked at via weird angles. Also it should be $500 like the others, not $900.

You can find some Lacos for $300-400. Also, Laco was one of the original manufactures. I consider only German watches to be true Fliegers.

Got a dress watch with an integrated metal bracelet, can't find any compatible leather straps online, still need to remove links anyway for a better fit... Anyone know about making your own straps or modifying?

>>17412418
It's a bit more complicated. Wrists are (practically) two-dimensional and uniquely shaped. For a general guide see picrel.
What i think matters more when determining the appropriate size of the watch is wrist width (how wide it is when looking at it from the top) and case diameter. You divide wrist width by phi (1.618) and you get your case diameter. Also the lug-to-lug distance should always be shorter than the wrist width so that the lugs don't hang over. Also take note that there are certain types of watches that are supposed to be bigger, like divers or pilot watches, and different watch shapes wear differently as well (one 40mm watch might look smaller than another 40mm watch).

still looking for a "signature" blue dial watch, after you guys helped me with the chart. I want to wear it with a suit. candidates are:

1) rolex datejust, either fluted or smooth bezel and jubilee bracelet.
pros: I want a rolex at some point, might also get a two-tone 80's style one
cons: smooth bezel may be too bland, fluted to gaudy. I hate the cyclops lense

2) tudor royal
pros: pretty unique
cons: could also be too gaudy

3) longines master - my favourite so far
pros: the moon phase is something different, no date complication
cons: it's quite boxy, would rather go with the 38mm version and 20mm bracelet

4) longines record
pros: slim, interesting bracelet
cons: date complication looks out of place

>>17412794
then there is also the longines flagship, but the only thing I like about it is the bracelet, the rest of the design is really generic and again the date complication ruins the dial for me

Never expected a cheap digital watch would look pretty good and cool. Which digital watch should I consider for my next purchase?

>>17412794
#3 looks good considering it will be worn with a suit, but looks also a little bit cheap, #1 is great, #2 #4 are both quite ugly
have you considered rolex oyster perpetual (picrel) btw? no cyclop and not too bland even with smooth bezel

I'm on the waiting list for an OP, but at the second visit to the AD I saw it on the wrist of the staff and it looked too casual for a suit, feels like a true sport watch

>>17412846
it is more versatile but still fine for an everyday suit at work

>>17412846
no one ever mentions it but the bezel of the OP is a hideous bulbous tumor on an otherwise fairly nice watch. all it would take is a bezel swap from the smooth datejust bezel onto the OP but nope, gotta give people a reason to buy a date complication i guess

not really no, just obvious knockoffs that rip off almost every design element of the original.

this is so basic it isn't even a ripoff, homage is the real cope

>>17412883
so basic that they couldn’t even bother to finish the bracelet differently from the 6 digit datejust references, lmao.
>homage is the real cope
don’t worry, both the tissoi and homages can be copes together :)

>>17412865
>>17412885
my thoughts exactly, it's a mix of op and datejust with larger hands and a prominent tissot logo. also their watches tend to look thick, even if it's only 12mm

>>17412907
You hate german haute horologie? SAD

>>17412911
it used to work like that 10 years ago. the difference is that clicking add to cart in a virtual store and being shown around in a showroom by a SA are two very different experiences. when i was 8 years old and my parents were buying datejusts the buying experience left a bigger impression on me than the watch they actually walked out with, and i suspect the same applies to anyone who grew up seeing rolex boutiques as immaculately polished luxury stores.

>>17412925
don't you just have more people that can afford a high end watch in your social circle than an average normie does?

>>17412928
maybe, i could hardly care less though. my point is that a huge part of the branding with luxury watchmakers (even mass market ones like rolex and omega, lets not even talk about actual haute horologie like patek or lange) is the buying experience, simply adding to cart on amazon greatly cheapens it and destroys a part of what makes it a luxury purchase. this is also why i can’t take AP seriously, because their SAs are usually smug assholes who will kick you out of their store without an appointment.

>>17412933
but I am saying that the exclusiveness in the eye of general population would be the same even if it was just "add to cart" process, the price itself makes them exclusive enough
letting them to be sold on amazon would hurt their image, but if you could buy them only via official website it would hardly make a change, maybe only for snobs

Thoughts on Serica? I'd grab a field and dive watch from them tbqhdesusenpai.

>>17412937
>but I am saying that the exclusiveness in the eye of general population would be the same even if it was just "add to cart" process
no, it wouldn’t. the general population idolizes rolex because of the people who buy it, and the people who buy it buy rolex because of the brand’s image and luxury experience. the former would not exist without the latter. pop culture exists downstream from the hands of the few but powerful.

>>17412939
general population idolizes rolex because it became a synonym for high end watch many years ago, they know nothing about people who buy it or what the experience is like, their knowledge is limited to rolex = expensive

>>17412942
>it became a synonym for high end watch many years ago
and it became one because of celebrities and politicians wearing it, along with rolex ad banners and boutiques plastered in every major city. what, do you think they just became synonymous with “luxury watch” overnight by accident? how naive.

>>17412944
mainly because of clever advertising, product placement in era it wasn't heard of in, sponsoring events like wimbledon or F1, that's the main reason they acquired this status compared to all other luxury watch brands that offer the same to their customers

>>17412933
I cannot for the life of me understand what drives people to line up to hand over $50k for the privilege of being treated like a shoplifter. same goes for anyone buying waitlist watches.

is this like a findom kink or what explains this?

>>17412944
>what, do you think they just became synonymous with “luxury watch” overnight by accident?
you just listed it in the sentence before and the luxury experience they provide to customers is not on the list, all other luxury brands do that

>>17412948
yes, marketing, and getting their watches on the wrists of former presidents and current celebrities. it’s exactly the same with the RO and nautilus, the biggest reason why both those watches are so sought after is because of the people wearing them and the status symbol they have been turned into as a result. speaking of the royal oak,
>>17412949
AP know they can get away with treating their average customer like dogshit because for every customer they lose they can easily replace them with 30 other eager buyers, and even if they lose all of them they have rappers and celebrities alike queuing up to buy limited pieces, not unlike with patek. though for whatever reason patek boutiques have been very respectful to me, i even got to try on a 5811 recently. go figure.
>>17412952
do you really think any of the luxury brands at all would have the clientele they have if not for the ultra rich they cater to? who exactly do you think is buying patek grand complications?

>>17412949
I'm not a watch guy, so idk what watch field cucked rituals are, but I would not cone back to the same store if they treated me badly initially.

If i was told i was not worty and should have bever gotten it in the first place, i would stand and straight up told them fuck you, you can keep the watch if it is so dear to you, give it to another client on yours. And thats it. Later i would share story online with the intention on hurting the sales person position in the company. Idk if Rolex cares about such things.

>>17412979
>Later i would share story online with the intention on hurting the sales person position in the company.
it would probably do absolutely nothing and you would walk away from the experience with both a bruised ego and no watch to show for it.

>>17412903
Rolex also makes a huge amount of money from the ADs keeping their AD status

>>17412982
>with both a bruised ego
The opposite of it, anon. Ego would be hurt if you take them shitting on you. You would take the watch and walk away like a bruised dog in this situation, they literally threated a guy like a dirt. I don't think it is often occurence that client who came for his delivered watch would make a scene and told them to fuck off, that would be opposite with getting shat on by those people. I don't need your fuckin watch if you throw it to me like a change to dirty hobo.

>the absolute state of watch snobs
I was with my uncle who went to get a new Bentley few years ago and there was no cuckoldry needed, they just configured it together and ordered it for him and that was it. Can some of you even imagine that???
And the service was top level nonetheless, it is respectable they know their clientele and can provide for their specific needs without playing any shitty games. While the end product costs n-times more than some fucking watch that just sits on your wrist and shows time.
Watch business people should really pull their heads out of their asses. And half of you even celebrate them for treating you like peasants.

yeah, and they wouldn’t care because they’d have another buyer to replace him at the store before the end of the workday. bottom line hardly affected by one angry customer and some impotent online screeching.
>>17412995
you completely missed the point of my posts if that was your takeaway. i specifically shat on AP because of their history of catering to niggers and taking a fat dump on everyone else. i will gladly never buy nor wear a royal oak ever. also i have no interest in buying a 5811 nor would i be able to given i am not a patek high roller, it was just to illustrate the difference in customer service between PP and AP.

>>17412998
That wasn't pointed specifically to you but to anyone who loves to be treated like a subhuman by literal shop assistants that cannot even afford what they sell.

>>17412998
>yeah, and they wouldn’t care because they’d have another buyer to replace him at the store before the end of the workday. bottom line hardly affected by one angry customer and some impotent online screeching.

Maybe, they may care or not, I'm keeping my honor either way.

Their bottom line does not concern me,
and what they do or not do with this information online does not concern me also. I'm not gona lose sleep over it.

>>17413003
not sure how getting walked all over and having nothing to show for it is “keeping your honor”, but sure, if it floats your boat. if i were him i’d just flip the RO for a profit, but then again i don’t even like the watch.

>>17413005
>not sure how getting walked all over and having nothing to show for it is “keeping your honor”

Anon, getting walked over is accepting something they throw at you with disgust on their face
>H-have you watch and walk away, don't scare the customers, shu!

I dont want that thing they throwing at me, it is not worth it. I'm keeping my honor by not accepting it and pointing out their low class behavior to them in their face.

But then again, I would not be in this situation to begin with. I would walk away the first time they treat me, a customer, with clear disrespect.

Waiting or small talking your way up is one thing, being disrespected is another.

>>17413015
>Anon, getting walked over is accepting something they throw at you with disgust on their face
they already pissed on your face by being as difficult as humanly possible about the purchase. that ship sailed ages ago, turning around and refusing the watch doesnt magically un-piss your face. the damage is done, throwing a tantrum and licking your wounds doesn’t mean they aren’t there.
>I'm keeping my honor by not accepting it and pointing out their low class behavior to them in their face.
you’re doing something that doesn’t affect them at all. but you know what would affect them? buying it and then turning around and making a profit on their asses, because they WILL know that you specifically flipped it once the serial number is registered under a name that isn’t yours, and using an allocation to make a profit is a massive fuck-you to boutiques. if you’re gonna get back at them, do it in a way that actually matters.

i mean i don’t really care about your cute fantasy about what you would do if you could buy a watch that you are clearly in no position to purchase. i’m explaining what would actually hurt the boutique instead of throwing a temper tantrum over a very expensive happy meal toy.

it’s simple, no one really cares about your moral grandstanding about how you’re “too good to do business with the shop”. like yeah, no shit, most of us would just walk out the door at the first sign of a bad attitude smartass, you’re not clever for suggesting that. the more interesting discussion centers around how best to handle the situation once you already have your allocation sitting there waiting for you to pick it up in spite of the boutique making you walk barefoot over glass to get it. the fact that you missed this in your grandiose attempt to virtual signal is kinda sad and quite frankly makes you a terrible conversationalist more than anything.

>Talking shit about AP because some nigs like it

This is the biggest cope on the internet from a poor dude today

>>17413050
>it’s simple, no one really cares about your moral grandstanding about how you’re “too good to do business with the shop"

It is not moral grandstanding, it is about not getting anyone wipe their shoes on you. (you) should be the person, who cares about that, anon.

> like yeah, no shit, most of us would just walk out the door at the first sign of a bad attitude smartass, you’re not clever for suggesting that

I somehow get a vibe you would not.

>the more interesting discussion centers around how best to handle the situation once you already have your allocation sitting there waiting for you to pick it up in spite of the boutique making you walk barefoot over glass to get it.

That is already losing position. What you do it try not to be in losing position to begin with, as I said before. You don't take disrespect when it is not warranted.

>the fact that you missed this in your grandiose attempt to virtual signal is kinda sad and quite frankly makes you a terrible conversationalist more than anything.

I just red the pasta about guy getting shit on by Rolex store and shared my opinion that this should not happen with a self respecting man.

You got triggered by our conversation anon, that's not on me.

>does not get disrespected when not warranted, keep your self respect.
>N-NO, you don't understand, you see....

Did you get similar experience with the Rolex store as the guy in the pic?

>>17413066
oh look, the AP bootlickers have arrived.
>>17413068
>it is about not getting anyone wipe their shoes on you. (you) should be the person, who cares about that, anon.
and it’s all you care about when it’s the blatantly obvious and there are more interesting discussions to be had. do you ever get tired of hearing yourself talk?
>I somehow get a vibe you would not.
i would and i in fact did when i got dogshit service at a local AP AD. i already implied that earlier, i guess it has to be spelt out loud since subtlety is clearly not your thing.
>That is already losing position. What you do it try not to be in losing position to begin with, as I said before. You don't take disrespect when it is not warranted.
and right away you miss the fucking point. are you incapable of conjecturing hypotheticals or something? are you one of those people that don’t have an inner monologue or struggles to visualize a red apple?
>Did you get similar experience with the Rolex store as the guy in the pic?
i have been to a rolex store to buy my own watch once in my life, indicated my interest on some models, left, and forgot about it because rolexes are boring and i moved on to greener pastures soon after. nothing terribly interesting.

Then why are you so triggered about all of this?

To the situation where guy got shit on, or hypothetical similar situation. No, it is not a good plot for
>interesting discussions to be had

It's a situation, but nothing much can be said apart of
>Don't get shit on. Not worth it.

It's like saying "Lets have an interesting discussion about how to navigate in the situation where you want to date a single mom with 3 kids"

My answer
>Well, this is shit, just don't be in this situation, because this is a generally bad idea

So stop getting all heated up about that.

>>17413089
>Then why are you so triggered about all of this?
because i wanted to have an entertaining discussion about shitty AD behavior and instead got an idiot repeating himself over and over about not doing business with shitty ADs in the first place, as if anyone would bother to even disagree.
>It's like saying "Lets have an interesting discussion about how to navigate in the situation where you want to date a single mom with 3 kids"
yes that could in fact be a very funny hypothetical for discussion, provided all parties involved have some creativity and a sense of humor. clearly that’s not the case here.
>It's a situation, but nothing much can be said
yeah, definitely one of those “people” without inner monologues. have a good day, “person”.

>>17413094
I'm not interested in the discussions about how to get disrespected for your own money in funny quirky way. You got that one right.

Have a good one.

>>17413100
you must be the life of every party you go to.

>>17413085
Wow the heckin angles mean it’s good!

Escapement go brrrrr

>>17412949
kek i hope this is real
what kind of a pushover faggot you have to be to go through something like this
also the audacity of literal retail workers kek

>>17411418
Even the term watch community itself is pretty fucking cringe

>>17413075
>oh look, the AP bootlickers have arrived.

No retard, I don't specially like the brand. But because you don't like AP or any other brand that doesn't mean it's bad, live and let live.

You just need to touch grass.

>>17413194
i dislike AP and the watch (singular lmao) they make, and they have horrible sales reps, so they’re a bad brand in my eyes and i will forever refer to them as such. sounds like you need to touch grass and live and let live with my opinion.

>>17413080
do they still make this one?
so much soul

>>17412890
I have the black dial. 'tis indeed sexo

that seiko mogs it

Nah, this is a poor man cope

stuhrling bad or good?

hi you guys, wanna buy my father a nice watch for his 55 birthday (I'm sure some of you will call it shitter but that's life). Pic related is the one his wife send me as the one he likes to wear most lately (he's got quite a few watches, like to collect them), anyway, can any of you guys tell me what model this watch is - it looks like something I'd like to wear myself.

forgot to mention I'm probably going to get him some tissot, also if any of you care any advice is highly appreciated

>>17413276
I'm a total fucking reatard downloading thumbnails being almost 31yo

>>17413281
He might like a sector dial dress watch

>>17413302
ok, I just had to check what does sector dial dress watch looks like. On top of being a retard I'm also a total noob when it comes to watches - it's just he gave me one of his watches last year and it slowly but steadily gathered my interest. Now I want to buy him something nice and later on buy myself a new watch (maybe automatic) once I get my yearly bonus

Could be a ref 4175/729

Don't get him a tissot that's a downgrade, consider the possibility that you can't afford something that he'd think is cool
