FUCK JANNIES

Pilotfag here. Posted a couple threads ago. I’m upgrading to captain and want to get something nice to commemorate. Should I get a Speedy? I’ve been to a few Rolex ADs in search of a no date sub and they all basically told me to fuck off. Budget $6k

>>17640770
Finally a proper thread. Thank you OP

God I’m hungover.

Any watch that has most, if not all, the following criteria?
>chronograph
>perpetual calendar
>rotating bezel
>moon phase
>tourbillon
>minute repeater
>micro-rotor
>GMT
>big date
>retrograde flyback rattrapante
>deadbeat second
>fusée-and-chain

>>17640809
hungover from blacked porn?

>>17640800
Sneed is a good choice

>>17640809
Whats the point of the massive seconds numbers when it isn't even a chrono?

>>17640817
If one watch could have all of those it'd look like a monstrosity

>>17640833
That's mainly what I want to see, the horrors this combo would produce

>>17640800
i own a speedmaster x-33 and it has a few features that you would probably get some use out of. like UTC clearly displayed as a backdrop to your local time, multiple mission elapsed time which is rather useful when you have multiple stops during a flight, and an 80 decible alarm which is specifically designed to be heard in places such as a cabin (or a space station such as the ISS which is apparently quite noisy).

omega also has the z-33, which according to them is designed for pilots but i don’t know anything about it.

>>17640805
Sure no prob

>>17640829
>>17640869
Thanks bros. How does the Sneedmaster wear? I have a 7" wrist.
I'll go check out an Omega dealer. I've read they're way more friendly and helpful than Rolex dealers. I'm still on the Rolex list (I think), and if they call I will buy. But groveling to wagies for the chance to buy a watch just doesn't sit well with me.

Posted last thread but never got a reply so ill try once more. After any suggestions for a new 22mm strap for this edifice? Probably want to stick with black but i dont really like this current strap

>>17640890
What’s that a Windows 10 lamp?

>post a pic of my Rolies on Tinder
>instantly get more matches
I just got a match with this big titted black queen. Wish me luck bros.

>>17640903
should i post my omega on hinge bros...

>>17640903

Got a fresh crystal on this one. I think it might be running fast so I'm thinking about having it serviced.

>>17640829
yeah speedy is great dont care if "reddit" likes it everyone likes it lol

In the last thread anon posted a pair of Calatrava cufflinks, and I've to admit a taste for cufflinks have been groing inside me in the last couple of months, especially since I know wear a suit daily for work.
Anyone here wears them on a regular basis? Or have some they like a lot?

wtf sapphire glass is $1k extra? and i don't want an exhibition caseback either

>>17640942
Because you're poor lmao

>>17640937
Don't m8
You have watch autism, that's enough
Don't get into cufflink autism, that's too far

>>17640905
I don't thi k gays are that into watches.

>>17640937
Do they tell FUCKING TIME?

>>17640941
I can't believe the knockoff is thinner than the tudor.

>>17640963
Some do tell FUCKING TIME.

Black chicks are stupid, loud and insufferable.
But I just love chocomilkers so much.

>>17640968
Finally, a watch for the nigglet who likes women watches 36mm and below

>>17640942

The movement of a Speedy is beautiful. Get a exhibition caseback. And anything else than sapphire will scratch much easier.

>>17640780
Wish it came with regular lugs. In 10 years when the bracelet is worn out there will be nothing to replace it.

I hate these 70s/80s case designs. Timex Q is the same shit. At least have the balls to make a true integrated bracelet, but this
>you can put on any strap but it'll look like shit :^)
design sucks.

>>17640951
Is pens autism equally bad?

>>17640991
No that’s just gay

GO ON SALE YOU STUPID SLUT LET ME WASTE MY MONEY

>>17640903
MOAR

>>17640981
I feel like an exhibition caseback on a tool watch, even if no one is using it as such in 2023, is a bit tacky.

>>17640985
>In 10 years
bro it's 400 bucks buy it with a replacement bracelet if you really believe the novelty won't have worn out 10 years from now

>>17640999
How do I read the hour on this?

>>17640968

>>17640920
Nice. Looks really beautiful.

>>17640962
Come on. The average gay is much more likely to be into watches than a woman. Hell the average gay is much more likely to be into fashion and watches than the average straight male.

>>17640942
Why would you even buy a watch that actively promotes the myth that men went to the moon?

>>17641017
b-but we really went there, we just lost the technology

Any other watches with this kind of case shape? The only one i can think of is the Oris ProPilotX. This is 36mm btw.

>>17640941
I hate myota and seiko movements, if those shitters started using sellita or valjoux they would become undisputed

>Sellita Movement Makers: A Little Bit of China In Switzerland
>another douche post
into the trash it goes

Why did watches get so big? Men's wrists didn't actually grow bigger right?

Post one-and-done watches for people who are not looking for collectins or specialty pieces.

>>17641094
>Men's wrists didn't actually grow bigger right?

heh

>>17641094
>Men's wrists didn't actually grow bigger right?
Anon...

>>17641094
They went from utilitarain tools to jewelry, so bigger is mo better.
The watch world is very slow to adapt, so a decade ago 43mm+ watches were the norm.
We as customers are shrinking back nowadays, but the market is half-asleep, so you get things like oversized Longines recreations where you can feel that the proportions just do not fit. Among others.
picrel is something like 32mm in diameter

>>17641099
>They went from utilitarain tools to jewelry, so bigger is mo better.

shouldn't it ironically be the other way around? when they were actually used as tools wouldn't you want them to be big for easier readability?

>>17641103
Context, I guess, but still funny you should bring that up.
Beobachtungsuhren being 57mm being worn over a jacketsleeve, and the James Bond Dr. No rollie diver Rollie being 38mm. Deck watches being actual utensils in large wooden boxes with gyroscopes and whatnot.

Apologies for redundant text while drunkposting.

What are some masonic watches?

I have full bar and you are welcome to anything you fancy.

Sell the bar buy a real watch retard lmofag.

>>17641119
Upon further consideration, yes. I am in a predicament
36mm Stowa is my grail, poorfag as it may sound to some, but I just cannot choose between roman and arabic dials. The arabic numerals and railroad reminding me of WWII RAF pilot waches, SEX, the roman numereals and small seconds bringing in even more class to the overal package.

copped a 1926 yesterday

feels good

>>17641129
>>17641129

arabic nicer

>>17641129
JUST get a job tardo??

>>17641136
I could get both of them rn, Im not a poorfag, what does that solve? This isnt Zalando where you send back something that doesnt fit.

>>17641137
Then buy them? What are you babling abbout?

>>17641138
There is no x-day unsattisfied return policy, I woudl have to flip the other one on carousell, watchfinder or some other hassle and that would be already throwing money out as none of those would fetch the buying price.

P.S. post actual watch images ITT, you inbred faggots

>>17641143

>there is no x-day unsattisfied (sic) return policy

>>17641143
Retard who invents his own problems. WAAH WAAH I AM RICH BUT I DON'T WANT TO "THROW MONEY AWAY" TO GET WHAT I WANT WAAAH

If you were rich you could get unlimited money by investing.

>>17641151
Never did I say I was RICH, by any means. I implied I have enough disposable income to buy the two at the same time.
>>17641150
Whats the deal? I live in the sticks where I have no shops available to try on stuff first hand.


You homos are STILL not posting images of watches on an image board post dedicated to watches.

>>17641156

it's like jazz, it's about the watches we don't post

>>17641156
>Whats the deal? I live in the sticks where I have no shops available to try on stuff first hand

you sure you want a watch instead of say, a tractor?

>>17641159
I have all the things I need, thats why Im shopping watches.

I watched too much producer michael and now all I want to buy is a g-schock

>>17640770
I know this thread is mostly about wrist watches, but does anyone have some recommendations or inspo for cool desk clocks?
I want something up to 10cm in diameter under my monitor but everything I can find on etsy looks really quaint or kitschy.

>>17641071
Some of them do offer sellita and other higher end swiss movements. I think for most of their watches they offer an option to upgrade to a swiss movement for about $200 or so extra. Maybe that can be worth it to you if you want a """"rep"""" that's not actually a rep so you can at least cope about how hard you need to cope, but I think a lot of people would say going up that much higher in price kind of defeats the purpose of buying Chinese shitters. When you start looking at paying $500-700 for a watch you start seeing actual Swiss brands with some real pedigree to them and the aliexpress shit just intellectually speaking gets harder to justify.

>>17641177
Sinn NaBos are overpriced as shit., along with Bell+Ross clocks.

>>17641191
Forgot a pic of an example. On their website and on aliexpress it's common to see a drop down menu to pick what movement you want and it adjusts the price accordingly.

>>17640809
Good to see you again, boozy Hamilton anon. I hope you’re well

>>17641177
it would be embarassing to get anything but a JLC atmos

>>17640991
It’s bad yeah. Pens just get lost and are kind of fedora-tier. Collecting watches + fragrances is the way to go.

>>17641118
I like these but the bracelet has no micro adjusts and I’ve bought and sold a few Oris watches already. They’re in that pseudo-luxury tier between Seiko and Omega that’s better to just avoid altogether

>>17641139
Well at least they got 9 right

>>17641209
This dude finna get robbed by a black prostitute lmao

>>17641241
the real issue with that watch is the 44mm case
other than that pseudo-luxury is the best bang for your buck, the downside is that resale value is abysmal so for sure pick your watch properly and don't buy and sell oris all the time that's just asking for trouble

>>17641248
LMFAO

>>17641209
this is what people tell you to buy rolex for

>>17641237
A watch is accepted as jewelry, a fountain pen is just pompous. Normies don't care about your watch but if they see you writing with a fountain pen, they'll think you're a weirdo. Plus, if you don't have impeccable handwriting, then you look doubly stupid.

which strap is best for everyday wear? running, swimming.

I'm looking for a watch that kinda has an 80s/90s american vibe. Like Miami vice or outrun if that makes sense. Preferably not too expensive. What would you recommend?

>>17640770
The poorfag guide is severely out of date.
Looking for a GADA watch for around 200, is the SRPE still recommended?

>>17641248
>>17641254

I'm gonna burst a massive load between these chocomilkers and there's nothing you can do to stop me.

What are some good (but not horribly expensive) world timer watches? I basically just want one watch, and I think it would be cool if it was a world timer.

>>17641328
The tiny central hand shows the month, in this case December, and the leap year indicator is at the back.

>>17641333
I see, pretty cool

Perpetual calendars are stupid. Who the fuck needs a reminder to know which MONTH it is? Even a day window is bullshit.
These just add a level of complexity to the movement, making it more likely to break.

>>17640809
kys

What are you wearing this lovely Sunday?

>>17641320
I think this is the most aesthetic perpetual calendar ever made but the price is just outrageous.

>>17641353

>>17641353
GOOD MORNING SIR

>>17641320
Any watches like this that cost a normal amount?

>>17641342
why does your laptop display it if you don't need to know it then sweety?

>>17641373
No lol. A perpetual calendar takes extreme autism to make and an in-line perpetual calendar is essentially a novel complication, I don’t know of any others that exist. Sad.

>>17641376
I don't care about the nerd shit I mean just the looks.

>>17641425
a lot of people come into this thread asking for a watch under 200€ at which point they should be trying to lift themselves out of poverty, not looking at jewelry
so without a budget there's not much we can do, I guess that's why the other anon showed you the citizen which admittedly doesn't look much like the PP bu that's what a couple of hundreds get you
again, my rec is the longines which is quite close

>>17641425
I got you anon.

>Watches are stupid. Who the fuck needs a relict of the past to know which time it is?

I used to have a small collection of cheap ones. Nothing fancy. I'm actually in the process of selling them to buy only two pairs of better made ones. One gold, one silver.

I'm looking for a cheap, small dress watch with a stunning dial, like pic related. The only issue is that I want quartz and not automatic or manual.
Is there anything as pretty as this but quartz?

>>17641626
I know it's a LARP but that sounds like the worst job in the world. It must be physically painful to have to tell dozens of people each day that no actually they can't buy a watch and that they need to spend money on bullshit before they get the privilege to buy a Rolex.

>>17641531
Laughable.
Watch makers are so terrified of Rolex supremacy they'll come up with the most grotesque designs only to avoid comparison.

>>17641562
All of your watches are cope, to be completely honest.

>being paid to tell people to fuck off

Basically.

>>17641625
horosho, tovarysh

>>17641655
Okay, I'll bite. Are the waitlists real or is it just something you tell punters so they fuck off? When you guys get a new shipment of watches in, you just call your best clients and ask if they want them right?

>>17641579
imagine the smell

>>17641655
Ok so when you go to a Rolex boutique even the presumably minimum wage security guards are wearing Daytonas and yacht masters. Does staff have to return the watches the wear at the end of their shift?

what do you think of seiko wearers

>>17641670
Both new or old customers need to buy something to get something. Spend disincentivizes resale.
Rolex dislikes resale.
Old customers need to buy less since we trust them not to flip product.

>>17641678
To cut corners and cheapen costs while still charging the same to the customer.
This is why A. Lange & Söhne is a far better fine watchmaker now.

>>17641686
>Flippers need to buy less since we trust them not to flip product.

>>17641686

lol...LMAO

Any idea what this watch is?

>>17641672
We have armed coppers. Not silly "security".
We own our watches. Pay is good.

>>17641682
I don't.

>>17641688

They wear the product in often, and if they get bored of it, they sell it back to us.
If they stop wearing it in, we stop selling.
They always wear it in.

>>17641698
>they sell it back to us.
then what?

>>17641688
The sale assistant at my AD told me that one of the most annoying part of the job is to deal with people who succeed to get their names on the waiting list but don't actually have the money.
Apparently there are tons of retards out there who walk into an AD and ask for a Submariner or a DJ, but once they get the call they would ask for extra time only to back down several weeks later.

Honestly I don't really blame ADs for selling to known customers and flippers. It's an effective way to have a steady cash inflow.

I just wish Rolex would stop this AD distribution thing and open a webstore at this point. One watch per customer. First come first served.

>>17641695
Many AD's have been shut down over resale to grey market. Most remaining AD's are legitimate.

>>17641704
We make a lot of money. We don't give them more than MSRP back.
And the next time they want something, they need to spend to get that too. The point is they're rich and want toys, and we prevented grey dealers from making any money. We did our part.

>>17641711
>the most annoying part of the job is to deal with people who succeed to get their names on the waiting list but don't actually have the money
Pick up the phone and call the next person, how the fuck is this "annoying"?

You feel like you’re winning against the grey market? If I want a basic bitch Sub, why on earth would a normal person waste time and money with you buying ladies DJs or other bullshit instead of just paying the $2k or whatever grey market premium?

>>17641718
It's because Rolex AD employees are actually weak bitches.

>>17641537

This, but unironically

>>17641720
Why not a Casio or G-Shock then?

>>17641711
How does it work if you tell them you need more time? Do you just tell them to give you a month or two, or they just call the next guy on the list and give you the next call?

>>17641731
Those gold tone 80s looking digital casio are hip with zoomers. Young women don’t give a shit about watches or even really if you have money at that point in their life.

Because if you call 6 people that don't want to buy a ridiculously overpriced watch from you that represents losing 6 fat commission checks. They're sales people that get money based on how many pieces they sell, they're not like McDonald's clerks that get paid the same even if nobody comes in and orders a burger.

>>17641731
Just choose anything blacks and Arabs wear on Instagram, AP, Patek, Rolex, etc.

>>17641724
It's fun to catch flippers.

Most buyers are not normal people. They're wealthy, and they don't want to buy another man's used/fake watch. That market is large enough to capture our whole inventory.

>>17641725
Removed from the list. Enjoy your Tudor.

>>17641753
Don't go in unless you actually have the money.
Most AD's dislike time-wasters and they will never call you again.

>>17641724
Some guys have this weird sense of pride about not going grey and “getting the call XD”. I’ve gotten two Rolexes gray and paid basically retail + tax with maybe a few hundred extra on top at most. Seems like a small price to pay to not have to “build a relationship”.

yeah if I was to spend that cash on a lolex I sure as hell wouldn't buy from some random shitter except if it was half price which is never gonna happen ofc, grey buyers are retards and i don't get you/it

You may have never noticed before, but the two metals are different colors. Suits and shirts also come in a variety of colors.

How the fuck can I buy a watch without having to buy a bunch of dumb bullshit I’m not interested in? I just want a fucking OP or a no date sub and ultimately a pepsi GMT. Not interested in grey market because I want new and don’t want to worry about fakes.

>>17641789
Aren't the metals of the cufflinks supposed to match the metal of the watch? Unless he has a gold watch, I still don't see the point. Just one real silver or steel pair is enough.

>>17641626
Also one more question, why is it that when I go into an AD they tell me they only get like 6 watches per year yet you can find 800+ brand new unworn with box and papers on chrono24 for 2x msrp. There’s no way it’s people buying watches and reselling. Is Rolex diverting shipments to these online stores? Something is very fucky about Rolex, I suspect some Jewish tricks are occurring.

>>17641762
>that represents losing 6 fat commission checks

Only if you have more watches than waitlist. Else you just call the next 6 people.

>>17641836
I wear both a silver and a gold watch, one on each wrist. That's why I need matching sets of every pair of cufflinks I buy in both metals, one of each color for each cuff.

>>17641823
>There’s no way it’s people buying watches and reselling.

Why? Chrono24 is just a platform for individual sellers

>>17641204
I've got this on my SARB017, has a nice tinge of red that compliments the green.

>>17641848
But are you also wearing a silver AND gold belt buckle, or are you just a low life peasant?

I usually don't like Datejust, but this one is nice.

>>17641811
Just send your SA an email once every few months to let them know you're still interested. It could be 2 words.
This should work for most OP's and DJ's.

>>17641823
People vastly underestimate how many watches are sold yearly. It's a drop in the bucket.
Rolex is not selling directly to grey.
They're good people.

Chrono24 is mostly large dealers. Individual sellers make up a minute percentage of sales.

>>17641862
I don't wear cufflinks, and even if I did I wouldn't wear them with a Rolex.

How do you guys adjust the fit of your bracelet to get it the way you like it? How tight or loose do you make it and where do you try to make it sit on your wrist?

>>17641874
>I don't wear cufflinks

>>17641875
I just put it on and take out or remove links until it feels good

I wasn't sure I was going to like the yellow Casioak (but it had to be the yellow one with the most readable dial). But I think it's starting to grow on me. Especially when the sun is out, looks vibrant.

>>17641903
Absolutely disgusting

>>17641941
what am I supposed to look at?

>>17641948
The integration, or lack of it, between the bracelet and the endlink

>>17641948
Lugs and bracelet links don't end in the same place. See picrel of how a watch case and bracelet should fit.

>>17641941
Never noticed that, that would drive me crazy.

Where can I get something like your pic, for the memes ? I've seen Rolex lookalikes with customizable text on Aliexpress, but I don't think that I can customize everything like on that pic.

>>17641875
You are having these problems because bracelets are inherently uncomfortable. There is no good fit for a bracelet. Usually the fit that makes the watch sit nice and centered on your wrist is too tight at a certain hour of the day. If you make it looser, the watch won't sit as nicely, and as you walk it might slide down over the wrist bone. All the people you see with bracelets have spent years forcing themselves to tolerate such an anti-ergonomic solution. Almost every time I spend some hours with a normie wearing a watch on a bracelet, they take it off and put it on the table at a certain point.
Just use rubber/nylon/perlon/leather

>>17641681
Hmm, these look quality but a bit too rugged, I was thinking a bit more sleek and formal, in a darker color
>>17641854
Pretty cool, I'd go for a cleaner brown but I really like the style

Verdict on Citizen /fa/?

>>17642010
not in focus

>>17642010
A much better buy than Seiko these days, although Citizen makes a lot of fucking ugly watches.

>>17641496
gonna have to go for fashion brands for this
look at shit like Reymond Veil and such, there's bound to be couple of designs that would fit the ask

>>17642010
that is the only pussy you will ever get if you wear citizen

>>17641980

>protip you can't

What Seiko was in the 1980s (inventive, rugged, manly, experimental, tools, GADA, affordable) is what Citizen is today

I'm literally wearing the exact same watch as you right now. Citizen is a good entry level brand, and they some cool stuff. I just wish they more automatics instead of Eco Drives.

>>17642122
Do you also fancy brown kushen?

>>17642122
The few automatics they still make use off the shelf basic 3rd party movements. And they're overpriced. It's pretty frustrating, it's like they are trying to bolster their case for doubling down on ecodrive by deliberately making automatics look unappealing.

>>17641990
I have most of my bracelets adjusted to a position where I can slide them up my arm slightly and they hold in position with moisture from my skin and surface tension, but I can also slide them down my wrist and they can then loosely hang around my wrist over the wrist bone and peek out under my sleeve if I need that. It can take some fiddling and trial to get it right, and depending on the shape of your forearm it may not work well for you, but it's pretty nice if you can get it right.

>>17642122
>>17642128
Vintage Citizen automatics is where the goods are.

>Pelagius 39
>grade 3 titanium
>$700 chink made watch
>grade 5 titanium
I know why they did this, because its big brother Rolex has started using grade 5. It’s still irritation as fuck to find the watch I truly wanted only to find this flaw. I shouldn’t care about how easily it scratches, I just wish they’d actually used the best materials like they promised.

>>17642128
I've been looking at the nb1050 and nb1060, their movement is a Miyota 9011, and Miyota is owned by Citizen.
