Thoughts?

>>17709814
Suggest me a watch that will make me look like a huge horse's ass
Money is no object

I can already tell this will be a sad and terrible thread.

Daily reminder that If you want a Seiko or Omega where the dial, indices, lume, chapter ring, hands and bezel inlay are perfectly aligned, you have to buy a cheap fake
pic related is 6000 plus tax plus tip. Absolutely disgusting

>>17709828
>black display with green numbers
interesting I suppose, is this something new or have they done this b4? looks better than the regular displays they usually use
ugly lugs and strap

>>17709858
>filtered by reflections yet again
have you ever handled a real watch in your miserable existence?

>>17709858
Reminder that if you want a Seiko due to its reputation online of relatively inexpensive, tough and well made watches then you're better off buying Citizen where even the cheapest diver's bezels and chapter rings line up and accuracy amongst the lower spec calibres beats Seiko's movements who charge more for inaccurate crap.

>>17709864
Cheap 1000 dollar shitter is one thing, that seiko "X" is 6 grand, yet the fit and finish feels like 60 dollar mall shitter. Why are they so bad?
I agree on citizen. The chronomaster i tried on was of better quality than any seiko i ever saw

>>17709837
Let me introduce you to the ATTILA VIP S-Force.

100% 38K Gold, the face is made from ancient Jade straight from the lost tomb of chinese Emperor Qin Shi.
Rolexfags will seethe.

>>17709871
>big date
rolex can only dream about complications like these

>>17709860
New set thats very legible

>>17709877
ugh, too bad about that first gen subdial
>sunday is the first day of the week
disgusting

>>17709877
what's up with all the Casioaks?

>shitter on the shitter
what are you wearing today, anon?
>nowatches need not reply, your seething is known

>>17709876
There were rumors that they filed a patent for a big date complication.

>>17709899
>I know my watch is garbage so you can't make fun of me for it, hahahahahahahahahahahaha

>>17709905
>no watch
lmao

>>17709905
why does my watch make you seethe so much? did San Martin fuck your mom or did you pay 3k for a tudor ranger?

>>17709899
I'm down to two watches, this is one of them.
I cured myself from consoooming shitters. (But I was never so bad that I actually considered buying an AliExpress watch.)

>>17709927
This watch is 100% a copy of the Black Bay 54.

>>17709876
I'd prefer a 3 digit date complication so I can directly tell how far through the year we are.

>>17709941
Are watches made for people who can't remember things farther back than the current day?

>>17709837
Rolex

>>17709959
all the best ones, yes

>>17709927
nice replica, almost fooled me

>>17709980
pure cope

>>17709969
The elite can't afford the bandwidth to remember things unless they are absolutely mission critical.

Asking again because I'm still undecided, which one of these should I get?
>inb4 get the one you like best
I like them all equally, albeit for different reasons.

Giga poorfag. I'm looking for a better paying job. I'm also looking for a new watch. I don't care if it is quartz. It needs to be under 37 mm cause I'm also a wristlet. The timex easy reader looks horrible. I know my options are very limited on a budget but is there a watch that looks similar to pic related within the same price range? (100 USD on amazon).

>>17710044
don't get the rose gold one, it's kind of gaudy
the first one if you want to be more low key, the third one if you want everyone to immediately know you're wearing a ROLEXROLEXROLEX and you have the gold teeth and suspicious car dealership career to match

>>17710044
None of them. But if you must, I'd go with the green palm dial.

>>17710046
maybe a Seiko SUR315? or some other Timex or Casio. really depends on what you can get a good deal on
but honestly at that price and size I'd just get a vintage soviet dress watch

>>17710044
I like the two-tone yellow gold and steel. That's a classic Datejust combination, but it also feels a little like an old man's watch.

The green dial is the most youthful but green dials are hot right now and could look dated in a short time.

>>17710046
timex marlin

>>17710044
right one, the palm leaves are so fucking stupid and was a gateway for those retarded autism rolexes they released this year
green will be ass in 5 years too, especially on a white metal case

>>17709814
I have committed heresy.

>>17710044
cant afford a Day Date?
stop coping and save up for the watch you really want

>>17710065
>>17710074
Colors don't go out of style. They're colors.
What go out of style are shapes, layout, sizes, finishing, etc.

Is this the watch thread?

>>17710090
wrong

>>17710091

>>17710101
Okay.
Here's a bunch of stone dial watches from the 70s, all in the same style.
Do the green ones look more dated than the others to you?

>>17710107
No.

>>17710107
no, that's the point
3rd watch and everything to the right of the hand looks dated as fuck, green is in now, but in 5 years it won't be and look dated
just like that tiffagy blue looks bad now, not that it ever looked good

>>17710111
Stupid comment/10

>>17710111
The ones that look the less dated are:
2, 3, 4 and 5
Because of the simplicity of the case shape. These could have been made today (in fact they look very similar to the Cartier Tank Must).
I also like 6 and 9 but the case is very obviously from the 70s.

>>17709814
My grandma was a hoarder. Recently found this watch among her things. Anyone know what year it's most likely from?

>>17710133
Back. Says Bulova. 14kt gold case. Number is A67186 and below that it says M6

>>17710136
>>17710133
1966

Got my first G Shock yesterday. GW-5000U. Nice beater watch, made in Japan. Planning on using this for hiking/shooting/golf/shtf/etc

>>17710156

Hands down the best square imo

>>17710070
This one isn't <37 mm

I'm a mason bros

>>17710156
Nice. Were you complaining about the weight of the DW5600? How do you like the feel of the GW5000?

>>17710194
Why is it so shitty? 2000 times recast pewter?

>>17710204
>t. seething little chud who will never be a mason

>>17710194
what's the story behind this thing? some kind of shoddily made custom job for a freemason?

>>17710089
>Day Date
I don't want a Day-Date, the two tone YG Datejust is my loudness/gaudiness limit, and even that's pushing it.
I really like the Datejust.

>>17710189
I like it so far. It really feels like the Glock of watches.
>>17710201
Not me, but I did also buy a 5600 off Amazon to compare. The 5000 is absolutely worth the extra scratch. 5610 is nice too but I wanted the steel core and screw down caseback.
It’s about 20 grams heavier than the 5600 because of the steel core, yet still very lightweight and comfy to wear while feeling much more substantial.

>christopher ward
what sort of retarded brand name is that? some of their watches are cool, but I aint never buying a watch called christopher ward holy fuck

Can anyone comment on the quality of MWC? I've read people complain online about condensation getting into the watch - all I want is a cheap military replica, would I be smarted to spend a little more and go marathon etc.?

>>17709899
same as every day for the past 6 years
my skx007

>>17710237
get CWC retard this is a scam brand

Are Timex field watches decent for something on a budget that looks military/outdoor-ish?
I like the way the Scouts and the Expedition lines look.
Marathons, Bulovas and whatnot are fairly expensive where I live.
I'm either going for a TIMEX or a Boldr Venture.

>>17710261
no

>>17710264
No what? No they're not decent? As compared to what, a Rolex or an Omega or no as in it'll explode on my wrist and kill my firstborn?
I'm not pretentious and I don't wear things to "flex" or overcompensate, so keep that in mind when I ask are they decent.

>>17710265
they are okay, but have quality control issues so the seconds hand might not allign, but otherwise get one on sale only and enjoy

>>17710271
cheers bud
I'm going with the Timex Expedition North Solar, The Boldr Venture or the Bulova Hack watch

>>17710114
>t. green watch haver
catch me in 5 years, it will be 2 years since you have sold your green watch

>>17710232
literally the same as patek phillipe, vacheron constantin, audemars piguet and numerous others

>>17710273
just realised you are talking about a $150 timex
whats ur budget mang, I would spend 50 doler max on a timex

>>17709927
Floating m

>>17710133
>>17710136
Accutron is based. Grandma had good taste.
>>17710261
Timex expedition was my first watch as a kid. It ticks loud as fuck but other than that it’s not bad. Definitely wouldn’t wear one as an adult.

>>17710282
>Christopher Ward is justasgood
what is this cope

>>17710241
since your hardlex is so fucked, have you considered changing it to a sapphire one?

>>17710291
retarded nigger the original post is shitting on the brand name, kill yourself you dumb fucking cunt faggot

>>17710204
>>17710218
It's sterling silver dumb chud peasants

Poorfag general. Extremely grim. Sort yourselves out.

>>17710293
what do you mean, its perfect

but ye, when I got the first few scratches I thought I said to myself I wouldnt change it because I remember when and where each happened and it brought back good memories.
now I look at the crystal from time to time and notice more and more that I do not know when from and it made me rethink, but ultimately I decided to keep it stock
I think it has character

>>17710298
>the brand name is justasgood

>>17710307
Based, fuck poors. I pay more in taxes than most of you useless eaters make. Genetic dead ends.

>>17710317
based, I too larp on my tunasian fishing bait weaving forum

>>17710282
All these prestigious hundred years old brands have Swiss French founders. These names evoke classiness, refinement and elegance.
Christopher Fart is some irrelevant anglo. The name doesn't sound classy at all.

>>17710311
Yeah, that'd just piss me off. A replacement is like 10 bucks, dude.

>>17710322
The swiss watchmaking business took off because the cost of labor in British Empire was too high and their exports were too expensive.

They are the original chinks.

>>17710328
fuck am I gonna replace it with sapphire for sure, byt then tbey will have to open it and if I replace anything it will be the bezel insert, but the lume wont match up

lmao it doesn't even look bad Chang really is the best

>>17710338
Yes and peasants used to eat caviar and foie gras 150 years ago and now these are rich people food.

>>17710311
>>17710341
leave the bezel, that has character and doesn't interfere with the function, while the crystal obstructs the time
I like scratches gauges and shit like that, except on the crystal, because you wouldn't leave any on an acrylic one and you wouldn't get any on a sapphire one, mineral is just dogshit however you look at it, be it pristine or fucked up
>t. got a huge scratch 2 weeks into a cocktail time
fuck mineral

>>17710322
it's beyond parody how vapid and pretentious watch enthusiasts can get, lmao

>>17710341
You could do both at once. These days you can get a ceramic bezel for like 10 bucks too, maybe a bit more if you want all the white bits lumed.

My budget is 170 eurodollars, but everything in Europe is overpriced. I tried ordering a 178 euro Bulova Hack and DHL was trying to charge me 68 euro extra of "importing fees". Eat my ass, now I'm out of options pretty much.
I don't want another Seiko 5 man.

You should unironically try golf then.
Niggers, Jews and poors are gatekept out of the course. You’re encouraged to drink alcohol and smoke cigars while you play. Smashing around in a golf cart is fun. Boomers are aging out so you see less and less of them. I’ve been golfing since I was a kid and it’s a good time with frens

Nah, you wouldn’t as long as you dress nice and act like you belong. I know golf has a reputation of being pretentious and snooty but it’s unironically a great fucking time. I get hammered, drive a cart around and larp as John Daly and no one bats an eye.

I have an f91w and a gshock 5600db. I had a Seiko 5 and an Orient Kamasu but got tired of them and wanted another "inexpensive" field watch. I don't see the point in paying more than 200 eurodollars for a watch if I enjoy the look of ones that are priced below that and most prices above that seem to always attract overcompensating weirdoes or assholes. In my anecdotal experience of course.

Chr.Ward isn't even a watchmaker; just a random bong importer of cheap tshirts from bangladesh with two schlub bong friends who had even dumber names than him so they had to name their spontaneous and ill conceived operation after him. He's not even part of the company anymore he left lmao.

Modern makers like Parmigianini, Journe, Grönefeld, Habring, Smith etc., are all at least named after an actual watchmaker.
"Christopher Ward" has no meaning. They might as well have chosen a random word like Rolex, Omega, Timex, Accurist etc., did rather than name their shit after some nobody. A random guy's name is offputting.

They join the shit-hallowed ranks of Maurice Lacroix, Daniel Wellington and Frederique Constant; no horological significance, just names chosen purely to ape brands old and new who are named after guys that actually made watches rather than people who imported cobbled together shit from chinawitzerland and marketed it as
>affordable luxury!
in malls or in direct to consumer catalogs. Made to fool mouthbreathing mallboomers out of their money.
Maurice Lacroix is rumored to be named after the ceo's old janitor at his previous office lol. Why the fuck would anyone want to spend 2grand on a watch named after a fucking shit scraping janny?

Just choose an abstract name ffs. Giving it a full or double-barreled person's name with no meaning behind it in an attempt to cheaply emulate and evoke the clout of PP, VC, AP, JLC makes it sound dumb and is just as bad as ripping off some ancient dead brand name. At least the latter have some basis behind their name choice though.
There's probably better names on aliexpress shitters.

Christopher Ward knew they fucked up when the eponymous co-founder left and they had to rename it "Chr.Ward", like that's any better.
They're too invested in the dumb so it's just the catfood brand logo for now.
Let that be a lesson: names are important, fuck up with the name and you taint the whole brand forever.

>>17710475
>Why the fuck would anyone want to spend 2grand on a watch named after a fucking shit scraping janny?
why would anyone spend 20 grand on a watch from a brand named after a watchmaker long dead that's now managed by a luxury conglomerate?

>>17710495
i'd take the souless dead enslaved watchmaker name over the janny pooman thanks

it sucks that metals (when not coated) can only be so few colors. silver, yellow, red, and anywhere in between.
imagine if there were black, blue, green, and purple metals, that could safely be alloyed to be turned into watch parts.

>>17710475

>haha le rich people are so stupid for spending half of my annual earnings on a single watch xD I'm smarter than these idiots lmao
I'm so tired of poorfags pretending not to understand why some people can spend insane amount of money on a watch.
And YES you are pretending. There are countless examples of poorfags winning the lottery who end up ruined 2 years later because they spent it all on Ferraris and Gucci shoes.
Face it : YOU HAVE luxury taste too. You either refuse to accept it or - even worse - you're too dumb to realize it.
One of my friends made fun of me for spending 10k on a Swiss shitter. He has a 5k gaming PC, a 2k VR headset, and a shit ton of video games crap in his house. My gf has no problem spending 5k on a one week trip. I know people who DONATE thousands to fucking charity. People take loans just to flex on their friends with an expensive car.
But somehow spending 10k on a Rolex (THAT HOLDS ITS VALUE) is fucking ridiculous because "DURRR yOuR pHoNe TeLlS tHe TiMe ToO".

Yeah, I'm going to have to go with nothing. None of these brands have ever produced a wearable watch.

Now that the dust has well and truly settled, how is this viewed? I remember everyone universally shitting on it when they released it and then covid happened and I never followed up.
Has there been an about-face for this line or has it just been forgotten, intentionally wiped from the collective memory?
Why do companies use that awkward placement for the date window? Breguet did the same thing with the latest Type XX. It's fucking retardedly fugly.

>>17710622
>He's laughing at you because his large purchases have some actual value
>gaymen shit pc and gear
>actual value
You're fucking trolling right? That's the biggest waste of money imaginable because it depreciates on a yearly guaranteed basis. It's literally better to buy an expensive car, it depreciates less and never loses all its value (hardware does).

That guy might be an idiot for believing a 10k Rolex is special. To someone like me with a lot of income, I can buy that without blinking (but not on a yearly basis because it'd be blowing money out the door). I don't have to, save up, or any shit like that. Money just comes in.

But he's totally right about the watch retaining a lot if not all its value, and having the possibility to increase. The only reason idiots laugh at expensive watches is they don't understand the market. Watches are tangible assets now, like it or not.

To allow the 3 o'clock marker to be on the dial. And sometimes because there's a sub register at that position.

Yes it's fucking shit and I'd rather they leave the date out, whether it's a chronograph or not. No date watches are desirable. Only pilots watches truly must have a date. Divers can optionally have one. Chronographs (when made for motor racing or space travel) shouldn't.

>>17710560
I was challenging the idea that "heritage" is worth a 10x price increase when the people who made it are long dead and nowadays it's really just a marketing gimmick for Richemont's advertising department.
I have a lot more respect for a watch made by a watchmaker without much prestige but who's actually alive than a watch with a cute history from half a century ago that's since been produced in the millions by an army of factory drones.
On the other hand I see no issue with someone like you who just buys stuff because he wants something nice and expensive. Don't imply your rolex has more soul than some random christopher ward though.

>>17710632
The case itself on those is pretty neat, with the hollowed out lugs and whatnot. But that inner bezel thing just makes the whole watch look cheap.

>>17710633
Hardware has value right now, if he wants to play the latest goyslop at 240hz 4k, he needs half a dozen 4090s. If he doesn't want to drive around in a fancy far, it's wasted money.

I can understand these purchases if you're making 200k a year and it's pocket change, it's still sad that you're getting fleeced by kikes, but at that point it's like wasting money on shitty chain coffee. Buying something because it's an "asset" is retarded, the market could fall apart tomorrow. Nobody is impressed by a Rolex, they just feel embarrassed for you for wasting money on what is essentially just a faggy gold chain for your wrist. Hell, at least gold has intrinsic value.

Everything can have value right now. That doesn't mean it has "value". The experience you have playing videogames is a complete waste of time and everybody who isn't a manchild knows it. I used to play them too and I don't regret stopping.

>Buying something because it's an "asset" is retarded, the market could fall apart tomorrow.

>Buying shares because they're an "asset" is retarded, the market could fall apart tomorrow.
Tell that to people who bought Google in the late 90s you fucking moron. Are you employed, do you hold a degree? Because this is the kind of talk I would expect from someone who hasn't even gone to college yet or maybe is just finishing his undergrad.

Grow the fuck up. Money well spent is items that hold their value or experiences that add to your life. Videogames and hardware aren't either of those.

the poverty mentality is spending 10k on wrist jewelry over a car or nice vacation. luxury watches are for people who can already afford everything else. if you need to baby your watch and worry about it as an "investment", it's simply beyond your means. if your friends are shocked at the price of your watch, it's also beyond your means and beyond your social status.

Ikr? Christopher Wand would have been much better

It seems like almost all of the more common consumer level automatic watches have about 40 hours power reserve, do all the luxury brands generally tend to have much more than that? As far as I can see most of the latest rolexes have 70-80 hour power reserve and still have 28k beat frequency.

Presage (got rebranded as cocktail time) are a 500-1000$ watches.
3000$ is grand seiko territory.

>>17710839
You know what stinks? Pretentiousness. Seiko charge for the quality, swiss mountain jews charge you for the perceived prestige not actually present in the product.

When seiko makes an enamel watch it's 1000$ because it was actually difficult to make

When some swiss fucks make an enamel watch it's 100 000 because DUDE IT'S SWISS ENAMEL FOLDED BY HAND OVER 1000 TIMES DID YOU KNOW WE GROW OUR SWISS WATCHMAKERS FOR 50 YEARS FEEDING THEM FINEST CHEESE BEFORE THEY COULD WORK FOR A 1000 HOURS TO MAKE SUCH A WATCH
and then it looks uglier than a seiko, runs worse too.

>>17710844
>spring drive movement

>regular seiko branding

Ok that's one actually bad idea on their part.

>>17710815
seiko's sub-brand pricing segmentation gets really fucked up occasionally

there's spring drive prospexes that cost like 5k and presages that cost like 3k, i feel like it should be a clean price segmentation between essentials > five/presage > prospex > weird re-releases like kings > grands?

how long until we get like a 2.5k seiko five with -30+45 movement?

I heard they released something branded KING SEIKO quite recently and it was basically a premium seiko 5.

Yes, the Japanese can't into marketing.
They are horrible at everything to do with branding and all.

I still can't get over the Citizen, some of their watches are fucking cool, i'd gradly get some of them but you know what puts me off? CITIZEN.
Then have 5000$ watches that are branded with the same name as a 20$ calculator.

Citizen THE CITIZEN are branded just citizen written in the same font as it is on the calculator, and THE CITIZEN part is signified with a fat and ugly fuckin eagle that ruins the dial.

It seems like only the top level luxury brands can force themselves to limit dial text.
While I'm not a fan of the watch, overall, I appreciate that Omega was able to keep dial text to a minimum on their Heritage Seamaster 300 and put all the co-axial master chronometer nonsense on the back. (picrel. if you're the anon who posted this, I'm not sorry for stealing your image.)

Each of the four participants is individually hand sculpted in gold, with appropriately hinged and moving parts. When the repeater mechanism is activated, the couple in the background has the limelight square on them: the man’s hips move with each hour strike. However, it is the couple in the foreground that is the true subject of this timepiece. That couple, the woman standing behind the man, have moved a curtain aside and are watching the couple in the back. Hence, the watch’s “Voyeur” name. This “foreground” couple does more than just watch, however, and to the strike of the quarter hours and the more frequent minute strikes, the female uses a particular hand gesture that may not have been used in erotic watches to date.

i just got this a few months ago with a discount for around 140$

it has the nice classic field watch dial, decent lume, a screw down crown, a nice solar movement (wouldnt want the chinese mechanical version (costs an extra 70$)), 100m wr, sapphire crystal, and works well with different NATO straps

i wouldnt oppose saving for a better quality field watch (personally, i dont spend more than 250$ on watches). if you want an auto movement go for those newer seiko 5 models (as opposed to the pilot watch snk800s)

>>17711015
You can tell it's titanium the moment you touch it.

It weights half as much as steel does you just hold it in your hand and your brain goes WAIT WHAT? HOW? you just feel like it's too light to be real, especially if it's quartz.

My dad's titanium quartz Tissot with a bracelet weights the same as my Casio Royale does.
