Look at this shiny piece of shit, you might remember a time when Rolex made beautiful tools like the GMT Coke.

>>17714854
No like the thing where the left wing says the right wing is fascist and the right wing says the left wing is fascist but they're so dumb and/or dishonest they'll never acknowledge that they're actually both fascist.

>Your budget
up to 300$, can be cheaper if it's great value
> Watch type, e.g. dress, diver, pilot
classy sports watch. think the Oyster Perpetual (not necessarily an homage to that model though)
> Movement, e.g. automatic, hand wound, quartz
I prefer mechanical but quartz isn't a deal breaker either
> Desired features, e.g. water resistance, day/date, 2nd time zone
don't care
> Preferred strap option, e.g. leather, nylon, bracelet
bracelet
> Wrist size or desired watch size
small wrist, though I haven't measured it. something in the 36-40mm range should be fine

I like the look of this Seiko - does it seem like a good pick up, or would something else be betteR?

>>17714859
Isn't it funny how Rolex's iconic air travel watch has the same water resistance as their iconic diving watch?

>>17714863
Tissot PRX, unironically

>>17714864
Isn't it ironic? Don't you think?
It's like rain on a wedding day, like a free ride that you already paid.

>>17714867
That's not irony, it's just unfortunate.

If I walked into a Rolex AD tomorrow, would I be able to walk out with a steel DJ of my choice? If not how long might I have to wait? And how long would I need to wait for a GMT? Ive spent nothing on Rolex and looking to get my first.

Probably a few weeks at most for a datejust. GMT might be a year or more but if you get the datejust first they might bump you up a little.

>>17714864
>Isn't it funny how Rolex's iconic air travel watch has the same water resistance as their iconic diving watch?

>>17714886
Yes, he said it reminded him of his old Seamaster from the 60s.

>>17714897
Nice. Are those 40mm, how do they size on you?

>>17714893
lel, normos will never understand SWISS MADE holds little to value and will buy chinkshit branded with Tissot or whatever for exporbitant prices
>RADO selling 2k quartz shitheaps because muh ceramic and muh swiss made

>>17714901
The modern one is 41mm, the old one is 38mm.
Both fit comfortably. They're both pretty restrained in terms of lug-to-lug.

>>17714872
>would I be able to walk out with a steel DJ of my choice?
probably not
>If not how long might I have to wait?
a few weeks or months depending on the dial, bezel and bracelet
And how long would I need to wait for a GMT?
forever if were talking pepsi, batman or sprite. unless of course you spend money on other things first.
the term "waiting list" makes people think there is a chronological order, but there isnt. as long as there is somebody with a better relationship to your AD who also wants to buy that GMT Master, you will not get the call
>>17714879
>Dare I ask if a Daytona is even possible within about a year too?
lol

Is every watch just a Rolex cope?

>>17714910
I figured the waiting list was a priority list. Still learning how fucked the Rolex system is. Might just get a GMT and be done with it

>>17714884
AS I WAS SAYING! the module on the GW-M5610 and GW5000 doesn't have a dst table so it has to rely on the radio signal to update the to dst unlike the module of the GW-B5600 or the GMW-B5000, but the downside is that these models don't display the battery level. Displaying the battery level is useful but it's done with dashes that are indistinguishable with the reference on the glass display. Same for the alarm, these dashes are used simply because they are cheap and can be found on basic digital watches.
>but anon I want to go home and suck your dick...
NEXT ON THE AGENDA! is why a common metal like titanium is so rarely used in watches compared to steel. The first thing you need to know is that to work titanium you need different tools and manufacturing compared to steel this...

>>17714920
its not just Rolex, any brand that is able to is playing this game
Omega ADs are doing the same shit with the snoopy moonwatches and the 321
here is a pro tip: if a watch is sold with a 100% markup on the grey market, no AD in the world will sell it to some random guy without making him buy 50k in garbage first

Can't you just walk into a Rolex boutique in Switzerland, Vegas or Dubai and buy any watch you want?

>>17714927
lol

>>17714930
Why the fuck does Rolex have boutiques if you can't buy a watch?

>>17714917
In the sports watch genre yes. Except the Nautilus and the Royal Oak.
In the dress watch category, everything is a Patek cope.
That's how it is sadly. Too bad because there are many non Rolex sports watches and non Patek dress watches that I like.

>>17714931
>Why the fuck does Rolex have boutiques if you can't buy a watch?
Many boutiques have stock again. There are four or so near me and they all have pieces in stock, just not the most popular models.

>>17714927
Alright building off this question, if I am in Vegas and walk into a Rolex AD, can I get a GMT? Or will they make me wait and say "come back to Vegas in a year and you can pick it up" like a bunch of fags

>>17714931
to put your name on the waiting list
also there are plenty or Rolex you can buy: womens datejust, air kings, oyster perpetuals with ugly dials, and $30k precious metal watches
go to your nearest AD and take a look at the empty showcase, its a bizarre sight

>>17714894
Yes, it is an easy Rolex to get, ironically it is the best Rolex in the current catalogue, the only watch that maintains the design and proportions of its predecessors. It is very nice to compare the reference 14270 with the 124270, almost identical watches.

>>17714934
>if I am in Vegas and walk into a Rolex AD, can I get a GMT?
there is not one AD on the planet that has a steel GMT master in stock
if they are nice they will pretend to put your name on the waiting list, if they are not they will laugh you out of the store

>>17714934
>if I am in Vegas and walk into a Rolex AD, can I get a GMT?
Of course not, retard. Why would they sell it to (You)?
These watches sell for two times their retail price on the grey market. What have you done to deserve a 12k watch that is worth 25k the second you leave the store?

>>17714940
>>17714941
what if I get down on my knees and start slobbing knobs

>>17714940
>there is not one AD on the planet that has a steel GMT master in stock
WRONG.
They have many in stock, they just won't sell them to anyone.

>>17714939
>It is very nice to compare the reference 14270 with the 124270, almost identical watches.
Aside from the movement, though, the 14270 is superior.
The new case is actually 35mm, has shorter lugs, and a 19mm bracelet. It wears much smaller than the old 36mm version. It looks dainty. If you put it next to a 36mm DJ, you can see it's visibly smaller.
It was very disappointing.

>>17714844
>left wing
>right wing
>both are simps for a roastie

>>17714943
absolutely not
the second one arrives at the store they will call their VIPs and the watch will be gone within a day

Is this the watch thread?

To sell you something else while they hold what you want over you like a carrot.

>>17714951
this is the ROLEX thread

Then you get a rolex, just don't wear it, the people are going to know what you did.

I showed some watches to a girl after sex a couple weeks ago. She's an architect so she liked Moser, Nomos, GS, and my Pelagos.

I thought she'd like the Octo Finissimo but she didn't, and she hated anything with a skeleton dial.

>>17714946
There's no evidence that she's roast beef.

>>17714963
You think that person is not a biological woman?

>>17714962
She has shit taste, stuck in the outdated minimalist philosophy.

>>17714863
>I like the look of this Seiko - does it seem like a good pick up, or would something else be betteR?
Seiko and orient are the only 200$ mechanicl watches worth looking at and that's one really good seiko.

>>17714962
>I thought she'd like the Octo Finissimo but she didn't, and she hated anything with a skeleton dial.

Your girlfriend has a taste.
Skeleton watches are gaudy abominations.

>>17714971
But she even hated the new JLC Reverso chrono

Obviously she hated Pikulik

>>17714962
>I thought she'd like the Octo Finissimo but she didn't, and she hated anything with a skeleton dial.
Based.
Is she a biological woman or a "woman"?

>>17714975

>>17714974
>JLC Reverso chrono
This thing?
Well it's fat hideous and gaudy.

>>17714962
did you seed her?

why wear watch that says "citizen" on it. it makes you feel like you are marked with "sheeple"
citizen has to be the worse brand name. they have some cool watches but Id never let them mark me with such low class word only jeets will get existed over such brandname

>>17714962
To be more precise, she liked the Nomos Weltzeit, and she liked all the GSs with textured white dials, except the Shunbun, cos she thought it was too gay for guys :p

Guys, I kind of want to get one of those old Piaget with stone dials. They're not THAT expensive and they're incredibly stylish.
Should I?

>>17715019
They're just not in the top 20, it's fine, the market is oversaturated anyway.

>>17715021
Sure. Piaget is a great brand that doesn't get very much attention.

I appreciate the suggestions but what I mean is specifically this matte, high contrast retro tool watch dial. I know it's pretty specific but I can remember there being so many microbrands making racing inspried watches it became a meme so I'm wondering if there are any models from microbrands I don't know that fit this very specific criteria. I just really dig this look.

>>17715283

>>17714863
the SRPE series look so much better on photos than the older Seiko 5 for some reason
is this also true IRL? do they look and feel noticably higher quality from the classics like the SNKL?

>>17715182
plebbit honestly. Do a post on /r/watchexchange. WUS is ok too but they have a 100 post minimum threshold to post on the sale corner. Wristsushi is another good forum for japanese affordables. Otherwise eBay, though that would be the last option for me.

>>17715296

>>17715359
Yeah but I'm poor but surprised that I can't find a cheap watch with this look. After all I am not asking for a dial with intricate detail. The opposite actually.

Just remembered Mondaine makes something like that. Not in racing inspired design but it's the colors I want. Just looks a bit goofy to have a wall clock on your wrist.

>>17715363
I love these old Constellation from the 60s.

>Yeah but I'm poor but surprised that I can't find a cheap watch with this look. After all I am not asking for a dial with intricate detail. The opposite actually.

If you drop the black case SNK809 or SNK375 might be what you want.
Or drop a red hand and get a black on black one.

If you're crazy about it there's a seiko 5 modding community and you can get picrelated and swap a red hand into it.

>>17714012
i like this. logo reminds me of spectre, fictional organisation in bond movies

>>17715398
Are there any services where you can make a custom watch? If not that seems like a business idea.

Brands/models under $200 for bitch wrists? I'm talking the thinnest of the thin.

>>17715501
Not under $200 but the SACM171 can be had for not a whole lot more. It's thin & small, and a HAQ.

>>17715118
This exact design exists in like 20 different brands. Are you specifically looking for a version for poor people?

>>17715514
Because if you are, this (and a thousand similar "homages") is $350.

>>17715395
>interesting history

I wish microbrands that make "homages" would just give us sterile dials and not bother with branding

how is the quality of these? is it on par with seiko at this price point or swatch tier?

Should I biy a Seiko Explorer?

They do. The company was started because a train conductor's watch broke, which led to a fatal train crash.

So uuuh... why didn't polo players just take off their watch before playing?

Nice Tag F1 and Rangeman, senpai.

>>17716137
Thanks anon, good recommendation. I'm already trying to sell a couple. I did went overboard and added too many over the years. I would keep only the Hamilton, citizen, Bulova, round casio and the two gshocks on the right.

>>17716158
Thanks, the rangeman is what I use to the gym. It's big, legible and starts the chronometer with just one push of a button

>>17716158
Oh and the F1 is really comfy, I don't know what kind of steel was used but it's "whiter" I don't know how else to describe it, also the rotating bezel is very nice and had zero play, my main gripe is that one of the crown guards is broken but I bought it cheap

Dude, just buy your 36mm field watch with compass attachment on nato.

The only person who's ever noticed my Sinn was an old man who was into watches. My G-Shock got more compliments.

>>17715633
I got my current job after complimenting the CEO's watch during my interview.
I was wearing the Bell&Ross I had back then (picrel) and he was wearing some fat Breitling diver. We've talked about watches for like 1h, barely talked about work.
2 days later the HR cunt called and told me I was hired and the CEO loved me.

nato straps suck

Is there a cheap watch I can buy that will be considered “based” and not “cope” by /wt/ regulars or is it over for me?

>>17716205
Depends
What's considered cheap to you

>>17716156
It was made for British military officers. They always needed to be conscious of the time, especially when playing polo.

>>17716205
A classic g-shock or the osama casio aren't copes for anything. They are what they are.

A. It's the Bin Laden Casio, Obongo only stains it's otherwise stellar reputation
B. It is cool as fuck. The right size, neat crisp little moldings and the spectacular color accents are making it THE CASIO. One time they got everything right and nothing wrong

Congratulations anon, thats just beautiful. By you being a likeable lad you developed a mutual respect between you and your superior. Going to work and working itself is so much more pleasant when you respect and are respected by the man in charge. I remember one time worked a wagie labour job and had a female boss, it was the easiest time and the best time i had working a dogshit job, she did her part well and always respectfully made sure we got shit done but also had our backs the entire time. Man that woman had balls, i am telling you dont feel guilty at all, that mutual understanding connection is also one entire way of gouging whether a man is fit or has thr potential to be the right man for the job or not. That Ceo would not have chosen you had it not been for the things he actually saw in you that he was looking for to beginn with, its just that checked for them in a manner you are not used to thats all. Id bet money on the fact that you were hired based off of competence not nepotism

It's funny how dressing a watch up can change its character. The Air-King was the cheapest, shitty little entry model for the longest time, but wait 50 years then put it on the wrist of a well-dressed, conventionally attractive guy and it's an instant style icon.

Well, isn't having a nice watch just fattie cope because they can't wear fashionable clothes?

Yes, but remember that Tudor submariners and other "tool watches" at the time were even cheaper, and now go for house down payment money.

Yes. Anon was right, though. Old is still superior in nearly every way from an appearance perspective.

>>17716392
You're right, we often forget in these threads that watches are fashion accessories that are supposed to compliment an outfit.
Dressing up a tool watch definitly works but so does dressing down a dress watch. It's all about contrast.

We have an anon here who dailies a Reverso. On a chunky strap, it looks fine.

just bought a Casio A700 on the mesh strap. I hear it feels much better than the normal Casio bracelet. is that true?

>>17716429
JLC sells reversos that come with two straps and their quick-change system. One strap is more formal and the other is part leather, part canvas to give a more casual tone.

The Casio WV-59 I ordered from eBay was the model with a plastic strap but I ordered a bracelet from a seller in Germany to replace that as I prefer those, so it's a matter for the individual to decide. Try both yourself.

Fine here's a plan for you
A start buying bitcoin.
B keep buying anf buying for the next year
C when it starts sky rocketing sell bitcoin for shitcoins
D ride the rocket twice get a 4X on bitcoin and then 10X on shitcoins.

Never gamble, never short, don't trade ups and downs, but you can take small leverage at the bottom of a dump. And by small i don't mean 10x, never go over 100%

This is what i'm going to do.

Hey, guys, let me tell you about my great plan. Works every time. You're a millionaire in under 24 months! What? No, I haven't started it yet.

Now, if you were really smart, you would skip the actual investing in crypto and instead sell a course on investing in crypto to easily gulled midwestern rubes.

Good looking watch, despite hating the "X" and related text they put on a lot of their newer watches. Wish they would do more of the SARX035 style with just "Automatic" at the bottom, if anything at all.

>>17716487
Ok so >>17716449

>>17716499
Who the fuck cares retard? We're here to shitpost about watches, not give you life advice. Go away.

>>17716420
The smaller numbers on the old one look better, but the lumen on the new one is worth it. I prefer the 20mm bracelet because it's more versatile, but the lower lugs look more proportionate on the new one. The diameter of the case is the same, here the other Anon is wrong. I prefer the vintage style of the old one, but with a similar price I prefer get the new one.

>>17716520
If the price were the same...I'd probably get the new one, since I like the modern movement (actually, just the modern 70hr power reserve.)
But on c24 a 114270 goes for around 5.5k USD, while the 124270 starts at 8k USD on c24 but its MSRP is 6.5k USD.

To me, that 70hr power reserve is not really worth a thousand dollars (and definitely not 2.5k USD). It's a no-date watch, it takes no time at all to set.
I used to have a 14270 (Luminova, not tritium) and I thought the lume was fine, very easy to read in the dark, despite not having lumed numerals.

To me, the old one simply looks more masculine. (Yes, I know it's splitting hairs) Fortunately, they made a million of them, so finding one is not difficult. Definitely, I'm still glad that Rolex went back to the 36mm size.

I really don't have a dog in this fight, though, since I sold my Explorer I have had zero desire for another one. (The Turn-o-graph that I sold, on the other hand, I'm still kicking myself for that.) The Explorer is a great watch for people who don't (or don't want to) think a lot about watches.

Don't kid yourself, If Omega made that today, exactly as it was back then, /wt/ would still bitch about it.
