I'm trying to find something else but I just keep coming back to the seagull 1963. Yeah it's a chinese manual watch but what you get is pretty decent and I honestly love the look of it. Can't really find anything else in that price range.

>>17775391

Will I regret getting an automatic? Do you trust it for telling the time or do you double check on phone? How often do you correct it?

>>17775362
FUCK NIGGERS

>>17775391
What a fun watch!
You might also like Azimuth's Back in Time collection.

>>17775405
expensive ones, once a month, cheap ones once a week. and yes i trust

>>17775394
Get the Seagull its a good watch. If you don't like the design there are some more modern variants with the same movement on aliexpress. I own the original 1963 and its one of my favorite watches, but there are times where I think it looks too old man-ish (I got the original 38mm size).

fuck off with your muh Rolex shit.

Let's make a /wt/ actually about REASONABLE watches that the majority of the population want to buy and keep your superficial stuffiness to yourself.

>>17775405
It’s trivial as long as the watch has hacking seconds. If it doesn’t it’s a little more annoying but not something you need to do frequently unless it’s a really shit Seiko or Russian watch.

>>17775394
Have you looked at Baltany's chronos on Aliexpress? They have several in that size and budget

>>17775410
i'm not concerned about the old-man vibe I'm 36 I'm basically half fuckin dead. I was just hoping there was something at least comparible from a non chinese brand. But then if there was the watch would be made in china anyway.

There's the timex weekender chronograph which looks alright for maybe half the cost.

>>17775420
>Let's make a /wt/ actually about REASONABLE watches that the majority of the population want to buy
While OP's pic is a 35k watch.

>>17775420
no rollie?

what's the cheapest sapphire face automatic black/brown leather band watch I can get that isn't literal Chinese garbage?

>>17775436
>sapphire face
Dont you mean sapphire crystal, black dial?
Probably a Tissot

>>17775432
half of this hobby is coveting expensive stuff you'll never buy.

>>17775441
yes I meant sapphire crystal.
dial color doesn't matter much to me but I'd actually prefer anything but black haha

I understand maybe spending $3.35M on a Patek minute repeater perpetual retrograde, I even understand spending $3M for a Jackie Chan double tourbillon from RM. But I do not get why someone would spend $2.8M on a simple 3 hand with date Nautilus, I get its rare but its just a different color dial. Wouldn't it make sense to just buy a regular 5711 for about $80K then spend the rest on something substantial like a VC or rare AP which are still quite a bit "cheaper" than 2.8M (roughly $1M).

>>17775457
For me, it's the Bubba Watson

>>17775457
>I understand maybe spending $3.35M on a [watch]
No you don't. You don't have $3.3mil and if you won the lotto tomorrow you wouldn't buy 1 fucking watch. People who throw away millions on a wristwatch do it because it'd be like most people spending $33.00 on one.

>>17775457
they all look like shit and are therefore worth 0 dollars to me

>>17775461
>if you won the lotto tomorrow you wouldn't buy 1 fucking watch
I know, I'd buy like 50.

>>17773669
Didn't see the post you were referring to, but it's a little misleading to say the issues with the 32 series movements are because they are single-barrelled. The profile of the pallet fork jewels is such that it causes excess wear on the escape wheel teeth, which usually results in the watch running noticeably slower by around the one year old mark. If Rolex had used a double barrel approach rather than their new chronergy escapement, sure maybe the issue would have been avoided.

As far as Tudor movements go, I've never seen anyone complain about similar issues and a cursory google search doesn't bring anything up. They also don't use the same chronergy system described above, so it shouldn't be an issue, though I don't know what they've done to achieve a higher power reserve.

Hello fellow gentlemen of leisure!

>>17775500
Probably a Hamilton.

get some gold up in here hun

>>17775500
Maybe a Timex, I think theres a few really obscure brands nobody has ever heard of that use sapphire crystals too.

Remember though, a mineral crystal is fine if you want a dressier look. It'll be under a fine cotton or silk shirt, and a wool suit. Its not likely to get scratched.
Even if it does, you can buy a sapphire crystal for $40, take it to a jeweler/watchmaker and have him upgrade if it does get scratched. Thats what convinced me to get a seiko 5

>>17775487

Why did Panerai dropped their bracelets?
This is efffing cool

>>17775457
Rare Nautiluses and certain Royal Oaks are mainly bought by speculators at this point. Anyone with any sense left that market long ago and the only people left are the degenerate gamblers and the bag holders. The sell signal was when mainstream journalists started writing articles about them.

Really like this watch bros. Thinking about copping it. Would be my first chrono. Love me some long-jeans.

Also, what the fuck is up with FP Journe putting "invinit et fecit" on the front of all their watches? It literally just means "invent and execute", which seems like such an uninspired thing to put on the front of such expensive watches. Like "get up and go", or something.

>>17775520

poorfag here, can i get a superclone with nh35 ?

>>17775529
Funny. I actually own this exact reference.
The watch is quite good and the bracelet is kino af, but very, very vulnerable to scratching. I think most Panerai fans prefer straps over bracelets, tho.

Should i cop?

My pro: -I really want a small mens dress watch that's not vintage (34mm), which is a very small niche
-Great quality finishing

>>17775813
>Kurono is a scam
Is it tho?
It's using a Miyota 90s5. Other watches that use this movements are:
-Lorier Falcon III $450
-RZE resolute $650
-Xeric Scrambler $1100
-Gorilla Nomad $1750

The prices vary a lot.
Kurono is in the upper tier of pricing for this movement, but then it all comes down to the case finishing i guess.

>>17775848
>>17775849
It has that nasty sport watch look, like every other chink Rolex copy.

>>17775537

these mido watches are crazy accurate, after 4 or 5 days they're +/- 1s each

I kind of like these /wt/ watch threads, but let's face it, most of you people have nasty eastern yuro tastes, and you bring this board down with those trashy tastes of yours.
Blingy rolexes and wagie shitters, to sum it up.

>>17775963
Thanks for the advice.
Question: Is it normal for the seconds hand to be a bit off the mark? It doesn't line up perfectly. It's not a grievous issue, but I'd be lying if I said it doesn't trigger my ocd.

>>17775980
You will rarely find quartz movements that hit all the markers, usually it'll be a little off at the top and bottom. Mine isn't perfect either, but it's good enough.

>>17775980
>>17775987
It's really only high-end quartz watches that hit on the markers. Grand Seiko, The Citizen, Breitling, Omega back when they still made quartz.

A lower-end quartz might still hit the markers, but that's mostly down to luck.

>>17775987
>usually it'll be a little off at the top and bottom
Mine is bottom. It sort of corrects itself once it reaches the 12 mark.
>>17775993
I read it's an assembly line thing. Like, the mass-produced ones are always calibrated to hit the mark while the handmade ones don't. Is that true, or just some marketing bullshit/excuse?

>>17775998
It's how the seconds hand is mounted onto the cannon pinion. Assembly line-made shitters just slap it on. Higher-end, hand-made ones receive a little more care.
Some of the better quartz movements also have adjusters that allow the watchmaker to correct for any misalignment.

Remember, also, that the angle at which you're looking at the watch will make a difference in how the hands appear to line up with the markers.

Rolex bought bucherer

Thoughts on the Baltic bicompax is it cope or dope? I really like the black dial one

I wonder what happens to the Carl F. Bucherer brand?

Are diver type dials harder/slower to read in a glance than numbers in field watches?

I like to update the time at least once a week. Even if you don't keep it accurate to within a minute it's not very likely that there will be serious consequences for your watch being 2 or 3 minutes off.

>>17776059
>2 or 3 minutes off
This is why I stick with quartz.

Are there any other vintage style divers out there with a similar blue as the BB58? Seems like the only alternatives are $200 ali express chink shit and id rather have something a bit nicer. Not totally in love with the Tudor, just really dig the blue but don't want to drop 3k.

>>17775096
I am unable to distinguish this watch from feces.

>>17776088
kek, Boomer humor.

>>17776066
>Are there any other vintage style divers
Woh oh oh! There's no such thing.

>>17776063
I actually do like to set my automatics 10 or 15 seconds ahead so that as they lose a couple seconds a day they average out to being closer to the actual time for longer intervals between setting. I don't usually let it get much more than a minute off, I was just saying even in an extreme case if it was 5 minutes off is that going to hurt you? Maybe, but probably not.

>>17775405
my Rolex is more acurate than my Lange 1

>>17775405
nah it's a fun ritual, the only thing that gets annoying is if you get a timepiece that runs fast, you have to reset the entire date and time (am/pm) unless your specific movement can handle a tiny amount of reverse winding

>>17775855
It is not a Rolex copy, is a 62MAS copy, a nicer looking Seiko watch, Rolex watches are ugly and modern 62MAS are mostly overpriced with sub par specs and with bigger sizes than the original watch,even the expensive reissue 017 is 2mm bigger than the original, the others are 40 and 42mm. So this homage is pretty decent because is small as the original, a 37mm skindiver with same type of bezel and improved be ause it is ceramic, and the crystal is improved too,shapphire.

>>17775405

Once a week approximately. Once i managed to go a month straight without correcting it, i must have kept the mainspring close to fully wound or something for it to drift that little.

>>17776232
I wouldn't buy it. I don't like two-tone watches. It does not look good and also seems old-fashioned to me. I also don't like the blue tone of the bezel and dial. What is the point of a gold sports watch? It doesn't make sense to me. All in all, it's a very ugly watch to me.

>>17776232
Im not mad keen on invictas but you do you I guess

>>17776193
Good luck with the service, it's disposable rubbish anyway, when you get bored of it you'll buy another shit.

I hate funny watches.
I hate you.

>>17776278
These are cheaper than a service dipshit. Plus most of em have Seikos inside so should be easy to service

the anon that told me to get this was right, it is a nice little watch. spruced it up with a nato strap from cousinsuk too. not bad for 30 bones.

>>17776232
Benchod! Another indian brother, do you live in Mumbai?

>>17776289
>Plus most of em have Seikos inside
Next time buy a real Seiko, my dear anon.

What I always say: If you don't have money, buy a Casio, there are cheap and great casios. If you want something analog and cheap buy a Seiko or Citicen quartz, but never buy a cheap mechanical watch like a Seiko 5 or all that micro brand crap, or worse, San Martin or Pagani.
Mechanical watches have nothing to do with affordability, in fact, it's just the opposite. A mechanical watch is about beauty, rarity and craftsmanship, affordability is out of the equation.
Not ofense.

>>17776317
the lettering on those outer circles looks really cheap

redpill me on automatics

>>17776326
When San Martin or Pagani release their own version it will be great!!!

>>17776303
Why? At least Ali shitters have aligned indeces and bezels unlike basedko

>>17776328
Rolex, Grand Seiko Elegance, maybe some Tudor are entry level

>>17776334
Ok anon, buy what you want, I don't buy Seiko or San Martin

>>17776339
That THE TRUTH (TM)

But i enjoy wearing other shit just because.

How high should a watch sit on the wrist, what is the highest without looking stupid in your opinion?

My wrist is tappered with thinnest part right on the bone. I dont like wearing the watch too low because the crown digs in. To prevent sliding up and down i wear it a bit higher

>>17776344
It is my advice and it is what I think, you can do what you want with your money

>>17776351
2 inches below the elbow

>>17776351
>what is the highest without looking stupid in your opinion?
12.5 mm

>>17776354
A seiko 5 fills all those roles except for rarity. Golden charizard cards are super rare, doesn't make them worth whatever some collector wants to sell it for.

>>17776328
they're just cool little machines with some amazing engineering
i love having one with a power reserve indicator

>>17776360
Seiko 5s are great, except at timekeeping.

>>17776339
This is true, but the sad thing is that people will spend the same money on piece of shit just because it says "automatic" on the dial.

>>17776365
Nobody is using a wristwatch to keep absolutely accurate time. Nobody actually cares if your watch is +/- 3 seconds a month. Nobody would even notice that.

>>17776317
so what is the cheapest mechanical watch that im allowed to buy?
Sub 1000 tissot?
Sub 3000 longjeans?
Sub 5000 turdor?
Sub 8000 iwc?
Sub 12000 rolex?
Sub 20000 jlc?
Sub 30000 vc?
Sub 40000 ap?
Sub 60000 patek?

Too bad they are fugly. I wish pic rel was available with eco drive

>>17776374
all quartz/solar watches are ugly, it's like a secret pact watchmakers have

>>17776370
San Martin is the thinking man's choice

>>17776369
Seiko 5s are more like +/- 15 MINUTES a month.

>>17776375
Yeah, Cariter tried and someone must have sent them a horse head.

>>17776370
>so what is the cheapest mechanical watch that im allowed to buy?
Some Tudors, some Cartier, of course basic Rolex, basic JLC, Grand Seiko Elegance. To me, that's entry level for an automatic watch. Avoid IWC and Omega.

>>17776378
HOLY SHIT I MAY HAVE TO ADJUST THE TIME ON A MECHANICAL THING? 15 MINUTES OUT OF 43,200?
Thats .000347% inaccurate btw. Even the IRS lets that level of inaccuracy slide.
I wear more than 1 watch ever. All of my mechanical watches lose power so I have to set them every time I wear it anyway.

Watches are jewelry, stop pretending your jewelry is better because you paid more for it. Wear watches because they make you happy, not because you paid a lot.

>>17776370
if it looks nice you can buy it
mechanical watches are inherently inaccurate so they're just expensive accessories

>>17776382
Wot? Im not that other guy, anon. Only saying the truth about Seiko 5s.

>>17776381
>Tudors
Opinion discarded

>>17776387
I would never buy a Tudor, but it can be a good start for a newbie

>>17776374
I like how they look

It's funny whenever they interview a famous collector on a YouTube channel, they always say the same thing, that you should buy what you like and make you happy, but then these guys only collect Pateks and Rolexes, nothing from San Martin or Pagani. And the end of the day, the only one who say the true is Archie.

I'm dark like joseph kony
what color (leather) band and what color dial would suit me? I'm thinking of outright avoiding dark brown bands and black dials

>>17776401
I think all those "collectors" on youtube are just shills.

>>17776403
Red and/or yellow

Anon, I'm going to buy this guy a watch, wish me luck.

>>17776415
yellow is my favorite colour but don't you think it'd stand out a lot on a watch? do you have any examples?

>>17776423

>>17776298
Holy crownbutt.

>>17776423
Bold colors like red, yellow, neon anything, and even some pastels jump out. If you can match it with a shirt, tie, pocket thing, or hat it'll stand out. If you like the color of a dial, fuck it let it stand out. You bought the watch, you like the color, let people notice it.

I was just thinking about a yellow gold watch recently; so few people wear watches, and even fewer wear all-gold colored watches. I kinda want that retired boomer look sometimes and get a gold-tone seiko or casio.

How do you feel about matching watches? I enjoy it a lot.

>>17776446
A Tiffany Blue dial can work too.

>>17776446
fair enough, thanks man

is this the cheapest metal casio?

The Rolex

>tfw no gf to get a cute matcing watch with
why live bros

havent wore watches in ages until the other day. i forgot how uncomfortable experience it is. to be fair, it was some random stainless steel shitter but still. i think if i will get back into watches i will buy myself a lightweight titanium one

>>17776523
it just takes a few days getting used to and you won't feel it. there are also many lightweight steel watches

>>17776500
>gf

Need 'safety' pins or a breakaway strap so I don't deglove my hand at my 210k/yr pipe-laying gig. Do such things exist in the lux watch world?

>>17775858
I really like that one. Do you have it?

>>17776560
Find a different way to stunt on your pleb coworkers other than wearing a luxury watch. If your skin gets ripped off, they laugh at you. If your watch gets ripped off, they laugh at you.

>>17776560
Doubt so. In fact there exist the exact opposite, so you can't take off your watch, even if you want to, without a key. It works to turn a robbery into a murder.

>>17776545
it's not fun being unloved anon..

>>17776574
Pics?

>>17776574

>>17776578
sucks to be you. I'm loved but I refuse to reciprocate

>>17776574
Is this it? Lel imagine wearing that.

>>17776568
It's on the way as we speak, in rose red instead of salmon

>>17776584
>>17776585
>>17776589
Here are two different systems for when you want to totally skip robbery and become a victim of murder.
There are others around.

>>17776570
>>17776574
I feel like a leather strap would break before I do so that's where I'm starting. Right now I could break my Casio resin strap by flexing hard enough so I'm comfy enough wearing it in the shit.

>>17776601
why do you need to wear a watch so bad at your pipe job that you'd risk it?

>>17776595
Fucking lol
Imagine being killed for an AirKing you had to finance in 24 payments.

why is it so expensive? i mean its cool but 1.5k+ cool?

>>17776602
Watches are cool, I hate phones, and time is money nigga

>>17776605
yeah but the simple solution to that is just don't live near nogs

>>17776608
If you have a company like that it pays to have a couple "high end" options. People like to have exclusive things even though it's all the same shit.

>>17776608
>Endless sea of useless words
LOL, LMAO even.

>>17776611
yeah but having limbs is cooler.

>>17776618
FINE RESIN CUSHIONING

>>17776620
What you said about me, faggot?

>>17776621
FINE!!!
FIIIINE!!!!!!

Did you guys see the new 36mm Twelve?

I feel as though I am about to coom.

>>17776449
i’d smack my wife across her mouth if she ever asked me to wear such a faggoty watch. how many children have you pushed out of your pussy btw?

>>17776645
The proportions seem a bit off.

>>17776649
Are you Britt’s husband?

>>17776653
That dial is pretty cool though.

>>17776595

>>17776656
It's no Grand Seiko though.

>>17776645
unnecessary texture on it imo, just like on the prx

>>17776660
No but I wouldn't have expected that level of finishing from CW anyway.

>>17776660
Can some turbo autist count how many facets there are on the dial?

>>17776661
It's not unnecessary, the pattern is fine on both, it's just that they're not finished on a high enough level to really look good. Details like that matter, even if you can't distinguish them from an arms length they have a big impact on how the whole watch is perceived. It looks like budget guilloche.

>>17776655
never heard of the bitch, i don’t follow celebrities. judging by the looks of her, she probably deserved it

>>17776671
I'm not saying it's bad, for that price i think it's great, it's just that they're not quite there yet. Personally wouldn't allow the silver dial from this pic >>17776660
go into production in that state if i were CW.

>>17776317
>but never buy a cheap mechanical watch like a Seiko 5
Why? From what I've read it's not uncommon to get ~7-10y or even more before needing service. A new mechanism costs 90 dollars and maybe 40 for the repair guy to put it in. Also they're everywhere and you can find parts easily

poorfagbros which should I cop? 316, 220 and 280 USD respectively. I'm leaning toward the first one
richfags need not reply and are actively discouraged from doing so.

>>17776681
The middle one, in steel. Looks the best and is most versatile.

>>17776681
right ne

>>17776375
>He doesn't know about luxury quartz

>>17776660
That looks like it could be stamped, barf

>>17776683
I'll be honest I can't say I'm a fan of steel bands at all.

>>17776685
>quartz >:(
>quartz, expensive :O

>>17776681
right

>>17776689
No i meant in steel tone, not gold.

>>17776645

>>17776660
>It's no Grand Seiko though.
True. Doesn't inspire my bowels to release.

>>17776700
To be fair the dials with this pattern are a bit lacking as well.

Perfection.

>>17776708
hideous

>>17776695
oh
well they have this with the dial in a different color. don't think I've ever had a band so brightly colored before so it'd definitely be something new

>>17776711
gay sexo fan hahahahahahah

>>17776712
You can always buy another strap and change it.

>>17776708
based

>>17776717
true, true. It's not bad at all though. I think I might go with it

>>17776594
I heard merkur is very bad at actually shipping the watch. Did you have any issues?

>>17776681
you can find a decent automatic for around the same price. buying a citizen quartz? lmao, might as well buy a fossil!

>>17776728
thanks for your input bro :)

eco-drive is timeless. only plebs don't understand this

>>17776208
What time is it nigga?

>>17776729
no problem :-). i spent around $500 on an eco-deive citizen around a decade ago. i thought it was my first big boy watch, since before that i only rocked fossils (high school) and g-shocks. the solar cells shit out after a few years (i took excellent care of it) but i did manage to get it fixed relatively cheap by citizen. shortly thereafter, i got tired of looking at it with the second hand clunking around all sloppily. i gave it to younger buddy as a gift and bought a cheaper orient automatic which i appreciated much more. the first thing i look for on somebody’s watch is the second hand. if it aint gliding, im not talking watches with that person. if it glides, i know that person has taste

Looking for an interesting and cool watch, I really like this one. Thoughts? Im new to all this.

>>17776473
>>17776473
>>17776473
>>17776473
any G-Shock experts here?

>>17776744
Ahem.

>>17776744
unironically what time is it?

>>17776752
2:51

>>17776739
Really? The Internet says they last easily 15+ years. Do you not go outside or live in England?

>>17776473
>>17776749
yeah im pretty sure that’s the cheapest one. you also have the option of buying a regular square and modding it with a metal case and bracelet. they used to have these kits on aliexpress, not sure if they still do. there should be a handful of youtube videos on how to do it. or just save up $400 and ebay the real all metal square

>>17776754
the solar cells failed, so the battery wouldn’t charge. the watch was probably around 3 years old at that point, worn maybe once a month. i think it was just bad QA

Really sad that this thread talks and spends money on watches instead of HELPING TRUMP!

>>17776763
Fuck Trump and everybody that looks like Trump.

Fucking /pol/tards...

Hi all.

Looking for some cool Bauhaus style watches beyond Nomos, Junkers, Sternglass and Junghans any ideas?

I particularly like the Junghansmax bill but I'd like a quartz alternative with a similar pebble shape so its more lean and wearable.

Thank you in advance.

how long can I expect to use a new timex automatic before I have to worry about overhauls? 10 years?

>>17776560
consider a pocket watch or a nurse's watch.

>>17776708
disgusting

cop or nah?

>>17776015
Bretty gud. I wish baltic did bigger sizes. I love my MR01 but it's microscopic on my wrist. Really can't wait to see that grainy dial with my wools and knitwear.

>>17776832
>tuesday placement
nevermind Im not buying this shit. I didn't notice at first

>>17776840
LOLOLOL
I just noticed that

>>17776852
its a shame because its a damn good looking watch. this one doesnt have the fucked up tuesday but it's also missing the romans that I really liked

>>17776728
This is some seriously retarded advice

>>17776854
Sometimes it feels like they just won't give something overall really good, out of spite, doesn't it?
All cheap watches have to have one fatal flaw.

>>17776473
>is this the cheapest metal casio?
No. There are some in the A1000 line for under $200.
>>17776749
G-Shock? Yes, they have metal cased models with resin band and bezels like the GW-5000U and the anniversary DW-5000 for around $250. If you want an all metal G-Shock the cheapest is the GMW-B5000. You can check ebay if you're not dumb enough to fall for fakes.

>>17776608
Because there is no competition for a titanium, DLC, shock resistant watch. It has grown on me. If you can't afford it and want to imitate the look just get the ali kit.

TISSOT LE LOCLE POWERMATIC 80 OPEN HEART
T006.407.16.033.01
$750.00

I love this watch (automatic, open heart, classy face), but I need a date display as I often write and forget dates for work. Any suggestions?

>>17776923
Yes, buy one with a date.

this is a person (probably tranny) that spent too much money on a shitty quartz watch

>>17776015
remind me of the Longines Sector.

>>17776726
Tracking is saying it's shopped to the distribution centre so I guess we'll see

>>17776744
copernicus is fun, but I'm pretty sure that's a refurbished / franken watch

>>17776775
doesn't Junghans make a quartz max bill anyway?

>17776500
One day anon, I wasn't big into watches but got shown some cool different ones that kicked it off.
>>17776649
That's funny because I got the watch to match his watch.

>>17775405
Mido: ±2seconds per day 1~2 months between setting
Orient: +10/day, set every couple of weeks
Vostok: +25/day, set every week or less

If you need to time shit down to the second just get an electric watch
