Okay guys time to test your knowledge, which one is fake.

left, right, both?

>>17887954
Neither.

>>17887959
Correct, the right one does need some work though. IDK if I want to pay the $750 to have an AD do it or take it to a reputable jeweler for $200.

>>17887954
The crown on both looks off.

>>17887966
It looks like it belongs to the wifey or your mother so I wouldn't cheap out. 750 bucks still hurts your wallet less than buying your beloved female a new rollie.

>>17887974
It's my mom's, it still runs but she said it's like 15 mins slow after a few weeks. She bought it in 1990 and she never serviced it like a dumbass.

>>17887976
To be expected I suppose. She's lucky she has a son like you to take care of things like that for her.

>>17887976
>never serviced it like a dumbass.
You'd be surprised how often that happens with expensive ass watches.

>>17887977
I just bought her an LV purse for $3k for her birthday. My rule of thumb is to always make your parents happy when they're with you. Because life's short, and who knows how long you have left with them.

>>17887985
True that. Not to mention that after all the trouble we caused them growing up it's nice to be able to give a little love in return.

Stop buying Japanese watches.

Is zenmarket still a good source of affordable vintage seiko / citizen / orient watches

>>17888001
From what?

>>17888005
see >>17887989

>>17888007
Your salary, hopefully, your gibs if not.

>>17887987
Yep. But then again same goes for us, I had a co-worker who worked their asses off. First one to get there and last to leave, skips lunch or eats it at the office pounding away on their keyboard. He's got a good 20 years on me but 20 years is a not that long of a time. Retired in June, found out he has cancer 2 months later. He's doing chemo right now and I hope he's gonna be okay.

He worked his ass off so his wife of 2 years can get paid 15k/month for the rest(not to mention the 1.25 million dollar home they share as well as whatever lump sum he has) of her life from his retirement if something were to happen to him. That's just bullshit.

I wasn't much of a watch guy, like most(all except Applewatch) of the shit I own were gifts. The day I heard about the cancer I was walking back to the office after lunch, saw a Rolex boutique. Walked in and asked what they have, they showed me a few models I was thinking of getting a DJ since I think it just looks best with the suit I had on, a stainless jubilee/fluted Wimbledon, a black dial jubilee/fluted and the green one. Ended up with the green one. Now I want more, called back there and put my name in for a Pepsi Jubilee as well as a Root Beer. I probably won't have a chance in hell for the Pepsi but I might be able to land the Root Beer.

Life is short, stop sweating the small stuff. Stop hating on others, be it trying to out clout people or fucking politics, bring happiness to yourself.

hmmm

low-IQ edition (wait that's all of them)

>>17888010
>>17888010
That's rough. Hopefully his chemo doesn't cause ED so he can still have a bit of fun with his (I'm assuming) younger wife before he croaks. If she doesn't smother him in his sleep that is. Good luck with the GMTs anon, I'm sure you'll get your hands on one sooner or later.

I honestly don't know the prognosis for bone marrow cancer but I sincerely hope he pulls through. What sucks is he could have retired at 50, he waited until he was 62 to retire. I'm going to retire the soonest I can, I don't care if I'm going to be forced to live on 10k a month I'll make it work. Right now I'm just putting 2-3k into the principle of my house every month just so I can retire as early as I can.

>>17888037
I would not mind being forced to live on 10k a month for the near future, not counting hyperinflation scenarios of course. There are worse things to be forced into.

Just get it regulated. Any competent watchmaker should be able to do that easily.

They don't care about selling their best watches in foreign markets.
They are genuinely surprised when they hear westerners express interest in "The Citizen" line.

I could live inside this dial.

>>17888084
I like how Citizen sticks to quartz which is what they're good at instead of try to compete in the mech realm with the likes to Rolex or Omega and failing embarrassingly like Seiko.

>>17887829
Sorry I didn't have time to reply.
Thanks for this good advice. The one with the Photoshop proof is very cunning but undeniable "proof" that I had the watch before entering japan.

>>17888097
they do some Mechanical too but they dont pretend to be revolutionary about it. Citizen is a fantastic brand in their category

>>17888097
They have plenty of automatics and they own a bunch of companies like Miyota, Frederique Constant and Alpina

>>17888104
Don't forget Bulova

>>17888116
Citizen owns bulova? Damn.

>>17888094
>that blue

Hideous.

>>17888094
Really? It's one of their most boring textures.

>>17888084
That looks like GS-tier. I would like to examine it with a super macro sometime.

>>17888084
Do I really have to buy a citizen now?
Damn anon.

>>17888097
Not only do they try to compete, but they SHOULD try to compete. Maybe not so much with the big boys like Rolex, but they try to make good models. It's actually really strange that they aren't more competitive than they are considering they own Miyota but every microbrand uses their Miyota movements better than they do. They really should branch out and use more varieties of their automatic movements to make stuff that stands out. For instance, they make the 8285 movement that is a full day daydate movement but literally the only watch I've ever seen on earth that uses it is made by Cadisen, a shitty chinesium company. Why didn't they put these in the Tsuyosa for affordable integrated bracelet automatic daydates? They make the 9122 automatic movement that has day and month subdials and 4 hertz beat rate, why on earth is Maen the only company making watches with it? People almost don't even know what these guys can make because they're not doing anything with it.

>>17888124
>>17888125
The dial material does something interesting with the light, it's not just sunburst. Not sure exactly what it is. I also find the red seconds hand to go nicely with the dial's deep blue. And the indices and other hands are chunky and blunt in a way that softens the look. Maybe it would be more interesting if the dial were lacquer, but I still think it's nice.

>>17888147
What's the model name? I will find some videos

>>17888125
>textures
It's just a sunburst, albeit a very very fine one, possibly the finest out there.

Alpinist for about 400 bucks.

>>17888147
GS makes very fine sunburst dials, i've seen a video once (that i can't find anymore) of a GS employee meticulously trimming the brush used fo make it with scissors before making every dial so all the hair is exactly the same length.

I've been looking into microbrands lately, like Brew, Farer, and Baltic. Any thoughts on these smaller brands? They seem pretty low-cost given how good they look -- but of course that makes me wonder if they're low-quality...

>>17888184
>I've been looking into microbrands lately, like Brew, Farer, and Baltic. Any thoughts on these smaller brands? They seem pretty low-cost given how good they look -- but of course that makes me wonder if they're low-quality...

Quality is touch-and-go. Half their customers rave about their quality, half have problems.
The main issues with microbrands is always one of longevity. If you have a 30 year old Rolex, you can have it serviced by going to any Rolex AD; but these microbrands are often 1-man operations. When he retires and you need your watch serviced, you'll have to go to an independent watchmaker...but what happens if you need a new crown, dial or set of hands and the company doesn't exist anymore?

>>17888184
Also check Maen.

>>17888188
Interesting... Makes me wonder if the ones that survive, or even ones with usable parts, might become more valuable to a collector in the future.

>>17888188
Most of the time it uses the NH35 movement, so SKX parts can easily fix it. That being said the NH35 has so much plastic in it you're probably better off fixing it yourself by throwing the old movement away in the garbage and just popping in a new one.

>>17888196
Movement servicing is always easy. That's not the issue. Neither are gaskets and even crystals, barring exotically shaped ones like in >>17888190

>>17888188
>what happens if you need a new crown, dial or set of hands

Pop in a generic dial? You can get one that will fit the movement, that's easy, but now your once cool watch looks like some student's project.

>>17888160
Because they made them gigantic and ugly as hell. They were all bigger and thicker and dumber looking than every microbrand using the same movements. Even islander is making 11mm thick watches with their movements, why are they putting the same movements in watches 3 mm bigger in every direction with shitty bracelets? How is some guy in his basement in long island making better watches for better prices than a multimillion dollar company that owns half a dozen historical brands?

>mfw mechanical watches last forever and qu*rtz watches crap out after a decade

I’m tired dude I have no fucking fetishized Vision of watches. I hate them. If you are short on time you are poor.

>>17888190
>starts at $700
Why not just get the PRX, it has a far better movement. IIRC this one uses a Sellita SW200, which is 'assembled in Switzerland' but 75% of it is made in China. It's still a decent movement and better than the cheap Miyota(citizen) and NH34(seiko) movements. But the powermatic 80 is still a better movement based on power reserve and dependability alone.

why did rolex increase the size of the sub, the bracelet is too wide now proportionally

no
>>17888218
yes

>>17888222
It's mostly plastic everywhere, the gears are either metal or aluminum. The jewels are plastic and not ruby. But at least its super cheap, you can buy a genuine Seiko movement from eBay or any what repair website for $20.

>>17888226
>jewels are plastic
no, retard

>>17888225
He still took the load like a bitch, I made him.

>>17888227
I've replaced a ton of these movements, the jewels are 'synthetic rubies' which is just plastic. Do you even know wtf you're talking about? These movements are shit, but at $20-$30 you can't really expect them to be anything but.

>>17888231
He told me to never come back, but I don’t see any fucking trespass bitch. Ill do it again if he wants a word.

>>17888231
synthetic ruby is actually sapphire, because it's super cheap to make and they're structurally the same. kill yourself you absolutely retard. they're shit movements but every single movement under the sun currently is made with synthetic ruby because why the fuck would you use mined ruby's when it's way cheaper to use synthetic. the movements are shit I will agree with that lmao

>>17888463
Why not? It’s good to have a diversified portfolio. Or do you mean taking possession of the physical gold? That’s usually just to feel rich when you can handle the coins. A number on a computer is not as satisfying.

>>17888471
that is true but a watch atleast serves a purpose in the meantime and doubles as an asset

Good choice. You don’t want to buy watches just to turn yourself into a meme. Yes, it’s funny that your collection is a bunch of jokes, but they’re also mediocre watches.

Better to invest and buy a good watch later.

Holy fuck this retard is still in the thread.

>>17888477

Only if it’s a Rolex or a Patek. A Toopoor is about as much of an asset as a jar of mayonnaise sitting in the sun.

I have enough Gold. And the lowest you can go with gold is 1g, which is around 63$ right now. If I want to buy, say, a loaf of bread, it's better to give a silver coin instead of any gold piece or coin. Silver is like, 80 cents per 1g, Gold is 63$

It was mentioned in the previous thread that this 'conical' caseback helps with the perceived thickness of the watch. Can confirm, it breaks the case side and visually makes it thinner as well as hides the caseback 'into' the wrist. Picrel.

Dude LMAO, citizen won the game so hard the swiss cucks invented their own little cope bubble of HAUTE HOROLOGY only to save themselves from the Japanese menace. And citizen isn't invading that solely out of mercy.

Citizen doesn't compete with Rolex and Omega because Rolex an Omega FUCKING RAN, It's not like Citizen failed to make a mechanical movement, it's that Rolex gave up on making a quartz movement only because of how fucking hard they'd lose to Citizen.

Here's a fucking reality check, the quartz watches are JUST BETTER, they are more accurate by several orders of magnitude, weight 3 times less, have 10 years of power reserve and no maintenance ever. And Citizen absolutely OWNS the quartz game (own the mechanical game with Miyota too btw).

Citizen
>invented the solar watch
>the first titanium watch
>1mm thin watch
>1second a year watch
>263khz watch (yes they own bulova)
>made some new bizzarro movement for the new Accutron too (nobody even knows how it works)

Rolex and Omega are playing the game in the Citizen Casino. Citizen own half of the "Swiss" brands as well and sells then the Miyota movements to use in the """Swiss""" watches.

If you think that Citizen aren't trying to make a louder name for themselves, that's only because they let the Swiss do that for them, using the Miyota movements.

Citizen has the technology and capacity to destroy the watch market at a snap of their fingers but chose not to.

is that yours? nice watch

>>17888586
Seiko Weekdater from 1964.

>>17888552
I need a dress watch but am too poor to get a jlc right now, eventually I want the master control triple date. So I am thinking about getting a citizen shitter because of all the posts like these itt. What is the most traditional and elegant citizen watch I can get for under $500? Don’t care what the movement is but solar would be cool

>>17888558
What are you referring to? The rehaut or the shine off the edge of the crystal?

>>17888443
I just finished a bottle of wine and now my head damn hurts.

>>17888552
I like the idea of those ultra thin citizen eco-drive ones but the case looks so fucking ugly to me with the screws in the bezel. Not only that but they have no water resistance, the fuckers say "splash resistant" on the website. Doesn't inspire much confidence.

I'm kinda taken with the small seconds model though. I wish it had a bracelet.

>>17888603
>the shine off the edge of the crystal
bruh

>>17888594
Do not get cheap shitters. Every dollar you spend on garbage is a dollar that you could have invested and gotten you that much closer to the watch you actually want. Don’t buy cope watches.

>>17888560
I keep seeing people say the new alpinist and baby alpinist are better in every way.

>>17888607
Oh, right. Poorfag coping. You’re just making shit up to make yourself feel better.

But no, you’re right. Let’s alienate the one poster who is able to post watches without blogging.

>>17888603
It's not the crystal, it's the bezel insert
It's clearly smaller than it should be, there's a huge fucking gap right there

>>17888610
Idk there's something about the classic one that's clean and pure.

>>17888613
>Let’s alienate
yes that's right, we poorfags will stomp you in to the ground, and don't worry, no one is going to take that fake Blancpain from you away

It’s not fake, I can assure you.

(In before you try to cope by complaining about finishing or something. You will anyway, though. )

>>17888609
Being able to responsibly afford the jlc is so far out, I’m a sperg that is grossed out by buying used watches so I have to get new, that I feel like a nice looking cheap dress watch would be worth it and I could use it as a beater later on.

>>17888625
nigga whaaat???? That thang is fake as fuck, i can see it with my bare foot!!!

>>17888625
Can you make another macro of the bezel?

>>17888627
> I feel like a nice looking cheap dress watch would be worth it
It would not. It would look cheap and you would feel cheap wearing it. Just 500 bucks further from JLC ownership.

>>17888630
yeah, better show us that fucked up bezel

>>17888622
okay ngl based as fuck, i do the same lmao

>>17888606
>with the screws in the bezel.

That's the price of having THE THINNEST watch, aside from that they also have 4mm thin watches in a perfectly fine looking case.

>>17888630
There’s no gap. The bezel insert is beveled and sits slightly above the carrier

>>17888638
Thank you anon, for ruining /wt/ by talking about and posting watches.

>>17888638
wrong angle/trying to hide it...

>>17888594
traditional and elegant citizen dress watches no longer exist because everything they make these days is fuckhuge. $500 budget, why don't you get a Tissot chronometer as a cope?
https://www.ashford.com/tissot-t0064081105700.html
A watch of the same series had won the 2012 Concours International de Chronometrie (CIdC) competition ahead of an F.P. Journe:

>>17888655

All watches in that pic are 38mm >>17888624
You just need to be shopping in Japan.

San Martin™ SN021-G-B3

>>17888661
It's just like the women i like, black and curvy.

>>17888663
that's a sports watch Tudor ripoff you dumb ass.

>>17888666
it's much better than the tooter

>>17888661
based, I prefer this version though

>>17888669
Why is it see-through though? There is nothing to look at.

>>17888667
It's literally a double cope watch. You're coping for the other cope.

Without having an identity of their own making only the cheaper knockoffs San Martin are a fucking embarrassment regardless of how good their product is.

>>17888661
>>17888669
Horrendously ugly, sorry

>>17888674

>>17888658
> How do you like it? How long have you had it?

Had it for a little over a year now. I like it a lot. It’s extremely comfortable because it’s so thin. The five day power reserve also makes it really convenient.
It’s pretty accurate, gains about 0.25 seconds per day, which I can live with. The lume is excellent, better than I expected given the small indices, but it glows brightly all night.

I did not like the stock sailcloth strap. It’s stiff and uncomfortable, so I put it on an old style Tropic strap, as it would have been in the 1960s.

>>17888672
so that I can observe the quartz crystals vibrating at a 262.144 kHz frequency that is eight times greater than the usual two-prong crystal and the highest of any watch available today

>>17888687

What's a respectable-looking watch that would survive a nuclear apocalypse? Casio digital internals wouldn't survive the solar flare.

>>17888706
Vostok Amfibia

>>17888706
whatever your neighbor was wearing before you ate him

>>17888677
Thanks. Did you cross-shop it against any other watches when you got it?

>>17888706
Any steel quartz would be fine

>>17888709
Wear a Vostok in my hood and you're getting ye olde stabberino.

Good evening /wt/ frens

>>17888465
Hi buddy, what's the price for the 20g gold bar and one 1/10 ounce coin? I'd like to do some price comparison between an actual country and my teletubby valley.

Got some clear cups for the herbal tea as well, comfy.

>>17888758
Yeah I wish. Sinn has good designs but they simply charge too much

>>17888758
It's a shame. German watches in general used to be a fantastic value. Sinn, stowa, damasko have also raised they're prices significantly. Stowa especially. I wanted flieger from them for a while, but cant really justify the price for one now. Nomos has increased too but they've kept it somewhat real. I'd like a club of a tetra one day.

>>17888560
What's better, the cream one or the black one?

>>17888783
last month I watched some tgv video about a stowa, it was around 600 and now that watch, three years later is on the 1000eur range.

I wanna buy two things for my edc in the (hopefully) upcoming sales which have yet to be enabled
a victorinox sd classic for my keychain and a casio (most likely)
that is all. almost bought a 5600 but it was fucking white idk if I wanna do that
this is all a citycuck needs for now.
this is a certified blogpost

>>17888775
Based citizen chad.
The 10g's cost exactly 602€
So that's 602×2 for the both.
The 1/10th ounce are tiny, the pure weight in gold is 3.1g and they go between 194€ and 209€ depending on which ones you get.

>>17888785
I like the cream one more, but it needs to be matched with the light blue dial one for my seiko collection.

>>17888849
Means it's not a fake

I don't get it, a Rolex owner has never congratulated a Casio owner on their wrist watch

It’s not working. It’s a dogshit watch at home with your other dogshit watches. You “like” the brand because you’re too poor and bad with money to afford good watches.
