I work in Television & Film, dummy. And I havent passed out since my 20s.

You got the drunk part right.

Bought my first automatic this week. Pretty happy, I'm gonna wear it 24/7.

>>17904972
This is what the general is now. Get used to it.

>>17904939
imagine not just getting a Gucci quartz watch with the house web nato strap because girls love that shit. Can't relate.

>>17904975
That just means your posts are boring and your watches suck.

>>17904978
I could prove you wrong but then I might get added to the list, so suck my cock instead.

>>17904970

Ranking known collections:

1. Mortadello
This isn't up for debate, is it?

2. Nobully anon
Extremely tasteful watches, regardless of who paid for them.

3. Reverso anon
Tight collection with no weak points.

4. Poortadello
The Citizen 0100 and Maddox Grail don't outweigh the fact that the rest is just a bunch of boring Omegas.

5. Vintage Chrono Anon
The vintage Heuers make it a close call between him and Poortadello. The extent of his collection isn't known

6. Whoretadello
A (non-Eichi) Credor and a Tudor, but not much else

Doesn't nobully only have 3 watches

>>17904992
This seems overall correct but, are there no other worthy collections?
There must be some more.

>>17905039
But they are all Vacheron Constantin.

>>17904992
Where's the anon with the Lange Up/Down?

>>17905041
I thought it was only two but the Cornes De Vache is extremely cool

>>17905050
And there's someone with a Lange 1.

>>17905060
That's lawyersama.

>>17905062
There was someone else with a gold Lange 1. I think their parents bought it for them.

>>17905050
>Where's the anon with the Lange Up/Down?
He wisely keeps a low profile. There are one or two other people who have Langes who do the same.

>>17904911
Got this beauty incoming from beautiful Clearwater, Florida. Scored it for only $1050! What does /wt/ think of my first real watch?

Could I have gone cheaper, /fa/?

wanting to buy my first mechanical watch
is this a good chink watch for $146?
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2255800717151028.html

>>17905144
First mechanical watch? Buy a Rolex
>it's too expensive!
No it isn't. Rolex is underpriced. You're losing money by not buying Rolex and you're gaining money by buying Rolex. Buy Rolex. I know more about watches and life than you. Your life will be better once you own Rolex. Buy Rolex.

>>17905149
B-but I don't watch Formula One racing!!
Or golf!!
Or both!!!

>>17905144
It is an awesome watch for that kind of money. The main problem is that having it serviced is far more expensive than just buying a new one.

>>17905149
ROLEX-SAMA...

>>17905156
how often do they need to be serviced? ive only had casio digitals

>>17905165
don't service it, just throw it out and buy a new one (or a diff watch) when it stops working. the meme is 3-5 years, but i don't service any of my watches and i have several that are running longer than that

>>17905040
People with only a single watch don't really have collections.
Others who have collections have never posted pics of them.

>>17905050
>Where's the anon with the Lange Up/Down?

He only posts a pic when he feels like flexing. Otherwise he stays anonymous.

>>17904916
Just because you keep posting this stupid picture doesn't make it correct.

>>17904992
I feel sorry for Reverso anon. The mistake he made was posting his whole collection. Now he's lumped in with the other assclowns even if he doesn't want to be.

>>17905193
>Just because you keep posting this stupid picture doesn't make it correct.
Which "Big Boy" watch do you own?
I'm guessing you fall into that category because only owners of those watches seethe at that pic which, of course, makes it completely accurate.

>>17904916
I don't understand why Orient owners are supposed to be seething.

>>17905193
People on /wt/ come up with one pic and then run it into the ground by reposting it every 6 hours.

What would you do if you purchased a watch from a physical store location and later you realized they gave you the wrong box with an instruction booklet for a much, much more expensive and complicated watch that whoever buys said watch will definitely want?

>>17905195
I don't own any of them but there's so much retarded about the picture. To pretend AP is somehow a cope brand that's considered in a tier for losers, while Grand Seiko is a cool pepe with sunglasses on the same tier as A. Lange & Sohne? Completely retarded. And the more I look at it the more retarded I think it is. Nobody, and I mean nobody, is congratulating a San Martin owner on his Chinese homage watch. Certainly not a Rolex owner who owns the watch that the San Martin is blatantly ripping off. And JLC, one of the most respected watchmakers on the market, is on the same tier as an Invicta? INVICTA?!?! The biggest joke in watch making?? Fuck off

I could go on but I think I've made my point

>>17905211
>I could go on but I think I've made my point
Yes, your point is that you're seething. A point well-made, indeed.

>>17905212
The meme is retarded and incorrect is my point. Those watch brands do not belong grouped together and have no basis on the meme images they are grouped in.

>>17905196
>I don't understand why Orient owners are supposed to be seething.
That meme has been around for years.

>Helicopter
Owners are guys who are pleased with their watch and are unaware of how any other watches relate.

>Pink guy
Owners are guys who are frustrated that no one understands how cool their watches really are.

>Left Pepe
Owners made an unassailable choice

>Right Pepe
Owners made an unassailable choice in luxury watch

>Smartwatches
Self-explanatory

>Big Boy
Owners are guys who made a cope purchase, regardless of actual dollar amount, and seethe because everyone knows it.

>>17905220
How is AP a cope? For many people a Royal Oak is their holy grail watch? It costs 6 figures, more than most people make in a year. AP is one of the "Holy Trinity" of Swiss luxury brands.

>>17905220
This clears things up a lot. Thank you.

>>17904911
What are you wearing today frens?

>>17905222
>AP is one of the "Holy Trinity" of Swiss luxury brands.

>>17905222
A once-proud house reduced to second-tier status among luxury watches by virtue of having only a single good design in the last 50 years and milking it to death.
Every non-RO has been a total flop. They might as well just rename the company Royal Oak.

Buyers try to convince themselves that they've got a Holy Trinity watch but what they actually have is a rapper's watch not much different from a Hublot. ...or do you think picrel is defensible?

People will start talking about Richemont next

/wt/'s opinion on the spb313 / spb317 'slim turtle' ?

>Poortadello
>Whoretadello
>Mortadello

So the same no talent loser pushes some no clever names and you people are all using them?

>>17905228
It is though. What kind of car do you drive? I bet it costs a fraction of a Royal Oak. The price of a Royal Oak can buy you a nice house in some countries.
>>17905229
>Buyers try to convince themselves that they've got a Holy Trinity watch
But they do? This general is out of touch with reality

>>17905235
>>17905235
yes, its /wt/

>>17905222
>AP is one of the "Holy Trinity" of Swiss luxury brands.

Let's see.

>Patek
Old-world watchmaking in classic designs plus a sports watch whose immense popularity they're actually embarrassed by. Would prefer to make dressy minute repeaters

>Vacheron
Old-world watchmaking in classic designs, largely held back by the perception of being stuffy and old-fashioned. Still, they have two considerably popular sports watches.

>AP
A Royal Oak. A different Royal Oak. A Royal Oak on a rubber strap. A Royal Oak with a cartoon character on the dial.

>continues to bitch about avatarfags
>doesn't know how to filter people
How new are you? Maybe reddit is more your jam.

>>17905237
Thanks for letting us know what your dream watch is, Tray'Quan. No matter what we say, the important thing is that Taneesha and Chanel are impressed.

>>17905239
Honestly I think ALS tops all 3. Jelly of ALS-anon.

>>17904911
Post a more beatiful watch than this.
You can't, it's impossible.

>>17905244
True. But not they're not Swiss. Obviously they're in the same class. They've just only been around since like 1990, though.

Ouch

>>17904996
Not so fast

>>17905239
There's nothing wrong with a brand being known for their most popular item. When you think of a Porsche you think of a 911. When you think of a Rolls Royce you think of a Phantom. etc etc

>>17904911

>>17905252
Ugliest bracelet of all time

>>17905009
Where does longienes fit here

>>17905251
Look at their catalog. They don't make anything else except for the Cope 11.59 which has been a humiliating sales flop. They don't want to be the Royal Oak company, but if they stopped making them, they'd last a few months before going bankrupt.

>>17905253
>Having this much lack of taste.

Anyways gonna sleep, kys commie.

Hello based Homos Chad and Omega drunk, what are you wearing, frens?

>>17905254
It's already in Quasi-luxury. Left-most column, third from the top.

>>17905243
I'd argue Rolex is the most sought after watch from low class black people, if you are trying to make that assertion towards AP. But Rolex doesn't seem to get flack on here for being liked by poor blacks.

>>17905259
That was probably the case in the 90s, but hip-hoppers have discovered brands that are even more expensive (and thus, impressive).
The Royal Oak holds a lot of appeal on social media, so they all know what it is.

>>17905263
People think Royal Oak is the brand

>>17905258
Huh, i should probably consider new glasses before buying one.
Im thinking master collection

>>17905239
Regardless of their design choices AP is still in the top echelon of serious watchmaking. Pic related, the perpetual calendar flyback chronograph tourbillon grand and petite sonnerie...

>>17905266
Might as well be.

>>17905257
Doesn't matter how many angles you photograph it from -- it will always be ugly

>>17905272

>>17905274
The sobbing vigor with which anon has come to the defense of AP proves without a doubt that it's appropriately placed.

>>17905279
That's a lot of unnecessary thickness added onto the watch.

>>17905121
Fellas... Blogposting here
I used some electrical tape and unscrewed the backs off of both of my fake rolexes and adjusted the vr3186 movements to be within 10 spd, probably the best I can do without a full service. Another one had a weird thing where the crown was a little off center and it caused the jumping hour hand to "slip" and not engage. Removed stem and crown, regressed, and reinserted. It now is straight and engages reliably.

Certified watchmaker bros

>>17905284
There is an unholy amount of autism going on with just the caseback to achieve the desired chiming tone.

>>17905266
Nooo! We have plenty of great designs that aren't the Royal Oak. Take this, for example. It has a double curved sapphire and an octagonal midcase that echoes the Roy-- oh fuck.

>41mm across, 12mm thick, only 30m WR, BTW. Same size as a Submariner.

>>17905284
That watch is not actually designed to be worn regularly, to be fair. It's meant to be an investment that stays in the safe.

>>17905286
So the sound travels through the glass back?

>>17905291
resonates through the case itself to the second caseback.

>>17905287
What the FUCK were they even thinking?

>>17905291
There's no glass back IIRC.

>>17904911
Is there anything that is a nice fashionable/luxury watch that is an traditional analog watch but is able to get a buzz for phone notifications and be used to find your phone? I want to use my Breitling or other nicer looking watches but the convenience of my smart watch is hard to ditch especially when most people don't even notice ice things

>>17905317
as a matter of fact...

>>17905318
a real luxury status marker is not having to respond to notifications

>>17905165
I have a seiko that is going on its 8th year. I do adjust it once in a month and that is it.

>>17905355
kek, that's clever.
my light research places them at the very entry level for Swiss watches, but that doesn't make them inherently bad, surely.

I just wanna make sure it shouldn't have sold for 60 or some shit.

>>17905351
Not really, I mean you're not going to wear an SKX or G-Shock to a tux event but that doesn't mean you need to buy an expensive watch. You don't need a Cartier, Reverso or Calatrava. You can make due with something like this. IDK what Seiko this is, but since its not a Grand Seiko it's probably like what? Under $500?

>>17905364
Is that strap plastic lmfao?

>>17905366
I don't know much about Seiko besides owning an SKX and some others that broke, I just googled 'Seiko dress watch.' I like how it looks but I would definitely change the strap. IIRC the watch is nicknamed 'Cocktail Time,' a deep brown espresso alligator strap would look pretty good on it.

>>17905366
the stock strap on that watch is notoriously shitty. it's supposed to be leather

>>17905373
>>17905375
So you're going to buy a strap that costs more than the watch itself lmfao?

>>17905362
They are fine watches for the pricepoint. Perhaps a bit overpriced, but that's the cost of the "Swiss Made" label (which is pretty much bullshit anyway but that's another story)

Enjoy the watch.

>>17905378
there are $300-400 straps?

>>17905378
I just don't think the stock strap looks good. I can also appreciate a Seiko without wanting to buy one. And you don't need to buy a luxury grade strap, a Hirsch alligator embossed strap can be had for $60.

>>17905387
NTA but you would be surprised how much expensive shit you can find

I saw a sharkskin leather strap that was hand made going for around that price. If you buy a strap from a high end brand like Patek it is going to cost even more than that just for the logo on the buckle.

>>17905388
>Hirsch alligator embossed strap can be had for $60.
So a fake strap again lmfao? You think people can't spot that lmfao?
>>17905387
LMFAO noob poorfag loser hope ur still in middle school or some shit.

>>17904570
Ah, but don't you love it that I keep coming back?

>>17904591
Thanks Rolex-chad, but it's okay; I've been here for long enough to know that sometimes BitterAnon just needs to vent a bit, and if I can help make his life better through the process, then it's a win-win. I won't be here for long though; too much to do. If I miss you, I'll catch you another time.

>>17904646
It's actually a Zenith, and it uses the 5011K movement which was considered the most accurate movement of its class before the quartz crisis. The design was a combo design by Zenith where they took heavy inspiration from Breguet; the case is silver, and it has a display back. It's absurdly accurate; over the year, it performed better than my 0100. It was not expensive at the time, but I think the prices have gone up lately. It's certainly not "200-300" as the other Anon stated....lol The Waltham however will be around 1400 or so, depending on the condition of the dial and movement, since it's a Vanguard in side-winder configuration (which is more rare than the standard crown-at-12).

>>17904648
Yes. See here.

>>17904671
Yes, though now I don't run it unless I am using it during the day. I wanted to do the 1-year running thing against the Citizen just for shits and giggles, but now I wind it only when I want. The poor moonphase though is not close to reality now...lol

>>17904834
I've tried on both several times; quite honestly, the Breguet makes me feel emotions, but the Patek leaves me cold.

>>17904927

>>17905412
Not for that poorfag watch no just tie it with a string around your tiny little limp poorfag dick when you go fuck your sister in Prabhubadistan or whatever the fuck third world shithole you're from that you think this is worth not only wearing but buying a separate strap for.

imagine wearing a watch purely only for the visual look of it on your wrist, can you say "i'm going to Hell' any more succinctly, you are lost in "the World" brother, it's time for you to repent and come towards Christ your King. That's all I can say, but in Heaven many mansions await you, if you repent and give yourself to God and Jesus Christ. You might think I am joking but this is no joke, your treasures in this earthly realm will all gather dust and rust and be eaten by crawling things and moths, the real treasure is not of this world. If you agree with me, respond accordingly but know that God is watching and he will judge all of us

>>17905513
they have some automatic models too like the speedy reduced. but the moonwatch specifically was designed to be manual wind because an automatic rotor wouldn't work as effectively in the zero gravity environment of space

older models have autos so it's no point in the current one being manual even given the which I am going to adress in this next reply:
>>17905535
>but the moonwatch specifically was designed to be manual wind because an automatic rotor wouldn't work as effectively in the zero gravity environment of space
last time I heard this was a fucking meme and not true even since the movement would be plenty to move the rotor around, making it even MORE retarded since it actually has zero function for not being manual wind in space or on fucking earth
atleast that is what some yotubefaggot said in a video I think, or I read it somewhere
and you can still manual wind a auto so, pointless, double pointless
go ahead, give me one defense for the sneedmaster to be manual except the fact that you can see the backside better

I just bought a wool coat, no watches for me for black friday.

Just got my adult autism diagnosis. Would like to buy a watch to celebrate, have about 3k Swiss Francs to spend. I am socially retarded so don't want to buy an Apple Watch like most Swiss.

>>17905878
>Credor. Anything you can find with an exclusive movement.
Just look for anything that says "Micro Artist" or "Micro Artist Studio" on it. Usually engraved on a movement plate or caseback.

Those are the very best watches Seiko can make and, in many ways, the best anyone can make. Seiko hired Francois-Paul Journe to set up their facilities.

Anything else, you're just buying catalog-filler junk.

Like what >>17905858 said. Something like that, or a Kurono would be much more special, more Japanese. The entire lifetime output of their companies are less than what Grand Seiko produces in a single year for one model.

Just buy it if you like the look? Personally none of them stand out to me. Like if someone were to wear one and walk past me, as a watch-person I wouldn't think twice about it. Nothing unique about it. I'd sooner ogle watches like Serica's 5503 (Soprod sucks) or one of Spinnaker's Bradner because the bezel is unique as fuck but the dial is generic and the beads of rice bracelet looks cheap. But that's just me. And as a rule I don’t do Microbrands.

Cool! Thanks, m8. Nice collection.

Bros I asked my normalfag acquaintances which colour to pick and they ended up just telling me that they think the GMT master 2 is ugly in any colour...
Pretty wild how judgement can differ.

Guys how do you go through TSA with a watch? Like here in LAX we get TSA agents and nogs running around stealing things off the trays. Do you put it in your locked carry on then take it out once you get through security?

>>17906160
They're not wrong.
>>17906163
They've never made me take my watch off.

>>17906134
I saw one of those in store yesterday and boy are they fucking massive. What, like 48mm diameter?

>>17906165
I'm starting to think the standard GMT watch look with the big moving bezel and all actually just looks ugly to non watch people.

I think you’re just a weak fucking pussy. But I may be wrong.

new to these threads, why all the Japanese dicksucking?

>>17906174
They've always explicitly told me to keep it on. Might be different in your neck of the woods/ pre-check vs non-prechecked. I mean if they tell you to take it off, how hard is it to just toss it into a pocket in your backpack?

>>17906175
It looks far larger, but then again it isn't a dive watch so the dial takes up all of that diameter

>>17906160
most normies think toolwatches look huge and bulky and shitty
that's my general consensus
big booty whores love iced out pakeks and ayypeez, and rolies

>>17906177
Swiss will fuck you over with their pricing. They're more oriented to marketing and branding. Japs can't into marketing and branding and therefore have better value.

>>17906177
Japan is based

>>17906191
so they're less expensive?
I guess that makes sense.

still seems weeby though.

>>17906177
anime website.

>>17906196
Definitely less expensive. You get into weeb territory when you have kanji date wheels and stuff. I'd say you're pretty safe with Japanese watches.

>>17906177
Omegadrunk is worth 3 generals worth of Swiss dicksucking, even if it is just one brand.

I dunno why I even entertained the thought of expecting something, but as someone new to the hobby Black Friday seems mostly uneventful.

Isn't this movement and every watch that uses it relentlessly mediocre?

>>17906256
Yea the NH34 which is used in most of the SKX and microbrands are so much better. No idea why Seiko decided to change it.

>>17906173
That's why you wear jewelry you like and say fuck everyone else.
>>17906163
I think generally people pack their more valuable pieces in watch rolls.

>>17906263
I think that's what I'll do, just bought these carry-ons and I'll just keep the watches in the locked compartment.

>>17906177
Japanese watches are of lesser quality and thus, of lesser value, so they are cheaper. Since there's a lot of poorfags here, the dicksucking is a cope response to being unable to afford a good swiss watch.

>>17906256
yes and sometimes seiko puts it in $1000+ plus watches

>>17904967
see the upper crown guard? it pokes your hand. turns out this position is even shittier than the normal one.

>>17905144
No. Go to a store and try on hand. This should be in the OP.

>>17906275
loosen it a bit using the microadjust and move it up?

>>17906262
The NH34 are 30 seconds +/-, the NH35 are 20-25 +/-. For that kind of accuracy you need to give up some reliability. Here's a comparison to something like a $10,000 Grand Seiko, the movement in there is guaranteed to be within 10-15 seconds +/- a day.

>>17906242

>>17906285

Got a KANG the other day, mostly like it pretty well except I wish the bracelet had a little more fine adjustment and sometimes the glare on the crystal is a little ridiculous.

>>17906287
>The NH34 are 30 seconds +/-, the NH35 are 20-25 +/-. For that kind of accuracy you need to give up some reliability.
>For that kind of accuracy you need to give up some reliability.
Uh.... no?

>>17905943
That would be within spec and not a problem. Unfortunately mine has a mechanical issue where certain angles can completely stop the balance wheel. The TMI NH35 movements I use in my paper dial watches don't have this issue; this should be embarrassing for Seiko. I should see if the NH35 balance cock assembly fits on the 6R35 caliber and try that out just to see if it's just the balance wheel assembly or if it's something in the train of wheels. I would prefer to not have to strip everything down and clean it so hopefully just removing the balance cock and cleaning/lubricating the cap jewels is all it takes. I really want to wear that watch more often because I love the dial and the lume is gorgeous but if it doesn't tell the time properly it's not worth actually using yet.

>>17906295
