An incredible feat, isn't it? Our best and brightest fashion school graduates here at Richemont hq finally came up with the idea to put an additional jewel in there somewhere.

>>17911564
Why do these have to be so big? I love the designs. All other dive watches look boring in comparison. They need to stop roleplaying and realize that no one is taking these watches to 1000m and stop making them so huge!

That's the point, sometimes I want it to look cheap.

Does anyone have any recent experience with Yema? I know they had issues with QC and customer service, but is that still the case? I've been eyeing this Rallygraf but am uncertain if it's worth the risk. This is one of the few red/burgundy watches at a reasonable price. No running seconds unfortunately...

Are zodiac even good? I feel like they’re overpriced and not as well made compared to other brands

>>17911603
Shitposting here is the biggest cope.

>>17911662
They say their watches contain "in-house movements" but that's misleading. Zodiac got bought by the Fossil group, which owns 51% of STP. Still, the movements aren't bad and the finishing on some of their models is really impressive, like the dial on the Olympos. Zodiac was once a serious competitor to Rolex, so if you want the corpse of that legacy strapped to your wrist, go for it.

>>17911350

>>17911625
I like sinn watches. Interested in a u50

>>17911612
If it was a French company making watches in Switzerland fine but that’s just a shitty French company with some admittedly cool marketing and dials

>>17911612
I purchase a Flygraf in July and have had no issues so far. Their site has a lot of positive reviews but you receive points towards their membership benefits for those so ymmv. I'd gauge you will most likely get a good product with no defects. I'm not certain what percentage of customers are represented by the bad reviews and then subsequent hating on WUS. I purchased heavily discounted during their summer end of line sale so I thought it was worth the chance and has been so far.

anyone have any suggestions for watches on the smaller, more minimalist/understated side? My budget is anything up to 5k, no real preferences in movement, size, or features, but would like a leather strap option

>>17911773
You want to put 5k on no real preferences?

>>17911773
Nomos or Cartier.

>>17911773
just hire 20 hookers and have the night of your fucking life

>>17911623
More like Shitiac Uglympos LOL.

>>17911773
Seiko Dolce, and spend the rest on whatever.

>>17911773
Just get an OP, explorer or datejust. Explorer or datejust are a little more than your budget but they're good looking, no nonsense, have everything you need in a 3 hand watch, recognizable, hold their value if you wanted to sell for something else, and will work with any 20mm straps you want to buy for them.

>>17911702
Does zodiac use STP movements? Im feeling like its overprice compare to longines which have a better movements

>>17911821
Longines is in a different price range. Zodiac is mostly sub 1000$. Tissot would be a better comparison.

>>17911334
they're okay but you have to find higher quality nato straps. the nasty ones are those that just feel very stiff, hardened and rough. I got two nice hemsut ones that are based. I prefer silicone straps though. anything seems better than leather which is often not very durable anyway. so nato straps are good like that.

Why doesn't Seiko use their 6L movements more? I don't wanna buy an overpriced limited edition or something for a nice high beat movement.

VC vs Lange, what watch would you choose?
Watches I like form vc: Traditionnelle, 1942 triple calendar, Cornes de vache chrono
Form Lange: Lange 1, Saxonia Moonphase, 1815 up/down

What would you choose? Is there something else that you prefer?

>bought a safe from costco to keep collection

>>17911839
The Vc looks sleek

>>17911625
I don’t understand. The fuck does this watch have to do with aviation. There is no other functionality than telling the time.

>>17911839
I'm not a fan of either to be honest. The Grand Lange 1 on the other hand...

Still if I were to buy an ALS I'd buy one used.

>new $70k
>a few months later
>shows up in the used market for $33k

It's a gorgeous watch inside and out but that instant depreciation is a big yikes from me.

>>17911848
precious metals, jewelry, and watches of course. you can also store important paperwork and some emergency cash in there. Also yeah you should have a firearm but I don't keep mine inside a safe

What watch is Andrew Huberman wearing here? IWC chrono of some sort?

>>17911865
>Also yeah you should have a firearm but I don't keep mine inside a safe
Well, there's a difference between the self-defense firearm vs the collectible antiques.

Much like other anons with mechanical watches and fountain pens and safety razors, I've got a couple of antique shotguns and rifles (19th century) because I like old things. Those are stored in the safe. The self-defense firearm is a fully-modern P30.

>>17911839
Lange, no contest.

>>17911901
not an IWC, if i remember correctly he likes the brand Bremont, pretty sure this is it, seems close enough

>>17911253

What do you guys think about this one? Seems like a lot of watch for the money. Really like the idea of the surface hardening especially for the crown and crown tube to essentially eliminate wear on the threads. Just worried that I would have to send it back to Germany in a few years foe service, and will this brand be around 10 years+ from now?

>>17911974
Damasko's been around for a while now, I wouldn't worry about that to be honest.

there isn't a single good watch here, let me save this thread

>>17911930

My dad used to wear this waych back in the day when we were poor, now im an adult and would like to buy him a nice version for christmas
Anyone know a watch with a similar color scheme and dial layout?

>>17911974
Don't buy Damasko or Sinn entry level watches. They are overpriced as fuck. They seem though but their antimagnetic resistance is shit, for example. If you like the aesthetic, look for Stowa or Archimedes, a bit cheaper and it's basicaly the same design. If you have the money, buy a mid range Sinn.

>>17912026
What the difference between sinn entry and mid level? What price ranges or models are you talking about

Anon who was in doubt between a c63, an Alpinist and a Willard here: I canceled the c63 order and bought the Alpinist.
The Willard is a nice watch and I pretend buying one in the future, but I have a 5kx, so, for now, it didn't make sense buying another (((diver style))) watch. The Alpinist is great. Got the regular SBDC091 for just under $500. Importing from Japan through a Chrono24 dealer.

I kinda want the Citizen Tsuksuyomi for the artwork alone.

>>17912066
I could go for the datejust since I'd guess it's as easy/hard to get as an OP, but what makes it that much better?
also fluted or domed bezel?
btw I just checked the website and the 39mm isn't available from rolex right now, so 36 it is.

I'm really having a hard time justifying another watch that isn't a Rolex. I kinda understand why some people have one Rolex that they wear everyday until they're dead. I kinda want another one a Root Beer, but my AD is being dicks.

>>17911488
You can’t buy these anywhere

>>17912125
>>can it do more than this DJ based on my use case
Most watches do the exact same thing and unless they're quartz or digital then they aren't that good at it. Watch collecting is 99% about buying shit you like the looks of.

>>17912132
TBQH I really like the looks of the Silver BB58, but then I would need to worry about cleaning the tarnish which doesn't come off with just water like a stainless/gold watch.

The swiss cheese model of me wanting something new and shiny always ends with, 'is it better than what I have now?' And it's always a no.

Loving my new watch bros. We’re are my hamiltonchads at?

>>17912136
Supposedly tudor uses an alloy of silver that's less susceptible to tarnishing. How much of that is just marketing fluff, who knows.

>>17912037
>alpinist

so what kind of npc queermo are you? the reddit tard coper coping with your shitty budget watch like it is a decent replacement for a real watch like an explorer. or the youtube budget guide buyer who has zero original taste outside of the cum you swallowed today? either way huge faggot watch to go with your dumb faggot brain.

>>17912137
Is this printed dial for 800-900 bucks?

>>17912139
Nah it tarnishes like a mofo.

>>17912144
lel, well I guess if tarnishing is something you're worried about then don't get the silver one.

I guess they lasted longer than I thought. I had the Seiko equivalent, their Kinetic line which died in 5 years. Seiko just throw away this entire line up of watches and pretended it never existed. Sucks because some of them have some pretty awesome design.

>>17912210
Nobody buys them, if you want a nice Sellita watch buy a C.Ward or Baltic or something.

Really debating getting a Bel Canto Cielo, they make beautiful watches.

one could argue that coping about your fugly strap is the real shitposting

>>17912213
Why don't they just lower the price if nobody buys them?

>>17912213
I wonder if other brand's movements like Casio's last as long. Citizen has a lot invested on the "Eco drive" slogan so it's no surprise that they last a long time but what about Seiko's plain "solar" watches etc.?

>>17912147
then wait a year or two, those unoriginal cunts can't help themselves but reuse the 5 things they have in their """catalog"""
couple more years and you could have the same shit in rolex form too

>>17912232
Who know,,, the same reason youtube shills are shilling cward and Baltic watches. All of these brands don’t make their own movement. And at the $1500 price range they’re getting into Nomos money, who does make their own movements.

>>17912233
Seiko went with Kinetic which is basically like a mechanical/quartz hybrid. It initially sold well but they’re just not reliable which led to a sharp decline for them. Thus it was killed off, Seiko did salvage a a bit of the tech and repurposed it into something called the Spring Drive movement. I doubt /wt/ ever heard of Kinetic or Spring Drive though.

>>17912235
if only they could design their way out of those horrible dials and cases
those at least have a finger on the pulse on what looks good or at least interesting, like the bel canto or the microrotor baltic

>>17912213
>Seiko just throw away this entire line up of watches and pretended it never existed.
As they should

>>17912238
The issue with Nomos is they’re trying to have a unified design, unfortunately that unified designed just made it look like poorfag Rolex.

>>17912217
I feel that. Im stuck between getting another hamilton or going for CW

>>17912237
I'm talking about solar. Kinetic is a silly gimmick. Seiko has a lot of solar watches.

It's been 35 days and my SW500 is running at 0.4 seconds fast if I'm mindful of the position I put the watch down on for the night. Who'd thought that massive positional variance can actually be a good thing?

>>17912309
your watch isn't running at 0.4 seconds per day, your autistic positioning makes it average out to 0.4 seconds a day
don't be like that retard who spends 3 hours every day positioning and measuring his watch just to post here "hurr durr it's been two months and my watch is only 1 second fast"

>inb4 some autist complains about seconds track being unnecessary bc it's not a chronograph

>>17912359
I like it because it adds the pop of red to the dial so it doesn't look too simple. A lot of non-colours-of-autumn GS model's can look a bit well... boring.

Why does my watch lose so much time if I don't wear it. If I don't wear it for a full day it will lose 5 minutes but if I wear it it might lose 30 seconds
Either way I plan on getting it serviced soon

Someone give me a quick rundown on Universal Geneve. What is its perception? Some of their offerings in $400-$600 seem rather interesting given in-house movements.

Really? I didn't know that, that sucks.

>>17912455
Former great brand that didn't survive the quartz crisis. Was revived as a worthless shitter brand

Im from Pakistan, here the average monthly income is under $200. So for these people literally any watch is a luxury when their phones can tell the time. We as watch enthusiast have a misplaced sense of watch prices. I asked a co worker how much he thought a rolex was and he said he knew it is really expensive so he thought they would be probably around Rs200k (under $720).

Should I go for a 18kt gold miami cuban chain (20 inches, 2.5mm) for around 1400 aud after import duties
Or both the gold and silver casio a1000 (the ones with the milanese bands) for around 350 and 2kg of pepper beef jerky for another 160?

watches are not technology bud

>>17912097
I'd bought a c63 sealander and canceled my order monday. They delayed the shipping a lot, and I pre-order it...
The main reason for the cancellation was due to the risk of them being made in China. It's a legit fear, as nowadays the Swiss Made genre is pretty vague and chink-monkeys have improved their watchmaking.

>>17912519
They quite literally are.

>>17912140

>>17912504
Not really. Stop caring so much about others opinions. There are amazing entry level luxury car, in the same way there are amazing entry level luxury watches. Real taste is not related just with money. Just look at those screw-burning Daytonas out there. I preffer 100% a Datejust or an OP, for example.

What's the other half?

Where should a watch sit on your hand? On the bone or behind it?

>>17912629
Behind it. You want it in a position where if you turn your palm straight out like you're doing a push up the crown does not jab into your hand, and so that twisting your wrist around doesn't create strain against your bracelet or band. It should be in a position where if you suddenly tripped and fell forward and caught yourself against the floor with your hands your wrist wouldn't strain against your watch and either injure your wrist or damage your band.

>>17912656

Same or higher. Price is not important really.

>>17912642
This is a great benchmark. Thank you, anon.

>>17912504
No. It's the equivalent of buying a watch because you like it.

>>17912685
Good luck. It honestly takes a little bit of trial and error figuring out exactly how you want to wear a watch and how to best adjust it. When I get a new watch I will start by taking out links and microadjusts until it's in a position where it's just about as tight as it can be without being obviously uncomfortible and chafing, then over the course of the next day or so if I need to I'll walk it out one position at a time until it's just right and I don't have to think about it anymore. Bracelets also do a thing during break in where they kind of accumulate oil and sweat and skin so that you can end up wearing them fairly loose but they'll still stick mostly where you put them when you let them roll up your wrist, or if you want to you can let it hang lower closer to your hand if you're wearing a long sleeve shirt and want to be able to see it. Just tinker a little here and there and be patient with it.
