out of date

half those people don't post anymore

will buy this chinkshit cuz it looks cool

Just posting a lume shot lads

Left or right?

Does anyone have any experience with the Orient Kamasu on small wrists (6.5 inches or less)?

>>17925662
Right but both are very nice

>>17925666
I love the right, and the right one actually is appreciating since there's some sort of 'shortage.' But at the store the right one even the Large version it feels a bit small on my wrist. While the Santos looks perfect.

>>17925662
tranny watch

>>17925662
Left one is an old man watch (tasteful though) and the right one is an equally tasteful woman's watch

>>17925671
I guess I am an old man...

Time to go

But which watch will fill the void in my life?

I find pretty much all Sinns extremely appealing, any alternatives for the poorfag? (less than $500)

>>17925683
What? Its a watch with no design. Literally open any watch store on aliexpress, sort by the cheapest option and there you have, your own sinn.

Got the call for a 36 mm explorer, picking up tomorrow. Fuck yeah

>>17925701
congrats, anon. how long did you wait?

>>17925689
Wish citizen did this watch.

>>17925709
Forever. I refused to pay the boomer tax. I've put my name on the waiting list at at least a dozen different Rolex ADs and ironically its an AD that I bought a Sneedmaster from.

>>17925715
How much

>>17925674
Why bother putting the 6 there if you're gonna cut it off with the display window anyway? What were they thinking?

>>17925726
This is why the no-numerals versions are better. Still looks awkward, but not as much since they're just lines.

This

>>17925727
True that.

Hamiltonchads unite!

>>17925730

>>17925753

>>17925786
Kang. Soon.

you guys ever think about getting your childhood watches? these are mine

>>17925825
Mine was this, and the f91w that i ruined the first day by submerging it under water. It had a cool feature where you could punch in the distance and when you ran the stopwatch it would give you the average speed.

>>17925825
>you guys ever think about getting your childhood watches? these are mine
Nah, caving to nostalgia is always disappointing. Just have kids and buy them their own shit instead. I bought my 3 yo son an F-91W, the classic children's watch, and he fucking loves it. Wears it everywhere. He's constantly eyeballing dad's "Rorex" though

What is your "one and enough" watch

>>17925871
Any Rolex.

>>17925871
That i own or that i wish i owned?

>>17925871
It was this one for me. I feel like this is my exit-game watch.

>>17925892

>>17925744
How we looking Hamiltonbros?

>>17925871
There isn’t one anon. For people that like watches you’ll always want some new shit. Even if I had a Rolex Explorer with the white dial which I love the look of, I’d probably want something new. My dad who’s not really much into watches told me when I started getting into it “don’t spend too much on watches you’ll probably get bored of it after a while”

guys I’ve been looking at vintage watches on eBay and love the look of this time, am I retarded?

>>17925898
Cheers fren!

>>17925926
This raketa I used to have unironically got the most random compliments of any watch I’ve owned

>>17925926
>>17925928
Could you post your full collection?

>>17925930
I’m not the “Cheers Fren” guy I’m >>17925928
this guy, but here ya go. I plan on selling everything but the Hamilton and airman (and Vostok probably)

>>17925933
Hamilton Chad...
I kneel.
Keep the Hamilton and Seiko prospex.

>>17925928
it is pretty attention-getting, isn't it? most people have never seen a calendar complication before, much less a Soviet one
>>17925930
here u go. I also have a 1950s anniversary clock. next purchase would probably be some sort of 2209 mechanism watch, maybe a Luch

>>17925938
I’m torn on the seiko, I may keep it as it’s perfect size wise and a beater, but I find it a bit boring to look at. Plus I have to buy more of seikos crappy bracelet pins with the fucking tube thing

>>17925941
2209 is based. Get left or middle if you can. Try to get a domestic market model.

>>17925941
That big 0 tho, fucking based. I like the Arctic explorer raketa too. I may get one for the fuck of it. My perpetual calendar one cost 50 bucks on eBay so why not

Saw an Omega Co-Axial being sold for 100 €

>>17925878
Whatever

>>17925923
>For people that like watches you’ll always want some new shit.
Not really

>>17925978
If you had your dream watch you’d never care to look or own another?

>>17925924
Also this one gd, apparently it has a “battery powered mechanical movement” that people say sounds really cool. May buy just for the sound

>>17925898
>/pol/tard
I'm not poltard you nigger, I haven't visited it for like a month, I start to feel bad every time I visit it, consider removing that and instead add the fact that I am twink

are black dials ok for everyday wear?

thanks to whoever suggested this to me few months ago, been liking it
only downside is the terrible backlight but it's whatever as it has lume

>>17926020
According to the internet hinvemind, they're actually the only option for everyday wear.

>>17925871
1016, but that will take some more time.

>>17926024

Zoomer nig speak brain rot ruining this watch for me

>>17925605
I want this but blowing 6300 on a watch sounds like the dumbest shit ever even if i can comfortably afford it

>>17925701
cancel it now and buy a dj bateman instead
https://youtu.be/IKejlix2lnY?t=1701
>>17925871
dj bateman into yellow gold dd

>>17926064
You are not Patrick Bateman.

Also, that is a good thing since, both in the book and the movie, Patrick Bateman was a loser.

>>17926061
>I want this but blowing 6300 on a watch sounds like the dumbest shit ever even if i can comfortably afford it
Then it seems you can't afford it THAT comfortably, either.

>>17926070
that's neat because the goal is to become Paul Allen

Instead of developing my taste over years of research and scrutiny I think I should have just bought a submariner and learned a sport or skill on this wasted time. I don’t even like dive watches now but I used to

>>17925993
>battery powered mechanical movement
Probably similar to Seiko Elnix.

>>17926024
Glad you like it anon. Fuck the backlight, i don't use it at all. One more thing, make sure you set the alarm or anything that beeps every now and then otherwise the beep will get muted and barely audible.

>>17926061

>>17926096
now that you came to that insight you could have traded in your sub for a dj and been on your way
or kept it, still good
>developing taste
only worth it if your goal is to impress old men who want your boipuss viriginity or online autists
for dabbing on normies the peak echelon starts and ends with rawlex
you could argue iced out aypees and pakeks is a higher echelon but I have a feeling a subset of the population will think you are homosexual for wearing these
which leaves us at the solid yellow gold rolex as the peak and final frontier of normiedabbing for all occasions, if you have this you have pretty much solved the game and there is no need to go further, your character is at their max level limit, you are now free to do side quests

>>17926104
Think I’ll just get an alpinist

>>17926111

>>17926096
Same. You can always get out, though.

For example, I completely successfully disengaged. I have an Apple Watch for daily wear and a VC for when I want to get dressed-up and impress people.

I still come here to watch the drama, but I don't care about watches anymore.

>Avatarfags
Lonely guys who just want to friendsim. They want to talk about their lives and use pictures of their watches to let you know who's posting. They don't use a tripcode because they know everyone will just filter them. They use their avatars as an excuse to post about their lives ("So what if I'm talking about something completely off-topic? I posted a watch in a watch thread.")
e.g. Mort, OmegaDrunk, Whoretadello

>Known posters
People post pics of their watches with context. They become recognizable because their collections are small enough, but don't post a pic with every single post so you don't even know when they're in the thread at all.
e.g. ALS Anon, Reverso Anon

>BitterAnon
Posters who derive amusement from how easily it is to get avatarfags in a state of sputtering rage.

>AvatarSimp
Lonely guys who would be avatarfags if only they had watches or a camera.

Citizen Eco-Drive is undeniably one of the most beautiful watches in the world due to its exquisite craftsmanship and innovative technology. The sleek and sophisticated design of the watch makes it an instant eye-catcher, while the use of high-quality materials ensures its longevity and durability. Furthermore, the Eco-Drive technology, which harnesses the power of light to operate the watch, sets it apart from other timepieces, making it environmentally friendly and eliminating the need for battery replacements. With its combination of beauty, functionality, and sustainability, Citizen Eco-Drive undoubtedly deserves the title of the most stunning watch in the world.

Do it! Omega Drunk! Do it! No one will miss you. The pain will be over. It will be painless, like slipping into a warm bath.

>>17926178
If it's discontinued it's usually cool.
Current production models have poor value with some exceptions.
Now that I think of it this rule goes for all Jap watches, maybe excluding Casio.

Omega Chad if you need to talk to a fren I'm always here for you.

>>17925986
That's what I said to myself after I got my first, but more dreams came by and more watches followed.

>>17926210
It's as good as a rolex. By which I mean the fanboi delusion is just as crazy as with rolex

>>17926131
This is the final state of enlightenment.

>>17925701
they give that watch to incels as a mercy flush to get them out of their stores. You WONT get another watch unless you play their cringe game and ask for a two tone black datejust diamond dial

>>17926130
>>17926178
Is there some kind of catch with buying grey from a Japanaese professional dealer besides shipping it’s like 250$ cheaper
Will i get raped on import fees or some bullshit?

>>17925921

>>17926248
u cop during the 11 11 or had longer? is it just werking?
these are hit and miss it seems

>>17926240
The catch is if you order grey you might be fucked by poor qc as you can't inspect in person. My date cyclops was all kinds of misaligned

>>17926253
got it a few weeks ago. went for a swim with it. works fine.

>>17926257
Cant this also happen ordering directly from seiko or american dealers

Late sixties serial redacter watch

>>17926264
Yes but buying in person lets you inspect it yourself

>>17926131
>apple watch
just say you're gay

>>17926240
I had to pay a few hundred ameribux to DHL when I bought a grand seiko from a japanese dealer

it ended up not being quite as cheap as I had hoped but it was still cheaper than buying from the GS boutique

I don't know if they bother collecting fees on something like an alpinist but I would just plan on paying the fee and if they don't charge you, buy yourself a nice bottle of wine, or if it was an alpinist, an ok bottle of wine

is this supposed to have a gasket ?

Got a compliment from the lady at the bank whilst depositing cash for work, feelsgood.jpg

first mechanical watch.
I like it, but I'm already looking at Seiko Weekenders lol

>>17926354
Yes. You can buy a bag with multiple sizes from Amazon for like 10 bucks if you don't know your exact size.

>>17926377
>Seiko Weekenders
The what?

>>17926380
Weekdaters lol

>>17926383
I forgive you.

>>17926283
Why? Are you in central Florida?

>>17926377
Your watch is not mechanical.

>>17926171
They probably think you joined Hamas.

>>17926396
still learning terms, didn't realize mechanical and automatic meant different things, I thought they both simply meant not battery-operated.

>>17926396
His Weekdater however will be.

>>17926423
>didn't realize mechanical and automatic meant different things
It does not, however your match is neither mechanical nor automatic, its quartz.

>>17926423
Fucking idiot, gtfo

>>17926431
eh, it's a learning process.
but yeah, I was picking between two, and I bought the quartz.

I own my shit.

>>17926423
Mechanical means exactly what it is, a mechanical watch. It can either be hand wound or automatic, or both. Automatic just means it winds itself via the rotor.

>>17926423
did you mean analog?
>>17926171

>>17926504
The one you want.

>>17926504
Get a new watch while you're there and wear that

I find myself wanting this chinese shitter. After all it looks cool, has carbon case AND doesn't have the usual retarded chinese naming. Chronologia sounds good.

>>17926527
Or this one, it is also nice.

>>17926543
This one is better, the other one has an ugly case.

>>17926546
I dunno i kinda like it. It has that rugged outdoorsman watch vibe.

>>17925662
depends on the situation, one is a sports watch and the other is a dress watch

who bought a lorier zephyr here?

ive got a hesalite speedy, but looking for a next watch. Im between -
5 digit submariner 4-liner 14060m
5 digit SEL explorer 2 black dial 16570
tudor black bay 54

which one?

>>17926613
How boring can you be?

>>17925152
I wouldn't do anything to than opal than maybe setting into a yellow gold, white gold or platinum ring. Without touching the stone, just setting it in as is.

>>17926616
i like boring, now choose!

>>17926643
tudor ranger then.

>>17926643
Too bored to do that, sorry.

>>17926613
Honestly Explorer 2. Least boring choice. Honestly, why not something with a splash of color?

>>17926613
Sub. Personally I dont like the explorer 2 and tudor is just weak shit

>>17926613
Black dial explorer fucking sucks, polar all the way
Sub is boring
Tudor is cope

Of the above I guess the sub is the least shit. If it were the 16570 white it's 0 question which is the choice

>>17926659
Explorer ii black has no color lol

Quick wrist watch check!
What are you wearing tonight?

>>17925599
Quick cognac check!
Rémy Martin VSOP tonight.

>>17926717
Isn't VSOP like the lowest tier? Not saying it's bad, just asking.

>>17926723
VS is the lowest which is 2 years, VSOP is 4 which compared to other drinks is still very young, but it's cognac.

Take care frens!

>>17926724
What's your favorite cognac anon

>>17926724
Ah yeah forgot about VS. I don't like cognac anyway, i prefer wine or beer.

Whyndo you post the same fucking watch a over and over all day? We don't forget what it looks like.

I accidentally set the date when the watch (new Seiko automatic) was at 10p.m.
Did I ruin the mechanism? It's my first automatic

>>17926796
It's possible. Try manually setting the time 24 hours forward and see if the date clicks.

What is the ultimate "I'm not a snob but know a thing or two about watches" watch?

>>17926805
Sinn/Tutima military chronograph with Lemania 5100 movement.

>>17925965
Did it come with a fresh battery installed?

>>17926805
Ten years ago, JLC.

I don't know what the answer is today, but it is absolutely NOT Grand Seiko. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. GS isn't necessarily bad, it's just the reddit user/hodinkee reader answer to that question.

>>17926805
JLC or if your poor Rolex

>>17926805
F91W

>>17926504
>Which watch should I bring with me?
a disposable casio to avoid losing valuables
>>17926594
...which is modeled after the dj
yes, we know
>>17926613
all shitters, new ceramic sub or bateman dj, or gmt2

>>17926821
Rolex is cheaper than JLC?

>>17926805
Maybe Lange, Vacheron or JLC
AP has the Royal Oak and Patek has the Nautilus

>>17926724
Oh shit a citizen chad pic that I haven't seen yet.
Did you shoot a new set?

>>17926836
Rolex is the cheapest way to impress someone poor.

Experimenting a bit.
Btw is it a good idea to take it with me to Japan? I know crime rate is non existent basically buuuut, I am still scared a bit. But I feel that AD's in Ginza and Ueno will take me more seriously if I wear this.

>>17926850

New watch came today but i meant to buy black not green.

>>17926858
You can't go wrong with a darkish green dial. And from the looks of it, it's a sunburst dial with a slightly metallic look. I like it.

>>17926860
Yeah it's not so bad but i'm not a big fan of green in general outside of on a plant. Ill probably return it for just the full black or the black with the blue and red dial

>>17926862
Obviously the most important thing is to like the watch yourself. If every time you look at it you think "I should've gotten the black one" then you better return it, yes.

>>17926863
I think I never took the hands a decent macro shot.

>>17926863
I did it on the prime try for 7 days thing so ill wear it a bit and see if it grows on me. I do like the metallic look of the colored ones compared to the black face.

new watch, what do you think?

>>17926874

>>17926874
Pretty nice, i dont like rubber bands though.

>>17926874
I dont like it
but my taste is objectively shit so thats means its probably good

Please help deciding between green or black Kamasu

>>17926906
Green

New watch opinions?

>>17926923
Giga hands with twink wrists, such a weird combo.
The watch is fine, what are the dimensions?

>>17926923
you ended up getting it, nice.

>>17926874
>>17926923
Finally some good watches in this thread.

>>17926923
i like the matrix one but this is nice too

>>17926805
>What is the ultimate "I'm not a snob but know a thing or two about watches" watch?
Probably JLC or Blancpain.

any clue what this is?

>>17926930
40,8mm x 34,7mm based on the site.
Yeah I guess I have to thank God for the combo

>>17926934
Thanks for noticing the posts and Im glad I got it

>>17926935
Thank you for the compliment

>>17926940
I do too but I got a little discount for it and I figured I could get green another day if I really want

Can you give me suggestions for a good smart watch?

>>17926975
Samsung Galaxy 6

>>17926985
Ty. Are the Fitbit sense 2 watches good?

>>17926993
As fitness trackers, they're pretty good. GPS connectivity is good too, but it eats the battery.

>>17926995
Alright I guess I will check out the Samsung galaxy, I just think it might be expensive but I will check.

Just left the AD. I already like this better than my sub. Smaller, lighter, 100m water resistance, same lume, better legibility. The bracelet taper is incredibly sexy. 36mm makes my 7” wrist look huge, can’t wait to put it on my dick. I’m never buying a 40mm watch ever again

>>17927005
Lume comparison to sub

How much do you coordinate the watch you wear with the days outfit, or do mostly use black/white watches that go with whatever? Seems like the color i see in these threads is mostly in the vein of accents.

>>17927005
Based, how long were you "on the list?"
>>17927017
I'm of the opinion that any white, black, silver, blue, or green dials work with anything and you only need to coordinate for other crazier colors like orange, purple or red

>>17927005
Beautiful piece. Did you try the 40mm? How was it compared to the 36 mm?

>>17927005
It's sad what they did to the classic 1016 Explorer (literal perfect watch). The numerals on the modern version make it look like a happy meal toy. Same with the Air King.

>>17927035
Looks like cheap shit.

>>17927035
>The numerals on the modern version make it look like a happy meal toy.

>>17927035
The numerals on the old version make it look like a happy meal toy actually. Just buy a smiffs if you like that look

>>17927035
Applied numerals make it look more up market.

>>17927046
Compared to the old watch, the new one looks more expensive, more jewelry-like, but less like the tough field watch it used to be.

>>17927025
2 years. Got my sub in July.
>>17927030
Yes, didn’t like it. 40mm felt soulless.
>>17927035
Funny, the old numerals looks more toyish to me. If you don’t have $80k for an original you could always cope with a Smith’s.


Here’s a dumb little desk photoshoot for you guys. It really fits the retro vibe. This watch fucks HARD, I love it. I’ll get some cockpit pics next time I go to work.

>>17927055
No one cares retard. Hope you die for Israel.

I'm not really into old guns. I do have a s&w m&p15, tho.

90's citizen that they covered the logo

>>17927077
Yeah, I don't like it either, but it is what it is. Still cheaper to wait than to pay scalper prices. M&P is a good rifle that will serve you well.

>>17925825
used to have something like this early in high school. The resin band broke. I also had a few random cheapo casios that also had resin bands that broke. Before that I had an Armitron digital watch that I'd had since elementary school. One time I lost it and I remember I found it a week later on the ground after it had rained a lot and it was still fine. I really liked that watch but I have no idea what model it was anymore.

I also definitely had some of those really simple kids watches but I don't remember what design was on mine, I was too young to remember

>>17927035
wow I like this one way more than the newer versions.

>>17926955
I have the samsung classic watch4 and I don't really have any issues with it. The always on eats more battery than I'd like but I know the newer versions don't have that problem. The most annoying thing about it is that the fda still hadn't allowed the blood pressure monitoring in the US.

what's the catch with the smiths everest?

>>17927114
It's a zombie brand owned by a retarded boomer and you can't order one easily iirc

>>17926955
Unironically pic. There are few watches that are considered tougher than a G-Shock, and this is one of them.

>>17927116
Do they make it tough to survive the pressure of shoving it up your ass and turning the vibrate on like I'm sure toddler fruit toy enthusiasts are wont to do?

>>17927116
Do you have any suggestions for men though?

>>17926955
garmin and suuntos

>>17927055
It's a beautiful watch. Congratulations

>>17926778
Why are so fucking bitter day after day?

Which one of these Speedy homage should I get?

Swatch - can be had for $400-$500 depending on color. Pretty shitty WR. Perfect size and the best Moonwatch homage out there since its literally designed by Omega.

Bulova - around the same price, new from Bulova or its retailers. Fucking hueg. Slightly better WR. Should have a better chronograph function. Doesn't look as good but seems to be made of better material.

>>17927055
>If you don’t have $80k for an original
80k? Really? lol

>>17927168
get the smaller bulova

>>17927170
There is no smaller one.

>>17927112
>the fda still hadn't allowed the blood pressure monitoring in the US.
lmao the numbers would be off the charts

>>17927171
theres the 45mm with date and the newer 43mm with no date, big still but smaller

>>17927168
Bulova, moonwatch is a happy meal toy

>>17927173
The one I posted was the 43mm...

>>17927175
yeah get it

>>17927174
Moonswatch*

>>17927153
Just get a Weekdater.

>>17927159
Can’t there be an issue of lead in cheap bronze watches?
Also bronze aged doesn’t look like gold at all, I think it looks better. I’d get a glycine bronze watch if I was you they have a very nice rose gold color for the first few months then dulls down slowly

>>17927168
If you wanna get a moonswatch get a knock off from DHgate,. No way that shit is worth 300 and most of the fakes I ordered had metal cases unlike the fucking real one

>>17927173
Why can’t they just make it 40mm ffs I know th why wanna be true to the astronaut look but the average dude buying it isn’t wearing a damn spacesuit

HOW WE LOOKING BROS

>>17927190
jager lee culture flip watch??

How do you guys travel with expensive watches? It doesn't help that LAX is the most anal TSA where they have you take off your watch and put it in a tray where they can easily grab them.

>has ''''expensive'''' watches
>doesn't fly private plane
oh no no no

>>17927224
I put them in my backpack
NEVER put your watch in a tray

>>17927244
No one is going to take your shitty Seiko anon.

No one will know or believe that I have the largest and greatest watch collection in /wt/ and it's only 1/2 complete

>>17927245
Nice try, Tyrone

>>17927169
Sorry, $70k + tip

>>17927259
Now show what regular 1016s are going for, not 6350s.

if you go into a watch dealer without the intent of haggling and just buy at the first price of something they offer you (assuming you actually want the thing ofc), are you getting screwed on price or are dealers generally pretty fair on the prices they offer?

>>17927269
Start off with half MSRP, like if they say this Submariner is 9k say you’re only paying 4500 then maybe work your way up.

>>17927269
you will absolutely get screwed that's how they make money

>>17927263
I didn't say 1016. I said original. 6350 was the original reference.

>>17927263
But I'll humor you, the average price of the 1016 is $18,883.46

>>17927224
Just don't go through security

simple as

>>17927285
You didn't specify 6350, you just said "original" when replying to a post talking about the 1016. To anyone that isn't an autist that would just be meant as you talking about the 1016.

>>17927286
Was avout to say, a decent condition 1016 will go for less than 20k.80k will probs get you one in great condition with a tiffany stamp. A Space Dweller sold recently for an obscene amount of money.

>>17927168
How the fuck is the Bulova a Speedy homage??

>>17927298
Its not. But the Lunar Pilot is a homage to the Speedmaster alternative. Its still a Speedmaster cope watch imo

>>17927317
I like the design, but in the cream dial.
It doesn't have the dumb lines on the dial or any sunburst.
Vastly superior.

The website doesn't show this cream version anymore though, only a grey one.

>>17927328
These two things that you mentioned keep this watch from being perfect. It's not a thick watch by any means, but I know they can do better, I mean credor exists so- I guess it could be 1mm thinner.
The bracelet though, well there is no sugarcoating it. Don't get me wrong, compared to "normal" watches at different price points (1000€-3000€) it's better of course. It's thicker, symmetrical, shinny, wider and it just "feels" better. But at that price proint, MSRP 9500$, this is riding a thin line of not being acceptable. I could forgive it if it had micro adjustment or a butterfly clasp (like my two other much cheaper watches, the credor and the black bay ceramic).
If the dial, the movement, the finishing, the case- are a 10, the bracelet is maybe a 6.
The lack of micro adjustment is what almost killed it for me, considering that watches at 300$ have them.

>>17927368
Sup brah. When are you going to Japan?
Either take the Presage or the GS. Would be pretty ebin to see the white birch on a jap hookers ass tbqh.
I did a new set fucking around with the mirror and with the Rémy on the bed. Quite like it how it turned out. >>17926717

>>17927387
Ι αm αctually thinking of taking the Credor with me, considering it's a GMT. Either that or the Tudor because it's hard to scratch.

>>17925898
Βased, thank you for the thorough lore update.

>>17925730

>>17927413
So are you going to bring anything back? How will you deal with the customschuds?

Still need to see the coins bro.

>>17927387
Oh, I'm flying tomorrow morning.

>>17927418
It depends if I find any good deals. Same with my white birch. There was no way I was going to buy it MSRP (10000€) but I found it 22% off, so I bought it. If I see a Kuon for 5K, I am buying it, if I see an Eichi for 30K no Joke, I might buy it etc.
It depends on the deal and not the watch per se. I am not going with buying in mind though, that's why I'll take a watch with me.
About the Cuckstoms, I will see what I can do. I have friends there that could send me my watch via mail and I'll wear the new one or vise versa.

>>17927422
>send me my watch via mail and I'll wear the new one or vise versa.
This has the highest risk of you getting fucked over by customs bro.

>>17927424
Hmmm, can we not play the "it's a gift"-card?

>>17927427
>>17927424
I assume the best play is to fly without a watch, return with one on the wrist and just send the empty box home via mail

>>17926240

Problem is that there is no way to be sure about real price. When I tried buying grey for a jap watch, the website said shipping and custom taxes and VAT included but eventually the custom called me asking for the VAT money and that would have made the watch as expensive as in my domestic market.

Website had good reviews.

>>17927430
Trust me I know. I got fucked hard with my Credor. It was1800€ and until it got on my hands, It went up close to 2300.

>>17927427
Sure you can try, watches are light weight..
But is has the be declared as a very low value gift and if they scan it and see a 10k watch inside you'll be charged with tax evasion and stuff.

>>17927435
Well, Somebody has to pay for all these wars.

where is it supposed to go? I figure it should be around the crystal and on top of the edge of the metal hole holding it but then the bezel kinda doesn't fit it seems?

>There are few watches that are considered tougher than a G-Shock, and this is one of them.
>and this is one of them.
Yeah, right. My god the mental gymnastics this fucking morons do yo buy all apple shit.

>>17927311
The red seems a bit too bright as this will probably be my general every day watch. Might end up getting the black dial with the blue and red bezel as the all black one is a bit bland and i have other black watches. The green is growing on me a bit

>>17927340
forgot, but search Neo Classic Sports
they have 3 colorways
>>17927861
yes, although red pops out, maybe it's not for everyday wear.
get what colorway satisfies you the most.

>>17928489
thanks, it's a really nice looking watch
