Did you end up getting the GMT?

Secret pedophile ring time

>>18292554
Hey man, no, not yet but I'm thinking about it. The "begged" me to buy it in a sense. I assume because it's not the Pepushi Vaazon.

>>18292556
Did you try it on? How do you feel about the look on your wrist? Do you find the case as obstructively thick as I do?

>>18292556

roach GOT FUCKED THIS WEEK

Great start to this thread the fags are sending valentines to each other

>>18292557
Well it was the first time that I was Not underwhelmed by Rolex, but I wasn't wow'd either. It fits well and the clasp is great, the bracelet was a bit too thin I guess but overall for that price it felt great. No complaints really.
I will take pics next time I guess but I don't know if I really want it. It didn't click with me like the Moser and I promised myself I won't ever buy a watch again that doesn't make me smile the moment I see it or try it on.
That's the reason why I got the blue moser and not the green one.

>>18292567
Makes sense; I think the Pepsi might catch your eye more; I still see it as the ideal GMT from Rolex.

Well, keep trying them on, and make sure to try on earlier generations of them too; they all wear differently.

I too only tend to buy watches that make me smile on a first try, even if I'm in a terrible mood. The Speedy always did that, as did the Seamasters. There's a certain magic when it happens. Good luck in the search!

Thinking about making this my first watch… besides my dads old iron man. Thoughts?

If you really want it, then it should look ok on your 7.5" wrist. I have a Pagani, no issues so far. Seiko VK chronograph mov't inside. If I were to get that model, I'd choose the black/gold dial.

The same Chinese factories also produce Swiss watches, that's why they're good at it.

I own a super rare Seiko which is one of only 800 pieces ever made.
Can anyone here beat that in terms of rarity? Didn't think so.
Get shit on, Rolex fags.

>>18292181
>GS IS nice and they have some cool movements but their case designs ruin almost all of their watches they are way to big and chunky
This honestly just isn't true.
The absolute vast majority of GS watches have been 39-40mm wide and 12-13mm thick.
Which is absolutely the norm for this type of watch.

what are best sub 1000 eur pilot watches? i like simplicity and legibility. bonus points for every euro under the budget
extra bonus points if the manufacturer was making wristwatches for nazi army / luftwaffe during ww2

If you're going to go under a thousand, you might as well just go with San Martin or some other brand like that. The difference between a 200.- watch and a 900.- one is irrelevant.

If you have the ability to save a little longer and are willing to buy used, you can get the actual IWC for well under 3,000.-

It's lovely to talk about watches; you should post yours and join the discussion! If you've had first-hand experience owning a GMT-II, your experiences with it would be invaluable to CredorChad as he decides on whether to buy one for himself.

>>18292839
It depends on what it is. If you were to ask me about Vintage Speedies, then I could actually help you; unfortunately, Helvetia is outside of my knowledge-base. There are Anons here who know a shit-tonne about vintage Polerouters, Bulova Space-views, Grand Seiko, etc....but if you don't get an answer, it's probably because no one here has looked into it.

>>18292851
It's a great watch! The only thing I don't know about is servicing, as I haven't had to send my Citizen in yet. It could be easy, it could be difficult....

Is this 43mm diameter 14mm thick shitter certified pure class?

>>18292853
Nice headcanon. I guess this is how you can cope with the situation as a whole knowing that he owns a perpetual calendar and you don't.

>>18292934
It's 2.1mm thicker than the accepted thickness.

>>18292792
Is that a Pulsar?

>>18292976
The GMT hand is kind of neat looking.
Looks like a watch from the 1960s, which the design probably is.

>>18292980
It is, but the nee movement allows for setting the 12 hour hand and 24 hour hands independently from one another, so it's an upgrade.

Now here's the real issue

>>18292976
>>18292987
It looks nice. Too bad the case is entirely polished.

You don't need the Explorer. You can wear the Patek casually. Sports watches are dead.

>>18293272
It doesn't even have a bracelet though, and it would look weird on different straps. Your every day watch should be workable with either a bracelet or rubber straps so you don't have to worry about them getting wet. Pateks are too delicate and have leather straps, they're not suited for day to day knocking about for most people.

>>18293277
>they're not suited for day to day knocking about for most people.
People wear watches on leather straps daily and have done for over a century.
If you're worried about knocks and splashes, you should not buy a Patek. Those watches are for people who can be trusted to take care of their possessions.

>>18293282
Not being suited to knocks and scratches is the point. Your daily watch should be suited to that stuff.

>>18293284
I think you're missing the point.
You can wear a precious metal watch daily. Even the fragile ones can take a beating. You don't have to baby these things.
Picrel is the watch I've worn basically daily for the past eight years. I've beaten the bag out of it. Sure, it's banged-up, but even a supposedly soft metal like gold is tougher than people think.
30m of water resistance means it can still get dunked accidentally.

In those instances where I expect my watch to take more of a beating, like rock climbing or something, I have a G-Shock for that.

If you're going to spend the money on a Patek, why keep it locked away to only wear on special occasions. Wear it. If it gets too bashed, Patek can always bring it back to like-new for you.
Enjoy your shit. If you spend too much time worrying about it, you no longer own it; it owns you.

>>18293293
Nobody said don't wear it.

man you guys are a bunch of cocksuckers

got a nice deal on both of these seikos (snk381 and snk361) but i'm still undecided, thoughts?
I'm leaning towards the snk381 because I like numerals, but both look cool.

>>18293320
Had the one on the left for maybe 2 weeks before I dropped it, now it runs too slow so I never wear it.
Legibility and lume is really good. I don't like how the hour hand looks somehow too short and stubby though. If I get it repaired I'll have the handset swapped. Dial pattern on the right is dumb. I'd still get left for the full lumed numeral indexes.

>>18293293
I tend to take the mid-road on this one. I take good care of my watches, and they normally don't get scratched. I also wear them and wear vintage watches as dailies. The older generations took care of their timepieces, treating them carefully and usually only having 1. I do the same; treat every watch as if it's the only one I have.

Quite honestly, I'm not sure what could scratch my watches, especially if they're under a cuff. Wooden desks won't scratch them, and if I'm doing anything that requires tools of any sort, I'm usually not wearing a watch at all, or I'm wearing the Mark 40. I can't think of a reason a watch should get scratched in daily life unless the person wearing it is not careful with their hands/wrists.

I guess there is a fine line between not worrying about a watch and being reckless with one. I don't worry about my watches, but I'm not reckless...maybe that's the answer. Cool topic though!

>>18293320

Wierd how these had the best caliber of the bunch but worse dials than single penis superior.

>>18293661
Here I like the texture of the dial and the taller indices but not enough to say one is worse than the other.

>>18293665
Let me do that for you. One is clearly...superior.

>>18293668
How do you figure?

>>18293671
Well one is textured and has more details while the other is empty and featureless.

Rolex is extremely boring once you realize how many normies and even poorfags actually own one. You're just wearing a watch that has been seen a hundred thousand times.

>>18293639
>Do you have other watches?
>I can see a Cartier or Rolex owner having only one watch, but I can't imagine a Moser being someone's only watch.

I still have the Rolex I wore in high school and college. My father gave me his Tank when he retired. He was like "I'm retired, what the fuck do I need to know what time it is anymore?" They're both sitting in a box somewhere.
I have a G-Shock and a Garmin (if you guys consider that a watch) for sports and outdoorsy stuff.

As for being a one-watch person, mostly I'm just very careful with my purchases. I do my research ahead of time and consider all the information available to me. That way I never suffer from buyer's remorse nor do I feel the need to just keep buying more and more stuff.

>>18293674
>more details while the other is empty and featureless.
That's an odd call to make when they're close to identical. The 7000 dials are textured in person the gold one is a fluffy-looking material and the other has a fibrous papery surface.

>>18293688
That is some strong cope. Even the bottom of the barrel king quartz had better dials.

>>18293692
Nah I'm not feeling this one. With the other watch you posted it was fairly even but double-penis has the upper hand this time.

>>18293676
and yet, its still the best

>>18293676
Boring is part of Rolex's appeal. They don't go out of their way to do anything wacky. They don't make crazy complications (not often, anyway).
Simple, durable, reliable watches that are appropriate in nearly all situations.

>>18293704

I don't understand why a watch has to be fun. Is men's clothing fun? A smart man has a grey and navy suit paired with a white shirt, a discreet tie and leather derby shoes. A real man's outfit is sober, fun things are for women and... well, you know...

>>18293717
If you don't have enough courage or enough of a personality to be able to engage in a conversation with another adult, you can rely on a "fun" watch to act as a conversation starter.

Cartier is not a watchmaker, they make jewelry for women and niggers.
Their quartz caliber is worse than that in a $35 casio.
But my post wasn't even about it, i said there is no decent midrange quartz watch, except maybe for casio's anus. Also all swiss quartz watches are a waste of money in general, they lack functionality that japanese watches have such as solar battery, radio, gps or bluetooth connectivity. Only thing they have is the second hand missing the markers.

>>18293929
>Cartier is not a watchmaker, they make jewelry for women and niggers.
I've never seen a nigger wearing a Cartier. On the contrary, everyone has seen at least one nigger wearing a Rolex. Rolex is niggers favorite watch, and Rolex knows this and designs their watches to appeal to niggers.

As usual Archie is telling the truth. Piaget made wonderful watches in the past, but in the Richemont era they are a third rate watchmaker, although in recent years they are trying hard to improve.

>>18294131
Piaget is a lot like Cartier in the sense that there's Cartier and REAL Cartier.

That steel Polo shitter with the Cartier movement is entry-level dogshit. They also crank out a lot of quartz jewelry watches for women.
A mechanical Altiplano, on the other hand, is a far more refined watch. The Altiplano's movements are made in Piaget's own facility in La Côte-aux-Fées.
It doesn't help that their website doesn't list half the watches they produce.

>>18293644
sus

>>18294131
Gotta be honest here...last time I was in the Piaget AD, I wasn't blown away by anything....could be what they had in stock, but the designs don't speak to me, regardless of the quality of the movement. They're not watches that I like looking at...

>>18293993

LIMITED EDITION MADE IN CHINA

Breguet or Vacheron Constantin?????

>>18294238
You can't spell Breguet without guet.

>>18294238
VC
Breguet always fucks up their designs in some way.

>>18294238
Vacheron has a more versatile range. Breguet if you're only wearing formal clothes all week because the only line of theirs that's of any interest is the Classique. At least that's their only current line that's of any interest to me as the Marine is now absolutley fugly, the Type XX is a boring ass pilot chrono with shitty dial layout with below their overall standard of movement finishing and the Tradition, supposedly their "pièce de résistance" is a cluttered showpiece with a tiny dial. I hate tiny dials on large watches.

Vacheron's more formal or dressy models are still more versatile than Breguet's, and you could wear a traditionelle or patrimony in more casual attire without it looking odd. The superiority, albeit perhaps not the originality, of VC's casual/sporty lines over Breguet's is obvious. Breguet's more delicate looks in general makes them look a little weird if worn casually. Not saying you can't, but imagine a classique on a guy in an oxford with rolled sleeves and jeans vs a patrimony or traditionelle. Which looks less incongruous?
VC may be looking up, especially if AP and PP continue to shit the bed design -wise but Breguet still doesn't look like it's anywhere near "it's time in the sun" due to swatch's usual pathology of mismanagement.

Depreciation wise maybe it's dependent on models? Maybe VC has a slight edge? I'm not sure. About the same 30% give or take apart from hot items like some Overseethe variants and the 222. Lots of deals on older Breguets though, like the superior previous Marine which had its own charm in looking like someone tried to sportify an old pocketwatch. That's the only non typeXX Breguet that I could see working casually, as well as formally if you changed the rubber strap. The current marine isn't even worth looking at for long because it's so hideous.

>>18294238
>>18294259
>>18294270
Been thinking about getting picrel over a VC traditionelle am i about to make a mistake?

>>18294278
When would you wear this watch? It's not something I would wear if not in formal attire. That's why I'm going with the traditionelle myself as I could wear it in my casual clothes as well as in a suit. Depends on your fashions.

>>18294280
i dont dress formally often lol how weird will this look with a black t shirt

>>18294286
I think it would look odd desu. Black t, sneakers etc. Not for me.

>>18294278
It's gorgeous, the enamel dial is beautiful in person. Ultimately, it's about what looks better on your wrist. Have you tried on the VC yet? I have a soft spot for VC...their patrimony is beautifully conservative.

>>18294286
No prob. I wear pic related with jeans. If you wear the watch, and the watch doesn't wear you, then no one cares. Social acceptance is really just amplified fear; if you look like you don't have a problem wearing the watch, no one else will think you have a problem, and if they do, they will be in doubt of their own convictions if you're strong enough in personality. Buy it, enjoy it, and wear the fuck out of it. Don't give in to fear. Life is too short.

>Bros...Rolex is only worth buying for investment and/or quick resale purposes. Why are their watches so damn boring? It's unbelievably desperately sad. I can't even throw money at their new pieces...what a waste.

>>18293644
I thought I recognized that bracelet. I have the 2015 reissue with date (happened to be in Japan).
I consider it to be the king of mall watches. Sometimes you still want to wear a watch but you don't want something shiny.

>>18294300
Based OD.
How was your Saturday?

>>18294314
>I consider it to be the king of mall watches
But did you buy it at the mall?
I'm guessing the new ones don't have the speedmaster branding

>>18293570
Nonsense, anon. That watch is perfect.
The screen color matching the hands and markers *chef's kiss*

>>18294340
How's a long power reserve and accuracy not a luxury? At what point did having to spend time to re-adjust your watch become a luxury?

>>18294335
I bought it Yodobashi Camera, which is a department store - not a mall - I suppose. However, they also had them at shops in Odaiba Park which is basically a mall.
And you are correct, the clasp just says Seiko.

Just saw the cuckitus with my own eyes. It's even uglier in person lmao.
Tried on some non-pp watches I'd like though. My fucking slanted wrist top shape ffs. Anyone else suffer from this? Makes all my watches tend to slide back off my wrist during the day.

It's a liberating feeling actually trying on some pieces only to find that due to shape and size you'll never ever be able to wear them, so you can safely discard them from further consideration and never read anything about them online ever again.
Goodbye overseethe, and thank fuck for that too.

>>18294358
>Just saw the cuckitus with my own eyes. It's even uglier in person lmao.
I saw it too and it's not as big as I thought it would be. I mean it's a large watch but it looks similar in size to the Cartier Santos large (the one with the date window).

A buddy of mine, who's jewish, told me sephardic kikes love it while ashkenazis hate it. He also assured me that's the worst thing that could happen to Patek (I believe him).

Hope you guys had a great weekend.

wtf bros my watch lost one whole hour last night. What could cause this? do I need to take it to a watchmaker?

Ramen Time.
(I didn't have to adjust the time because Japan doesn't swap between winter and summer time).
Which begs the question, why does a JDM watch >>18294395 have that feature?

>>18294417
Quite a useful feature for extremely accurate kind also.

>>18294421

>>18294455

fuck avatards and avatardsimps kys

>>18294463
We only have two active avatarfags at the moment. OmegaDrunk is a notorious samefag but only because he wants to make it seem like everyone in the thread actually wants to talk about his personal watches for the hundredth time.
Roachadello is probably trying to garner sympathy by making normal posters think that he's being bullied or something.

The real bummer is that this thread actually does discuss watches when they're not polluting it. They could participate if they wanted, but they can't control themselves.

>>18294395
looks too fat for a dress watch

did someone say Independently adjustable hour hand

>>18294465
I am participating more than you might think, we probably had many quality conversations together without you realizing. I'm just not posting my watches when I do [have a conversation], except if it's directly related. Unlike now.

>No, I'm actually really cool and not a man in my 30s who plays with stuffed toys like some queer!

>>18294471
I've been away a few years is this some cringelord faggot who shits up the general?

>>18294465
Imagine what this thread would be like with poster IDs.

>>18294476
That is correct. While friendly, he is very hungry for attention (to the point of a histrionic personality disorder) and continues to avatarfag despite being constantly insulted, told to leave and or generally neck himself.

Every once in a while he gets BTFO pretty hard and some people find that entertaining and start to miss avatarfag drama when it doesn't happen for a while. In any case /wt/ is a bad thread in a bad board, so while sometimes a conversation about watches happens, most of the time this thread has the quality of a F-tier Mexican soap opera drama.

>>18294465
Is that the kofe time guy?

>>18294478
Poster IDs should be sitewide, honestly. Maybe make a few exceptions for b and a few others. There doesn't seem to be any real reason some boards have them and others don't.

>blablabla avatarfags this

Cool Rolies bros.
I just sold my Pepsi and JLC Master Control Date to Watchfinder.
Patek coming soon.

>>18294482
Do I need this? No.

Am I honkering over it like a retard? Yes.

>>18294488
>>18294493
I really like the Explorer II (40mm) and the GMT (my favorite is the Coke), but they are too big for my taste. Cool watches, though.

>Patek coming soon.
Patek 3940?

>>18294490
Shut up you fucking nasty Greek

>>18294497
>Patek 3940?
Yes but the 5110 is also on my radar. Classic Patek complication, small diameter and cool design.
I'll have to try one to make my mind.

>>18294493
>I just sold ... to Watchfinder.
Why? Getting pennies on the dollar for your watches wasn't worth the hassle of private sale?

>>18294502
Yes. To be more specific, I've had a lot of trouble selling the JLC. There's a ton of Master Control Date available online and very few demand for these. Selling a JLC is not easy.

>>18294501
You have very good taste, anon.
My favorite PP:
>3940
>5110
>3919
I am a simple man, I like watches without complications, but a world timer seems to me to be a really useful piece.

>>18294508
But the Rolex? I don't know about you, but I've never had any trouble selling one.
Would they only take your JLC if you gave them the Rolex too?

>>18294509
Thanks man.
Don't you like the 3923? I love these.
A while ago I've almost bought an Ellipse with cream dial, small second and dauphine hands. I'll try to find a pic.
>>18294510
>Would they only take your JLC if you gave them the Rolex too?
Yes, I forgot to mention that.
Also I've put the Rolex on C24 for a few days and got like a million DM from shady buyers. I really didn't want to deal with that.

>>18294513
>A while ago I've almost bought an Ellipse with cream dial, small second and dauphine hands. I'll try to find a pic.
It was this one.

>>18294513
>Don't you like the 3923?
Yes, I like that watch, but I love the Clous de Paris bezel on a dress watch, which is why I think the reference 3919 is my favorite Calatrava.

>>18294513
Do you still have sports watches in your collection or are you doing the G-Shock plus dress watches thing?

>>18294516
This is a beautiful watch, I love the Dauphine hands. It would be great if Rolex would release a new watch with these hands.

>>18294521
I'm keeping the Explorer and the Omega Chronostop here >>18294482
I'm not really into G-Shock but I love these Citizen. Too bad they're almost impossible to find in Europe.

>>18294526
How would you rate my current collection?

- Vacheron 4500V Blue Dial, Steel

- Jaeger le Coultre Master Ultra Thin Moonphase, Steel, White dial

- Cartier Tank Louis, White Dial

I’m thinking of adding either a Santos or a Tank Must (in steel both)

>>18294529
This you? lmfao

>>18294528

>>18294529

>>18294529

I respect VC as a watchmaker, but I'm not a big fan of the Overseas. To be honest, I find it too big. I'm also not a big fan of watches with integrated bracelets.
>>18294529
>Jaeger le Coultre Master Ultra Thin Moonphase, Steel, White dial
This one is pretty good, but it's too big for my taste.
>>18294529

This one is beautiful and I like it.

Anyway, I'm not a big fan of Richemont.

If they made a manual winding 50 fathoms I would take it over my sneedmaster. It would be the greatest watch ever. It's just 2 thick.

>>18294549
Ashkenazi jews (eastern European) often make fun of Sephardic jews (arabs) for their poor taste.

>>18294557
>they made a manual winding 50 fathoms I would take it over my sneedmaster.
That's never going to happen. Being automatic was part of the original watch's design brief.

The thickness is something they can solve tomorrow if they wanted to. They make the 38mm Bathyscaphe and that's only 10.7mm thick, despite having the same 300m water reisistance.
The originals from the 1950s and 60s were around 13.5mm, so if they get it down to at least that, I would be fine.

>>18294556
yeah the VC is a bit big for my taste too … It wears bigger than the JLC too. That’s also why i’m considering either getting a Tank Must or a Santos as my daily instead

>>18294552
There is no alternative to the Sub, get money, save money and buy the watch you like.

>>18294563
What’s the obsession with the sub anyway. It’s literally the watch for boring middle managers. No personality

The worst are the superhero nicknames for some models

>>18294559
>Sephardic jews
They are not Arabs, they are Jews expelled from Spain.

Yeah I noticed that. It's still hilarious though.
Had a look at a Lange 1 properly for the first time as I'd only ever glossed over it. The little dial is frustratingly insignificant on that large empty dial. The 1815 and the 1815 annual calendar are nice though.

>>18294278
the size,dial and over hanging lugs make it look like he's wearing a clock on his wrist.

The regular two with the first one being the hour jumping one. That's what you use to change the date also.
