You know what would be nice ?

WATCHES THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY AFFORD : POST EM HERE YOU DUMB FUCKS

Because if i wanted to look at some watches more expensive than my entire life i would just move 20 meters on my fucking street since i live in Geneva.

What is /fa/`s opinion on this?

>>8659097

Don't like the wristband but otherwise it's fine.

>>8659052
Post your own and contribue instead of bitching

How much did you pay for your watch, /fa/?

Any thoughts for a decent strap for this watch?

Can anyone help me identify these two watches?

>>8660236
They're both datejust Rolex. One on the left is the new style with roman numerals on the outside of the face and the one on the right has a midnight blue face in the older style

>>8660251

>>8660182
buy from jacksontse (google it)

shitloads of strap options

gib 2 me

bouncer at a strip club here. seemingly irrelevant information, it is indeed relevant to my question. what watch do i get? currently own a tuna can seiko that needs to be repaired, and a luminox that needs a new battery. havent worn a watch in years.

>>8660530
bump. not too flashy but still very functional

>>8660144
which one?

>>8660530


>>8649390

W-what about these /fa/? They're just 30€...

>>8660590
good enough. if that's all you want to spend, buy it.

>>8659097
I really like the wrist band. I want a wool band now. Looked up some pics of that watch. Looks really thin. Don't know if that's what your looking for or not.

>>8660440
That band looks bulky as fuck.

>>8660590
I personally don't like the style of that watch. Just doesn't look right. If you want a good looking cheaper watch try: Timex Striped Band Weekender Watch. Looks gud in grey.

Pic is my collection. Need to give the Mondaine some wrist time. Just got it. Trying to sell the top three.

>>8660607
>>8660612
Thanks guys

>>8660612
>That band looks bulky as fuck.

you need 7.5" wrists to pull it off, otherwise you look like a steampunk role player.

>>8660619
No problem. My inexpensive watch is the Casio Databank. Big fan of that.

>>8660616
Exactly.

>>8660584
i like those, but probably not gonna get any of those

>>8660709
Okay. what's your price point? what style of watch do you like best?

>>8660144
>cheapest
Casio analog with resin strap $11

>most expensive
Bulova Precisionist $225

I have six watches in between.

>>8660929
How's that precisionist? I want to get a quartz to set all my mechanicals by but I hear it burns through batteries like a motherfucker.

>>8661294
It lasts about 3 years. Most quartz average 5.

fuck I love panerai's design

>>8660390
>>8660182
Are they real leather or padded with garbage?
+
Where can I get Pam 292j in PVD (and a nomos tangente - cant stand the china made on rodina and its logo font) for a decent price (apart from going to china)
Davidsen (familiar name if you're into replicas) has some nice PAMs but a tad too expensive for me.
As for the Nomos tangente, trusty time has some but I'm not to sure if they are like the rodinas (cream dial, concentric sub dial, seagull movement...). The watchuseek thread on rodinas seems to show that the QC is not the same on every Rodina or maybe due to its popularity other factories might try replicating (lol) it.

>>8662325
jacksontse has real leather, not sure about quality

regular ones are shit, but watches marked with 'high grade strap' are supposedly better

as for the pam 292j, found this one from getat, you also get a shitload of customization options

>>8662325
If you don't mind to own a replica, take a look to replica-watch.info, there are some outstanding replicas.

>>8660590
Looks good m8. Could even sport NATOs... Take a picture when you have it, I'm curious.

>>8660390
>Panerai diver's crown

>>8662715
>implying anyone even uses Panerais with a bracelet/nato

Panerai isn't used as a diving watch anymore. It's more of a status symbol now, which is probably why 95% of Panerai's out there are on leather straps

latest cop. on it's way from Ukraine.

Is this a decent watch? If not, could someone suggest a similar looking watch?

Thanks

>>8663119
nevereverevereverever buy fashion watches unless you can get them for like $50

that watch is a but tasteless. What's your price range?

>>8663119
Armani watches are actually just rebranded Fossil watches that are then marked up by another $100.

>>8663142
that watch is about $225

i'm trying to find something, give me a minute

>>8663119
How important is the color of the hands and markers to you? Because I know of a watch that is literally that exact same design in stainless steel.

>>8663082
Why would a Soviet watch have "Made is USSR" inscribed in English on the face?

>>8663142
I was getting that vibe from the look of watches posted on here, I'm looking to pay up to £200 or $250.
>>8663174
I see, you're going to hate me for saying this, but I'm looking for something that looks nice on my wrist rather than a great time-piece.
>>8663192
I'm very picky, but I'm looking for something quite simplistic. I fucking love the look of >>8662250
this watch, but I gawped at the price-tag

>>8663216
i think that's a version made for exporting.

>>8663222
well shit, you picked a good watch to not like the price tag of. Nobody really wants to pay for a Panerai, and they put so little branding they're easy to use the designs of without technically being a fake.
http://www.jacksontse.com/new/product-list.php?catlv1_id=7

>>8663222
you can get a homage of that watch for $120, however it is a hand wind watch, meaning you will have to wind it manually every day or two, plus, if you order from this website, despite getting a high quality piece, there are high delivery times, some people have reported over 6 months waits, others just 2 weeks, so depends on how much you want to risk it. However, it should usually arrive within 6 weeks.

>>8663287
Thanks for your input guys, I really like the look of these "fakes". If you happen to have one, would you be able to comment on the build quality and feel of the watch? Cheers

>>8663344
technically the term is 'homage' which is just a nicer way of saying you're capitalizing on somebody else's design. it's a widely accepted practice for making a high end watch design affordable, though, and the manufacturers don't seem to mind it.

>>8663344

once you start with panerai homages you're hooked, so be careful.

Here's a good place to start: http://forums.watchuseek.com/f71/best-panerai-homage-part-3-a-779017.html

There are a few reputable low budget sellers($70-$150):
manbushijie
jacksontse
getat

google them.

Also Getat is considered the best when it comes to budget, but is the most expensive ($120+). He builds custom watches to your preference, and there are a shitload of custom options. He is the one I linked earlier.

For a first time homage, you'd best get one from the above three.

>>8659051

what would you wear it with?
i dont think you can pull it off if you wanna dress classy

>>8663373
of course you can't, he probably didn't have dressing classy in mind when he asked...

>>8663359
I apologise, you're right homage is a much more polite way of putting it.
>>8663366
Thanks, noted them down and gunna hunt around for one I like. I really love the look of the 70s style chocolate brown and orange.

Just bought this APC watch from a friend for $190. Thoughts?

>>8663395
that's a mindfuck. curious little thing

Getting this next week.

>>8663395

also your friend fucked you over, sorry bro

>>8663445
Well the watch is from last year and sold out everywhere. I've seen it go for more other places.
Obviously I would have purchased it directly from APC for $75 if it were available.

Don't ever buy a fashion brand watch, that's a basic rule for someone who wants to buy a watch.

i already know there's going to be hate, but these are the only 2 watches i own. they both go with everything, and i've never gotten anything but compliments for them. i probably spent $500 total for both of them, so they've been a great investment. i've had them for about 2 years and wear them at least 5 days a week for work and they've held up great. no scratches or anything

>>8663573
No hate here, but they're a bit too gaudy for my taste.

Think again buddy.

Homages or whatever you want to call them are pieces of shit manafuctered by children and help illicit arms trade and prostituion.

If you wear a replica-hommage-fake you are no better then a geobasket filled with shit.

>>8663934

Actual watchmaker here, get something slim and dressy - >>8659097 is versatile and timeless, and if you want something special go for a mechanical watch (but probably low end swiss brands like cyma) depending on how much you want to spend

Just bought this. Waiting for it to come in.

>>8666008
Do you work in/for any maison in particular or are a freelancer? If not, where?

For those of you who have one of these or the gold version: how's the strap? I'm particularly interested in the buckle (whether it's a pain to hook and unhook) and whether it pinches your arm hair much or not.

>>8666454
Adjusting the clasp initially was a little bit annoying, I got a knife an just popped it off to move it. It's pretty easy to clasp on and off and it hasn't fallen off or anything so it clearly does its job.

However, I'm a sand negro with hairy arms and every time I pull it off a few hairs get ripped off. It's not like it hurts too much or anything, but chances are if you have hairy arms you might be subject to this.

I'm not sure if I would buy it again to be honest, It's a nice enough watch but it has always looked cheap to me. But if you have a fit you want to work it into or just really like it, go ahead and give it a shot!

>>8666081

The Soviet watch craze happened in the 80's and 90's, where they were being exported heavily to Italy and the US for example, and apparently at least one Chinese obvious fake fell into the mix.

I'm not trying to be epic but what's the point of an expensive watch that looks the same as a much less expensive watch?

Like, what do you get with an increased price? Is it just about status?

Again genuinely curious, not trying to be inflammatory

This was passed down by my dad, it's over 15 years old.

I really, really like it. Daily wear for me.

>>8670421
In my opinion, having a more expensive watch means being able to say you're wearing $20,000 as opposed to $200. It's a selfish feeling, but you mentally set yourself on a higher level than everyone else. It's a statement of ones class.

Also more expensive watches usually use nicer parts and a built to a higher quality than less expensive watches.

>>8660612
w2c top left can't find it

>>8670421

Maybe I don't, maybe I'm just a figment of your imagination.

I started lurking 4chan several years ago, when I was in college, now it's an acquired taste. I started visiting /fa/ just recently, though. I use to visit /b/ and /p/ for long time now.

>Uber rich
Lol I'm not. I have to work hard for my shit.

>>8672875
Well, hi. Nice to meet you. :-)

best watches are watch you get from grandfathers and shit like that, stuff that has some kind of history, no matter how shitty the said history is

I use the Brooks Brothers one as my daily, Bulova on special occasions and rarely use the other one.

>>8673686
The thing is sometimes there isn't watches in the family heirloom or they got lost in time.

>>8659018

Nomos is a great value brand.

>>8673942
Yes it is. And that particular model is quite nice. Yours? How do you think about the worldtime mechanism, do you like it?

>>8670451
>Also more expensive watches usually use nicer parts and a built to a higher quality than less expensive watches.
yeah, no shit

>>8673671
does money give u bitches? how do they treat you when they know you have money? just curious btw

>>8673964
It's not a true world timer that would display the timezones simultaneously.

Instead it's more like a GMT or travel time that displays two timezones but with the functionality of a world timer disc.

It's a great take on the complication and certainly looks and feels good.

My only problem is the horween strap which is already starting to wear. I'm looking at getting a sturdier strap with a bit of colour that will make it look more modern.

>>8673942
That's beautiful. How much was it?

Want a Nomos badly. This would be my grail if I had it. ....One day.....

>>8674037

I travel to and from London to Frankurt and Paris so pushing one button to click an hour ahead is really useful.

No date function though. But it just looks great and looking down at it when I'm bored on the train makes it all worthwhile.

>>8674028
Well mate. If it has a city ring that tells you the hour in any place by just puching a button or crown, it is a true worldtime. The diference is that you don't need to know or calculate the diference between citys.

I'm looking for a watch that's color is either the back or the second from the back. Any recommendations? If not what color or type of metal would you look for?

>>8674082
No I disagree. This would be a true world timer.

Except if all I wan't is an one night stand or insignificant adventure. Then I flash out the richness cause I know that's all they want and it works.

>>8674107
You might disagree but you are also wrong. I have a worldtimer that operates just like the VC you just posted but both are equaly aknowledged like true worldtimers. It's the fact that you don't need to previously know the diference between the time it shows and the time you need to know, what makes it a worldtimer.

I really don't think so. Also, if you're going to buy one aniway, you should at least wait for a second version, like someone else poited aut as well.

>>8663972
That doesn't even come close to an hommage, that's just two divers next too each other.
But the same Chinese companies that are making homages are making replica's, no one spends money on tooling for one market when they can just as easily cater to two markets and make more money, those replica brands also employ child labour by children that could have had a brighter more fruitful learning future, not to mention the connecting with gangsters who operate those businesses and partake in illicit prostitution of the children and wives not to mention organ trade. For some it's a cover-up and for some a core business but when you buy a Chinese hommage or replica your are contributing to the sodomofication of underage children stolen from villages.


Replica's and hommages are both bad, they represent the fake imagery propagated by Hollywood culture in an attempt to make more money in a viscous cirle of repition that knows no end apart from illicit doom to us all.

You can stop all know.

Dont give a shit about anyone who isn't in my life. Including you.

I dont care whether people are suffering in Africa, in Asia, rape, murder, famine.

Doesn't affect me. Don't give a fuck. I get my shit. I'm happy with my shit. All's good.

If you honestly think I'll pay 40 times as much for a timepiece just so some faggot in China gets ONE less customer and stops treating people like shit, you're dead wrong.

Grow the fuck up and stop caring about people just like people don't care about you.

>>8674876
>That doesn't even come close to an hommage, that's just two divers next too each other.
There are clearer examples, anyway I can assure you that chinese manufacturer aren't the only ones who make hommages.

The differecen between replica and hommage is that a replica uses ilegally the brand to take profit of it and the hommage just uses its design, and, as I said before, a lot of well known brands inspire their designs in other watches designs, there is nothing wrong with it if you don't use the brand ilegally.

I get what you want to say, but making a hommage isn't a bad thing, the bad thing is force kidnapped kids to work, and in this case doesn't mind if they make watches, clothes or chairs.

>>8674876
>>8674955
You're both idiots but for different reasons.

In other news, I recently made an impulse purchase on ebay (bit dumb of me, I know) but I did it because I noticed something that could be quite valuable in the picture: a Krementz bonklip-style bracelet.

>>8671188
>>8673671

You probably have greater net worth than my entire town.

>>8674988
actually I agree with >>8674955 partially, seems like >>8674876 is a bit butthurt because he regrets spending money on a watch he had previously bought, and seeing crowds around him get similar quality piece for a fraction of the price, being happy without spending a huge amount of money is apparently so devastating he has to go all out on an imageboard telling people they are faggots because they choose not to go broke over a timepiece.

>>8675189

Replica's and homages are not made with similar quality.

>>8673671
>arquitectural

>scubadiving

>>8675203
depends on where you look

of course you dont get a similar watch quality when you buy a miyota sub rep for $70

However, Steinhart, for example, makes a very high quality piece that is a close homage to the Rolex Submariner, and for the price they ask, you're getting insane value. pic related

>>8674141
I hate square/rectangular watches. Unless they're elongated the opposite way to the reverso (wider than longer)

also why do people buy the daytona in white when the black dial is a million times sexier. white dial chronographs are dumb as fuck unless they're a vintage Heuer

Good entry watch. Nice bang for the money. Would cop if there weren't anymore money.

>>8669569

Nice and plain not cluttered with shit

Can anyone recommend watches IN RELATION to the kind of aesthetic you tend to wear?
i.e. what kind of watch for biz caz mfa tier
i.e. what kind of watch for acne/apc/mmm
i.e. what kind of watch would a gothninja wear

>>8675880
A lot of watches are pretty versatile. Just use a dress watch in somewhat formal situations and wear whatever you think is suitable in other situations

>>8675880
I haven't been that long on /fa/ so I don't truly understand what does several of those mean.
>WAT

what model is this?

>>8676121
It's a IWC I think. I can't put my finger in the model yet. Hold on.

>>8675880
Second this, I dress a mix of the last two and am struggling to find something that fits

>>8676121
looks like an IWC aquatimer

>>8676121
It's an IWC Aquatimer.
Pic related, but with blue dial.

someone posted his watch in an old thread

>>8676256
This is like the first time I've liked serifed type on a watch.

I'm impressed.

>>8667344

>gold
>rolex

100% confirmed for buying it as a flashy status symbol, and not for because you yourself like it/are interested in its history/know jack shit or even want to about horology

Go ahead though, even wearing a flashy rolex your crush still wont love you anon

>>8676280
the guy is dropping 10k on a watch, dont think he cares too much.

>>8676268
i know what you mean, the red dashes and red seconds hand add some sportiness to off set the type.

>>8659018
Someone recommend me a simple, automatic, sub-$250 military watch. Something like the Seiko 5 SNK809 but with a cleaner dial, preferably arabic numerals

>>8671315
I'd buy this for my daughter if I had a daughter

just ordered this online, owned a skagen before and feel that they're very underrated

>>8676480
They're okay. I might buy one secondhand for the right price.

>>8676480
/fa/ generally doesn't seem to like Skagen much... but who cares, i do and i get more compliments on my Skagen watch than on anything else i wear. See pic related. Looks great on my skinny stick figure wrists.

>>8676540
skagens definitely look nice. and their thin profile is a big attraction for many. but they have build quality problems, most notably the dial feet snapping off causig the dial to spin around freely.
once again, for $30 might be something I'd buy.

>>8676548
I didn't seem to have any problems with mine, but I'll keep an eye out on how my recent one performs. The thin profile is what sells them for me, I like bigger watches too but feel that they're more appropriate to cop when I'm older.

>>8671188
What's the difference between the Grand and non-Grand models? Besides the face size?

Is it worth getting a battery changed and the bracelet sized? How much will it cost to get done?

>>8676930
About $30 to get battery changed and bracelet sized

Which one, /fa/?

>>8677066
Right

>>8660440
This is fresh. How much and how is it?

>>8676930
you could get both done for free

>>8677295
about, € 1.990

The model is the Sinn 103 Klassik

Can't find any info on strap. Looks like it would be around €60

>>8675236
I know, right? I so want the Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military.
I'm just having issues buying an homage... but on the other hand the Steinharts are basically free.

I don't know how much longer I can resist this urge to get it for vacations or something. :(

>>8678335
also I would finally have a watch where I'd have an actual reason to wear a NATO.

>>8678344
why does it have to be an homage? Couldn't they just have used at least different and raised markers or something?

it would not sell as well as it does if it didn't resemble the 5517 as much as possible

there are no other 5517 homages to my knowledge from a decent brand.

Also the 5517 is that fucking rare that its not a homage unless your talking to a uber watch nerd

>>8682029

Ever since my old watch ran out of batteries i've been craving to buy a new one because i've been in so many situations where it would've been much easier to look down at my wrist than to pull out my phone.

>>8682256
my advice?
replace the battery.
or buy a new watch. list your prefernces in a watch and I will find you the perfect piece.
