>>9145660
Gaudy? Its the most generic watch out there. It might look 'off' in that pic cause i used a cheap cell phone with poor lighting.

Its popular cause its prob. the cheapest 'nice' wind/automatic(amphibia is automatic and waterproof. Komonderski is wind and water resistant). Its also used in metro 2033... which prob. hurts it on /fa/.

In theme with my last post here
>>9157162

This "theme" for minimalist Bauhaus shit is getting tiresome. Designers aren't even trying anymore and are just selling you bottom of the barrel Chinese bullshit via Kickstarter because your white ass is dumb enough to buy it

Moreover good look wearing any of this oversized bullshit in a few years' time when big watches are out and 40mm is considered on the bulky side

>>9157162
Hey, you're entitled to what you want to say. I had just received it and wanted to try it out on a few nato straps to see if I could wear it with one.

And y'know what? Fifteen minutes later I went online and purchased a blue Hirsch leather strap for it.

This is a watch that I can't wear with nato straps and I've already accepted that fact as it just doesn't look right. The included strap isn't exactly a cup of tea either. But I figured I'd post the only image I took of it which happened to be on a nato strap to see who's jimmies got rustled.

Also, I agree with you on the movement part. I don't see the appeal to a display case back with nothing going on. I'd rather have a solid case back with it a little thinner.
>plastic crystal
Since when is hardlex plastic?

PS, you can get one for under $400 shipped.

>>9157162
It's his gimmick. He puts NATOs on literally every watch.

>>9157134

>>9157237
>blue Hirsch strap
OK Jesus anon you scared me there for a second so I sperged. Current choice is not only acceptable, but far, far better than 90% of watch nerds and it's outside the box. You understand it's not a true dress watch and are having fun making it quasi one.

Also the fact you understood it would rustle jimmies means your taste is in line with what I just wrote and as such not shit.

Yeah it should be thinner. I find there's a tendency these days to sell crap to watch nerds who buy stuf online and don't realize the thickness until it's in their hands. I'm wearing my Sinn 856 non UTC right now, it's on the thin side of tool watches and is still beefy.

Next watch is the Damasko DA 34 Black.

>>9157349
Accuracy has nothing to do with the price. Just whether or not it's been regulated. My seiko 5 loses 2 seconds.

>>9157323
Cheers brother. That's exactly it. I want to wear it as a nicer, dressier watch sure but want to be able to wear it with semi-casual attire. Nato straps for some watches would do just that. A leather nato strap _might_ obtain a similar result and I'll find out in a few weeks, but I'm pretty sure it'll live on the Hirsch strap.

I'm also not entirely innocent. I love nato straps and wear 'em on plenty of watches, but even I know there's a line to not cross. The Orient and the Cerberus are bracelet only right now, don't have any two piece straps for 'em but they don't look good on nato straps. The 007 can do natos but I much prefer the tool look of it on the bracelet.

>Sinn 856 non-UTC
I'm pretty jealous actually. I want to get myself a Sinn watch, but it's not immediately in the pipeline. I initially consdered the 556i, but I think it might be a bit too small for my wrist. The 856 hits my sweet spot for size, and the fact it is available with both the case and bracelet tegimented is an added bonus.

Deep down though, I really want a fully tegimented U1 SDR. But that's well off into the future.

Yeah man you got some better options. I am massively quartzphobic and would never own something with a movement like that but to each their own. Aside from that OK collection and you understand basic ways to wear a watch /fa/ and I love dat cocktail time/blue strap combo idea. I might just use it, though I myself am more into vintage GDR/Soviet pieces and modern German tool.

Also Sinn is damn nice and a U1 SDR can be good but troll watchrecon they can come as low as $1200-1500, even fully tegimented. The 856 is sick and I'm happy I didn't get PVD as it wears off.

I'm getting a Damasko that's black though because their proprietary Demest coating is retard-levels of tough and resistant.

>>9157704
>quartzphobic
Heh, nice way to put it. I can appreciate quartz chronographs as they bring chronos down into the very affordable range and the subdial seconds ticking isn't noticeable at all, which is nice. As for the blue strap with the cocktail time, I came across one image of it and immediately had to do it. This image better shows a very similar model SARB with the exact strap I'm getting with white contrast stitching. It just looks so gorgeous. I'm excited to get it, but it won't be for another few weeks as anything entering Canada usually ends up sitting a week in customs because lolholidays.

>I'm getting a Damasko that's black though because their proprietary Demest coating is retard-levels of tough and resistant.
Yeah I've read that shit is nuts. Certainly something to consider, but something about their logo rubs me wrong. I wouldn't enjoy seeing it on the dial of a tool watch.

>>9157723

>>9157721
>>9157704
Oh, and that is to add that I don't care for 3 handed quartz models any more since getting bitten by the mechanical bug. The top three chronos are quartz, all the bottom 3 handers are mechanical.

>>9157723

>>9157721

Oh all of my hnnnnnnnnnnnng I want to do it. But I can't justify buying more pieces :( Next GDR watch I get that's semi-casual and white face though I am doing this for sure. It's just sooo gorgeous.

>Damasko logo
Dude I LOVE the Sinn cursive but I'm with you on the Damasko logo. I also don't like how they insist on having screwball colours on all their dials rather than just shutting the fuck up and doing all white. But their movements are good and engineering god-tier so the pros outweight the cons

>Canuckfag
Holy shit me too! Reason I'm buying a Damasko is because I'm in the Forces. Wear my Sinn in the field but the watch, even tegimented, can get beat so I want something *even tougher* (and more tactical lel) in the form of the Damasko

My biggest problem with these German brands though is the lume. The lume is lame. I've owned a Chinese-made Ticino (which is, btw, the biggest value-for-money brand not made in Russia) that cost $120 whose lume puts my Sinn's to SHAME.

>>9157746
>quartz chrono
acceptable but imo too cluttered... just not my thing
Funny thing is there IS a time and place for quartz. I just don't like it on most of my timepieces.

Also w2c nice leather bands?

>>9157854
That's an SNKL43, on a Rhein Fils strap.
Black dial equivalent would be the SNKL45.

>spend $5000 on a swiss watch with an in house movement
>only $5k

You can maybe get a gold Frederique Constant with an in-house movement for that much, and that's only because they're new and not considered prestigious. Even basic Rolexes cost more like $8,000 today, it's just nuts.

what do you guys think about this one?

Grail.

So my rich father wants to buy a watch, and he's dead set on it being a Breguet. Now, he's wondering about whether to buy either a bracelet made of gold (rose gold), or one out of natural rubber. Anyone got any experiences with the rubber ones? It does look pretty rad, suits the watch, his worry was more about if it becomes too sweaty in use et cetera.

Thanks in advance! Nothing in this for me really, I just get to watch the watch for years in pure envy.

>>9158383

>>9158902
Yeah, might be. It mostly has sentimental value to me anyway (my father had it in the army etc) so I'll just continue using it. The case doesn't personally bother me at all, only the glass needs to be fixed imo.

>>9158902
The case is fine. A vintage watch that looks vintage is to be expected, and lots of people actually like the look. Lots of people will even faux-vintage homage mods they build.
IMO as long as the dial is clean, the movement is in good shape, and the acrylic is clear and polished

>that and i've got enough damned batteries to change and charge in my life.

like what? your fucking fault if you buy any shitty wireless mouses, keyboards or game controllers. phone doesn't count because that's just one thing you need to charge.

besides, you need to take any mechanical watch to service as well (oiling movement etc.) and that it doesn't need a battery is just one advantage over batteries and a faulty one at that.

>>9161291
underrated post

>>9161304
It's not aesthetics at all. Side by side chronographs are best chronographs. The retards did the seconds hands wrong though. The big hand is supposed to be the stopwatch hand, and the small sundial the running seconds. That'd piss me off so much if I were to wear it.
Quartz is fine, but there is literally zero reason to spend that much on a quartz unless it's a high frequency thermocompensated movement. That movement cost them tops $80, and if you factor in how much you think it costs to machine a case you can tell you're clearly being had.
Helgray is a little overpriced but not that much. Something like the far right would suit you far better.

>>9161344
Ok, I already knew that no matter what their margins were crazy high. This I get, and I was willing to bite the bullet. But I did not know that about the chronograph function.

Could you go a little further into detail here? There are two small subdials. As far as I have it understood, the regular seconds hand is utilized to count the seconds, where as the subdials count minutes, no? Please do help out, and thanks for the post.

>>9145482
Is this 'military issue' in the same way that breitling imply fighter pilots use their watches?

>>9161482
I don't think there are any real "military issue" watches these days

>>9161482
no, they actually are military issue.. or atleast were pre-capitolism.

>>9161503
Marathon and Casio both make military issue watches. Buying Marathon watches is a pain in the ass because of all the import limits put on them. Countycomm is about the only place i know of that sells them, and only to americans(even though Marathon is a Canadian company, and i think most of the movements are made in Switzerland, and the assembly is actually done somewhere in asia)

>>9161344
Ok,
>>9161453
here,

So, I read the following "the design adds 2 horizontal sub-dials just above center, one for the active seconds, the other for the 30-minute totalizer"

So is that not what it is supposed to be? From what you wrote, is that not correct, or are "active seconds" not the same as "running seconds"? With the regular seconds hand being the stopwatch function which at any point could be reset. Am I wrong here?

>>9161124
>$775
you better buy this
http://halioswatches.com/halios-delfin/

>>9161537
I could be wrong, but it appears that since the large seconds hand is moving around the dial and the small one is at 60 the small one appears to be for the chronograph seconds. Which is not what it's supposed to be.
That description doesn't reflect this, though, making me think they just took the picture with the chronograph running.
That being said, I still can't support a purchase at that price. With any watch (particularly one with so simple a design as the shinola) there's always a different watch that'll scratch the same itch, unless you care about a particular brand.

speaking of aesthetics, a 47mm watch will look absolutely clownlike on anybody who is not obese. sorry if you like the watch, the size will probably rule it out for you.

>>9161124
Just looked this brand up.
>claims to be American made
>swiss quartz movement
but...
>assembled by poor nigs in Detroit
nice gimmick. feels like paying a premium for a decrease in quality though, I doubt they're as good as swiss labor.

>>9161626
Ah ok, I got it. So the big seconds hand is for the chronograph function only, whereas the small sub dial on the watch is for actual seconds, is that right?

if that's the case, then screw buying that shit man. if that brand really did fuck that up as much as you guys say, then that's much more retarded than I am willing to be. I was willing to spend the money, I have the income for that. But I don't have the mental retardation to buy a watch where they could not get the simplest function correct.

>>9159159
>implying anyone ever shoots with a leica

>>9161745
Long as you have the income and the interest, it might be worth it to hang around these threads, as well as /g/'s watch threads. There's some cool shit to be had. Even more if you get past your aversion to mechanical watches. I think part of the reason they're preferred is that hardly anybody makes anything nice in quartz.

>>9161745
For anyone who cares, I just contacted the company and the chronograph function is indeed marked by the big second hand, as it should be. The picture is just a picture.

Looks like indeed, it's one of those watches where brand name and gimmick dictate the markup more than anything else.

God dammit you guys. Thanks to all those who helped for their input however.

Just so you know, there's no indication that it's a quartz watch other than perhaps the weight if it's light and it's overall size.

It's using the VK64 mecaquartz movement. There's no seconds register anywhere on board. The left register is for the chronograph minutes and the right one is a 24 hour indicator. Past that, the chronograph seconds hand moves at 1/5th second increments and has an instant snapback ala mechanical chronographs. So the whole ticking seconds thing is null right there. As for a battery, you'd have to replace it once every 3-5 years which is the same time frame between servicing a mechanical. If you pull out the crown when it's stored, you can extend that quite a bit so the bloody thing isn't running, which means battery life could even be greater than that.

>>9161957
Is it weird that I can identify people from these threads based on their way of writing? you're the guy with the NATO straps, right?

>>9161974
>you're the guy with the NATO straps, right?
Yup. It ain't too weird. Some people have a certain recognizable way of writing, I suppose.

>>9161981
What's the name of that Seiko chronograph you have that looks like one of their old automatic chronos?

>>9161826
If anything, is there anything with that similar look that you could recommend? I lean towards arabic, california maybe, and simple yet retro styles with a penance for pocketwatches (big crown with ridges), and of course black faces.

I liked Helgray, but it's a bit too opulent for me. One of the things that attracted me to that particular shinola was the that particular brand of watch style that is insular in it's execution (i.e. produced highly at one point, and only sporadically since).

WHY DOES EVERY GOOD WATCH GET DISCONTINUED

>>9162033
Stowa makes a lot of vintage inspired stuff. How do you feel about flieger watches?

So what are you guys going to do when your wrist fedora's become even more autistic when there will actually be something useful to wear on your wrist?

< $50 practical
> $5,000 high roller mode
in between = MFA tier dadcore purple or pink pocket square with vest can i have some more pleb plz sir

>tfw your son will pawn your archaic tech for near nothing to finance whatever awesome wrist offerings there will be in the future

>>9161745
I just looked it up. Their photo was just taken in the awkward condition of the chrono running and the seconds hand hacked. It does function as it's supposed to. Wouldn't pay that much but if you have the disposable income go right ahead if you don't find anything else you like.

I have this exact same watch. I bought it at K-Mart like ten years ago for $20 and I wear it almost every day. It's a fucking tank.

>>9162128

I doubt it considering they haven't been released yet...

>>9162118

meh I don't care how much it costs, it looks like you something a vendor would sell you on the street. I much prefer something like this, even if it is much cheaper.

>>9162361

>>9162333
Isn't this Timex a shitty resin glass and plastic case watch like the damn Casios though?

"tank" my ass if they are.

>>9161207
Don't get any of those, there shit trust me. If you want a semi functional watch/ fitness band get this.

I had the jawbone up 24 and believe me it was brutal. It had this little cap that would always fall off and inherently get lost. I ended up having to replace the cap 3 times. Charging it every week was also a downfall to this band. The up app was mediocre as well, it wasn't very functional. Also I swim often and having to take it off every time was very annoying. The suunto ambit3 peak has a 30 day charge and tracks everything you need to track. As well it doesn't have any extremities that fall off.

Choosing between three watches. Assume price is the same for all. Only comparing aesthetics.
Looking for thoughts. I'm torn.

What will you be wearing in your wrist? Some different kind of idiotic ipod mini in a strap?
>>HAHAHAHAHAHA

looking for my first watch, is this a solid cop?

>>9163419
Nah, it's shitty. Just get a seiko 5. I bought one of those, the strap is shit and it's too big.

>>9163436

You have to scroll down a little, there are different straps as well.

Would be my favourite combination too

I am interested in buying a new watch, should I get the Casio F91-W, Casio CA-53W or the Casio DBC-32?

Looking for a watch

or that one. I don't know if the silver one is actually a lady watch though. but it would pass as unisex in my eyes. Kaporal have unisex digitalwatches too.

I own this in silver but I'd recommend the Casio-A168W-1 instead. The light on the 158 is only on the left side so it only partially lights up the whole display. Feels tacky.

Good luck with your search anon, when you get one use Renata 391 - SR1120W batteries. battery leakage is usually what fucks up the g757.

you have a main hour hand, minute hand, chrono hand, a smaller dial for chrono minutes, and what's the other dial for?

>>9169904
It's a 24 hour indicator. Personally if I owned that watch I'd look into freezing that hand since clearly it's just meant to mimic the look of having an hours register.
