Metal bands are casual, and you can always switch it for a nato

Whatever color you like, honestly. I have a pretty even split of light and dark dials. Lighter is usually a bit dressier that black or other colors, but that definitely isn't always true and the size and styling of the watch plus the type of band it's on have more to do with that than the dial color does. Metal bracelets are great, they're pretty versatile as far as dressiness or casualness. And you can always swap out the strap on a watch to whatever you like, by the way.

Are you talking about these watches I posted earlier? >>9724896 Because if so then I hope you know those models were made in the 70s and you're going to have to buy used from Japan on ebay if you want something like that.

Orient Monterey Quartz Chronograph/ Seiko Solar Quartz Chronograph. Are these good entry level watches?

>> No.9730754

>>9730561
Those are both pretty shit, tbh. Orient is overrated as a brand, and their quality leaves a lot to be desired. The Seiko is fucking ugly, and their solar chronograph watches are known for their poor quality and reliability. Really disgraceful, since Seiko makes some decent watches. Why would you want a chronograph anyways? Do you really need 3 subdials? Keep looking, kiddo.

It has to do with the reset function, basically. Mechanical chronographs just fly back into position when you press the reset button. Quartz chronos have to tick backwards until they reach the top. Seiko fixed this with the mecaquartz by having the chrono module be mechanical while the actual timekeeping remains quartz. it also gives it a 5bps sweep instead of the standard quartz tick which is an added bonus, since a stopwatch that only times in 1 second increments is hardly a stopwatch at all.

The Victorinox is ugly and cheap looking. Pick an Orient depending on whether you want a dressier watch or a diver, they're both pretty solid choices.

I never liked the dumb second crown on the Orient divers though, and I would feel alot better if they were 200m Diver and not 200m WR since Seiko manages to get a full Diver rating in the 007 which costs about the same. The big date window that shows 3 dates at once on the other watch is kind of silly too, but whatever. The dial looks like it has a nice texture and I like full day windows.

>> No.9732860

>>9732829
One is a diver watch, one is dressy, one has shit military dial when an even worse strap.

I am biased against Victorianox so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but both those orient are good choices, it boils down to what you will wear the watch with. The more dressy face can work with more relaxed styles, but take into account which watch you like the best and how you will wear it, and make your decision.

If you posted 3 diver watches someone could give you a more insightful opinion, so narrow down what watch style you like most first then ask for specific advice.

what do you think of the Ventus Caspian? It's a Seiko Mecaquartz with a brass case and a sterile sandwich dial.

I don't follow kickstarter watches much, partially because all of my money is currently being saved for more important things, but also because on the rare occasion that I do buy a watch I don't like it to take months to get to me.
That being said: the movement is good, and it looks good. Not sure how I feel about a brass case far as durability goes, though.
Sterile is definitely the way to go with the flieger style so it's good that they did that.

>>9735667
It's the exact same watch in different colors. Pick the color you like. I assume you want us to also talk about similar divers in that price range?

When I was in your position looking for a first diver I had it down to that watch or the Mako or the SKX007 and I ended up going for the 007. It just seems like a higher quality watch in a few different ways (except for the cheap stock bracelet, but that's replaceable). As far as the actual styling I think the Orients are more of a classic dressier look and I kind of like that aspect more than the 007's design. I'm happy with my 007 but I think I could have also been happy with one of the Orients, I think you should decide based on which one you think looks better and consider how important it is that the Seiko has a little bit of an edge in the quality of the external fit and finish if you compare them close up, and it will probably be a bit sturdier if you're actually going to be beating it up (Seiko is a 200m diver while Orient is a 200m water resist which isn't quite the same thing, and the Orients have that dumb second crown thing which apparently has occasional problems.)

I think divers are great for everyday wear, if you like how divers look then just go for it, there's a reason it's such a popular classic style. You don't have to worry very much about taking care of them and they can be dressed up or down almost as much as you want, especially if you get a few different types of straps to swap between.

You could of course also go for more of a dress watch or a chronograph (probably quartz at that pricepoint though) or whatever other style you like if you have one in mind.

>>So how shit are fashion watches, bought my girl this one, she loves it.
>They are shit for the price, no questions about that. The thing about fashion watches is that you are paying for brand name; now, when that happens to something like rolex, it happens to a way lesser extent, because rolex actually make really good timepieces and their name recognition comes from such fact. Michael Kors didn't get their fame making watches, in fact even today they don't make watches at all. They just buy cheap parts for everything and double or triple the price for putting their nametag on it.

It can be a nice present if your girl likes that stuff, and since it's quartz it probably won't break or lose/gain time. It's simply a matter of getting your money's worth in a purchase, what didn't happen to you when you bought that thing. At all.

I bought a Timex Weekender (2N651) and I really love the design, but I'm very active during the day and the band has been causing problems. First and foremost is the notched design of the fastener, it's either a tad too tight or a tad too loose. Second, the metal loops keep snagging on things. I think they look very cool, but they get in the way during my daily work.

What I'm looking for is a band which doesn't use a notched clasp design. Some kind of velcro strap which I just tighten as much as it needs to be, maybe with a little elasticity so it's never too tight. Is there anything like that for this model of watch?

>> No.9740510

>>9740483
Lmao, buy a leather strap

Velcro? Are you serious?

>> No.9740514

>>9740483
It's a weekender. You can use literally any non steel link band for it.

>> No.9740521

>>9740510
A leather strap is going to have the same notches in it. Something without the notches will allow me to fasten it to the exact tightness I want.

>>9740514
