prior to tudor going in house and upgrading their faces

they used eta 2824-2 the -2 means they were regulated to a certain level within the swiss ETA brand's internal standards from the factory

swiss eta also sells unregulated rough cut in decorated 2824's to put into fashion watches like burberry's higher end watches that some counter feiters use

It's really not all that practical unless you're actively trying to protect the lens while fucking around in a desert or the woods. Actually >>13324060 brings up a great point as well, and I also did this back when I was an electrician. But when I'm on a laptop or something I turn the watch around because of how annoying it would be.

I've got that watch with a black dial.

The dial is beautiful. The lume is crap. Unfortunately the case is stainless steel and it has the finishing of a crappy chef's knife. The back also has an ugly QR code. It has a Miyota movement, and it's really not worth the money. If you can find a used one for about $200, I'd say get it. But full price is not worth it. I've gotten a couple compliments while wearing it.

Why, it's Malaysian made so it isn't in-house. It's seikos outsourced line.

Their $1 Seiko epsons are more in-house than a Seiko 5

Also an arcrylic exhbition case back?

Are those niggers serious?

Scratched to shit and the info will be worn off

Also

They have an exhibition case back to display an undecorated movennt featuring a ton of plastic parts....

It's like Seiko is showing off how cheap their watch is.

of course not, you dumb fuck, that's not how the rolex market works.

a 2010 sub would be a last year 16610 (I'm assuming you're talking about 5 digits, because if we are talking 116610 you're just dumb).

A 2010 16610 today is at that point where it's only going down in price, and it will go down the depreciation curve for a few years, so unless we are talking NOS or kermit, it's in the limbo, It doesn't go up.

After that, it will become more and more sought after, and prices will start to rise, we are seeing that happen with pretty much all steel or gold zenith daytonas, 16550 exp2's and the 16800/168000 subs that were forgotten for a few years.

After that, when they enter the same territory (age wise) of 5513's and 1680's It's just more and more money everytime you wear it.

So, you buy a couple of 6-7k watches and stash them for a few years, you won't loose much or any money at all if you want to sell it early, but If you wait enough, you will in fact make 100% profit on those.

Sure, It's not like buying gold for 30% of market price, but for people in the watch community and into buying and selling it is an investment, matter of fact you could wear your 2010 sub for 20-30 years and get a brand new one + a little bit of cash.

well, I never said you could make more money with watches, there's obviously better/quicker ways to make money.

No, rolex is very fucking relevant, it has always been, baselworld or no baselworld, you can't destroy that, people gladly pay over retail for their "new" (1-2yrs old) releases, they also pay retail prices for 20 year old watches with patina'd (fucked) dials.

Also, you're just proving me you don't know shit about the vintage market.
No ones cares about the scratches, people like unpolished watches, but not necessarily NOS ones, just sharp pieces.

Why would you sell back to an AD?
Makes no sense, it's like selling your old car to a dealer, they obviously won't give you a good price for it, nobody sells their vintage watches to rolex, NOBODY.

No, rolex doesn't recommend services every 2 years, their movements are reliable enough to work for 30 years without any problems lol, certified technicians and specialists in general say 5 to 7 years, and no one cares if they were serviced at the RSC, what country do you live in?

Just bought the Tuna. Now I don't really have any more that I want to get rid of, so I think I'll keep the collection like it is for a while. I guess if I was willing to give one up it would be to trade up the Grand Quartz for a hi-beat Seiko like a 45GS, but I'm not doing that any time soon. Maybe one day I'll swap the Tuna for a spring drive Tuna if I really end up wearing this watch a lot.

What do you look for in a watch? What separates a good watch from a mediocre? Is it just down to personal taste? I feel like I like the idea of watches as a fashion accessory, but I am new and don't know shit.

Nickel is a common allergen so avoid anything plated in it. Stainless steel is effectively inert to your body, and you could try titanium - it's well known for being biocompatible, or a NATO strap (these cover the back of the watch, so there's no metal contact). There's a chance it isn't a reaction with the metal/leather and more just the act of the watch slipping around and rubbing your skin that irritates you, in which case I am not a dermatologist.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 26 22:38:55 2018 No.13332949 >>13332938 >just the act of the watch slipping around and rubbing your skin that irritates you That is what I think is happening. Maybe I should try not tightening the band so much. But I will try titanium in the mean time. Thanks friendo.

Any half-decent steel watch will be 316L stainless which is low-nickel and pretty neutral for allergies. But if even just leather straps irritate your skin then I don't really know what to tell you. I've heard of painting the bottom of the watch with clear nail polish to create a barrier, but I don't know how well that works. It sounds like maybe it's just the friction that bothers you rather than the contact with any specific material, so I don't know how you can minimize that.

I'll also second what >>13332938 said about titanium and nato straps, those might be options too.

wrong

this is the cringest fucking way to wear a watch and all it does is let everyone around you know you think you’re a badass

I’m in the chair force and every beta faggot wears their gay ass Ben 10 omnitrix looking watches backwards like this while they work their desk jobs

you’re not a fucking seal faggot

Am I the only one who simply thinks that Rolex is just too much "Rolex"? While I know quite well that Rolex is also pure quality, the brand itself makes it look tasteless in a way. I think it has something to do with the fact that it's the go-to smug watch. Like, if someone want to look rich or want an expensive watch, they just automatically think "Rolex". When I see a Rolex, I only see that generic and tasteless wannabe brand. It just puts me off. I would never buy a Rolex.

Anyone know what I'm talking about or feel the same way?

I am going to stay with this watch until I can afford a Reverso or something else in that price range. It goes well with all of my fits, looks reasonably expensive, and has good finishing and machinery.

I'm going to buy a casio f-91w for working out/hiking/etc . there is something very attractive about this watch. nostalgia maybe?
