Ever been to Switzerland? They're pretty autistic when it comes to watches.
Didn't wear my watch one hot and sunny day, my friends ordered me back to their house to put mine on. Also if you're wearing a shirt or any other clothing with long sleeves; do not at any circumstances wear your watch below the end of the sleeve. Patek Philippe rules the world and the French are the plebs of the earth and nothing good can ever come from there.
These were my experiences and cultural learnings in Switzerland.
My friends live in Geneva, perhaps it's different in other parts.

Ok /wt/.

Tell me about Grand Seiko. From everything I've researched so far they seem to be very well made, and respected amongst watch enthusiasts. I would love it if someone could explain spring drive to me and why it is such a big deal. How do they stack up to rolex, Tudor, omega, etc?

I would really like to get a gmt, but I am unsure which at the moment.

>>13983460
The strong point in GS is the finishing which is why boomers tell you to buy one if you want to impress yourself and buy a Rolex if you want to impress others.
Springdrive is a quartz regulated mechanical movement, the gimmick there is the perfectly smooth sweep of the second hand and that's pretty much it.

>>13983611

Quartz ia good. Downsides are that it typically requires a battery, but that isn't an issue with spring drive, and that the hands on quartz movements tick once per second. This is triggering to many people that want smooth sweeping hands, which is again something that is not an issue with spring drive.

Downsides to spring drive is that watches with spring drive movements start at 2 grand, and that's not even the Grand Seiko ones.

spring drive doesn't but seiko also invented a new mechanical/quartz hybrid movement that did in the early 00's

they market it as a kinetic movement, i own one, you need to replace the capacitor ones every few years but it's far more accurate than any other mechanical or psuedo mechanical movement

Just bought pic related, it's my first automatic piece. Thought this was a pretty decent entry point and apparently, aside from the bracelet and crystal, it's supposed to be on par with much, much more expensive watches.
Invicta seems to have a pretty questional reputation but I couldn't care less what elitist who spend thousands of shekels think.
Has a Seiko movement (NH35A).

Their catalogue is somewhat confusing and their models are kinda all over the place. Also is servicing GS also as hard as they say? I also want smaller sized watches so 42mm diameter maximum.

I repair, but the store sells typical mallshit. Q&Q, Casio (unfortunately G-Shocks are a different supplier so we don't have them), Doxa, Maserati (shitter), Daniel Klein (MASSIVE shitter), and Citizen.

Citizen is the best brand we have, though the supplier only gives us common, uninteresting mallshit. Lots of Eco-Drives, radio-controller, titanium, but no automatics and no divers.

Help me /wt/. Name a good 80's watch that isn't a Rolex, slavshit, or a 7A-series Seiko.

Interesting, that's about $4300 USD which is almost exactly what I paid for an excellent condition Explorer 1 in the US. It must be pretty rough living on kagraroo dollars, everything sounds expensive.

I'm not really looking for a new watch right now, but that's probably not a bad deal especially since the used market for GS is pretty small.
