Why is it almost impossible to find a digital watch that doesn't look like shit?
The only semi-decent examples I can think of are so-called "Casio Royale" (AE-1200), the round version (AE-1000) and some variations of F-91W with a steel band. But even those don't look all that great, and they're still made from cheap plastic that is just painted to look like metal. The only one with a steel case is that stupid overpriced (and overweight) G-Shock GMW-B5000.

Its a little more complicated right now because its currently a leap year and its January. You set the date window like any other watch. Then you align the year with the month (since its a leap year, use the black names), this will also adjust the day wheel and it will align it so you can see all of the days of the current month.

I don't know, look at the movement for example, the "funny looking screw" that holds the rotor in place, it's incredibly shittily made, so is the piece around the spring thingy, I have no idea what it's called, if just those two pieces of metal were up to par with the rest of the movement, it would be almost identical, but they stand out so much that it's immediately obvious it's not on the same level of quality.

[Anonymous No.14942775]

>>14942768
A typical automatic watch requires 650-800 full rotations of the rotor to wind for 24 hours' worth. Winding that much in (say) a 13 hour day requires one turn per 50-60 seconds, on average. So yeah, automatic watches would generally need winding either by crown, or (in its absence) by something that moves the rotor around such as a winder box (ew). But it's not as frequent as with a manually-wound watch.

Omega has a very long horological history, both in terms of quality watches and in terms of innovation. Vintage Omegas are just as good as modern ones if serviced well, and the aesthetic is good for the most part. The Seamaster 600 is an excellent watch, but all the Seamasters are engineered well without looking as bulky or ordinary as the Submariners. Omegas are excellent entry-level watches in this price-range.

or something to that effect. Maybe I'm remembering it wrong.
I got the impression that handwinding is more robust on actual handwind movements, and that it shouldn't be relied upon heavily for automatics because the mechanism is relatively more delicate or some shit and this makes it more prone to fault.

Why do ETA's grind themselves into metal dust? What kind of design is that? Does the 2801 or whatever handwinding calibre do this too?

This doesn't surprise me at all considering swatch has factories in China itself. Fakers don't have work very hard faking Omega as they just blag seconds parts and maybe not seconds out the back door of the factory itself: bracelets, cases and maybe even dials too.
This is why I'm wary about a """swiss""" maker that owns factories outside of Switzerland, though that's no real indication I guess, I mean the industry were commonly using Germany before and TAG etc., don't own factories I'm China but get parts nevertheless.

I'm gonna go ahead and say it. There's nothing more cucked in this world than buying a Tudor. Imagine forever living in the shadow of Rolex. Imagine always being the "other" choice, the poor man's Rolex. The disdain when you explain what Tudor is. Imagine wilfully giving money to the brand designing their watches like shit just so they don't canibalise the main brand's sales. They know the snowflake hands look like dogshit. They know they'd devastate the entry luxury price point with actually competent designs, but then nobody would cough up the cash for a Rolex and why would they do that when they can just piggy ride off of it's success. They even purposely withheld the Tudor Sub back in the 50s just so Rolex could take the credit. Imagine wishing "Damn, I wish this was a Submariner..." every time you look at your wrist. And imagine paying several grand for that reminder. Buying a Tudor truly is suffering.

It's only slightly bigger, but it looks bigger because it's a jarring white square instead of a smaller metal circle.

My problem with the snowflake hands is that they chickened out and didn't go all the way with the snowflake dial as well, like they did (sort of) with the Pelagos, so it's just a mishmash of historic references with no common design cues to tie the whole thing together.

And that's where it should fucking stay. You know how the old Tudor subs used to look? Like Rolex. But they can't do that now because they know every normie would just buy a Tudor instead (Like the braindead retards on reddit flooding the threads with bb58).

Pretty much all dive watches look like rolex subs and tudor has had so many different dial/hand combos and variations over the years using a parts mishmash is absolutely in keeping with their design philosophy.

>My problem with the snowflake hands is that they chickened out and didn't go all the way with the snowflake dial as well, like they did (sort of) with the Pelagos, so it's just a mishmash of historic references with no common design cues to tie the whole thing together.
Fucking this. When I heard way back that tudor was fixing their shit and coming back with a vengeance I thought great finally the snowflake dial. Nope. Just the hands, unless you go for the ridiculously chunky pelagos and it's retarded dial novel.

Tudor should have done the full thing. Snowflake (or cobra) hands and the square indicies. It should've been their base look.
But, I suppose at the end of the day they know that people just want from them budget submariners and so round indicies it was.

Don't listen to the niggers crying abiut the snowflake hands, it makes the watch very readable and doesn't look like too much at all in real life. That being said, I'd still save up for a 114270 or 14270. It's on my list eventhough I have a bb36.

[Anonymous No.14944604]

>>14944585
I walked into a dealer cash in hand to buy a serviced 14270 and walked out after trying it on. I know it's supposed to be a good watch but it looks and feels cheap on the wrist, probably because of those cheap ass bracelets. Damn do I regret it though seeing how much they sell for now.

Vostokfriends,
what do you think about the 710 case?

[Anonymous No.14944747]

>>14944690
A 710 will be my next watch, unless it's a hand-wound Komandirski (for thinness). The 420 is okay, but wears quite small.

Also, it seems mine was regulated by a magician, or hand-picked from a bin of horseshit for export into €urope. I set it to +22s yesterday (some 36 hours ago) and it's still within a second of +23s now. Surely that's abnormal, or lasts just until the fox-grease distributes itself into all the wrong spots. (as with Soviet gear in general.)

Mako, bambino, ray and whatever else out there has been named by forum members and the usa orient distributor who was eager to shill and jump on the

I rotate between SLA017, 114270, AB0910371B1X1and SBPG001

The SBPG001 gets the most comments (by zoomers) by far followed by the Navitimer (by women) then the Explorer (by old boomers). No one ever notices my SLA, which is literally one of the things I like about it.

No catch, it's a sub 300 handwind chrono made in China without the markup for a brand pretending they're not Chinese. The Seagull movement inside is decent AFAIK, based on some old Swiss Venus movement, used in a lot of microbrands. You could do worse desu.

Ignore this absolute fucking moron. Don't go using random adhesive and sealing material on shit you wear on your skin, the same go to AliExpress or chink replacement bands on Amazon. Best case scenario you get skin irritation, worst case scenario you find out you've cancer a few years later.

I thought maybe the bezel doesn't matter when it comes to water resistance, and it all depended on the module itself which remains unaltered.

the fact that you're asking this here implies that you don't have the sort of documented online buying/selling history that can be leveraged for trust in forum transactions
nobody (non-retarded) is going to buy a multi $k's watch from a literal who online, much less an international who
scams go both ways
best YOU can do is go to a used watch dealer and get ripped off
so much for that "used market price" lol

if you can find someone to sell to face to face where you live, preferably in cash then that's the best you can do that's safe for you and for them, having box and papers and receipt will help
every other method is fraught with risk and again, since you're asking here it's unlikely you're able to recognize said risk and any red flags when they appear.
