No for two reasons.
First, I can tell just from the image that that is a particularly low quality band. It will fray almost immediately and will be rough and uncomfortable, defeating the point of a NATO strap. The colors, I am almost positive, will be far more muted and ugly than in the pic so it will just look like shit rather than a vibrant rainbow you are imagining.
Second, you will look like a gigantic obnoxious prancing cake boy fag ass. Not even fags wear overt rainbow shit because they know only the most irritating and embarrassing activist fags go around with that kind of stuff.

Sorry m8 the f-91w is way more appropriate for all situations than a g-shock. I wouldn't wear a g-shock at the office or with a suit but an f-91w slips nicely under the cuff and just has a timeless style that lets you wear it in situations where no other digital watch would be acceptable.

STN vs TN is a meme, the real noticeable difference is because the 5000 series uses the updated solar cells that they started putting into the bluetooth modules, basically you're cutting out a pane of glass so the screen is a lot clearer. It's also why models like the B5600 barely see any improvement with a hydro mod. The sapphire screen is nice though.

Personally, the titanium model would have to be sub 500 bucks for me to consider it, which I don't think is ever going to happen. The chink bracelet is pretty good, it's not the most comfortable metal strap I've ever used but that's more down to the design, which is the same on the real one anyway. After filing it down to remove the dumb static first link that effectively makes the lug to lug width 60mm, and putting a little bit of foam under the clasp to steady it so it clips into place solidly, it's great. Miles better than the stock straps.

I know for a fact that a $15 watch is not the same as a $10k Rolex, when you have a Sub everyone knows what it is and what it means. But it also has a negative connotation in my post-commie country, so I thought Tudor might be better.

If you like Tudor you effectively have two amazing choices. The Pelagos, which is much better than a Rolex Sub and arguably the best all-around forward thinking dive watch of this generation, or the BB58 which is vintage done right with pure warmth and style.
That's it. Pick one, and if "b-b-but it's not ROLEX" enters into your thoughts you need to grow the fuck up.

What’s bad about the movement? Because the answer to >>15198658 is “yes, there’s plenty!”
Authenticity? Well yeah, it’s not identical to the OG thing, but that’s just the same problem the MOTM speed master is suffering from.

the thing is that with no logo or text a watch like that can actually look really shitty because all you have is this flat untextured dial with gigantic space between the center of the watch and the bezel. it makes it look like there's just huge empty space. that's why you have to put some stuff there.

OK, you lost me. If you want to play the German card, do it correctly! It should be EnergIEreserve (and seit 1989…). Plus, it's too much text anyways. Almost a Rolex-level novel on the dial.

And that's a fake of the Seiko Tuna can.
However, personally, I'm much more OK with that one than the Nomos fake, since the latter is a tool watch (that's now moved way beyond tool prices) so I think it's legit if someone takes up the space Seiko left. However with a fancy dress watch, it's different. Those were never supposed to be cheap, so why try to fake it?

Quartz is superior and Seiko actually does it right. You don't want to be servicing your watches every 5 years especially if the service costs more than the watch itself. Seiko solar quartz is very tough and perfect for a diver like this, you can expect it to run for 20 years without changing the capacitor.

Does anyone know a "good" watch with a helicopter on the dial, or some helicopter heritage?
I would have thought Vostok probably has some, as their Komandirskies have loads of dials with military motives, but so far, I haven't found a heli. Loads of fighter jets, submarines, aircraft carriers, all kinds of other naval subjects, tanks, rocket launchers and what have you not, but no mil mi-24 or kamov k-52 or any other of the russian legendary helicopters. Am I just not finding it, or does it really not exist?

[Anonymous No.15199345]

>>15199302
By dressing up I don't mean wearing it as a dress watch. It's more about versatility. When you have a black dialed silver watch like the first one, you can pretty much pair it with everything because it's extremely neutral. You can have a popping colorful NATO and the flashiness will be tempered by the cool silver and neutral black. You can have it on a leather strap where the silver will play well with the earthy, natural leather. You can have it on a bracelet where silver bracelets are the norm and have something substantial and sporty. You can pair it with a nylon and have something that still looks rugged and classic. The sky is the limit.
When your watch is all black, it looks severe, tactical, muted to the point of being like plastic. You can't put it on a silver bracelet. You can put it on a NATO but it's going to look way too military, there will be no fun. You can't put it on leather, it will look too cold to match the strap. All black watches just suck because you are going balls deep into that whole aggressive military mood and you can never lose it. You will get tired of it.
And I like the really dark blue on the first watch bezel more, because having seen it in person that type of blue is so dark it basically looks black most of the time, making your watch understated and versatile, but then it hits the light and it's very rich and adds a ton of depth. That sort of little accent of color adds years of enjoyment to your watch, you'll look down at your wrist, it'll catch the light and you'll smile. That won't happen with your tacticool watch where you will be at a party one day and think "my watch looks like I should be shitkicking in Iraq"

hes one of those muh quartz people

if you just want a watch that you dont need to pay attention to, get a quartz. You can throw it in a corner and just wear it occasionally. It'll keep time better than 99% of all mechanical out there.

if you want to marvel at a piece of engineering and know that your watch is powered by tiny springs and gears and wheels instead of just a computer chip and some batteries you get a mechanical. If you want to be able to put your ear to the watch and hear the escapement wheel and knowing that is a physical thing---to me its worth my money, the hundreds of tiny physical components needed to make a mechanical watch work is so much more than a quartz

The only real marvel of engineering are spring drive watches, because they aren't based on a completely outdated design and use quartz regulation to achieve a reasonable level of accuracy, while relying on mechanical advantage to power the second hand.

Decent quartz should be within 3 seconds per month, though. The problem is that the quartz was a race to the bottom, so proper regulation never became important.

People never cared too much about accuracy, a quartz watch that loses 15 seconds a month is still better than any mechanical which will lose 15 seconds a week/day. On the plus side, atomic solar is a cheap affordable solution to the issue of quartz inaccuracy. Mine syncs every night, even when it's strapped to my wrist.

Given how far we are into the IoT at this point, I think complaining about outside signals is a moot point.

But is that radio signal ever going to be turned off? Doubtful, there's too much legacy hardware that relies on it.

wearing watches is about enjoyment. A quartz does not give me that enjoyment, so I dont wear it. Its that simple. Technology is only useful when it improves our lives.

I like knowing that I'm "keeping the watch alive" with my own energy.

No, wearing watches is about telling the fucking time. Wearing a watch for "enjoyment" is like putting your saw in a frame and marveling at the craftsmanship instead of fucking using it.

Having to set the time every week or month isn't a cool aspect of watches. It's the mindless drudgery that should've been eliminated decades ago, but big watch companies all banded together to keep selling trash as premium trash because they didn't want to lose their market share to 5 dollar Casios.

Also, cooking with gas is just fucking normal. It's much better than the electric options in terms of speed.

The power demand is on a completely different level though. It's physically impossible to put a battery that would last more than maybe a month into a smartwatch.

The difference here is that all those "functions" aren't constantly sucking up battery life.

I hate all of these things.

>now you will argue that you "dont need these functions", while ignoring that is the same reason I dont need a quartz watch.
But the major function of quartz is telling the time. The major function of a smartwatch is being a cut-down phone on your wrist. If you're interested in watches, you should probably be interested in telling the time, but to you, a watch is just a bracelet with a funny looking face with things that spin around it.

>so now you admit you yourself are wearing a watch for your own enjoyment.
I'm wearing a watch to tell the time. I paid about a 50 dollar excess to get a watch I liked the look of instead of going for the cheapest model with the features I wanted.

I use my glasses as a tool, right? They enable me to see. But I'm fine with paying a little more for ones I enjoy looking at, as long as I'm not compromising on the basics like titanium, a decent FOV lens, and bridge comfort. If I saw some glasses I loved the look of, but they failed to meet my parameters, I wouldn't buy them.

If you don't want to pay for one of those get the regular dw5600e, and one of the chink titanium bracelet at bezel kits off AliExpress, even if you don't want to swap the bezel the chink Ti bracelets are fantastic and way fucking better than the shitty plastic combi bracelet that casio makes.
Yes the battery in the non solar ones will last for 10+ years as long as you don't use the backlight all the time.

It's actually my primary work watch, the bars may be struck down to silver metal but the resin is incredibly forgiving and still shows very well. Been through a ton of tile floor installations, demo, carpentry etc and is without a gouge.

I find them annoyingly difficult to read, particularly in bright sunlight while wearing fogged-up or dusty eyepro (and especially since the digits are already kinda small.). The zulus are nice but I'm on the fence about the chunky resin adapters.

[Anonymous No.15200198]

I havent had any issue with the adapters and they're less chunky than the ones that come stock honestly. First thing I did was change out the band, not a fan of the ribbing. The difficulty to see at certain light is an issue at times but honestly I think the issue with the eyepro may be more in part to the shitty lenses you're using.

[Anonymous No.15200243]

>>15200216
also a shitty part about the 5600 in general is the short backlight timer. Only a couple seconds and is an exacerbated problem with negative display. But its on sale on amazon for like $90 I think

Yeah, you're probably right about this. I'm pretty damn blind so I have ESS Crossbows with the double lens prescription setup. I don't think the lenses are too terrible but there are two of them in front of each eye.

EL takes a shitload of battery life. On some of them, you can at least set it to 3 seconds, but the 1.5 second version is the equivalent of 5 minutes of direct sunlight, or 8 hours of fluorescent lighting worth of charging. The LEDs consume less power, but they look far uglier.

alright, thanks. yeah, i figured it's probably bad value from a "watch buff" perspective and 500 usd seems waaay overpriced. copped it ca 18 months ago because i liked it from a design perspective. retail was 30k jpy (ca. 280 usd) if memory serves and i haven't had any issues so far.

no such thing, despite what watch snobs will say ( like most consumer hobbies)

watch collecting is more about horological history, value, quality, complications, and the joy the watch gives to the wearer. A $10 casio f91-w is as much a watch as a $5000 omega speedmaster.
