I don't mean this as any sort of insult, I'm just genuinely curious, but what do you guys get out of owning a high end (mechanical) watch? Since mechanical movements are almost always going to be less accurate than quartz, it doesn't seem like it's for any practical reason. I've heard stuff along the lines of "appreciating the craftsmanship," but it seems like one will have little to no involvement themselves with said craftsmanship, since you don't exactly see much of the movement and it's not really something you can tinker with, at least as far as I know (which is quite little tbf). Is just knowing in your mind that it took skill to create (plus any historical significance) enjoyable? I've only ever worn f91ws and was looking to get a lower end (<$500) flieger but find the idea of appreciating something for its quality difficult when I know its primary purpose (telling time) is more effectively fulfilled by something much cheaper.

I buy a watch whenever I hit a goal, it's a way to reward myself.

Each watch represents something that I achieved and it's a way of sharing my story with my children and grandchildren because those are the individuals who I intend to leave them with.

Why do I like watches? Cars are too expensive, complicated and they take up space.

Watches amaze me for the reason why cars amaze me. Little parts of a machine are moving around just to tell me the time.

It's a combination of symbolism, functionality, and status(not to brag to others, but for myself).

The first watch I got from my dad was an automatic diver in a kids size, and I've liked the aesthetic since. Having it go tickticktick and having a see through back all gives me that childhood joy.. It wasn't until years later I learned the dial layout and mercedes hands were 100% Rolex Submariner based, but that aesthetic is still 'it' for me.


To tell time there is quartz and teletext. Mechanicals are all about being cool and having nice things, for me. That said, I'm not prepared to pay thousands for them.

That's a good point. I had the same thoughts over and over again, just see it as a fashion item or toy, nothing serious. And don't spend more money than you can afford to lose unless you are a mechanical appreciation autist but most of those people larp anyways. Also "muh tradition" and "muh craftmanship" is thrown out of the window in the shitter tier (sub 1000$) and even with some luxury watches because most of the parts are digitally designed, laser cut and mass produced. Most brands literally buy mass produced movements (by Miyota, ETA, Sellita), there's no old man in Switzerland, sitting by the fire in his wooden house, piecing together your watch (in most cases anyways). So yeah the point of getting a mechanical watch is 100% irrational and purely emotional, for me having a mechanical watch on my wrist even if it's just a mass produced Miyota movement shitter has a very special feeling. It's hard to describe, you have to try it and then you either get it or you don't (hope that you don't, this shit "hobby" is costly). If I had to rationalize it, I think it's a combination of the added weight by the movement, the ticking, having to wind it and it being like a little organism that needs your energy to stay alive. Also the slight inaccuracies are part of the charme. As you see, nothing makes sense.

Exactly. People do not buy them because they are practical. No one cares about the fact quartz is more accurate. "Good enough" is more than acceptable since high end watches are bought for their aesthetics, status symbols / flexing, as jewellery. They are the epitome of luxury goods.

400+ (450 is about median, some a bit more) is tax included and free shipping in EU, so all in.

€248 in Singapore is sharpest so far, which would mean about €340 all in. (€0.80 max customs rate for watch, + 21% VAT and -+€30,- for DHL/Whoever to submit to customs).

There's always a small chance they kiss your parcel in customs, but a VERY small one. If it's DHL you can expect a tax bill, as they make a profit on the €30,- they bill for filing the customs papers.

The ones without power reserves are <250 all in in EU mostly, but I don't like the dial layout as much.

2 chronos with the same movement is kinda redundant, keep the better looking baltic and flip the geckota (there's been anons asking about it in these threads for a while). SM300 is ok but a sub would be better. GS and speedy are pretty nice. Personally I'd consolidate the 2 nomos into one white dial club, but they're not bad as is. All in all firmly above average

Overpriced shit with "some" interesting design cues that ends up looking forgettable. The company was built by an economics and marketing graduate, some lawyer, photographer with neither of them having ANY horological knowledge. Basically they hopped on the microbrand bandwagon, only they knew their way about actually making a website, which, btw is full of the most overused marketing buzzwords you can imagine, allthewhile giving zero info on what grade their bought calibers even are.

The vast majority (all?) of their movements from that era have date wheel, and since back then they still presented their products as utilitarian, it was probably a matter of 'we have it, so we will use it'.. Having a day-date complication was one of the staples of the Seiko5 line as well.

They seemed to think it was very important.

[Anonymous No.15841121]

>>15840447
It's more fun than a quartz watch purely because it's more interactive. You need to wind it, sometimes it winds down and you need to reset the time/date, you can hear it ticking away at a rapid pace, etc. Sure if you JUST want to see the time and don't care about anything else, those things could be little more than a nuisance, but for the mechanical watch fan it's like playing with an expensive toy.
Also, the fact that a purely mechanical device based on centuries old tech can be fine tuned to be accurate to a few seconds per day is impressive to me.

Is there a way of knowing how much power reserve you have without an indicator other than a guesstimate? A watch will keep on ticking for a short bit even if you wiggle it some.

If it has a window in the back or a skeleton dial you can sometimes see the mainspring. If its all spiralled its unwound, and if it sits flat pressed against the barrel it's wound.

If you can't see the spring you're out of luck.

Even the most subtle of water ingress causes that. I’ve seen this with abused Seiko 5s with non screw down crowns. Moisture will somehow creep past the crown gasket, however how small the amount, and affect the movement. At some point of that watch’s life there would have been fog developing under the crystal. Everything there looks salvageable, though. Give the rotor a soak in white vinegar

Could be corrosion, due to some kind of fluid that got in. Looks a bit like oily residue. Maybe the guy worked somwhere where oil particles were an issue. Oil can get into stuff where water can not, depends on the viscosity of the oil tho.
Or it was overoiled in a bad servicing and then moisture came in and cause this weird corrosion. Maybe in combination with overoiling and not being used for a long time, so it could settle in spots and start corrosion.

Arnie is in the category of wearing ostentious jewelry apart from his watches, skull rings, thick chain bracelets an other outdated ed hardy tier gaudy shit. On him, even a gargantuan U-Boot meme of a watch wouldnt look out of place.

His own bespoke collection bombed. The whole deal isnt as hot, nor marketable as some would like to think, especially now, when the market is starting to demand smaller diameters, yet, the watch game being what it is, it will take several years, perhaps decades until the bigger names catch on to the trend (looking at you Swatch group lessers, reproducing viable shit in disgusting diameters and busted proportions (Longines, TAG, Tissot)).
At that time it might be too late, for microbrands catching up to the market demans and due to the rona, or poorfags being poor. Look how Baltic slid right in, giving peak aesthetics at a reasonable price. None of the known watch companies with muh heritage can offer the same.

I have no relatable picture, so return to monke and smaller case sizes. Yes, nigga, if the mechanical chronograph movement is 28mm in diameter, we do not need 42mm case to house it, you dumb swiss niggers.

But most people can't tell watches apart anyway, so trying to impress people is generally not going to work.

That's more or less what I intend to do.
My fiancee got me a nice watch that I intend to keep forever, just like she intends to keep her ring. (Well, let's hope.)
It does not make much more sense than cycling, upgrading every few years or whatever, but it has the sense that you give to it, I guess?

From there it wouldn't make a lot of sense to chase nicer watches afterwards. I appreciate other much more expensive watches, but I don't need to own them to appreciate them.
I'm still keeping my collection of G-shocks and affordables, mostly for sentimental or variety reasons. Researching and curating a collection is fun, but it's just that. Fun.

>>15842213 is a reference 196.0038, >>15842230 is a reference 198.0006. browse through the sold items section of ebay searching for "Omega Geneve Megaquartz" and "Omega Constellation Electronic", find the exact same models as yours, then compare the condition of the sold ones to your watches and you'll have a rough estimate of their current market value. when it comes to vintage quartzes the most important factor price wise is if they work or not, so don't compare the price of a sold watch in working condition to one thats not working or vice versa

Haha, I bet it's some underpaid watch journo having his private revenge on Rolex ADs by getting a bunch of minority people to put on their ill-fitting sunday suits and start stalking Rolex boutiques having daily spergouts about the love they hold for the brand in hopes that they'll be able to buy an "explorah" or a "datejusst" that they can flip for crack money.
The actual rules are:
1. Be white
2. Don't be poor
It's simple as that. Have you noticed how the alleged Rolex scarcity seems to mainly affect "self-described middle class" Americans? It's the reason why.

I hope people don't follow this advice. Literally just walk in, be friendly and that's it. I've been told that the waitlist is months long but after I put a reservation down (name only, no money obviously) they called me the week after to come and pick it up and that's that. Right now my local dealer (rather small town and AD) doesn't have too much inventory but there's still multiple steel models to take with you.
I've tried on Pateks and Langes in the most casual clothes I own. Dealers want to sell you stuff and if they can't sell to you they at least want to get you hooked on their product. Stop it with the business gentlesir larp.

Quartz watches (while I am a connoisseur of quartz shitters) just don't scratch the same itch. While yeah, the tech is "cool" i guess, I just don't feel it is anywhere as impressive of making a windy spring and some gears somehow accurately tell the time for days on end without needing to be reset. Practically, when you're getting into high end mechanicals, they push into quartz-tier accuracy anyway. Plus, at a certain point, it's a status symbol.
