you talking vintage or modern? In both cases, grand seiko. Obviously for the later. Brut vintage it's harder to decide. I guess a 36K movement in a KS is unbeatable for the price.

How do you guys feel about wearing expensive watches to manual labor and trade jobs? I know they can handle it but it feels wrong to wear something like an explorer or submariner on a job site turning wrenches or hammering or welding or whatever and most likely get them scratched up.

they can't, you mong
if you are in dust the sub bezel will clog up and die and turn the other way within a year
you will beat up the entire case and band over time, possibly pop out springbars and the watch falling off
possibly cracking ceramic bezels
possibly damaging the movement doing retard sub 80iq manual labor job shock things to it continously
in short, it will fucking die and get destroyed if you actually do monkey iq level work
in this case, wear a pure rubber shitter if apropriate

Has anyone had any experience with Omega watches?

I tried this on the other day at a shop and I really liked the dial, but thought it was a bit too big and showy. Not too sure if 43mm is a bit big for a watch.

My other consideration would be a Grand Seiko but is worried about their durability over time. How does Omega hold up in that area?

[Anonymous No.17953558]

>>17953556
Well I'm a fucking weeb so my opinion is very subjective. What I can tell you is that, GS makes everything (everything) in house. Have unique movements. An amazing polishing and pretty much, from my anecdotal experience, unmatched finishing at that price point. The dials are also top notch. The bracelets though are bad, for the price. "Bad" as in, it feels like it should be on a watch half the price. The thing that makes GS a better choice for me though is that, Seiko is very transparent about every step of the way of production and making of the watches, from the case and dial to the movement. Omega on the other hand is very secretive. They don't show where or how their watches are made, they don't tell you where they get their dials, their cases, if it's china swatch-metal etc.
To me, that's a too much of a red flag (the complete lack of transparency) What are they hiding? Well we don't know.
The hour markers are hand polished btw.

[Anonymous No.17953559]

I don't care so much about the metal bracelet. I might switch out out for a leather one since it's more comfortable to wear down the line anyways.

I have heard that GS is more prone to scratches and their magnetic/shock resistance is kind of below par. Don't care much about brand recognition since I'd rather get something I like and can wear for a long time and isn't looking to resell.

Have you noticed any damages to a GS for daily wear?

[Anonymous No.17953567]

>>17953564
I daily a ceramic watch (pic related) because of my fear that the polishing will wear off if I daily the GS. Ceramic won't scratch (as easily). I am oversees right now so I don't have the GS with me, I was wearing it daily for 2 weeks after getting it and I noticed a few micro scratches on the bracelet only.
I can't give you a longterm review but, from what I heard and read, the black polish shine or zaratsu as they call it, wears off quickly.

[Anonymous No.17953569]

>>17953567
I think you can see them here, the micro scratches. The bracelet is much more prone to them.
And let's be real, after daily wearing it for years, every watch will look used, but the problem with any GS is that, if you send it in for re-polishing, they will absolutely Not use zaratsu to re-polish it. So yeah, I guess longterm GS isn't the best choice.

[Anonymous No.17953571]

>>17953569
I see. Well, thanks for showing the pictures of the White Birch. I was thinking of getting that or the Lake Suwa version if I do decide to settle for the GS. The snowflake could also do but I don't really like the wind meter on the dial.

Last thing, excluding the Spring Drive, how is the movement on the Hi Beat watches? I have heard that a lot of people have had accuracy issue with the pure mechanical movements.

[Anonymous No.17953574]

>>17953569
>if you send it in for re-polishing, they will absolutely Not use zaratsu to re-polish it.

>>17953571
Not him, but where did you hear that? The high beat movements are generally very well liked and do well all around. I don't think Spring Drive is overrated at all but sometimes I think it is unfortunate that it overshadows the great pure mechanical calibres GS has.

Most Omega and GS look already VERY dated IMO. That Omega Worldtimer you posted looks like an innovative design from a few years ago, that's slowly turning into a cheesy fashion items from the last decade. It's utterly repulsive and will not age well, just like those beefy Breitling from the early 2000s that nobody wants now.
I have the same feeling with GS. I've never seen someone with good taste wearing one. Just look at this faggot >>17953567 who also bought the most disgusting looking Tudor he could fine. It says a lot about the GS demographic.

When it comes to (expensive) watches I think it's important to get something timeless, because these objects will stay with you for a long time. You don't want something that is too deep-rooted into its era, you want something time-proof that would looked good 50 years ago and that will still look good in 50 years. Rolex is the safest option of course, but the Speedmaster also works.

People will sperg at my post because "DURRRR THE WORLDTIMER HAS A COOL COMPLICATION" or whatever but I don't care. Deep down you all know I'm right, you fucking faggots.

Very true. The only good-looking Omegas are the ones that look like they were made decades ago, except they're all too thick.

correct, but that's because it's an omeyguh and also they want the daytona instead which is, you guessed it, auto
but to keep it relevant, the biggest sneedmaster coper and collector in this cope general has the auto and daydate sneedmaster and considers it one of his grails does he not? so obviously the most autistic fans want it, how many sneedmasters do you own? not more than the omegacoper does I would assume
again, you got demolished here

the run of the mill sneedmaster is not even the original anyway in current year, the 321 caliber one is shit tons more, your point invalidated again, barely anyone gets this anyway

In a weird way it actually makes more sense to ball out on a rolex than a car. Cars wear down and need a lot of money to service and fuel up and the more expensive the car is the more all of that is going to cost you, and they hemorrhage resale value by the second. Rolex service costs are maybe $1500 every 10 years? If you even bother getting it serviced? And if you decided to resell it you might even make money. At worst you should get about 90% of your money back assuming you didn't massacre it. So I say wearing a submariner driving your Toyota to work actually makes some sense.

>Anyone have any experiences with the PRX?

Yeah, I own one, a quartz like yours, though mine is has the ice blue dial. It's a fine watch. People like it as well. I've received compliments on mine and yours should stand out even more with the green dial.

The movement is accurate and the seconds hand stops dead-on on the markers.
It's also pretty comfortable once you get the bracelet sized, since it's so thin.
The lume isn't great, but that's a minor quibble.

You can also get aftermarket straps for it and it completely changes the feel of the watch.

I genuinely am not sure if these retards are trolling or not. You'd think defending hard to read watches is a take so stupid it has to be a joke, but this site has shocked me before.

In general I really think people underestimate how important legibility is on a watch. I have a watch that I ordered online without seeing it in person and in the pictures it appears that there's decwnt contrast between the hands, markers and dial, but when it arrived I found that the hands and dial and markers aside from the lume in them is all the same color. I can usenit but every extra microsecond I spend trying to sort out where the hands and markers are is time I shouldn't have had to waste doing something so simple.

you're not accounting for the opportunity cost of investing in the S&P500 or NASDAQ 100. It just doesn't make sense for a regular person to own such a jewelry, in 30 years 15k can somewhat easily become 150k in an index fund not adjusting for inflation, and now instead of "passing down a 45k rolex bought for 15k" for you kid, you can pass down 150k in cash.

Guys, I need help finding a specific watch. A friend of mine had a silver Fossil watch that he tried to give to me years ago. It had a face that rotated with a day/night image on it. It wasn't a windowed view, it was half the watch. It would rotate the opposite halves underneath the face to show the picture. I've been searching ahops and online for even a picture of it but I've never seen another.

Nobody said anything about investments you one trick autistic rubber suit wearing mens room solicitor. The point isn't that you make money, the point is comparing relative losses on expensive cars versus expensive jewelry. On one you lose your shirt(the designer top you kept the reciept for in case you post a picture of yourself on /fa/ and get roasted for looking like a sex doll) on the other you don't. So wearing a nice watch and driving a shitter really isn't that bad compared to wearing literally any watch and driving a sports car.
