I don't like most watches at least the modern ones I mean. Rolex lost its appeal to me to, I was told throughout my 20s "Rolex is rare".

How is grand seiko last? You seem to hate the brand for no apparent reason their aesthetics are the best out of all those options. Movement engineering aside, their finishing is the best next to the likes of Rolex and Omega.

Also about the Breitling > Tudor thing, I would love to buy a breitling instead of a tudor but god fucking damn is their collection filled with ugly overpriced shit. Show me one good chronograph/dive watch from them equivalent to Tudor that looks good and is value for money. There's none.

Also what's the word on Longines, are they shit or not shit? Compared to the likes of Seiko, Nomos, Casio around that price range.

I dislike GS for their aesthetics. I haven't seen one yet that isn't bloated, heavy, thick and overall inelegant. The angular shapes of the cases are reminiscent of the worst era for watch design (80s and 90s), and just don't work with the textured dials.

It's the best integrated bracelet sports watch. By "best" I mean the sexiest, most iconic, most desirable and most culturally relevant one. It's one of those watches that had an actual impact on the whole watch industry and is immediately recognizable. AP was also smart enough to barely change the design in 50 years.
There's only a handful of those watches:
>Submariner
>GMT Master
>Datejust

The level of movement finishing is also disappointing. If you’re going to buy a VC with and off the shelf movement, the very least it should have is Geneva Seal level finishing.

It's a time only watch ffs, there was no reasons to make it this large. The case is also flat as a board, there's no way this looks good on a non-comically huge wrist. As >>18070092 pointed out the date window position is a clear indication the movement is swimming in that oversized case.

Well duh, Seiko discontinues its models all the time, of course they're not going to have anything unchanged in decades. None of their watches stay in continuous producion that long.
Also, the Tank changed significantly during its production span. The proportions, case surfaces let alone the movements in the original are quite different from the modern iterations. The only constant is "a rectangle with roman numerals" and even that is based on the postwar versions that were no longer square-ish but longer.

I'm waiting for "the call" but since I put my name in the hat I've started having trouble with my car and my house so all of my money and attention has to go into resolving those issues for now. If I am called before those issues are at least mostly buttoned up I'm going to have to make myself look like an asshole and tell them I have to pass for the time being, not so much because I'd be broke but because it would feel way too irresponsible to fuck around with toys like that when I'm worried about something much more serious and the possibility of some other issue popping up shortly after. It's annoying and fucked up but I guess that's life? Hopefully I have 50 or 70 more years to break into the real luxury watch space.

Colored sapphire would be even more difficult if you’re trying to do a Pepsi bezel. They’d have to do it in two pieces.

I’m not sure how they would implement it in a way that looks good. The Fifty Fathoms bezel is sapphire and it’s not great.

A simple date wheel isn't considered a complication and hasn't for a while because it's been industry standard in off-the-shelf movements for 30 years now.
On paper, any function other than minute and hour is considered a complication. That does include central seconds, that used to be considered a complication in the time of pocket watches. Now it's seen as a basic function. Same with date wheels today. It's technically a complication but it is so widespread that no one will present a time + date watch as a complicated watch.

Platinum is much heavier than steel and looks slightly more white than steel. White gold is much heavier than steel and has a slightly yellow tinge. Some people like them because it allows them to wear precious metal and feel that heft without everyone around them necessarily knowing that they are wearing precious metal. They call it "stealth wealth."

Steel is not a precious metal, it can rust and magnetize if not treated properly.
Platinum won't, it's also heavier and the shine is whiter. It's a bit more resistant too than some steel alloys.
White gold is more malleable and will get a bit yellow over time once its rhodium plating wears off.

If you want a spring drive, get the SLGA009 or if you want it a bit more dressy, then the SBGY009. If you got big hands and want a chronograph, then get the new tentagraph. If you want a hi-beat, then get the slgh005. Either way, you can't go wrong. The dial, case and hand finishing in general are unrivaled at that price point. Just make sure to not get a thick one.
Again, if you want a dresswatch though, I would recommend credor.

So platinum has advantages over steel, but I don't think the price is justified.
>White gold is more malleable and will get a bit yellow over time once its rhodium plating wears off.
This is beautiful, a slightly golden silver tone like champagne seems to me to be the most luxurious tone.

But I don't understand paying so much money for precious metals, I mean, for what a white gold Day Date costs you can buy a steel Royal Oak. I prefer the Royal Oak

Well platinum is a lot harder to work on than steel or gold. That and the price of the metal is usually what justifies the prices.
Usually. Because platinum has not been holding its value at all and has dropped recently, especially compared to gold which is steady as ever.
The prices for precious metal watches is never ever proportional to the extra cost of materials anyway. It's just a great way to massively hike up prices for cases that are easier to build and finish i the case of gold.

You should consider another hobby. If your wrist can't even support the most iconic wristwatch ever made by man, you need to reevaluate your life decisions. Get into cars or booze or something. Anything but this pathetic sour grape shit. It's sad to watch.

It wouldn't take me no two seconds to drop out of this hobby if I couldn't even wear the Moonwatch. No wonder you hate on sports watches the entire day, you can't wear them. You want to, but you just can't and it's driving you mad.

So for the most part, it is used to do electrolytic plating on other metals, or in platinum alloys to harden them.
