Watches should be simple, subtle, and elegant. They're not meant to be spotted from across the room. If it has more than one chronograph and a dial bigger than 45mm then you're doing it wrong.

Timex is a cheap watch company that knows it is a cheap watch company. Its customers KNOW it's a cheap watch company, and buy Timex watches when they want cheap, casual watches. They are durable enough for everyday use, simply designed and are reasonably priced.

Michael Kors and Fossil are companies who manufacture watches with similar (or lower) quality to Timex, at a higher price, with gaudy designs. They masquerade as a high-end brand and their customers fall for it (fuccbois like you). Honestly, if you really think your MK watch is better than a Timex, you're a fucking retard with no taste.

I got rid of a lot when I moved a few weeks ago and need new basic tees so I bought a bunch. I need the pink dress and the coloured denim for recruitment, so I bought a cheap pair of jeans and an at-least-interesting dress since we're all wearing the same colour for that round. The loafers were a good fit/price and I have loafers on my fall want list. The Spring Breakers hoodie was a bit indulgent, but I want more loungewear. The skirt is just a summer basic.

1. Omega
>vintage Omegas are bullshit
if you want to sell, only get if CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN. like pie pans better be fucking spotless, including the crystal and fucking band. they will take forever to sell

pawn shops won't buy em you have to sell them to some wannabe watch collector.

I sold my vintage omega deville seamaster to a "collector" who also happened to collect "invicta" as he was telling me that that's the only "real swiss brand" and how I should trade in the cartier tank I was wearing at the time for an invicta diver..
2. Rolex
rolex will sell, but it takes a very long time. if you have a rolex up for sale cheap people will assume its fake and won't buy (even the ones that retail cheap like the datejusts from the 80's in goldtone) if you have it up for retail/going rate nobody will buy because "oh my god rolex im so not ready to own one"

what you want to flip, tudor, rolex's vintage cousin, popular in the collectors market. and sell faster than WASR-10's are a Russian nightclub
3. IWC
never had one, mostly just business watches, resale is not very high. the people that know about it just buy new. it is a well known brand but not a brand to be buying and selling.
4.Tag Heuer
shit tier watches, avoid tag heuer like the plague unless you want to get into buying and selling watches, I started when I was 18. avoid the quartz tag watches, they have absolutely zero resale. average customer, club douche with an infiniti g35.
5/6.Citizen/Seiko
have about 3 seikos, and 2 citizens, they work for about 5 years, and no maintence, NO RE SALE VALUE, IF YOU HAVE ONE IT IS NOT WORTH GETTING IT SERVICED DO NOT SERVICE?MAINTAIN A SEIKO WAER UNTIL IT STOPS WORKING AND BUY ANOTHER FOR $350

Rolex are what they are, their reputation preceeds them and they hold their resale like a motherfucker. Great place to start if you want to collect.

I love IWCs since I've got one meself, there are a lot of critics out there though, no where near as many afficionados.

Tag Heuer : Genuinely not fan, but I think it's cause a lot of purists don't like them and consider them more a marketing company.

Nah bruv they good, but like any vintage watch you gotta make sure it's in good condition and have it checked out by a real watch maker.

Vintage doesn't always mean vintage, one of my old man's 70s rolex has parts from the 90s.

What that means is a lot of heritage lines aren't carried through in terms of parts, so sometimes you literally have to have parts made for vintage watches because the company simply won't deal with you.

you shouldn't be in the market of buying/selling if you need to get a watch checked out to determine if its a good deal or not.

just because it says OMEGA on it doesn't mean its good.

I bought my Portuguese 7 day knowing the resale issue. But I have none. because the 7 Day keeps its value extremely well and I got a massive discount from the jewellers since our family has bought JLC and VC from them in the past.

Omega and Rolax are mass market builders, and the majority of people interested in watches don't see them as much more than a hype brand with a status indicator.

Quality watches aren't really found within their confines. That isn't to say they are bad, it is just to say that the majority of their watches are typically not even in the same market as some of the more niche level companies you brought up.

Personally, if someone had a Stowa on the table in front of me next to a Rolex, and it was a watch I had to keep and never get rid of. I'd grab the Stowa every day of the week.

>>6586728
>>6586753
The Mark series dives hard in used prices, meanwhile some of their larger offerings seem to keep up quite well. So I'd agree it is model based on if it is an "investment" or not.

Over all though, I think selling a used IWC would be more difficult then a different brand.

[TRYHARD !fC3GORJchA No.6586808]

>>6586771
>Portuguese
That line is likely one of the best in terms of retaining value, so you did well there.

I do doubt you bought it from a dealer cheaper than used market though. Unless it is a demo/past season/or for some reason was unloadable where-ever you are.

[sieg heil !szTe0VDR1w No.6586819]

in addition to lower quality.

OMEGA made pleanty of watches in the 80's driving down demand.

OMEGA was also a cheaper brand in the 80's than they are now

oemega seamasters from the 80's are very small and only work on female or feminine wrists which doesn't dictate most of the high end watch market

so yes, a typical person wearing a vintage omega is a 17 year old boy, female who got it at a thrift store or someone who knows little about watches and bought it for the namesake

>>you shouldn't be in the market of buying/selling if you need to get a watch checked out to determine if its a good deal or not.

That there just made me certain you have no idea what you're talking about.

Quit it with your strawman about new vs old omega.

With vintage watches that may or may not be of good resale value you absolutely NEED an expert opinion, especially if it's not in working order. Will the replacement parts and cleaning be worth you getting the watch?

There was a great thread on one of the collectors forums where a guy bought an old IWC for 2 bucks and cleaned the shit out of it and got new parts for it. Cost him around 250 to rebuild the watch. He had his watch maker help him out every step of the way.

I also can't find the bit where I said I was in the selling/buying market at all. But it's simply common sense that applies in this example.

The real sieg used to talk about watches a lot, so this new one trys to follow suit to keep up appearances. Some of the stuff whoever it is, says is completely right, just incredibly harsh, so people pass it off.

Like the majority of what he is saying here isn't too far off the ball, he just reacts to it in a way that degrades his own argument. Which is hopefully part of the plan.

Respect on the Stowa love though.

>>6586840
I'd suggest IWC, as well known as it is, has a smaller market, and thus would be more difficult to sell then something like a Rolex, or even something like a Stowa.

The reasons for why it will be more difficult come down to price, and brand awareness in my mind. They are a well known watch to watch guys, outside that, no one cares.

A Glashutte Original would be even more difficult to sell though.

You've placed yourself into a small market that can A afford the watch, and B want the watch, and B-1 is the fact that a good majority of the people buying watches do it for status, so with IWC not giving them that the pool is smaller than for more well known brands.

You can sell it, I just think It will be more difficult to sell used.

wait wait wait

haha i think we've had all our wires crossed. I wasn't contributing to this thread with the aim of getting help from selling my watch. I bought it less than 4 weeks ago haha wouldn't be selling it right now.

I completely agree with IWC being a smaller market and that's part of the reason, I didn't buy the watch so people can gawk at it with Rolex. The people who would know what IWC would appreciate it without a fuss and for a watch as big as the 7 day is, that's about as understated as it'll get.

so just to clear things up again, I bought this watch with the intention of keeping it for life, till I pass it down anyway.

Muller watches make me immediately dislike the person though. And to me anyone in a Cartier that is brand new, is someone that is trying to either appear as something else, or aspire as something else. Cartier watches are handed down, or graduation gifts.

watchuseek is likely the best online forum for watches.

as far as costs, it depends on the model and model year and if there is any demand for it when you purchase it. I'd say the cheapest you'll ever see an IWC is around 1250USD with that being for some of the older flieger watches. The Portuguese never seems to drop below 3000, and the other lines usually sit at a low of mid to high 2000s with the majority of the watches sitting around 3000-4000.

In the same price bracket: Tretorn, PF Flyers, Converse, Clarks DBs, etc.

[Anonymous No.6587333]

>>6587308
CDBs are $120

Chucks are shit because every pleb has them, PF flyers are chuck knockoffs so even worse, never heard of Tretorn

you're in it to lose it son

that implies you need to know your shit, brand model. when someone is holding out a vintage patek. you shouldn't be like hold on I need to go to my watchmaker, you pull the trigger, you pay cash.

I am a regular on watchuseek in the Hamilton and Seiko sections

I also post in band sections but im not too vocal on there

>>6586884
be skeptical of tryhard

he has been insulting me since day 1, the long story short

tryhard is poor, he has a Seiko 5, he'll sit there and compliment people to get on there good side but he has nothing.

he tries to avoid being an ass because he has nothing to back him up.

here is the watch I wear while working out, strava is on on my bike but its in the back pocket.

I don't like reaching into the jersey pocket while cycling risking dropping my phone.

so I wear a watch and since Im not a poorfag I have BRIFTERS so when I go to shift (mofe brake lever inboard) I glance at my watch to see if im making time.

this watch also does well in a salt water pool that my friend has, I say salt water over and over again because one of you idiots is going to say

>clorine
>watch
lol u idiot sieg

no, no clorine, it is a salt water pool here in southern California where I do most of my in water cardio. I also have a sensitivity to clorine. but I digress

the SALT WATER pool WILL NOT HARM A BAND OR WATCH

however a

CLORINE POOL WILL.

this is a CORVUS REAL BOND NATO
on an
ORIENT BLACK MAKO

a very rare combo that next to nobody does

>post watches you sold

no longer have pictures, I sold MOST of my watches through consighment here in Southern California

I did not put it in a box and ship it, there is WAY TOO MUCH FUCKING RISK FOR THAT IDIOTS

They can easily be copped for $70~
Vans are shit because every mexican swagfag has them. When I said Chucks, I should have specified Purcells.
PF Flyers are better than chucks in every category- I don't see your argument.

Also Superga and adbusters

Never seen hi top JPs in my life, have two pairs of lows though

PF flyers look like chucks though, which is bad

I'm seen the 3714 chrono go for 3500 on Watch forums. I think it's a good items if you stay tuned to those like on watchuseek.

Even put up WTB ads and see if you get anyone wanting to offload. Just be extremely vigilant about who.

Those guys have a Mark XVI Automatic going. If you're travelling you can get that 9.9% GST back as well.

your best bet is to give them an email and ask them if they can mail you once you give them your desired models.

Hurr durr, let me just grab the watch without inspection hurr durr

I would stick to them.

It's just the rubber captoe. Using that argument, all sneaker brands look like another sneaker brand. A plus is that not many people have them compared to the amount of people who have chucks. Also higher quality materials than chucks and better construction.

but sieg, you recently posted a picture of your watch with an oxblood shell cordovan watch

yes, I like nato bands because you can EASILY switch between bands without moving spring pins!!!!!

>you're so full of shit sieg

nope, much like the timex weekender's RAF straps

NATO style bands have the quck change fitment, with addition of a spring bar catch strap

>what the fuck sieg?

a NATO AND A RAF are the same type of strap except a nato has an included bit of material and loop for security reasons

But frankly would just save up for pair of black DBs, clarks or not. A black pair of chukkas is always good to have.

Forgot to say the Portofino Automatic is I believe the cheapest model in the IWC line up.

I'm also pretty sure that price would be negotiable since that's so close to what retail is...

I know, it's autistic as fuck but it's just how I am. Those JPs would look a lot better without the piping all the way around. Should I cop the black low tops?

I've done it many times, and it's paid off every single time. because im not some dumbass kid who thinks brand = win all of the time

it's only one factor.

is a rolex date just worth $100 with a cracked crystal, missing band, fucked movement (damagae due to shoick, and water/rust

you may think so, but there is more damage than there is worth in that watch.

just fucking pay attention. plopping down $600 for an omega seamaster deville and acting like you scored

is not the way to do it.

my hammy moonphase, I bought this vintage watch around the time where it was a fad to wear vintage watches (depicted in WSJ off duty article)
