This thread is about the appreciation of replica watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that are required to make a functioning replica timepiece.

Fuck off and get out of this thread with your negativity you fucking piece of shit, we want to foster a positive atmosphere for all future editions of /wt/. That means no senselessly posting the same 3-5 shitters over and over again, only be polite and post some stunning timepieces.

Looking to buy my first automatic, I've only ever owned digital watches. Pic related is the watches I own. Can't stand the Gshock i got it when i was like 11 and loved it at the time. I love the f84w and its the one i wear all the time, unfortunatley the strap broke so I had to learn the hard way that I don't really like natos. Anyway question is should I buy a seiko 5 SNK809 or one of these Vostok Amphibias:

My wrist is only about just over 6 1/2 inches

The SNK is less autistic but will keep shit time and need setting every other day, the Boctok won't. If you go for the Vostok pay the $5 for them to change a random component (e.g the second hand) because they'll regulate it while it's open.

Also forgot to say that the base Vostok strap is complete dogshit and belongs in the trash so budget for a strap.

Nothing wrong with a premium quality replica.

If it makes you happy then that’s all that matters but I still think spending money on a “premium quality replica” (doesn’t exist) is a dumb decision.

are there any watches with automatic backlights? I could have sworn I've seen gshock ones or something that automatically illuminate when you raise your wrist. I'm looking for something like that.
