What do you think of salmon-coloured dials? Do you consider them special or just a watch industry fad?

>>14143252
the other thread was 10 minutes before this, kill yourself. Sage, and hide.

This Quantieme Perpetual is an automatic, self-winding perpetual calendar watch. Coming in at 8mm thick, it's remarkbly thin, considering it's complications. This is achieved by using the time-tested AP cal. 2120, with an added perpetual calendar module.

stop bumping your spam thread with random bullshit you absolute weirdo

Movement shot.

>>14143252
What reference is that?

you're a loser

>>14143282
Not quite sure, it's a rare piece by AP being it a salmon dial. I can't find the actual reference for the salmon version but a yellow gold QP is ref. 5548.

Do they make fakes of this SARB035? Got someone selling it for $250 to me and I’m a bit suspicious but he says he’s liquidating his collection

i want a mechanical but is the Seiko 5 my only option with a budget of 100ish? is there something better? i dont like the short lugs on the case

They’re releasing a solid gold G-Shock for 70k lmao https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/solid-18-karat-gold-g-shock-pure-gold-g-d5000-9jr

>>14143308
They do make fake Seikos as with any watch, do you know the seller well enough?

>>14143393
Close but not close close. I think I'm just paranoid but $250 is a good deal no?

>>14143319
You can increase your selection if you go up to at least $200

>>14143401
It is a good deal if it's in a good condition. The price has gone up since seiko stopped producing them.

>>14143469
Did they ever make a suitable replacement?

>>14143277
Back when the in-house meme wasn’t so prevalent. Here’s a Patek cal. 28-255 based on the very same JLC cal. 920 ebauche movement.

>>14143489
And AP’s cal. 2120, with their own treatment.

>>14143491
A more similar shot

>>14143480
I don't really keep up with seiko models now but I don't think so. They now use 6r15 for more expensive watches.

>>14143469
Okay that's tempting. Will pounce on it, do you reckon I can flip it easily? It looked new, no noticeable dings.

>>14143489
Redpill me on the in-house meme

>>14143560
It's not as important as some people make it out to be. A 50$ Seiko 5 has an in-house movement, that doesn't say much. Swiss houses back then were big on sharing movements & plans. But that didn't mean they just plop in the movement and call it a day. They all modify them to their liking, finish them up to their own standards, add modules, and etc.. So even if it's not technically in-house designed, it's still completely unique to the brand that used it..Today, things has changed quite drastically with brands reacting to consumers, they now tout in-house movements. But that's just a big selling point, we still have to look at quality, finishing, etc...

Copped this morning. Waiting for it in the mail. Any Panerai owners? How do you like it?

>>14143741
I hope that's a rep.

>>14143741
Nice purchase, did you get a good deal? I can't ever wear Panerais as they're too big for me.

Does anyone have that wrist shot of amphibia in front of baselworld entrance?

>>14143782
No, stop asking dude.

Opinions on F.P. Journe?

>>14143760
I got it pre-owned, no marks for 6,500 CAD. I'm happy with the price. I got big ol bear paws, my first watch was a 57mm Diesel, I don't think the Panerai will be too big on me.

>>14143794
I really want to find that pic, man. ;_;

>>14143758
Why?

>>14143821
They're one of the best without question, possibly the best.

>>14143821
Young brand but extremely high-quality. Excels at excellence, unique identifiable identity.

>>14143741
Yes I have a manual wind titanium Luminor Marina with tobacco dial from the early 2000s. I really like it, movement is nothing special but it’s a simple watch that is more accurate than my Speedmaster and Datejust. My only qualm is it’s 44mm and feels it, but think that Panerais should be big. Next one will probably be a 42 mm Radiomir.

> Young brand
But an old watch maker. What happens to FP when he dies soon?

>>14144036
François is definitely experienced watchmaker. He's just 61 lol, definitely not calling it quits any time soon. But they for sure have people being trained and someone lined up. Contigency plans and all that.

>>14144084
definitely an*

>>14144084
> Contigency plans and all that.
You'd hope so but he's infamous for making a lot of their watches himself.

>>14143821
Very good and appropriate blend between tradition and avant-garde.
Wish he'd do more full dials. I hate offset miniature main dials.

> I need something to throw money at general
Just buy a casio or a seiko if you have to have a piece of jewellery. Nothing wrong with that either, I wear my casio with certain outfits.

What bugs me is that half the people that obsess over a seamaster or a rolex online couldn't even tell you what a clickspring is. It's not a genuine interest for 90% of the people posting about it, it's just something to throw money at.

Someone post that image of the guy calling out the reddit fucks who buy expensive shit in line with the hivemind. Watches, multiple mechanical keyboards, headphones. It's no different from the consumerism the same people make fun of. No different from the 16 year old girls at the malls buying plastic jewellery and polyester clothes every week.

>>14143821

Ugly.

Plebeian taste.

Is there anything I should pay attention to when buying a watch box?

I have 3 watches I use regularly, but I realized that it's a stupid idea to leave them out on a desk by my front door.
