A non-Genta alternative to the Royal Oak & Nautilus. What do you guys think of the 222?

>>14151324
I'm a sucker for genta/RO styling to be honest.

>>14151324
The design of the hands is kinda lazy and I don't like the way the indices look like they're made by cutting up leftover hands.

Favorite beer and favorite watch.

>>14151338
Now that you've accustomed yourself to a decent beer, do yourself a favor: get your hands on some Westvleteren 12 and taste it side by side with that Rochefort 10.

>favorite watch
Current: Seiko Tuna SBBN031
Soon: GS sbgv245

>>14151343
I've had Westvleteren XII many times. Got two in the fridge right now. I prefer the Rochefort 10. I've had many much rarer and more expensive beers, but I keep coming back to the Rochefort.

>>14151338
Where's you get the glass?

>>14151351
>trappist
>in the fridge
yikes

>I prefer the Rochefort 10
I thought the Rochefort 10 was the bee's knees until I tasted it side by side with the Westvleren 12.
Now there's no going back.

>>14151351
The Samuel Smith glass I got on ebay.

>>14151356
I have a wine fridge at 12c that I keep most of my beer (upright of course) and wine in. No cellar, sadly. Regarding Rochefort vs Westvleteren, I guess it's just personal preference. I did a blind tasting a few years ago between the two as well as the St. Bernardus Abt. 12. Rochefort 10 came first, Westvleteren XII second, St. Bernardus third. All good beers, but I prefer the Rochefort by a hair.

Yawn. Can we talk about watches instead of pretentious drinks?

>>14151396
you start

>>14151363
What's the volume of the glass? It's on their site but no mention of how big it is. I need a new drinking glass and I've very fond memories of drinking in Samuel Smith's pubs.

>>14151338
Love that beer, anon. Good choice.

>>14151402
Doesn't say on the glass but it's around 33cl. I can go measure it if you really want.

>>14151404
Be my bitch and go measure it.

>>14151409
Maybe if you ask a little nicer.

>>14151404
Cheers mate, that's perfect.

Cherry is the redpilled choice though.

>>14151417
I prefer the non-fruit one.

>>14151324
>>14151329
w2c more of these "chunky but minimalistic" watches? Preferably those that don't cost a fortune.

Hey guys I like beer too

Fug.

How long is it normal to wait for customs handling? My package has been in the customs for 9 fucking days.

>>14151479
Depends on the country.

Haha fuck The Urban Gentry, I hope he loses his channel lmao

>>14151489
anything happen?

>>14151491
He used someone’s content (photographs of GS stuff) and got copyright striked so he can’t post a video for a certain time.

>>14151495
lel

>>14151495
How long do these strikes even take? He was slapped at the start of the year and it’s already March.

>>14151421
Nice is ok but cherry if definitely their best.

My dad gave me his watch recently because he doesn't wear it much any more. It was made in the year 2000 so its not that old really but i still really like it as a sort of shitty heirloom. I haven't had to replace the capacitor yet.

>>14151501
I'm sure someone on here will chime in, but in the past I've seen some content creators I watch mention they get a 60 day ban from any activity on their second breach, and the third strike is the channel being deleted.

I'm not sure if that's a content ID strike or a copyright strike though. He's been done with a copyright strike (which is the more severe one).

>>14151511
maybe it's possible to get those end links fixed they're trashed

>>14151511
Whack it on a Jubilee and give it a little clean up and it would look pretty nice.

>>14151429
Like the Seiko 5 "Nautilus"?

>>14151516
considering it was my dads daily shitter for almost 20 years i think its held up pretty well.

>>14151343
Now that you've both accustomed yourselves to a few decent beers, do yourselves a favor and branch out into some barrel aged Flemish sours, lambics, and other weird, hyper complex beers.

>>14151519
Hey this is pretty good, can't find them for sale anywhere though. I was thinking more along the lines of some obscure brands that make industrial style watches etc, figured someone here might recommend something

>>14151495
>GS owner being a little whiny faggot
I'm not surprised

>>14151535
>branch out into some barrel aged Flemish sours, lambics, and other weird, hyper complex beers.
Yeah, like Leffe :^)

>>14151539
If he'd only mentioned the photographer, things would've been cool.
But he didn't, and to add insult to injury he even slapped his own watermark on it.

>>14151543
Admitting that would just confirm his whole persona is fake. He's a twat.

I do like a good lambic every now and then as well.

>>14151572
No, more north. All of the beer in the pic was ordered online and shipped to me.

Redpill me on the powermatic 80 movement. I want a dress watch for office but I don't intend to wear it on weekends. Having an 80hour power reserve would be ideal. How bad are the plastic parts?

>>14151570
Nothing at all. One of the most innovative brands this days.

222 is so much cooler than the garbage overseas

My friend is having a kid so he's selling his omega seamaster 2017 for a reasonable price. I used an app to check the beat error and it was around +6s per day. 25202/25200. Should I?
The watch is still in a good condition but it has very minor scratches on the bracelet due to wear.

>>14151711
>modern semenmaster
fuck no

>>14151711
depends on if the price is reasonable and if you like the watch

never ever buy a watch just because it is convenient.

>>14151711
Ask him to sell the kid instead. Use the money to buy a sub.

>>14151693

Posting again, I'm thinking of persuing a watchmaking career but I'm unsure of the career progression. I'd like to work at a manufacture and not inside a store. I'd have to graduate from a WOSTEP school in Switzerland or in Glashütte. What do you guys think of watchmakers and this career?

>>14152353
It will be a dead industry within 30 years apart from a select few big name makers.

>>14152376
That's what I'm afraid of but there'd still be watches that would need to be serviced and fixed by then, right?

>>14152384
I'm convinced that one day in the near future, it will be seen as uncool and old-fashioned to wear a watch, Rolex or not, doesn't matter. It will eventually be replaced with smartwatches.

I'd choose something else unless you are super passionate about it.

What's the ugliest watch you've seen from a supposedly prestigious brand?

>>14152402
AP 1159

>>14152407
First thing that came to my mind too.

Hi lads, I'm buying my friend a watch for his birthday tomorrow.
The budget is around 100 euros and I was looking at Flieger or dress watches. It shouldn't be too big.
Can someone help me out here? I'm a complete watch newfag

>>14152428
Forgot to add that the strap would be leather or nylon preferably but metal is fine too

>>14152402

>>14152428
>>14152435
Don't buy your friend a watch. You won't get anything good or worth wearing.

Get him a nice bottle of scotch instead.

>>14152414
Such a shame, the case design on it is great.

>SIHH 2019

>>14152444
I agree. The new movements are good as well. They are going to use them in non-Code watches too. But how can anyone think those dials were a good idea??

>>14152480
Omega NATO.

>>14152441
I don’t like the maxicase either but the maxi-dial is the best. I wonder if they’ll produce a red line maxi-dial.

>>14152497
maxi dial and maxi case suck

makes the watch look like a lego imitation

>>14152587
I disagree.

>>14152598
left<right

>>14152625
Plenty of people out there swapping out the bezels on their LVs for LN bezels. The maxi-case is blocky but the maxi-dial is just right.

I just can't decide

1) Engraved rehaut - worth SLIGHTLY more, something intricate to enjoy looking at

2) Smooth rehaut - cleaner look

>>14152826
Reminder that you're looking at it on a screen and extremely magnified. Plenty of Rolex owners out there don't even realise it's there in real life. It's hard to see from the wrist. It's an overblown issue tbqh. Try zooming out a picture of an Explorer with an engraved rehaut to it's approximate irl size.

>>14152826
Get it without the rehaut.

Alright lads need help with some dress watch suggestions and possibly one diver. Need two or three, at least one brown and one black probably. Looking at around $200-$300 per watch.

37mm diver, too small?

>>14152896
Nah.

>>14152879
read the poorfag imgur album anon

Slow thread.

I'm thinking of going into an AD to try on a seamaster. I can probably only afford a grey market seamaster. Do you think they'll be able to smell the poor on me when I walk in?

Opinions on mesh straps? They're honestly my favourite.

>>14151717

>>14152126
kek this fucking anon

>>14152937
Correct. More money for watches. Sage advice senpai

>>14152898
Neat, strongly considering getting it.

>>14152948
The problem with that rado isn't the diameter, but that there's no lume on the bezel, no screw down crown, and the powermatic 80.

>>14152951
it's also on a leather strap, it's obviously not meant to be a "real" diver

>>14152936
I think they look like shit and old timey but if you like them don't let me stop you

>>14152826
that engraved rehaut is a signature of modern rolexes.. i'd prefer it. looks good on my OP

>>14152933
A noticeable lack of trolls. Maybe tudorfag got fired.

>>14152961
i won't, but thanks for your opinion :)

>>14152951
it doesn't have a screw down crown..?

>>14152959
It's a contradiction is what it is. I really wanted to like it too, it looks great. But those things are just dealbreakers. Despite the price difference I'd much rather get a BB58 instead to be honest.

>>14152966
Nope, so you only get 100m of water resistance (as long as you don't turn the crown underwater, since that would let water in).

>>14152951
>powermatic 80
What's wrong with that? Never heard of any major complaints until now. Don't really care about those other things.
Honestly the main reason I want it is because my family name is Cook and I think it looks really sharp with good features.

Also considering a railmaster though.

>>14152970
it's a bit of a niche for divers, I don't quite get it but I almost bought this one on a whim because of how nice it was, so

>>14152998
A few threads back a watchmaker posted about having a P80 on his bench. It was confirmed that it does have a synthetic escapement, like the Sistem51. BUUUUUT. There's also P80s with a metal escapement and a silicon balance spring, it's the COSC version of the Powermatic 80, but it's also pricier than the regular P80.

The Powermatic 80's synthetic escapement doesn't need a lubrication as it is self-lubricating. It doesn't have a regulator either, as the rate is set at the factory with a laser.

>>14153094
>It doesn't have a regulator either, as the rate is set at the factory with a laser.
So once the rates starts deviating years down the line you're basically boned (assuming a regular service doesn't take it back to its original rate)?

>It doesn't have a regulator either, as the rate is set at the factory with a laser.

>>14153094
why does this matter in a 500 ETA movement?

>>14153094
Forgot to add, the easiest way to tell if you have a metal escapement on or not is by the jewel count. If it's 23, it's using a synthetic escapement. The missing 2 jewels are for the metal pallet fork.

>>14152998
>The escapement is made from “ARCAP”, an alloy of copper, nickel and zinc

You like Huey Lewis and the News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. Yes, it is. In '87, Huey released this; Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

>>14152028

Yes, a Leica will retain it's value much better than a $2600 watch.

But the M10 is like $6k at least if that's what you are looking to get.

>>14152826

The Explorer is supposed to be the epitome of utilitarianism, so it doesn't need that gaudy Rolex rehaut.

I generally like them, depending on the watch. I used to have a mesh strap for a Bauhaus-style watch and it usually felt too dressy, decided to swap to leather.

You can get a solar watch and have it last even longer, you know. Though with an automatic, you don't really gave to service every 10 years, especially if it wasn't that expensive to begin with. Just a buy a new watch lol. A seiko 5 probably isn't worth servicing. Though I'd maybe like to diy it. Do any of you anons service your watches yourselves?

>>14153860
>Digital dress watch

>>14153751
Do they do that for a valuations? That seems more like a servicing request to me. Also, I feel like a service would cost WAY more than $140.

From what I've dug up, it's probably more of a case of some shops only bringing in their certified valuer in on occasion so it sits in a vault till they come and scope it, then you pick it up.

>>14153871

Still looks like a grandpa watch for the most part

Rate muh watch

>>14153888
They do change out genuine parts and swap them with fakes. Your watch wouldn’t be gen as, anymore. Phisted, in the terms of Archibald Chesterfield the III, you are.

>>14153926
>>14153938

>>14153899
The think that really irks me about the Zeitwerk is the two minute digits being at different heights. They need to be flush like in competing brands

>>14153945

>>14153913

>>14153950
Pretty sure Lange engineers did what they could.

>>14153953
The “Fuck you guys, I like it” always gets me. You can really tell he was affected.

>>14153959
Not really because I still haven't replaced it.

I still don't get the overreaction though.

>>14153953
Looks like leather from a sofa

>>14153958
I'm sure they have an explanation why but it doesn't seem that hard to have a ring within a ring. Especially since other watches managed to.

>>14153950
>>14153958
Just by the shape of the smaller minutes disc, it would’ve been impossible, I suppose, to make it flush like your sample. Their outsize dates aren’t flush either but that is hidden by the frame.

>>14153966
A date is definitely easier than an entire digital watch. Here's IWC's Pallweber, it isn't flush either and the display is definitely smaller than the Zeitwerk.

If you round off the hexagonal minutes disc, it would be too big and it'll be far too spaced out from the other minute disc another side effect of making it rounded to make it flush is that would either make the watch even larger or make the display smaller. Lange creating the Zeitwerk is a great engineering feat.

>>14153931
I own two mechanicals so don’t worry, the Swiss get plenty of money from me.

>not having a varied collection of quartz and mechanical

>>14153991
The Pallweber mechanism. They've got the discs rounded but at the cost of having a smaller display and an odd layout. The Zeitwerk is far superior in legibility but I wouldn't mind owning either.

>>14154002
>not having quartz, handwinding, auto, electronic, tuning fork, solar, kinetic, radio, Spring Drive, thermic, quartz regulated balance and an AC wall clock
Do you even collect?

That reply wasn't me...but no i'm not, I'm also not a faggot.

lolno

>>14154189
Brand new in U.K. they’re £3500.

>>14154153
Yep.

I don't mind Teddy Bulbasaur but the cunt always talks about watches from pictures and very rarely has ever handled them.

He's basically Americunt, vanilla Archie.

>beater
>but I'm wearing it almost everywhere
That's what a beater is anon. How large is your wrist if you don't mind me asking? I'm a wristlet and I'm thinking of getting the 013 instead of the 007. The watch fits your wrist perfectly btw.

Got this watch as a 29th birthday gift from my SO. I can’t stop staring at it. As has been said before on this sub about this watch, it’s so elegant and clean, perfect for dressing up or dressing down. Super thin and light on the wrist and I love the 35mm sizing. The Horween cordovan strap that comes with it is pretty decent quality as well.

Trying to trans from wearing on my right to my left. Wish me luck.

What were you thinking

>>14154249
I know you retard. I was highlighting how pointless this post was without a currency.

>>14154250
You’re going to cut your cock off next I assume? Good looking watch.

>>14154250
>Trying to trans
You already look like you enjoy sucking cock, so might as well go trans.

>>14154256
He’s got that Bennahmias talking about Code 11:59 with Hodinkee look going on.

>>14154250
Good luck transitioning, which is your dominant hand?

Fuck swiss watches desu

aww so cute, you are a wristlet and embarassed to show off your 36mm piece of swiss shit xDD the chad jap makes his wrist presense known to everyone within a 9 mile diameter

>>14154250
I did it a couple of years ago and find it much more natural now.

>>14154267
>ceo launches new watch collection
>doesn't wear one of the new watches

it's shite and they know it

>>14154275
For them being Swiss pieces of shit, the nips sure do love to copy them.

>>14154266
>still a Swiss Ronda quartz movement for the Japanese side
Please replace it with something like a Miyota 2035.

>>14154266
Lmao

>>14154263
Right handed but been wearing on my right all my life.
It’s annoying for using a mouse and playing guitar.

>>14154239
i thought i had thin wrists, 18.5cm so i got the 013. Fits perfectly. I took a couple of links out and got it to fit snug, cos it's got some weight to it I hate bracelets that flop. Original bracelet is better than the rubber

>>14154242
And that 35mm still doesn't even fit on your wrist

>>14154288

I think Rolex only started adding metallic borders to its indices in the 80s or something.

Cheapo beater but with very good lume

>>14154363
Dude nice panerai

>>14154189

Used and in very good condition on the grey market perhaps.

>>14154296
I couldn't wear a watch on my dominant hand, it's so much easier having it out of the way when writing and stuff.

>>14153809

Same just happened to me actually.

What is the process of getting a new one and replacing it

>>14154410
I’ve ordered a Panasonic CTL920 rechargeable battery. I’ll attempt to fix it myself or maybe get my watch guy to do it. The original battery has additional metal tabs soldered onto it but apparently you can replace it with a normal one and place the metal tab on top and it works fine.
I’ll be happy when mine charges up properly again.

>>14154424
>The original battery has additional metal tabs soldered onto it
I think they do that for legal reasons. It stops being a rechargeable cell and becomes a watch movement part. Otherwise rechargeable cells fall under some hazardous material classification.

Or something like that.

>>14154483
That’s strange.
I’m tempted to get my watch guy to do it to ensure water resistance.
I also probably selling it soon as I’m having a bit of a purge.

>>14154502
>hurr durr this is the best digital
>nah fuck it I'm selling

>>14154518
It so the best digital... Im planning to go down to two watches and I can’t warrant this one staying. Also I sold one last year for £400...!

The Ghastly Virgin is back, fuckeroonies!

how did you manage to get a watch uglier than a patek?

Who's the king of tool watches? Sinn or Damasko?

>>14154718
Casio

>>14153950
Nice! Does it cost something like 30 k ?

Guys I love this design but is 1400 € a reasonable price for this?
Are there cheaper but similar-looking watches?

>>14151489
he's back now, tried to bush it off as him being at the side of a sick loved one stroking their hand etc
fucking worm

>>14152988
thanks for the heads up, definitely buying one when my pay comes in on Thursday

>>14154730
No that’s not reasonable. At that price range you’re firmly in Nomos territory and they actually have decent movements.

>>14153494
I do like the blue face on the ray/mako but isn't Seiko more reliable?

What you think of these?

>sold all of my shitters to fund an explorer
>miss them so much and still think about them everyday
Fuck, how do I cope with sellers remorse? Also I think I'm just gonna get a new one. I wanted a 114270 originally but it's such a hassle finding a decent one. They cost about the same too.

>>14154772
I'm about to do the same thing, sell my shitters and get an Explorer. Wish me luck

>>14154772
>>14154778
Don't do it. Explorer's are nice for around 3 weeks then are dull as ditch water once the honeymoon period is over.
At least you won't lose money if you sell it. That's what I love about watches.

>>14154767>>14152988

>>14154763
Define reliable. Mine is about +25 a day so it could be a little better but it does have hacking and hand winding.

>>14154961
>+25 a day
Fuck me, that's awful. If I put my SKX crown up at night I can keep it to around 2 sec per day.

>>14155003
Yeah I need to have it regulated.
