Damn, premium quality thread.

>>14215655
Post watches fit for honorable men who believe in a worthy cause.

I can’t really explain it but this watch has captivated me more than my Rolex Explorer, Omega MOTM and the SMP300c.
This is the most satisfied I’ve been with a watch since I was a kid.

Don't you wish you had a gf to buy you this bad boy for your birthday /wt/?

Is this good?

>>14215775
Get it if you are enough of a chad, otherwise no

I support thread-splitting Tudorfag.

Also, good morning horology hombres.

Ps.: Giveaway starts in 1 hour in the discord.

>>14215848
Based kol, fuck this general.
What are you giving away?

I WANT A DECENT WATCH UNDER $1000 THAT ISNT A SEIKO OR A TISSOT IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR

>>14215855
Longines and Oris have plenty of decent sub-1000 dollar models, off the top of my head.

>>14215854
This, new old stock, very high quality mechanical wristwatch, packed with a the official /wd/ - Watch Discord™ silk gloves plus a pair of official /wd/ - Watch Discord™ stickers.

>>14215736
Is that supposed to be cream or more like an high visiblity green?

Anyways there aren't enough cream dials.

what are we wearing boys

>>14215876
Fake Omega, shit cotton shirt paired with a shitty fused suit. LOL.

Im after a shitter dive watch that I can wear when I go to site or somewhere where it can potentially get damaged.

Im thinking a SKX or the solar dive as its something that I will wear like a couple of times a month at most. Im leaning towards the solar since I dont know if I can be fucked setting up the skx every time I need to use it.

>>14215875
It’s L U M E

What are our thoughts on G-Shocks? This one with a compass seems like it’d be great for outdoor activities, but I’m open to suggestions

>>14215908
Gshock only work if you have huge wrists. I got a bad sweat rash from the cheap plastic the strap is made from when I wore it when I went away for a weekend.

>>14215876
That’s the fakest Onega I’ve seen on /wt/ and that’s saying. It’s embarrasing.

This cunt has swallowed the Rolex dick so hard it’s cringe-worthy. It’s the only brand he talks about and doesn’t even give any good points other than “it’s a Rolex”.

>>14215954
>Hi everyone and welcome to Bark and Ja...ck

British accents sound like they're having a mini stroke every so many syllables.

This is my second or third watch, first automatic. Very please with it, couldn't find anything else with a design I wanted (black face, nice Roman numerals) in the area I'm in currently

>>14215993
Why is it 4 minutes slow?

>>14216022
It gains/loses about 6 seconds per day from what I've noticed, if you're going based on filename time I did crop it so phone probably renamed the file accordingly.

does the longines le grande classique strike you as feminine?

>>14216043
Yes.

>>14216043
big time

>>14216043
The face is fine but the hands and the band are very feminine

what watch would you pick for a comfy day at home?

You can always tell when the troll posts the OP because the threads are shit.

When you think of James Bond do you think of him as a Rolex Submariner man, or an Omega Seamaster man?

>>14216372
i think men of this calibre wear more original watches, albeit similar in design

>>14216043
Yeah. I can imagine it being 20mm and on my mom's wrist. She likes that style

first of all: who?

and second of all, yes, it's a rolex, you don't need to say anything else.

>>14216372
I think rolex suits him better, obviously.

Omega is a exceptional brand, one I do love, but it' just not quite "there" with rolex.

Yeah, I think of him as a rolex explorer 1 or gmt master man.

Not who you're replying to but I could imagine him sporting an AP royal oak offshore... though ultimately him being a combative agent I would expect something with more functions like a tough diver w/ chronograph

My gf knows I’m into watches, I’d be happy about any watch she gets me because it shows she cares.
Could be the worst quartz shitter, I’d wear it every time I go out with her.

Need some strap advice, fellas:

1. what goes well with a flieger?
2. what goes well with a deck watch other than leather for casual wear? grey/light blue canvas?
3. what are some rubber/silicone straps for a diver that dont look like complete shit?
4. one hole leaves the strap too loose and the watch moves forward on the wrist which is annoying, one hole further and it becomes uncomfortable, wat do? 0.5cm difference, oddly

The best fit I had was on a silicone strap I shortened myself in order for the clasp to be at a good place and the top-bottom ratio to be just right, or a somewhat loose titanium casio where I adjusted the links otherwise as the seller. Are fixed length straps generally hit or miss when it comes to fit?

pic unrelated

>>14216361
glad you appreciated the pic

>>14216661
What if she's poor though? Imagine getting a random $500 fashion chronograph that she got because she thinks it's expensive and flashy.

t. happened to me and I couldn't even exchange it because the store only carried a few shitty fashion brands

>>14216694
What watch was it?

>>14216697
Nvm kek. That sucks

>>14216694
ouch

>>14216694
I got a quartz shitter as a gift. I still have it and wear it from time to time. It was this 44mm minimalist quartz watch. I don't like it but it's the thought that counts

>>14215822
What does that mean?

>>14216702
>>14216714
I just don't know what to do, she spent like a year of her savings on it, should I break up with her?

Nevermind wrong video that's 691, it was 681: https://jaguarswisswatches.com/watches/j681-a/

But you get the general idea...

>>14215860
That thing is a piece of shit. Get lost grandpa.

>>14216749
Im gonna sound like a woman, but it is all your fault. All along the relationship you should try to redpill her and see how she is holding up.
Either you havent done your homework and told her that all fashion brands are garbage, and SWISS MADE too, while we are at it. If you havent been with her for a lot of time, you might be excused, but if you are together for a while she oughta know how you like your coffee, steak, fucking and watches.

I hope you faggots realize that nerding out over wristwatches online is the antithesis of why you have such an interest. You think if you just buy "just one more for xyz use" your collection will be complete or you will somehow be a better "man". You think your status will go up somehow. You think people will recognize you. Your taste and aesthetic will be alluring somehow.

Wrong. Any man that commands the aura you want does not give a fuck what watch he wears. G-shocks, seiko divers etc are usually worn by men with stories and adventurous lives. Owning some ridiculously priced swiss watch is a meme. That comes with a certain lifestyle and standard of living. Even then, true chads don't give a fuck. No vagina's give a single fuck about handwinding or how shit quartz watches are. They might listen to you on your gay little date and sound interested but it literally goes in one ear and out the other. Even other men might admire it for a short time and ask the price, when you tell them they will laugh and go "wow, man! you spend so much!" but we all know you have some empty soulless life and your only hobbie is admiring the craftsmanship of wristwatches online. You have nothing else worth spending your money on.

>>14216760
Have sex.

>>14216770
Everyone knows that, the only important thing about a watch is price.

>>14216754
lmaoooooo

>>14216770
this is valid for people who buy watches because they want status. i like to think there are people itt who just buy watches because they like them.

>>14216770
>Wrong. Any man that commands the aura you want does not give a fuck what watch he wears.
Meanwhile in the real world...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc2G6GaG-4I

I want this watch. It's a tommy and the ref number is 1791340 but i cannot for the life of me find it avaliable anywhere in my country.

It's simple and not very sophisticated but that fits me well enough and i am obsessed (maybe because i can't find it)

>>14216804
The guy is an actor... Do you know those flamboyant pussies in drama class? Yeah, he was like the best one of them. He is just rich, which gets back to what I was saying about the lifestyle supporting to prices. He has shit taste anyways, what a faggot.

>>14215848

What which is this?

>>14216797
Not really, why would they be on internet watch forums if they didn't want status? Sure it's autist status but it's still something, since they're mostly either too poor to have real status IRL, or if they're not, it's a good place to lord over the morons spending their lives on a hobby they can't really afford.

>>14216807
Why not save up to move to a real country first?

>>14216897
Fakes are considered legitimate by anyone who is a true watch enthusiast.

>>14216372
A Seiko man.

>>14216749
I'm really upset over this and I don't know what to do. Help please. If I time the breakup so that it's after Easter, maybe it won't hit her so hard? But she's really nice, most of my exes were bitches.

where can I get the watch crackychan wore?

>>14216940
i think this is it but can't find it for sale

help please i need this for when i get a gf someday i want her to have complete crackychan outfits. I have most of them put together from the photos but i cant find the watch

>>14216926
are you retarded? it was just a misguided gift, get some perspective you delusional faggot

>>14216957
You clearly haven't had a girlfriend yet. You either have to wear it and pretend you like it, or put it in the closet and never take it out, and then she wonders about it and mentions it every now and then.. so you have to explain it over and over again. And she always looks at you as if she's going to cry, and sometimes she does. Eventually she gets resentful enough that it ruins the relationship.

>>14216855

>>14217201
no such thing, everything requires money and you will feel like shit every time you find something you enjoy and realize how money would make it so much better

>>14216989
Be honest with her then and tell her how you truly feel. Depending on the sincerity of your approach and previous experiences she'll either appreciate your honesty and understand your tastes more and will be able to pick more appropriately in the future or will take it badly in which case you then genuinely have a reason to break up.

>>14217269
You understand that it's impossible to explain watch autism to women right? Especially poor women from poor countries, we're talking about someone who dreams of going to a shitty country like Spain, she doesn't really understand the world.

>>14217279
Go watch shopping with her then and when she shows even an inkling of interest lay it on hard.

>>14217282
You're still not getting it. It's like when your kid makes you a Christmas card and you have to put it on the fridge or they cry. You can try to teach them about the color wheel and the golden ratio but...

What Seiko 5 do it be bros?

>>14217279
Where do you live?

Also, imo you should be grateful and appreciate what you got you. Yeah, it is awful, but she spent quite a bit of money trying to make you happy by buying you something relevant to your interests, which I think is really cute and thoughtful. Be happy with the gift, if she comments on you not wearing it, tell her it has sentimental value and you don't want to risk damaging it or something.

>>14217292
If both of you are incapable with dealing with emotions like this then you probably shouldn't be in a relationship to begin with. Like I said, be honest and see where the relationship goes from there. No use dancing around the problem creating more drama unless you actually like that kind of thing.

>>14217297
Ukraine, I was thinking that maybe I could wait until she forgets what brand it was and replace it with a real watch, I wonder if there's a similar looking one from a better company.

>>14217376

I looking for a first proper watch. All of my previous watches are from fashion companies, not watch companies. I'm have medium-large wrist and I'm a young engineering student. Most of my time I wear casual clothes, I sometimes have internships were I have to dress business casual (rarely formally). I don't want anything that looks like my dads watch.

I originally wanted to purchase a stainless-steel Apple Watch with a milanese bracelet. Then I saw the prices: more than a 1000 dollars for a watch that will be out-of-date in one year.

>I'm looking for a automatic, sapphire glass watch that is approximately 42mm large. Milanese bracelets are cool but not necessary. I'd like to spend less than 600 dollars.

Morning, non autistic chads with an opinion.
Have a great weekend.

Imagine buying an open face el primero, what the fuck was Archie thinking?

>>14218253
Wait whut? Did he buy it for his collection or just to flip it? I'm not following his vids recently.
As if i didn't hate zenith enough, now i know that open face el primeros exist.
Haven't seen a single one good looking, modern zenith watch.

>>14218197
Lol, what are you smoking, you retard? There are no good looking crosshair watches today. Get a replica or stp being a pussy.

>>14218253
imagine watching archies videos

>>14218255
He got a tri colour one that is festooned with a god awful open heart dial

>>14218256
true

>>14218264
Jesus, he is pretty much losing it at this point.
>>14218263
Well, he was fun to watch when he just shat on almost every watch. Nobody should take him serious but he was way more interesting than those faggots that never had any straight opinion because they need to sell their boipussy to advertisers.

But now it's just sad to see arch going down and still living his delusion. Or he is doing fine and just playing the victim. Which i believe more, because he buys those expensive shit watches despite being "broke".

>>14218197
>but i also want a modern movement
Vintage Omega movements are fucking great though.

>>14218246
More pics. How's the domed crystal?

Experimental build: put this steel case 70's digitial shitter on a leather strap to see how it would look.

>>14218322
Oddly satisfying.

>>14218316
It's really nice, makes it look super classy

>>14218334
Yeah, I was inspired by old Elektronikas.

Commie watches a lot of times came without straps for some reason so the owners would just put whatever on it.

>>14218322
it would look better with a croc grain leather strap

>>14218322
That unironically looks better than on a bracelet

Fakes are considered fakes. Even the rep community differentiates between gens and reps, and frowns on passing off a replica as the genuine article.

Seiko SKX013, 38mm diver. Automatic.
Costs about 220 bucks and you can get a Seiko bracelet for one for another 30 more.

Does anybody happen to know if you can swap the exhibition caseback on the 43mm Navitimer 1s with the old fahrenheit to celsius converter caseback?

>>14218644
what an ugly ass watch

>>14218575
Pretty good, they know that no one who wears it will ever see the sea up close so they put it in the watch instead.

My friend asked for help picking out a watch, but he was as cheap as possible.
I don't really know anything in the < $100 price range.
Any help?
He wants it to be analog and be decent in the cold.

If I win the lottery I'm going to have Smith make me a one-off watch.

Because of what I do, I rarely get called into meetings. Usually accounts people take care of that stuff and as a designer, I just design whatever I get assigned. But today it was related to graphics guidelines so they brought me into a client call. It's Friday so I was just wearing the casual, playful Timex that I can use different colored straps with.

I've always known that the ticking in the Timex was loud. People can't hear that in normal settings but when there's no other noise, you can hear it from a few feet away. Because I keep it in my bedroom, I have to stop the watch before I sleep at night because it's too loud.

Today was a client call and they were explaining a lot of stuff to us so an account lead, her associate and me on this end were just keeping ourselves quite and listening on the phone. Whenever people would stop talking, you could hear my watch ticking every single second. At one point, the associate even looked at my watch. I really didn't want to intentionally stop my watch at that point and just kept it under the table till the meeting ended.

We had fun Timex... but this is the end for us. I'll always miss the changeable straps. I was planning to buy a casual eco-drive maybe in a few months but now I had to accelerate my replacement process.

You and me both m8.

Can anyone ID the watch in this Vietnam clip?

Looks fine, barát.

>>14219289
Honestly it’s probaly too hard to tell from that footage but the case overall silhouette reminds me of vintage timex divers. I have a few of them, collecting vintage timex has become a great value prop I wish timex still made funky stuff like pic related.

mallwatch thread, get some taste /fa/

Why is this such a slow thread?

Feels really bad man.
Even the 1815 chrono looked slightly out of place on my wrist.
Can we have a moment of silence for all wristlet watch enthusiasts?

How much money do you need for a minimum acceptable /wt/ collection that has a watch for every occasion, and what would be in it?

>>14216807
I've had a hilnigger watch and the quality was abysmal. How about you dont get a fashion watch and get brand that has some real history

F-91w beater
stowa marine 36mm w/ two nice leather straps; Black = work/dress. Honey brown for lazy weekends.

Enjoy

>>14220126
Ignore this I fucked up, I thought the stowa was like 400 euro, its almost 700 actually, sorry

I read it, that's not what I asked.

>>14220148
You are asking the question the wrong way around. It should be "This is my budget, what is the best collection I could buy with it?"

>>14220169
My budget is the minimum possible for an acceptable /wt/ collection. Obviously I'm not giving more than the bare minimum, why would I? Why are you trying to jew me into spending more than I need to?

>>14220075

Why are there two watch threads?

>>14220126
>https://imgur.com/a/NFMXDuK
Is there one for more expensive watches?

>>14220361
Why would there be one? Everything from $10k onwards is good.

What's a good watch box that has drawers for straps and other parts too?

Why do people prefer buying decent looking Rolex watches when GS watches look so much better? Is it because GS is not swiss?

>>14220377
Are you sure about that?

>>14220413
Yeah.

>>14220189
>soimaster

>>14220179
Define acceptable to you. There are so many different tiers of watches how the fuck are we supposed to know what you want without more details.

>>14215655
>Budget
~$2k Americlap
>watch type
I'm pretty open, just not a dress watch or a traditional pilot watch (though I guess I am open to pilot styled chronos)
>do I work a blue collar job
No, but I do work in a pretty casual office
>desired bracelet option
Doesn't matter too much because I'll just buy some other options down the line ti shake it up. Drilled lugs for strap changes would be nice though.
>desired size
40mm or under, big watches are going to age like milk

>>14220411
> GS watches look so much better
In your opinion. The vast majority of people who can afford a Rolex have never heard of Grand Seiko and even those that have prefer Rolex.

>>14220439
I want to have a box with a few watches that I can post online and have everyone nod in agreement, and also not look like a cringy retard when I wear them in public. I want to add watches to the list of hobbies and interests that define my identity to the normies.

>>14220458
If all you care about is looking good to normies go buy a Rolex or two but it sounds like you can only afford cheap shitters.

>>14220466
The only people who wear watches like that in my country are gangsters and politicians (one and the same usually), I just want to be the hobby guy.

>>14220458
Rolex Submariner
Rolex Datejust
Omega Speedmaster

There is the blandest collection that will have all the normies' approval

>14220472
> cheap
> look good to normies
> get online approval from watch fans
pick two and only two. you obviously know nothing about watches if you think otherwise.

Lurk more, read more about watches, develop your own taste. There's so many ways to go about collecting.
BUT if you're just in it for normie approval, buy a Speedmaster and call it a day.

Should i buy this?

>>14220490
Why do you want to buy it?

>>14220491
Because this happened today after i went to the beach and i want a watch that isnt a pos

>>14220483
Then it would be a pretty stupid hobby, you guys aren't getting fleeced like the Warhammer guys are you?

>>14220490
Its alright
Its super fucking mirror polish shiny and dressy

>>14220502
It's only you who cares what normies think about a watch, so no.

>>14220508
Thats pretty much what i want. A daily watch and i can also use as a dress watch. Or take to the gym on sweat on it on get in the pool with it. Worried about this dodgy seller but i guess amazon will protect me

>>14220495
What's that, you mean to tell me there might be down value added to ISO diver watch standards where every single watch is pressure tested at the factory instead of a water rating based on sample testing?

>>14220495

>>14220509
I mean usually you can participate in a hobby without paying thousands, that's why Warhammer has army points for example.

>>14220465

>>14220510
>daily watch and i can also use as a dress watch
You're not James Bond dude, you can't wear a Submariner with black tie. You need two watches for that.
>to the gym
And a third one for this.

>>14220549
I dont actually care about fasion i just like watches for a utilitarian standpoint

>>14220560
Then buy this >>14220225

>>14220435
Name a better chronograph for the price.

>>14220568
Fuck off retard

>>14220549
>You're not James Bond dude, you can't wear a Submariner with black tie. You need two watches for that.
Autism. No one cares.

Does anyone know of a seiko 5 with a screw in crown? I found a forum thread saying that the SNK805J2 should be, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

WHY CANNOT I WEAR A FAKE WATCH AND SAY IT IS EFFAY?

>>14220578
If no one cares why buy a $10k watch in the first place.

>>14220490
>>14220495
>>14220522
Great marketing right there, LMAO.
That same longaynes model was posted in earlier threads. I like the dial but it is way too overpriced for what it is.
>orient
I never seen anybody else complaining about the orient. If this was real i'd assume the retarded user forgot to screw down the crown or the one of the seals was damaged from the factory or from opening the watch.
That ISO diver rating fact was just unasked for and was just advertisement.

In reality even a casio can be used as a diver, way above it's depth rating.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqbPeuoXOWY
An undamaged diving watch, operated within it's depth rating will probably not fail you.
Only when you come closer to its rating limit, maybe then. But good luck actually reaching 200m as a recreational diver. Even 40-50 meters is a whole different skill level for most divers.

>>14220578
This.
>>14220630
Fuck off, stop starting pointless discussions, you sad, lonely cuck.

>>14215712
Well what can I say, F-91w (prolly chinese knockoff ones) is the go to watch for this kind of people

What about the smaller square one?

>>14218932
Meh he's alright. Being a casio-leaning person means that his channel is attracting people with low spending power (kids, third world people, et cetera) so he's unlikely to attract high-monetization ads which leads to low effort vids

Starting to think maybe i should get this instead

Yes. Pathetic poorfags are hilarious

Happy DST /wt/. Time to set about thirty watches.

>>14221081
>not having the automatic DST setter box

I did it bros. Hopefully the seller doesnt fuck me

>>14221584
They already did by selling you that shite.

>>14221588
U mad

Is it worth getting the battery replaced on this? Not a huge watch guy

>>14221584
Enjoy watch hands that look like they have been cut from aluminium cans.

>>14220693
>isnt the movement in that absolutely shit and will break with no warning whatsoever
no you can get an ETA in it

>>14221593
I pity you. Look at the state of those Arabic indices, the hands & the bezel. Plus it's over polished to fuck.

>>14221584
congrats on the purchase anon. thats a nice looking watch. post a pic on wrist when it comes in.

>>14221584
overdesigned

>>14221693
I dont think there is a better watch in my price range of 1000 dollary doos. Only other was oris and i dont like 44mm watches
