/fa/ - Fashion

I honestly don't know why someone would say the 37mm watch doesn't look fine.

If I don’t buy a diver that’s not a submariner, is that a poor fag cope?

>>17791021
The answer should be obvious.

Is the G-5600E-1 a good affordable G-Shock

Should I get the mechanical version for 490 bucks? It goes for more in their official store but I'm hung up over the fact that I missed a sale price of 340 at the beginning of summer...

>>17791021
bring me that pink bussy

>>17791021
Well, that someone doesn't want to look too feminine.

>>17791030
You have to get the G-5600UE version that wasn't released in the US which makes it less affordable. The old version before the 'U'pdate is lacking.

By that definition, not buying the OG Fifty Fathoms and going for the Rawlecks instead is massive coping.

As long as it isn't a blatant 1:1 copy of an existing design it's fine.

>Are you man enough to wear a small watch?

>>17791188
I suspect watch manufacturers are considering this for two reasons. First, to push a “new” trend that motivates people to make more watch purchases. Second, to attempt to flex on the smart watch market, since they’re generally on the larger size

I think we just have some underage le epic trollerz shitting up the place

Anyway, I want to get the pocket watch repaired, but unfortunately there are some small fractures on the dial and they’ll crumble off if removed. I see South Bend dials pop up on ebay, but I haven’t been able to find this exact style

>>17791283
Looks like marble to me, i'd leave it as it is.

>>17791251
men historically wore much smaller wrist watches. the guys who actually had some testosterone in their blood wore 34mm watches. the gargantuan dinner plates of today have only very recently become popular due to the widespread prevalence of obesity.

>>17791283
Why the fuck would underage trolls want to be in /fa/ watch general?

Cope much, head ass.

>>17791285
If you zoom in real close, you can see the fractures between 8 and 9 o’clock. I’m just afraid it will crumble during a service so I’d prefer to have a replacement ready

I'd lmoa my ass off if all those "sort by lowest price first" vintage 31-34mm Rolexes that nobody wants suddenly skyrocketed in value and desirability due to the recent industry trend towards smaller sizes.

It's going to be called the Fifty-one Fathoms.

So that probably means they're using the Sistem51 automatic movement and probably will have around 100m WR. (51 fathoms = 93 meters).

a popular choice because of its excellent legibility

I really like champagne dials but they seem kind of hard to come across these days, usually it's either silver or yellow gold and those pale silvery-gold dials of the 80s seem to have died out.

Please tell me I'm wrong /wt/, I'm just not looking in the right places and that actually they haven't retroactively been labelled tacky by modern watch enjoyers.

Does owning a Hamilton Khaki Murph considered an Explorer cope? Been wanting an automatic no-date complication watch, but I don't want to play the AD game.

>>17791454
>Does owning a Hamilton Khaki Murph considered an Explorer cope?
Everything is considered a cope for a different watch

>>17791454
>>17791456
you can always argue that you just like the movie, point is you just need to find a settling point where you no longer give a fuck to what autists like us think

>>17791454
>Does owning a Hamilton Khaki Murph considered an Explorer cope?
obviously
>>17791456
not really, just some examples from the top of my head: Nautilus, Day-Date, Daytona, GMT-Master 2, Lange 1, any FP Journe, even some cheaper watches like a Cartier Tank or JLC Reverso

>>17791458
for some reason, I think owning a tudor is more of a cope than the murph

>>17791459
of course, Tudor is a cope brand

>>17791403
I personally wouldn't buy an Oris but it looks pretty nice and it's a nice fit.

>>17791315
I don't think watches under 34mm have literally ever been popular with men? For women they've always existed but in my experience most women that go for luxury watches will still go for the 36mm options. On a typical non-twig non-fatso average height woman 36mm probably looks about like what 40mm looks like on the average man's wrist.

>>17791410
I paid 82% of the list price, what did you aim for?

>>17791462
Thanks, nice to read something positive here. Why no Oris?

>>17791508
You can get the green one for 1450 eur so I didn't want to pay more than 1.5 for the blue one

>>17791499
>I don't think watches under 34mm have literally ever been popular with men?
Not in the last 60 years but men wearing tiny watches were common in the 1960s and before.

>>17791031
marathon watches are supposed to be for coast guard guys doing rescue work iirc so I think a quartz movement is fitting.

I like smaller dial watches they blend better with the bracelet and are more aesthetically pleasing. I hate when there is a big circle on your wrist with a tiny little strap it looks so ugly imo

>>17791403
congratulations I like that watch a lot the pointer date complication and bezel are classy

>>17791514
Yeah but they were all wearing 34mm or 36mm, right? There was never a popular 30mm or 32mm mens watch.

>>17791511
I guess the demand for the other two colors is way less. Wish I could also wear the 40mm, but now with owning the 38mm it is apparent that it would be way too big for me.

>>17791533
I think it just wears larger than a regular 38mm watch, maybe it's the lugs. I really like the dial but am not big on the strap so I won't splurge unless I can find a good deal

>>17791528
Incorrect
https://beckertime.com/blog/mens-watch-sizes-a-timeline/

>>17791528
No, they were wearing shit like 32mm watches. Really tiny shit.

>>17791528

I don't dig credor .. am I a pleb?

>>17791508
I remember seeing ads for Oris being marketed as cheap and accessible Swiss made watches. Their current prices are too high for what you get in my opinion. If you get a good discount it might make more sense but even then I don't find their designs interesting.

>>17791585
Calatrava 5000j is the sexiest watch I've ever seen and if small watches coming back makes them skyrocket in price I'm giving up on my collection and going back to Casio

That's really interesting. It's funny to think back in the 40s and 50s men may have been men lamenting the rise in popularity of 36mm dinner plate watches.

What's a good site for buying vintage Soviet watches?

I’m not sure why people say Tudor is a cope watch while wearing a seiko.. doesn’t make sense

>>17791625
cause most seiko are cheap shitters while tudor is a "couldn't afford a rolex" watch

>>17791626

Still doesn’t make sense. Tudor has a better movement, QC, dial and higher quality parts than a Seiko.. arguably on par or better than the Rolex explorer line for a fraction of the cost.. why is it still a cope? Speaking from an explorer / Op owner looking for a diver to add to the mix

>>17791626
I always found this ironic considering Rolex has borrowed some of their designs from Tudor.

>>17791626
I wish Tudor would make more watches that aren't just Rolexes in different colors to diversify and offer something Rolex doesn't. It'd be great if they offered something like a 36-38mm GMT watch(and also their GMT movement wasn't deliberately a thick piece of shit to avoid cutting into sales of Rolex GMTs.) Maybe a cool compressor case watch. Bring back the Oyster Prince Date Day so there's a steel alternative to the Daydate. Just generally offer nice stuff Rolex doesn't make.

>>17791031
get the milspec one, which is quartz. also see if you can find one that says U.S. Government.

>>17791635
i wish Tudor would kill the 1926 line and relaunch the Prince Oysterdate

>>17791640
This is nice, so simple and elegant.

>>17791640
Get a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date (for example: a ref. 15200) while they're still relatively cheap.

It's tough as nails, chronometer accurate, easy to service, they'll last forever, and is one of those "only watch you'll ever need" tier watches.
One of the anons here has one and it looks good.

>>17791631
Because the only people who buy them are those that can't afford a rolex, whereas seikos are bought by people who don't really care. No one would choose a tudor if they could afford not to.

Keep coping

>>17791657
I would. I like pelagos more than a sub

>>17791631
>why is it still a cope?
see:
>arguably on par or better than the Rolex explorer line for a fraction of the cost..

>>17791657
It’s just weird you are so quick to tell “cope” without actually even reading that I own two Rolexes already and am just looking at getting something different for the diver instead of purchasing another Rolex.

I don’t know, seems like your a minimal pay wagie and are just seething.. can’t really tell

There are too many nice watches.

>>17791601
holy fuck, it's literally perfect

>>17791669
Nope, because your two Rolexes are entry level shit. You clearly cannot afford a Submariner, which is what you obviously want. Ergo, the Tooter is a cope.

>>17791696
Not him but they’re literally my favorite rolexes because of their simplicity jubilee straps and cyclopses look like shit
Submariner is ok
I do like the look of daytona tho

>>17791696

Yeah, wagie seethe confirmed. Here’s your (((you))

>>17791706

Do these threads regularly consist only out of tudor, rolex cope and 'look at my 10$ casio'?

>>17791716
Very occasionally someone will actually post new images of their watches. Sometimes there will even be a discussion of watches on their merits.

But, no, it's mostly just Casios and coping.

>>17791716
Casios are ugly as fuck i dont want to look like a dad or some tradie from the early 2000s

>>17791099
I was just looking at those. The movement on the limited ones is nice but for the money you could get a Reverso

>>17791188

I don’t have huge wrists (7 inches) but I am big generally due to powerlifting. Since I’m a tank I figure I can get pretty gay with it and nobody can say anything

I don't know why people say it's hard to get an Overseas. It's not.

I don't even know why I bought one. I just wanted to see if there was a 5 year waitlist (there's not). There isn't a waitlist at all. They'll just make one for you when you call them. I didn't even get asked for a deposit beforehand. Maybe I'll give it away.

>>17791971
pretty neat. which eco drive did you get, any pictures? I've been looking at the new eco drive 365.

>>17791949
The font just looks like total shit, and the fact that the time is in one font and then the day of the week is in another looks like a cheap $5 quartz watch. The screen should use a dot matrix display to make all the text uniform, and it should have solar and bluetooth at the prices they are charging. They really fucked up.

This exact one, it's being sold on ebay. I used to want a GS but i've recently figured out that i would look ridiculous wearing it considering my poor financial situation, and i'm basically done collecting watches, in fact i'm trying to sell a few of them that i don't wear.

>>17792009
>This exact one,
They're quite rare, especially in such a good condition. Thus it being the grail. There exists an even rarer black dial variant but it doesn't look half as good and they're impossible to find in good condition.

I'm happy for you that your grail is so attainable, so why don't you buy it?

I'm not a huge fan of the fauxtina to be absolutely frank. The tritium tubes are really nice in the middle of the night. The glow is soft but plenty strong to be immediately legible plus you never have to "charge" it. It also adds relief to an otherwise flat dial

I found a very nice tropical rubber strap that is ~90 euros with customs + transport from the UK. Where do EU anons shop for straps? 90 shekels for fucking plastic is a joke

I hate casio naming scheme, what's the difference between DW-5600EG-9V and DW-5600E-1VDF?

>>17792103
That is fucking atrocious

uuuuuhhhhhhh....excuuuuse me?!

>>17792179
that's a big pilot

>>17792174
>DW-5600EG-9V
>DW-5600E-1VDF
They are both DW-5600E. The G and the number 9 are for gold. It's a discontinued model with gold accents. The VDF is just for some vendors mainly in the US, it's the same as the regular DW-5600E-1. A Casio model tells you everything you need to know about the watch. I know what watch it is by the model number but it is like that scene in the Matrix. All you see is numbers and letters, I see the exact watch.

>>17792182
for you

>>17792179
Prestige pricing. If you make it really, really expensive, then people may forget that IWC is a dishonest joke of a brand.

>>17792183
Kek.
Also is tough solar worth it my wise anon.

>>17792103

>>17792145
Because we don't like you.

>>17792189
To me it makes no difference in day to day use, so no. Whether a watch has it or not does not influence my view because there are other things about the watch that make an actual difference in my daily usage.

>>17791998
A manual seiko

>Imagine being into this "hobby" while also being poor.
Why do you even try if you're too poor to even afford a +10k watch, WT?

Why is it that watch size never comes across right in pictures or video? I can watch a youtuber compare wrist shots of a 38mm and 42mm and they seem about the same, but I have 38mm and 42mm divers and they seem way different in person, like the 38mm feels tiny

>>17792214
Perspective distortion is the short answer.

>>17792214
What's your wrist size for 38mm to feel tiny? I'm 7 1/4 and it feels about right

>>17792224
Only 6.5, but I had been wearing 42mm for years when I got my first 38mm, maybe that's why I think it feels small

>>17791998
This.
Please recommend something with those characteristics
>field watch
>chapter ring
>silver dial

Thinking about insuring my Baasedster Perpetual

At this point, San Martin owners have the upper hand on these

>>17792268
When I looked into it to ensure my horde of shitters all the services were pretty similar you just tradeoff premiums for deductibles. Check with your renter's or homeowner's insurance and you can just add it to your policy, it's easier and often cheaper. I decided to avoid the hassle because the chances I get robbed, lose my watch, or my place burns down are very small. Unless my collection gets over $20k I might reconsider at that time, hopefully that never happens.

>>17792268
How does insuring a watch work? Do you normally insure it through your home insurance? My fiance said if I get a real swinging dick watch I have to make sure it has proper insurance, but I'm not sure what the proper insurance really looks like.

>>17792299
My home insurance only covers up to 5000 for watches (but not other jewelry) because they're cucks. I'm trying to find out the same answer.

>>17792263
>quartzfags get what they deserve
...accuracy, reliability, and a sense of enormous wellbeing.

>>17792305
and one tick per second that doesn't line up with the markings lol

>>17791974
Why did they change the design of the 222? The Overseas just doesn't look anywhere as good.

>>17792237

>>17792311
The smoothest watches in the world are powered by quartz. Feels good.

You amateur you should have a flavor flav clock.

>>17792311
Accuracy wise and cost-performance-wise, quartz wins.
Craftsmanship and artisanship-wise, manual/automatic wins.

>>17792311
>this kills the quartzcuck

>>17792311

Is the a cheap manual watch under 300 bucks worth it

>>17792380
That's what you think is good finishing?
lmao
LSHMSFOAIDMT, even

>>17792384
No

>>17792335
not a single person in this thread owns a gs tho

>>17792387
so you have to pay 200k to get a mechanical with better finishing than a 40 years old quartz watch?
lol. lmao even

>>17792395
That's a 18k movement, you poorfag.

nice convo i'll keep switching between my planet ocean and my gshock

>>17792398

is this a mod? why's it look so cool

>>17792418

cause it's a mod

>>17792405
That's a Vacheron Constantin, retard.

Copped this until I can afford my dream milgauss. Thoughts?

>>17792433
>constantin? and he sells cows? watches? well that doesn't make any sen... a nazi cross? sounds cool how much are they? 18k? tell constantin i'd rather buy 6 actual cows for that

>>17792380
what are some more quartz watches with nice finishing?

>>17792445
sleek

>>17792450
Yikes
must be sad to be THAT poor

>>17792465
fp journe made one

>>17791349
Is the second hand on yours misaligned too(or kt could be the dial, or the markers...)? I swear my ocd can't take much more of seeing it not hit the mark perfectly.

>>17791974
Nobullychan! Didn't you give your grape lolex away as well?

>>17792486
Not that anon but I've had both titanium versions of that watch, LCW-M170TD-1AER and LCW-M170TD-7AER. The black one was misaligned so I eventually sold it, rolled the dice on the white one which was spot on

>make watch that doesn't look like garbage
>put a mineral crystal on top of it
seiko did it again

>>17792445
great if the bracelet isn't complete dogshit

>>17792517
maybe 10 more years and seiko will run out of that horrible piece of trash they call a crystal and finally start putting in sapphire like the chinks have been doing for over 5 years now
>800$ for a seiko 5 by then
lol

>>17792445
The milgauss is probably the ugliest watch they make, among a sea of fucking ugly watches

>>17791097
Kek I know what your doing there.
Surprisingly functional I had one of those for about 5 years, thing was borderline indestructible.

>>17791974
Nice, big respect vacheron tranny

You and the fat guy with the Journe should fight

>>17792496
>Nobullychan! Didn't you give your grape lolex away as well?

yes. (please no bully.)

>>17792540
Someone should figure out where they source the material for Hardlex and sabotage it so they are forced to use sapphire.

>inb4 Seiko buys San Martin and just moves production from Malaysia to China

>>17792631
>San Martin starts having shit bracelets and hardlex crystals

what are you lads wearing today

>>17792145
Perhaps two reasons:
Actual manual wind movements are not often bought by mass manufacturers.
The ubiquitous 2824 or equiv seiko clones are autos, and in converting them to handwinds takes extra work. I dunno if anyone does the latter anymore which used to happen with chink fakes.
The former instance seems more common. Everyone can list off the top of their heads the mass auto of the day that's in every cheap swatch group/seiko/microbrand under the sun but can you name the equivalent manual wind?
No. Less made, less bought, more expensive despite being less complex compared with the auto.
That's my guess.

>>17792153
Why do only pathetic poorfags like Rolex?

>>17792658
no rolly?

>>17791454
No, Hamilton is a respected brand, actually the most respected field watches brand. It's a legit brand who was used by the military, in Vietnam and so on, it has watch cred even from people who buy luxury watches.

For the Murph itself, it was featured in films, so the model has a cultural significance by itself.

>>17791454
Explorer is just cope for no AP/VC/PP.

>>17792642
not a shitty AP rep, for sure.

>>17792445
get a good bracelet on there immediately it will look 1000 times better i love seikos but their bracelets are beer can quality

>>17792674
post your cope

There is literally nothing wrong with wearing reps when they're identical to the real thing.

>>17792675
>get a good bracelet
>titanium
bruh...

I hate /wt/ but it's boring without it. Stay shitty my friends.

>>17792672
not even the same hamilton
current hamilton's just a shell of its former self, a reminder of swiss conquest of the once great american watchmaking world
low tier swatch group, not allowed to excel beyond the bounds swatch suits have set for them
they are nothing

>>17792677
even the best clean factory rep time from your (un)AD is going to have one or two visible differences. If you really have to pose go ahead, but for me the links with slave labour and organised crime dont make it worth it

>>17792702
like I give a fuck about slaves or human trafficking

>>17792687
Honestly it's hilarious watching people ITT larping as stereotypical yuppies, you can just chuck the word "charity" in the thread and and at least one anon has to make a point of how they hate charity lmao

>>17792675
what would you get and where would you get it? i'm new to watches

>Swatch + Blancpain

Will you buy it?

>>17792766
Yes

>>17792675
>>17792726
Don't listen to him, you can't find a better fitting aftermarket bracelet, the endlinks won't fit. If anything you could try getting a couple of different straps to change the look, but i think you're fine with the original bracelet.

>>17792766
>Blancpain

Am I supposed to know this brand?

Looks like boomer-tier shit to me. If it won't get hype on TikTok or ethots on my dick I don't care about it.

>>17792766
I would have if I didnt buy another diver recently...

>>17792801
why do people buy divers when they don't dive?

>>17792802
what else is there to buy if you're not in a suit

>>17792802
cus they cool

>>17792111

>>17792807
Never once, in the history of the entire world, has this Seiko model ever been diving.

>>17792802
I'm guessing because you can bang them up and they won't look like shit whereas a banged up dress watch will look like shit.

i saw this exact watch the other day in a charity shop. did you get it from there?

hi /fa/ newfag here
I'm looking for something that will be both a style watch and a fitness tracker as I don't wanna have two separate watches, so basically something that will be with me 24/7 so to speak.
I was thinking on something by Garmin either on the Forerunner line or on the Fenix line since my personal style/aesthetics is something more futuristic (so the Instinct doesn't do it for me) what do y'all think?
