Posted this in last thread but I'll post it again.

Does anyone own or know about this watch? heard good things about it, trying to decide between a Sieko 5, Hamilton Khaki auto and this Boldr. I want a nice watch for preferably as cheap as possible, most I'm willing to spend is 300-500 right now while I'm still in uni.

Sapphire glass, automatic movement, and good looking. I have a 7.5 inch wrist, 38-40mm nothing smaller than that. I'll also do a crystal swap if there's a popular mod for a Sieko or for any other watch in this price range.

>>17907542
>Sieko 5
heres what you want

>>17907539
Even gold is kinda old at this point, Rose Gold on the otherhand...

Just bought a new watch lads

>>17907544
I was looking at that one but it's mineral glass, I know it's like their own hardlex mineral crystal but is it any more durable than average mineral crystal?

>>17907548
nice is that a mako?

>>17907524
Oh no you misunderstood, the movement in the Gentleman is good actually. Actually, are you sure you even want an automatic watch?

>>17907550
Yes

>>17907548
Congrats, my friend!

A family member gave me this old Longine but I have no idea how waterproof it is. I can't find much from the serial numbers on the back. Is there a way I can identify it?

I also got about 10k from the same relative and think I could also buy something dressier than my usual Victorinox with a date, luminous hands and my first automatic. Maybe the Tudor 1926 in 36mm? I like the look of that. The Rolex Explorer also looks nice.

The only watch I ever bought was a f91w, so I'm a bit lost.

>>17907542
I'd rather get a quartz PRX, Hamilton Khaki (with a discount) or a G-Shock. Boldr is a stupid name for a watch brand

>>17907570
I have a prx and a shock already lmao

>>17907563
The Longines is probably splash-resistant. Why do you feel the need to buy a watch after you got 10k? Buy stocks or some gold idk. If I got a vintage Longines from my family no less I wouldn't wear anything else

>>17907542
Not a fan of how it looks.

>>17907547
Rose gold can look nice sometimes too, respect for those who can pull it off

>>17907558
how so?

>>17907572
That's all you really need bro, resist the consooming urge and save up

>>17907579

>>17907589
Whats so grand about it?

>>17907559
What's the point of these posts? Do you even own a grand seiko?

>>17907574
True. I guess I really wasn't expecting anything, said family member had already been amazing to me and my wife, and when they died it was in a very based way. So it feels wrong to wear it.

Good morning sirs!

>>17907589
Very nice.

>>17907563
That Longines is absolutely gorgeous anon. You should be wearing it if it works. So classy but subdued.

>>17907590
When released in the end of the seventies, it was the second most accurate quartz watch, being accurate to 10s/year. This one is about 2s/month late, so not too shabby for a 45 year old watch.

Orient chads... We can't stop winning.

My vintage GQ / Credor collection, a 6020, 5930 (gold), 9943 and 9940. I am on the hunt for a Seiko Superior 9983-7000 but they are very very rare or cost a lot. Last time one showed up on Yahoo Auctions Japan was like five months ago. A 9256-5000 would also be sweet but they are rarer than the 9943 variants.

>>17907585
The moonphase kinda doesn't fit the whole package but it's small enough to not feel like it's intruding. The raised lettering look amazing but I am very confused what this watch is supposed to be. I'd buy it, although it's weird af or maybe because it's weird af.

>>17907589
How thin is that watch? Vintage is always a plus, good choice.

>>17907641
Thanks! It's about 9-10mm, much thicker than the Credors but still a comfortable thin watch.

>store has same sales every past years on casios

Why was the previous thread deleted?

>>17907647
Thank you. Posts like these make me appreciate what I have in life. At the very least, I am not someone who waits months and months for 20% off on 100$ watch. And for making me realize that, I thank you.

Am I the only one who actually likes Orient's logo? I feel like the splash of red in it makes it stand out amongst other brands, which usually just make their logo silver.

Despite several drams of whisky and staying out till the early hours of the morning, I miraculously woke up without a hint of a hangover. I quickly deduced that it must have been my superior drinking skills, evolved over years of "research," that allowed me to conquer the dreaded morning-after headache. Or maybe, just maybe, it was the universe rewarding my responsible choices that night, choosing water intermittently and devouring a greasy pizza before bed. Either way, I felt like a victorious champion, proudly boasting about my hangover-free existence to my less fortunate comrades.


Despite my lack of enthusiasm in meeting with a client on a Sunday, I have planned to meet at a local cafe. Although not the most ideal setting, I hope the casual atmosphere will help ease any tension and create a more relaxed environment for our discussion. I'll approach the meeting with an open mind and strive to find common ground, hoping to establish a better working relationship moving forward.

What are your plans, frens?

>>17907592
You're probably right then... I'm not really attached to things in a sentimental way. Still, it's a watch and not a piece of furniture. You can still wear it from time to time to remind yourself of that person

Questions
-Does resin cause heat rashes?
-Is a face button light superior (5 button) superior to non front having light button goyshocks?
-Why isn't the GW6900 available in my region usually?
-Does a round gshock mog the square for the 5 button reason?
-What is infact the best goyshock module currently in production?
-Is CR2032 based goyshocks based considering they are the largest used battery in non solar models available?

Nice Grand Quartz Seiko anon. Looks really good condition as well.

>>17907636
Damn anon those dials are incredibly based.

tissot prx: quartz or automatic?

CasioChads were, are, and will forever be the KANGZ

>>17907746
Quartz obviously

>>17907746
Quartz, first it's in line with the vintage PRX, the dials are better imo and value for money is also there. You get a fantastic watch, with great size and dial choice for an affordable price.

Automatic gets the Powermatic 80 that is an off the shelf movement with plastic parts, once it breaks you throw the whole movement into the fuck it bucket and put a new one in. You overpay for a basic bitch auto movement.
I don't like the cheap waffle dial on the automatic version as well.

If you have a Tissot shop anywhere, go in and try both, buy the one you think is best for you.

Thoughts on the Nivada Antartic 35?
The strap is dogshit but:
-850 euros
-35mm
-ETA based handwinding
-made in Switzerland
-copy of a 1960s model, historic brand (even tho it's a reboot)

>>17907746
Quartz because that's what the OG PRX was.

>>17907753
Too small, stupid name, questionable looks.

>>17907753
Microshitter with an old name. Skip.

can someone id the exact model?

>>17907753
I swear, these microbrands that purchase the name of bankrupt renown watch companies are like skinwalkers: best kept at a distance.

>>17907769
>I swear, these microbrands that purchase the name of bankrupt renown watch companies are like skinwalkers: best kept at a distance.
Yes but, then again, that's actually how the ALS of today also got started.

>>17907753
Let's see shall we?
Dog shit strap but can be fixed by after market straps/bracelets, besides the black dial/silver indexes, while luminova rest look shit especially with the beige luminova for muh vintage look.
The size is way too small even for a dress watch, the least I'd wear myself is 38mm, but only if it looked right.

If I really were to spend upwards of €850 for a Nivada watch I'd at least consider the Arctic Spider (pic rel) because it actually looks interesting. Even then would I really spend $850 on a brand new one? Fuck no I'd get one for like €200 used from some poor faggot who actually got one for retail.


>>17907769
I agree it's quite sad to see vintage brand names get bought out by faggots looking for a quick buck.

lads, got a scratch on my watch, minor but I know its there. Worth getting it fixed up or do you think its better to keep scratches to tell the story of the watch or some bs?

>>17907788
Scratches telling a story is bullshit cope and they make watches look worse. Out of practicality though just ignore it until it comes time to get your watch serviced and get them to polish up the case. If you polish out every scratch you get you'll be left without a watch.

>>17907788
Any watch you wear with any regularity is going to get some scratches. Just suck it up and deal with it. If it's not some kind of museum piece or potential to be rare and valuable some day it's not worth fussing over.

>>17907795
Cheers anon, any idea what dial color you are going for?

>>17907788
Just buy a new one

>>17907753
New Nivada are made and shipped from China. Idk how they get away with the "Swiss made" label but they're certainly not manufactured there.

>>17907797
blue

>>17907803
They get away with it because of pic rel, probably. It's a Swiss mass manufactured mechanical hand wound movement.

>>17907805
Incredibly based.

>>17907809
>to be Swiss Made, 60% of the value has to be from Swisserland
Not sure what that tells you about the quality and the cost of the rest of the watch desu

>>17907813
I mean, it means it's a cheapo ETA based movement, made by the Swiss. It's as cookie cutter as it can be. It's nowhere close to being worth €850 Nivada ask for, but some retards will but it. The only interesting watch from them, I have seen is the Arctic Spider, but then again I wouldn't pay anywhere close to retail.

I can easily buy a Single or Double Penis Quartz Vintage Seiko that mogs the shit out of those Nivada shitters.

>>17907795
These guys are just coping poorfags. Sad reality is the quartz version is just as much overpriced trash as the automatic one. The movement is even worse and the seconds hand doesn't even hit the markers on most stock photos.
The bracelet is the same scratch magnet. How anyone can prefer the shitty print on a basic-bitch sunburst dial is beyond me but I guess that's a matter of taste.
If you're buying the 40mm quartz 90% of the insides of your watch are going to be plastic just to keep the movement in place.

The only thing the PRX is good for is as Royal Oak cope and you need the waffle dial and automatic movement for that.

>>17907819
cool story bro, still buying the quartz

watches that look like this but don't cost 20000 dollars?

>>17907819
The moral of the story is that if you like the Royal Oak, work hard, save, invest and you can buy it in the future. I'd rather buy a Casio than a cope watch that I'm not passionate about.

actually I'd rather buy a Ninja H2

If you're going to buy a fashion watch at least buy a $100 Diesel or Michael Kors where it can actually double as something that can tell you the time.

If you have to save up for the watch that means you can't afford it and therefore should not buy it.

>Does resin cause heat rashes?
No, but some people might be allergic to it and some people don't clean their watches and get gross rashes.
>Is a face button light superior (5 button) superior to non front having light button goyshocks?
Functionally, yes. Aesthetically, no.
>Why isn't the GW6900 available in my region usually?
Because it's an old model with a high MSRP that only makes sense when you sell a lot of them at a discount. It's also possible that the people in your village know it doesn't display current time in all modes so they don't buy it.
>Does a round gshock mog the square for the 5 button reason?
Functionally, yes. Aesthetically, no.
>What is infact the best goyshock module currently in production?
For squares:
basic LED: 3525
+bluetooth: 3540, 3461
+STN: 3543, 3459
Most advanced:
depth meter: 3445
>Is CR2032 based goyshocks based considering they are the largest used battery in non solar models available?
It's a big battery but some models that use it are very power hungry so it only lasts as long as a normal battery. If longevity is your aim and you're allergic to the sun any basic G-Shock with an LED will be good.
>Is the GD350 based for above reason stated? it's also been in production quite long now and still is
The GD350 is the king of cheap G-Shocks, it's big, it has great functions, and a great display.

I would like to inquire about the strategies and approaches employed by professionals in the field of media production to effectively cope with the challenges and pressures that arise within their industry.

Your insights regarding this matter would be greatly appreciated.

>>17908162
do you know other citizen models you would recommend perhaps?

>>17908150
That's incredibly based, anon. The dial looks absolutely fantastic.

Check AR1130

Is it true that Timex watches are annoyingly loud ticking? I read this multiple times as a complaint compared to a Casio which is silent. Autos are loud also anyway, The Casio is the most silent watch isnt it? I have very sensitive hearing and it would piss me off trying to sleep if i just keep hearing that ticking all night. I heard Swatch is notoriously loud also.

>>17908201
That is the case with them unfortunately.

>>17908190
AR3070

>>17908201
>Autos are loud also anyway
??? That's not a given.

Quartzchads we can't stop winning because our watches are silent

>>17908201
Some people say they hate Timex for that loud ticking, some people like it. Autos aren't a given for being loud. That depends on QC and many different factors.
>>17908213

Why the fuck is Rolex not doing this? Money left on the table.

>>17908239
24 hour subdials like this would be so much more useful if you could set them independently. Maybe in this case you can, I don't know, but often you can't and it's a little confusing why you'd even bother putting it on the watch if you can't.

>>17908246
Doing what? Making giant heavy gaudy awkwardly shaped brick watches?

>>17908248
>independent 24H subdial
So you want a GMT?

>>17908246

>>17908030
It's not fun without him. It's time to quit /wt/ for a while.

>>17908252
>>17908256
I think anon means a Rolex GMT with a white dial.

>>17908253
Yeah, basically. I'm not opposed to watches displaying similar information through different means, it's good for getting different aesthetics and options for keeping track of the time. If you can make a GMT watch more visually appealing and maybe even smaller profile by making the GMT hand a subdial I don't see the issue. It would at very least be more useful than when you can't set it independently and your watch doesn't tell you anything you couldn't intuit by literally just looking outside and seeing if the sun is up or not. It would be like buying a GMT and never ever setting the hand to any other time zone. What would be the point in having a GMT?

Watches are so beautiful bros... I wish I could buy all the beautiful watches there... But I'm happy I can at least look at the pictures and marvel at the sheer magnificence of man's creations. Not even most beautiful natural landscapes inspire such awe in me as architecture and watches and other works of art. Because this beauty has intention to serve man

>>17908246
They probably don't want to cheapen the meteorite GMT.

Why would they need to do that if they have legions of retards buying the same watches they've been making since forever?

>>17908267
>>17908272
A wrist computer... Even more advanced and ingenious tool. It does look aesthetically pleasing, dare I say truly beautiful... in it's more minimalistic variations at least

>>17908270
I heard Theo of Theo & Harris say he thinks the next step Rolex will take with the GMT is to make the bezel inserts sapphire. Is there any logic to this?

>>17908049
Hey, my friend. Yes I've seen, and I even made a sad pepe with it. You're right, it fits right in my ballpark. Maybe someday, with deeper pockets, I'll pick one for myself. Thanks for thinking about me.

>>17908272
your days are counted...

>>17908275
When I am ready to get a REAL wrist computer I'll get a Navitimer.

>>17908266
I guess, but personally I think the meteorite and white dial have different appeals.

>>17908276
They should do a one piece sapphire glass over the dial and the bezel.

>>17908277
kek that's a nice pepe.

>>17908280
It was a real wrist computer, but still is a beautiful watch. I prefer versions with stick markers. There are many "cope" versions of this. I would get them first just to make the wait less tedious

>>17908265
arrogant nonsense.
nature's beauty of course dwarfs any works of man, precisely because it exists outside of us.

a watch without a man to read it is meaningless, while nature simply is.

>>17908266
It already looks cheap to begin with compared to this, meteorite dial a shit
>>17908270

>>17908277
I feel a bit bad to even have to ask, but i remember you mentioning you do some humanitarian work, so could i ask you for a small donation for a good cause? I can explain more if you'd be interested.

I just bought this watch after being watchless for a couple years
But it's too cold now and I am annoyed at taking out my phone to check the time and then forgetting the tiem again and taking it out once more
So i bought this

>>17908297
Without man there is no one to appreciate its beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In fact, man's ability to appreciate beauty is in itself a miracle far greater than the apparent beauty he observes

>>17908289
Is there a wait on Navitimers?

>>17908306
Definitely not a bad choice for a robust timekeeping tool. I'd recommend the ones that can also track how much you jog and stuff so you can also avoid ever thinking about getting smartwatches. IF you are cardio inclined.

>>17908309
Yeah, a wait to save $8k for a watch. Unless anon decides to go vintage in which case me might as well save $8k for repairs and service

How the fuck is Rolex able to mark up used watches all over the world? How do they have such influence?

>>17908313
I'm quite averse to bluetooth app cancer functions, they are a blight on humanity, and "smart"watches are the epitome of such degeneration.
I don't need any company to collect my data to know how fast and much and far I am going and where and how.

for me, it's the SKMEI S-shock watch

>>17908331

Can you really get a Rolex for that cheap? The superior model and dial color no less?

>>17908344
$6000 for that specific watch shipped on Chrono24.

>>17908344
The black Explorer II you can get for $5k.

>>17908348
>>17908351
I'm stupid, anon was referring to Tudor. $5k is a bit much for me, but in this market it's a steal

Rolex is way too thick compared to a santos

Found this cheap quartz watch it a lot of watches I bought on eBay for parts and repair. it works flawlessly and I use it for work outside thing is, it really grew on me. Is there any brand with a style like that? Or is it a homage of a watch indoor know?
I really want a quality version of this watch. (I already checked beefier as people suggested.ä)

>>17908353
>in this market it's a steal
Used watch prices are in freefall since they were artificially inflated until early last year. Prices are almost back to where they should be naturally.

>>17908361
indoor = i dont
beefier = Breguet

fucking auto correct

In the UK for a family trip, checked in the hotel and changed then went down to the concierge to ask about best place to exchange currency, he told me what I needed then pointed to my Sub date and said I better leave it in the room's safe or if I must wear it I should keep it hidden under my sleeve. Was shocked to hear it and said I'm staying around Oxford st and Mayfair where it's crowded and supposed to be safe but he said violent thefts happened in the nicest places and that gangs have spotters who see an expensive watch then call the others to come and swarm the wearer.

I've always traveled with nice stuff and never feared for my safety, and taking my Rolex watches around the world was a part of the experience. This is sad. Just sad

>>17908378
Oh I didn't think you were referring to the 16570. Only the old shitty bracelet models with hollow end links even touch 6k on C24. Decent 16570 is ~7k

>>17908359
Very well.

>>17908379
Keep moving the goal post bro, you will get there eventually...

What is this sort of design called where it raises up towards the middle? Is it just this watch that has it or others from this brand as well?

You gotta love this.

My Great-grandmother's Omega.

>>17908384
For such an expensive watch the panel lines shouldn't be this bad, it looks more manufactured than handmade.

>>17908414
Aside from the bezel, those qualities are so universal that I'd be hard pressed to associate them with the DJ specifically. In the first place I prefer the roman dial datejusts.

>>17908423
Don’t let Omegadrunk see you say that.

>>17908428
I think they don't even make quartz watches with small enough movements to fit those.
You know the caliber used in this one?

>really want a Spring Drive
>can see springbars through the lugs
Why is the finish so shit on a 10k watch? You can send RSC a 30 year old DJ, pay $700 and it would come back brand new without a single sliver of might coming through the gaps in the lugs.

>>17908433
I think they're both cal.480.

You probably couldn't make quartz watches that small, since the battery is bigger than the watch itself.

>>17908440
People will sometimes get stuck on the smallest, least important details.

>>17908445
I mean I wouldn't mind if pic related is a $500 watch. In fact I'd buy it ASAP, however the price they are asking for something that is put together so half-assedly is insane.

>>17908445
If you expect someone to pay $10k for a watch you better goddamn well make it the most perfect watch it can be. There's no excuse for such loose fitting on a watch at this price point. You could actually save money buying a datejust or OP, have a really nice fit and finish watch and possibly even gain some value in its secondary market price rather than immediately losing half the value on a Seiko. You practically have to have hookers and blow delivered to your house by the dealer to make that proposition worth it. You almost need additional compensation to make it make sense. The awful finish is just spitting on the whole horseshit cake.

>>17908455
But it's not 10k.

>>17908440
Springdrive Snowflake GMT MSRP is only $6500. In the used market you can even get this watch for $2k in Chrono24. So its no where near as overpriced as a Rolex, since the minimum you'd pay for a Rolex is $10k.

>>17908440
It's called clearances
t. engineer

>>17908463
Funfact a brand new Rolex will actually squeak, until you wear it enough. There's actually a broken in period with Rolexes, a few months if you wear it daily but on average it takes 1-2 years to break in since people only wear it on occasion.

>>17908307
nature doesn't require or notice man's regard for its beauty, whereas all we do is subservient to nature's law.

all of our study is. devoted to simply catologing all that exists outside of us, and all of our control amounts to reduction, nothing is added at all.

>>17908464
Oh, that's actually a tell vs fakes.

Fakes = band movement is tight and not free/smooth until broken in. No squeak.

Real = band squeaks but can move freely and smooth.

>>17908476
what time is it?

>>17908460
It's close enough. Even if it's $8k it just doesn't make any sense. Grand Seiko's pricing in general is completely fucking delusional and out of whack. Look at this thing - yeah, it looks decent and has a really high beat rate for an automatic watch, but FORTY THREE THOUSAND FUCKING DOLLARS? And you don't even get a fucking bracelet. You could save $10k or more just buying a Rolex Daydate, you get a super recognizable watch with one of the best bracelets in the game, and if for some reason you decided to sell it in 5 or 10 or maybe 20 years you can realistically get almost exactly what you paid for it back. What on earth do you have to be smoking to buy a Seiko instead?

>>17908482

This is not the place to discuss such matters. You believe what you want to believe.
Since the dawn of mankind all we do is try to transcend nature's law. Not in the least by trying to lessen the suffering caused by nature in many cases. The Universe in this form has existed for 13 billion years yet civilization has existed for less than 10 thousand years. And yet man already looks into the fabric of reality and controls forces that can warp spacetime itself. Your self deprecation is indicative of a theistic worldview. My view is that man is the measure of all things. I appreciate nature's beauty as a template for man's improvement of it. A sunset is made infinitely more beautiful by reflecting in a skyscraper if you wish. Farewell
