c'mon son

I'll post a few I've been digging lately

>>8069552
why do people who know fuck all about watches think omega devilles are a nice or even decent watch?

cool you found an omega at a swap meet for cheap, stop trying to hawk it on watchuseek for $290

>>8069599

>>8069599

>>8069639
fuck you too

can't be bothered taking a pic but this arrived the other day
I've put it on a red NATO

>>8069599
how much should I reasonably pay for one?

>>8069672
why would you want one?

brandishing an old omega is like driving around in a 1992 buick ad telling everyone you drive a vintage luxury car...

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/08/fashion/08iht-acaw-omega-09.html?_r=0

omega deville is like on the same level as a tag heuer

and if you wear omega, tag heuer you might as well be wearing a fucking nixon

>>8069709
I just like the aesthetic of
>>8069552

and I'm not wearing a watch for anyone else, that's silly.

>>8069712
well in that case, me personally....

for a screw back, CLEAN recently serviced 613 winding movement equipped model, with a nice/new band, clean fade free crystal, and scratch free case.

around $80-150
a little more for a clean gold filled model

---
for a quartz model, i would personally pass even if gold filled can't be smelted for value or anything and nobody wants 2014 woman's sized watches marketed towards men in the 60's and 90's who shopped at costco

>>8069516

Oh Lambda... One day you shall be mine

I'm getting a watch for my 21st. I was a simple, white faced watch with black Roman numerals. Something like pic related but a little bigger and maybe with more simple hands. it can be up to £500.
Any suggestions?

>>8070392
man all that ego and edge.

oh look people are discussing watches they like, i kow i'll exploit them like the world fucking owes me something

you all subjects
i am better than you

present thy with watches that fit my stupid list of features that meet my ridiculously low end pricepoint and i shall thank thee IF you meet my impossible budget restrictions, and you guess my wrist measurements and case diameter

do thy job of a sales associate, without monetary compensation

my graditude should be enough compensation becuase i am better than thy subjects with watch knowledge!

Thanks. The bracelet that comes with it is total shit and I swear I bent one of the links while removing it. Plus I think it looks much better with leather.

Feel free to hate on me for my watch

>>8072330
Yeah, The other band made the watch look too clunky. I like the sleek look of the leather band, the shade of brown is great too, it looks like a complete different watch.

That's the back of the watch.

How would you even read the time on that?

should I sell it?
my dad give it to me, how much it cost?

>>8069516
why do people wear thes crappy > 5k watches? Whats the point?

your watch is a bad example of a counterfeit though

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=111318550247

does this look alright or a bit dodgy? love the aesthetic and the bidding prices are reasonable at the moment

>>8073847
would look sweet with a simple monochome fit i reckon. most watches like rolex or omega dont go with minimalist outfits

>>8074480
I agree. It's also nothing like a G-Shock. Watch nerds are the worst. Who cares if it's by a designer label and not some dedicated watch company? It's just an accessory after all.

>>8074489
that's the wrong way to look at it though. think of it as if it was made in China clothes being sold at a designer price tag. the movements in it are probably the same quartz ones as those you'd find selling for $10 at Walmart.

when you pay for a "watch snob" premium product you pay for a product poor together by first works employees for first world wages.

>>8074498
put together* first world*

also the movements are almost entirely in house as opposed to the same Chinese movements put in 30 million other types of watches

>>8074473
pls respond

>>8074512
so? a $2 quartz movement tells time better than 99.9999% of autos. and these are just basically jewlery for men. looks are the only important thing

>>8074537
>looks are the only important thing

For you perhaps, but have you considered that maybe not everyone feels that way?

>>8074552
yes i know they do. i think they are autists though. not many people even wear a watch these days and even less people would be able to tell if was a seiko or a rolex, and even less would give a shit

>>8073847

I don't think you understand aesthetics/are too concerned with name-hype to look at the real beauty of an item.

>>8074557
Seiko (mainline and orient line) is still in house Rolex finishes their movements in house

Seiko 5 riki, 007 and 009 are Malaysian, Korean or china made 7s26 plastic movement holder equipped, plastic day/date pos though

besides eBay, where to look for used/vintage watches?

Posted in another thread, but gonna repost it here.

Copped this today for my birthday. Mondaine Stop2Go. Sexy as fuck.

>>8074852
sick

Why are all watches so huge? I want something more fashionable than my f91w, got recommended Swatch here but they're all big like this.

>>8074936
dude u must be king of the manlets
swatches like the once again are tiny

>>8074852
what movement does mondaine use? are they quartz or automatic? an are they in house?

>>8075006
depends on the model, they make both automatic and quartz.
their automatics use ETA movements.
the stop2go is by necessity quartz and was developed especially for Mondaine but I can't find who actually makes it.

>>8074999
well my wrist is 6 inch so it's not THAT small

>>8075098
you're going to want watches 39mm and smaller, then.
stay away from modern fashion brands and you'll find plenty.

cup our nut

>>8074936
orient blue/black ray. its quite small and overall nice watch

>>8075170
your first dressy watch? why not, if it's on sale for ~100 Eur.

Could never afford IWC so going for similar homage. These have nice movement and feedback. Thinking about it now

>>8069556
I'm considering buying a ulysse nardin replica. Am I full pleb? Also, where do I get that bracelet?

>>8075252
>ulysse nardin
gold and blue seems to hard to match in anything but a dressy environment imo.
If by bracelet you mean a nato/zulu strap, there's lots and lots of these things in all kindsa colorways on ebay and amazon and on dedicated webshops. Maratec is one of the better brands from what I read, but have rather limited colors.

>>8075239
Black face + bond strap looks nice, hope my skx007 will look as good.
One thing that hurts my autism with nato straps and the snk80x by seiko is, that many colorways don't come with matte rings that match the casing.

I'd wear a Hardin rep over a Mondaine ( supposed to sound like mundane which is kinda cute)

Enjoy that acetate "exhibition" lol back lol

>>8076095
It's a brand that isn't relevant
Amazing reviews becuase that's what you write when you get a free watch!

ahahahah

>>8076811
That's a fake tag imthink, face and crystal look off

And bezel looks cheap

Than and f1 is the most counterfeited model they have

But hey, tag neuter is kind of like the bose of watches.

The people who hate on them typically have pateks.

Then the teens parrot what the knowledgable ones say in order to adopt credit

So hate blindly while they have a seiko 5 Malaysian made on their watch with a counterfeit Zulu band...

Bose is over priced sure, but at least the drivers are better than your low end trash

Tag heifer is a meh watch but you have a fucking Montaigne

Waiting for this to come in from Russia. I've been a sucker for moon phases since I was a kid. Was cheap as hell also.

>>8074936
you've obviously never been into a swatch store.
their standard models are all 35-37mm
only in the last couple years have they started brining in 40mm+ sizes.

>>8076133
That's a seadweller.
And the only strap (other than it's SS bracelet) that you can put it on is a 3 stripe NATO

lol

>>8079379
I can see why you might think that! but there were in fact five companies that produced the flieger watch during WWII: Lange, IWC, Stowa, LACO, and Wempe. A watch from any one of these companies in this style can be counted as an original design!

>>8079420
say what you like. but you know the only reason you want a nazi watch is because it looks like an iwc.

>>8079317
Get a car, watches are just an accessory. Being able to drive is so useful.

I love this Breitling.

Whats a good mens watch for a young proffesional within the price range of $1000-5000?

>>8080298
Lots of people hate on Nomos, others like them.

If their aesthetics float your bout they're a good choice. Right above the 5k mark there's Glashutte Originals which are really nice. You could also choose the classic Speedmaster Professional for about $3k if it tickles you. Again on the higher level you're into nice used watches like old Rolex explorers. If you're like me and more interested in cool engineering than original movement technology, Sinn all the way.

Basically you can't go wrong with just about any of those.

>>8080222
looks nice but not worth the money, considering that the watch merely houses an ETA chrono

>>8069525
>overdesigned
Fuck off with your "classy" DW garbage. Navitimer is iconic, the complexity and business is what makes the look. It's not a dress watch anyways.

>>8080363
>not worth the money

Only watch "worth the money" is pretty much some 20$ quartz Casios and 80$ mechanical Orients. The movement in 100,000$ PP Grand Complications propably costs few k's to make if you don't take the development into account.

>>8081580
I have had three watches with a 7s26. One loses 10 seconds a day. The other two gain two seconds a day. That means they're capable of chronometer level accuracy, especially if you get them regulated. The 7s26 is a masterpiece in minimalist industrial design. Deal with it, you fat philistine fuck.

Hey /fa/. I was wanting to get this watch for my bf for his birthday. I'm not 100% sold on it yet because I have this nagging feeling that it looks terrible, but the general idea of the watch fits the aesthetic that he likes.

I know there's something out there along the same lines that will look way better. Any recommendations? Was already planning on spending $155 on it, but I think I can go up to $250 if it's the right watch. I really want to wow him.

>>8081694
Skagens are trash. Poor quality, bad warranty, too thin. That particular one is also ugly.

Good brands in that price range are Orient, Seiko, Citizen, and vintage watches from high end brands on eBay. There are a number of cheap Chinese watches that have automatic movements and look fantastic (see Sea-Gull) but beware the quality control.

>>8081730
I knew it was trash, thanks. Gonna go look those up now.

>>8081730
Is there any other brand that makes Skagen-like watches, but higher quality? I don't care if it's quartz / automatic

>>8069541
Oh, that one is cool. And yet I ain't feeling it that much.

>>8075170
It's ok, more on the formal side. If it's your first watch I'd recommend something else

Pretty good for an automatic that costs well under $100. Mechanical chronometers can lose almost 30 seconds a week an still get certified.

If you don't like it then buy quartz. Even a happy meal quartz watch is vastly more accurate.

strong no. typeface/font for numbers changes from the outer dial to the inside, dial on far right is inverted for some unnecessary reason. hour and minute hands too small. huge 12 on top with no balance from any other numbers. arrows on opposite sides of center and left dial but not the right. it is overall a really inconsistent and busy design in a bad way. the whole face looks like its printed and not machined. really really bad looking watch now that i look at it

its an ok soviet watch, would recommend a black strap of some sort

>>8091986
just spent some time looking up the brand. their own webpage wouldn't load for me, but based on the reviews I have read, they score zero points on the "heritage" scale- I see no evidence that the company has existed for more than a few years. Quality appears to be acceptable if you buy them at the steep discount at which they can be had (a $350 watch permanently at $150 may only be worth $40). One reviewer puts them alongside Invicta and Sturhling, and that seems pretty fair. I will give them design points, though. The example you posted does have some issues as anon pointed out, but it would definitely get a lot of compliments.

If you really love the design, get one on sale. If you value brand history at all (as most watch enthusiasts do), steer clear.

Just took this photo.

It goes alright, I got it as a gift just after my previous watch broke.

>>8092091
I picked this up in a Prague antique shop.

Worked great for around a year until the back fell off and one of the wires inside got bent out of shape.

I took it to three different vintage watch workshops. Due to the age of the watch and the problem of finding the Russian parts the repair would cost more than the value of the watch itself.

Shame because I did really like it. Oh well. Theres plenty of old Russian watches on eBay.

>>8092100
sell it

>>8092123
I do plan on getting it repaired one day.

Though at the moment I cannot justify dropping a couple of hundred on a watch when I currently have a working one.

A donor watch would be like $20. Just swap the movements.

Grandad's got some old watches from the Soviet Union. They seem to be nice, but I can't tell. Will look for pics.

>glorified quartz

>>8092651

I'm 22, not dressing obnoxious, can I get away with this? I like its tackyness

>>8092656
I don't think you understand how spring drive works

>>8092669
"glorified" implies that there is no significant difference between the spring drive and a quartz. but the spring drive is chock full of cool stuff. a regular quartz watch does not have a continuous second hand sweep

>>8092651
>runs entirely from mechanical motion
>regulates time through a quartz oscillator
>less moving parts means less servicing
>doesn't have shitty one-second ticking
Perfect harmony.

>>8092692
It's still electronic, it's still a quartz no one will care about in a few decades (and it's not like people give a shit about this now).

If I bought a Grand Seiko it would be hi-beat.

>>8092666
unless your mixtape is droppin, you shouldn't wear a watch with rocks especially if you're white, just sayin
breitlings are tacky enough w/o the diamond bezel, is it original at least?
also why shaving the hand? looks pretty retarded, just embrace the hair

>>8092713
>implying

If you're too shallow to look past the fact that it has a quartz oscillator purely for regulation over a traditional escapement and yet none of the other features found on a common quartz watch like batteries and motors well then you can't be helped. You're more than welcome to personally prefer an entirely mechanical watch but at least know your shit before you knock others.

>>8090002
Heard that before, it doesn't apply, the second hand is always on the markers and it's accurate so get rekt

is this thread still alive?

i'm looking for a watch very similar to this uniform wares 152 basic style, any recommendations?

just bought this

>>8083225
Good taste starts young.

>>8080222
awesome/10

>>8080926
that is a terrible combination, you just like it because the photo/lighting is really good in the picture.

are silver watches /fa/? what do you wear with them? only formal wear?

>>8079379

>>8096035
silver watch + white dial, more formal than casual

silver watch + dial, more versatile, can be formal but casual too depending on the clothes complimenting it

also it's stainless steel in 99% of "silver" watches. The rest are white gold or titanium etc

>>8096052
*+black dial, more versatile...

>>8096052
>>8096058
cool, thanks!

>>8070460
look pretty tacky ngl

make a serious estimate of how much one would pay for this watch / how much is it worth

>>8097399
try tree fiddy, it's a low end fashion brand plus it's obnoxious as fuck

>>8097399
>>8097416
and this one?

>>8093975
what's wrong with that watch?

>>8097425
why would you want a clothing brand watch in the first place?
i like the latter more, but only if you swap the bracelet to a leather strap

>>8097453
original price is about 300 Euro but I can buy a used one for 30 Euro
never owned an expensive watch

$25, 10 year battery. A beater but tough and wearable with certain fits.

>>8097475
you what? 300 EUR?
i've just seen the first one for 50 EUR somewhere

for 300 EUR you can do better than these

>>8097483
thanks for thumbnail

>>8097490
yeah but do you think I can fool random plebs like myself into thinking I got money by wearing one of these? and which one would be better suited?

>>8097492
lol didn't mean to do that . here you go

>>8097493
you don't get the point
for 300 EUR, you can get a pretty decent watch and you don't even have to pretend
just look around among the entry level Swiss brands for instance

>>8097493
don't try to 'fool' people into thinking you're rich. that's fucked up. just focus on dressing well within your budget, whether that means wearing a second-hand watch or not.

>>8097511
yes if I actually had 300 Euro I would get a really decent original watch (or a Rolex/Hublot/Breitling replica)

>>8097516
Well I've set my goal to trick people into believing that. If you want my 'style' is looking as if my bank account is about to explode to people who see me strolling by in the street and know nothing about me.

>>8097516
why is it fucked up exactly? You sound like an idiot.

>>8097698
you should take a new picture

>>8097698
doesn't look any special, you took it from a bubble gum machine?

>>8097399
copped this one

will be rocking it with plain white T-shirt + necklace + leather wristband

what you think?
should I get another necklace? a more flashy one?

>>8097761
don't want to look flashy. if I wanted that I would buy a rollie

>>8097439
i've heard it's overpriced, uniform wares is shit, etc. etc.
