Its called a tachymeter. Its used as a method to calculate speed or rates of production. Its also used for divers to calculate how much oxygen they have left.

It used to be what made these watches luxury, having a chronometer movement meant they were super accurate and a tachymeter allowed people to accurately judge speed and distance traveled etc.

Swiss watches became so valued as they were the first chronometers and were used by train conductors to ensure efficiency and make sure trains didn't crash and were not on the same rail. Accurate time keeping and understanding of the relative speeds of things was as important then as it is now, only we've replaced good watches with computers.

>>9824830

You're mixing things up. When divers use a watch they use one with a rotating bezel to help keep track of oxygen. Chronographs typically either aren't water resistant when using the pushers underwater or the resistance rating is significantly reduced when using the pushers underwater. Also chronometers are watches that are certified to be much more accurate than other watches. Chronographs are stopwatches.

White is dressier but it's not necessarily a super strict rule. Diver, dress watch, sporty chronograph is a safe combination that'll cover anything. You can wear a diver with almost anything, especially if you swap it between a metal bracelet, cloth straps, and maybe rubber straps depending on what you're wearing. I wouldn't wear most divers with really formal clothes though, that's what dress watches are for and you're not James Bond even if you wear your fucking submariner with your tux. Gold looks best on more tan/dark skin tones and it's sort of out of fashion, but I personally like it and I rock my gold watch all the time.

watches branded for fashion designers are always just cheap quartz. if you're OK with wearing cheap quartz (which is totally fine. autists like us might call you a pleb but otherwise its fine) then don't front, just get a Timex, Casio, Lorus etc. the fashion watches are usually shittier quality for more money.

anyhow, looks-wise, that one is not to my personal taste. color of the dial doesn't go with the case, IMO, and I personally dislike the look of Roman Numerals.

Hopefully someone else can answer this. I'm interested to hear what people have to say about Skagen as well. It's not a brand I know anything about so I can't help you. It is a brand I keep hearing about, though. If it's 75, then it's within the range that even if it turns out to be shit, then it doesn't matter all that much. However, I think if you're looking at function over form (ie, quality over style), then you could probably do better.

>it's within the range that even if it turns out to be shit, then it doesn't matter all that much
Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what I was thinking about this. Very tempted to just go for it as my current watch is wicked broken now.

Main reason I asked though is that I saw a bunch of people online complain about them breaking. Thing is, most of those complaints are from a few years back, and some other people have said that's not a problem any more. Also a watch this price seems like the kinda thing you'd only bother talking about if you absolutely hate it and want to complain, if you get me.

Mostly just want some more up to date opinions, basically.

From what i've heard, it's basically a throw away watch. Eventually the band is gonna break and you won't be able to fix it yourself, and shipping it to Skagen and letting them do it will cost you half what you paid for it. But it if you think it's worth it.

tourbillons are typically associated with high-end, expensive watches. I'm not either of the people you're responding to, but I would think the entire watch look/style leads them to associate it with the fedora-wearing gentlemen, not the tourbillon alone.

If you're concerned about that association i n people's minds, then definitely don't get that particular watch

because it's easier to see it than the smaller second hand? when you're checking your watch you literally never need to check the seconds, and when you do you do so with the chronograph, and you can even divide every second into five bits, which you would never be able to do on the smaller dial.

I disagree, at first I also found it a bit unnerving, but I've learned to appreciate it. I think it works well visually, and I've really learned to enjoy the moments where people are like "hey dude your watch isn't working" and I get to explain them why they might think so, and then we all have a little chuckle and everything is easy.

Just ignore this poster. It's a good looking watch, and it's really hard to find automatic watches that don't look like something out of a golf magazine. It's just got a very niche bad rep to it.
