OP you're ruining the correct watch threads. "WATCHES: POST EM HERE YOU DUMB FUCKS" are obviously superior. When this thread 404 you better fucking not make another cancer watch thread, or I swear I will fucking end you.

most of the watches people post and wear here are pretty cheap tbh

and i don't see the point in flaunting your wealth through personal accessories. it's a nouveau riche mistake. why not buy a nice house instead, or take a lot of vacations with your family, or go out to eat in nice restaurants

i've had bar tabs that cost more than most of the watches posted in watch generals

>>9835280
I never implied a decent watch has to be extremely expensive. Even a $200 watch is something some people cant afford, and on top of that it was a bait reply

Komono? Never heard of the brand its dirt cheap tho

>SKX007 on oyster
not my photo, but I have this watch/bracelet combo

>>9835314
Meme watch, just like DW.
Dont cop

>>9835314
>90-100 bucks for a quartz fashion watch
>dirt cheap
Clearly you and I have different ideas of what that phrase means.

I love the Rolex Submariner look but Im a poor mofocker so I bought an Invicta Pro Diver a few weeks ago
Great watch for its price tbh

>>9835179
>>9835187
I believe what he was trying to say, in an autistic way, is that it's not a watch general thread if it's for Seiko 5's. It can be one or the other, but not both.

should I buy this cheap shitty watch for when I go out drinking and stuff?
isnt it pretty much the same as any shitty quartz being sold for as much as 150 bucks with some clothing designers branding?

>>9835352

Why not spend like $20-$30 on a Casio or Timex that will have some quality and reliability to it instead of some unknown piece of shit that will probably break in a month?

Got this from father but hes a manlet so I need to buy some extra links before it fits my hand. Thinking of possibly just getting a different strap?

I-I kind of like how this looks...

>>9835314
If thats the same company as Komono sunglasses then its a piece of shit.

>>9835352
Yeah why not.

>>9835337

if that's a moon phase than yes
if its a day night then no

>>9836693
They are nice watches but seeing them out of context in every watch thread is a little boring. not shitting on you but have you ever though of maybe taking a few "action shots"

If i wanted to see a rolex sitting in a boring display case I'd look on google and probably see some better-composed pictures. I'd kinda find it interesting to see how they fit into your look.

>>9836436
If you plan on buying 2, you should have done your own research, cunt

>>9836995
thanks

>>9835319
Looks much better on oyster tbh, good choice.

Might get this

Pros and cons?

I don't really care for the lack of day wheel, in my honest opinion, the day wheel ruins plenty of watches. Not all, but plenty.

>>9835366
Might be difficult tracking down extra links, a different bracelet or strap might be a good idea. You can more than likely find a dualtone jubilee bracelet pretty easily.

>>9836713
If you do cop, learn what each of the complications do. A watch like that can be a p good conversation starter.

Guys help me , I'm tied between getting a Hamilton Daydate or a seiko SARB, which one has the best build quality and the best movement ?

>>9836248
no

>>9835319
>other people are posting my photos on my favorite chinese cartoon forum
is this what being internet famous feels like?

Had my Apple Watch fitting yesterday, it really raised my expectations. The machining and action of the digital crown was flawless. Apple doesn't usually polish their products and goes with a brushed aluminum finish, but this they obviously polished up. The sensor acts as a little stand, framing it on your wrist. The 42mm model wasn't nearly as bulky as I thought from the photos, the size seems to be both usable and sleek.

>>9837055
the green crystal with the blue dial and orange hand and accents is too loud for me. get the black or white dial milgauss.

>>9837122
Does the oyster bracelet improves it in anyway? I have it on the standard jubilee

>>9837148
The standard jubilee is a folded-link lightweight rattly armhair-pulling cheap piece of shit. The super oyster has all solid links and endlinks and it feels much nicer. It also matches the brushed finish of the case and in my opinion the oyster style matches the watch much better than the outdated old-man jubilee style of the stock bracelet. The quality of the aftermarket bracelet is much more befitting of the quality of the watch itself.

>>9837124

I'd consider it if the gold one wasn't outrageously expensive.

>>9837158
In fact what made me keep the jubilee is that it looks like a simple, old-man style watch, that is not trying too hard.

Ill give it a try tho and see how it goes.

Thanks anon.

>>9837184
It's a weird dressy style of bracelet to have on a tool diver which is unapologetically ugly with the big inelegant hands covered in lume and the maxi dial. An oyster bracelet seems a lot more fitting since that's pretty much the simplest and sturdiest bracelet style there is.

$700

hmm

can anyone identify this watch?

>>9836600
They're not even giving a watch away, they're giving people the chance to be the first to buy one

>>9837086
Go with the Hamilton, always choose the Swiss over the Japanese.

is a 42mm case too big for my 6.5" wrists?

Pros: people know how much rolexes are worth
They're pretty solid and reliable
Cons: they're watches for the middle class and basically everyone has one, they're cheap and mass manufactured
people will assume that they're fake if you don't dress nicely
you come off as a complete douchebag
you attract gold diggers
you attract muggers
they're kinda ugly

>>9838598
>basically everyone has one, they're cheap and mass manufactured
Yeah, okay.

>>9838073
Nice, if it was used, consider servicing it since its an automatic movement, and you don't know the state of the seal.

>>9838206

>Cons: they're watches for the middle class and basically everyone has one, they're cheap and mass manufactured

Opinion Disqualified. Rolexes are famous for their craftsmanship firstly and mainly. You can talk shit about their designs, their bussines practices and everything else, but attention to detail is flawless.

Opinions?

I know the strap looks like shit and I know that it's quartz.

>>9836436
Depends on the rolex.
Can't go wrong with a two tone datejust.
Pros- everyone knows what it is, no non sense conversation explaining the brand. Looks great. Can work with almost any outfit. Will hold up over time.
Cons - people think your smug, a millionaire or, it's fake. Replacing parts decreases value. Lots of old dudes have them.

>>9838844
>cant go wrong with a two tone datejust
Ok gramps cool it

>>9838620
>1 million sold per year

I said that they were solid watches.
I'm not questioning their quality or watchmaking history.

What do you guys think of this Raketa? Does anyone have experience with Commie watches?

That's too bad. I wanted to have a little Biblical exegesis session on a Cambodian landmine injury victim discussion board.

>>9838909

I really like moon phase watches so I think it's pretty cool.

I had a Vostok but it broke within a month, I got another one for free but some parts seem finicky with this one too. That said, it of course depends on the era it was made and the model itself. From what I've heard <1980's would be best because bankrupcy of the USSR and capitalistic influences (cheap parts, cheap workers) hadn't ravaged the watch factories yet.

>>9839255

Raketa is pretty cool though so go for it anyway

Pros of Buying a Rolex:
- Unless abused, you can nearly always make money flipping them
- Timeless look
- It's a Rolex, even people who don't know watches will be impressed

Cons:
- if you don't look like you can afford it, people will automatically assume it's fake and they will deal with you as if you're the kind of person who wears a fake watch
- if you do look like you can afford it, people who appreciate watches will think of you as the kind of person who only went for Rolex because it is the 'standard issue' status symbol watch.

The exception to all of this is vintage Rolex. (Important to note, 'vintage Rolex' doesn't just mean 'old Rolex'. Vintage Rolexes are examples of important pieces from their history. An Air King from the early 80's that you got for 750.- is just an old Rolex.)

>>9838986
That's what I think, too.
I'd be buying it as a "explorer I in leather" homage

It's 36mm and 7mm thick

What I fear is that it might look/feel cheaply made. I mean, the thing costs 32USD in amazon.

Wondering if anybody out there makes Orthodox iconographic watches.

>>9840175

I like Tanks better but Santos are pretty nice too.

>>9840225
I love Cartier's classic designs but they are all so small. I have a watch like >>9840175 in two tone quartz and it's only 29mm across. (That was the men's size.)

It slips under a cuff pretty nicely, but with bare arms it looks like a women's watch.

dad gave me his old watch, i know nothing about watches. how is it?

>>9839771
no water resistance

good luck

>>9840904
Shit that's actually pretty nice. I don't thinks it's very old either, that exact model is still in production. It's a good midrange watch, wear it and take care of it and maybe get it serviced if he hasn't had it serviced for a few years.

>>9839771
I bought it from watchunique in the Netherlands. Shipping to the US was cheap so I assume it can't be very expensive for you. It was also the cheapest option I found but that's also because I don't pay VAT. The watch has a reputation for QC issues that might show up very soon after buying it so I would buy new from a real store.

>>9837457
don't you dare spend 700 for that. it'll be one of the biggest regrets of your life

>>9838206
I'm not sure what to think about it. on the one hand, it's an invicta, and that's bad. It's also huge; that's bad. but it looks awesome and that's good. it's the best looking invicta I've seen; that's good.

Once you actually stop being a faggot and deserve to own a watch, don't buy one until you find one you really like.

I know 40-year-olds who look tryhard, to be honest. It's still floating around the white collar world as a sign of success, but the advent of cell phones has made it stick out a bit more than usual.

>Hey Anon
Yeah?
>What time is it?
It is...
I don't know...

>>9841509
Well I can actually read it. It'd be my first entry-level luxury watch that wasn't passed down to me.

>>9841504

Don't cop. $1k is much better spent elsewhere m80

>>9841504

>>9841512

Also entry level luxury is a bit of an oxymoron, especially if you consider entry level to be $1k.

>>9841525

What's your budget mate? Don't get a Panerai as your "first luxury watch".

>>9841518
>>9841523
I don't know you but if I was in your situation and I am 18 I'd rather get an Omega speedmaster professional or a even same some money and get a Tudor sports watch... also Panerai watches don't strike me as very good looking they don't seem to have that flashyness effect to me

>>9841537
Save*

>>9841532
Well, I wouldn't like to spend more than 2 grand. I just want something to be a nice start to a collection, that I can wear with blazers and dressy clothes for daily use. I already have an Omega that was handed down, but don't particularly like the look.

>>9841545
To add, price is flexible. Within reason, I can probably go up to $7k if I really wanted to, but nothing caught my eye that isn't super flashy or I'd be too overly worried to leave the house with.

>>9841545
Get a Tag Heuer my man

>>9841532
Panerai makes a fine first nice watch though.

>>9841537
Panerai is much more expensive than a speedmaster or Tudor. They are definitely flashy, but not too much so.

>>9841558
terrible advice, tag is shit

>>9841583

I just don't see the appeal. Unless you get an 8 day or something that's not bare bones Panerai, there's no point IMO.

They're just too big. If you've got the money for a Panerai I'd look into a 2nd hand JLC.

>>9841593

>>9841777
Another one for me, or a SARX015, or a Steinhart Ocean 1 GMT. I'm trying to decide which of those I want.

Less likely contenders I'm also considering are a plain black O1, Steinhart OVM, Squale 20 Atmos, maybe something cool and vintage like an accutron spaceview or a Seiko 7A38 or 6139.

>>9841805

Thanks

>>9841796
I've already got a shitty orient diver, so the Steinhart is a no go, I'm thinking a tissot visodste, the thickness is a little off putting though, I'm a fan of mid end seikos but I think I need to add a swuss watch to the collection, even if it's an eta movement

>>9841811
I've read that chart more times then you have had hot dinners

>>9841831
>has a Seiko and a Seagull 1963
>says he's not looking to buy dogshit
I've got news for you bro

>>9841842
You want another white dial dress watch? Don't get that fat pig, get a Le Locle with a sweet textured dial instead.

>>9841837
Just take it to your local watch repair and battery change guy and buy a new strap

>>9841849
>Seiko dogshit
>imblying

I can understand people talking shit about the 1963, but personally I like the styling and $200 for a mechanical column-wheel chrono with a unique look and some neat history is pretty damn good. Certainly a better value for you money than the shit TAG shovels.

And why would I drop like 2 grand on an awful clusterfuck of an aquaracer with a cheap quartz movement when I can get the beautiful SBGX059 with the best quartz movement in the world for that money?

>>9841870
Bro you can get the Aquaracer with an automatic in house movement also it has bretty good brand recognition so people are gonna know it cost you a pretty penny compared to Seiko which sells solar powered watches at Macy's

>>9841899
>good brand recognition so people are gonna know it cost you a pretty penny
Oh, you're one of those. Might as well just buy a Rolex then, I hear puretime has them for pretty cheap.

>>9841853
Alright.
can you recommend a black leather strap that would fit this?

>>9841850
I don't know what I really want, I don't really have much other hobbies so I would like to continue my hobby of watches.

>>9841899
>tag huer
>better then seiko

Pick one and only one, tags are on the same tier as tissot, only they cost way more

>>9841899
Implying anyone especially casuals know anything about watches.
every normal person only knows rolex watches.
i bet if you put a 3,000$ rolex and a 17,000 AP watch in front of any casual normal person, they will assume the rolex is more expensive than the AP
so unless you live or work in anplace where status is a thing, then go for it.
Anyone can wear an expensive watch and not pull it off.
buy something and make it yyours

The Sekorient double watch. Very rare.

Someone posted this in a recent thread and I really need to know what model this is / w2c. It's a vostok, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

>>9842228
It's a vostok amphibia with a custom bezel and NATO strap

>>9842231
Marry me.

Thank you! It was the bezel that was throwing me off.

>>9842228
I painted the hands too.

>>9842245
>>9842245
Suss out zenitar on eBay, expect a long ship Tom and questionable quality, but I wouldn't expect much out of a watch that hardly costs more then a packet of cigarettes

>>9842258
You did a shitty job

That or you have parkinsons

I had nothing to thin the paints, but it's hardly noticeable unlike the rough edges in that picture. Thank you for the concern though.

>I had nothing to thin the paints,

Maybe you should had waited until you had the tools for the job ?

>>9842409
Because I can just strip them and do just that if I wanted? However, they look fine now.

>>9842415

Why do a job once properly when you can do it twice & debateable

>>9841587
If it's back from service by now, mind measuring the lug-to-lug / complete length?

>>9842417
It's called having a hobby, and learning. There is nothing to debate over being satisfied with my own watch.

>>9842427
Why are you posting your watch on a forum if you're gonna be such a little bitch over criticism.

"I'm happy so no one elses opinion matters" You obviously posted it expecting to get praise that didn't work out and now you're butthurt

>tfw still waiting for my dream watch to appear on eBay
Feels impatient

>>9842644
Tell me what it is so I can fucking buy it before you to spite you.

thanks

>>9842647
>implying I'm ree
dear god no

My dream watch is a 36,000 bph blue King Seiko.

>>9842661
damn

that's ugly

you can keep it, bro.

sorry for intruding

>>9835663
I'm thinking about buying this, but I'm not sure I want to because of huge ass import taxes into Europe.
Add 25% + handling fee.

I'm thinking about buying the Seiko SKX007 and add a Oyster strap or an orange NATO.

Is it hard to equip an oyster strap unto the watch? Haven't tried it before. Only done reguar leather and NATOs.

>>9840920
Nigga it's not a fucking divers watch, does it matter? It's designed for pilots, theres no water in the sky lmao

>>9842932
I assume it's like any other strap, depends on the pins. You could also just take it to a watch shop and they'd probably do it for you free of charge.

>>9842258
that looks so fucking good. I found this model last night. I'll be getting one. I'm going to do it similar to yours. Nice job

>>9842274
I'll check it out. Thanks

>>9842437
You are the most massively autistic person that I've ever seen in my 5 years on 4chan. Either that, or you're just trying to be a little shitstain. Either way, nobody likes you.

my fossil watch, two other cheap quartz watches on the way

>>9842952
where does rain come from?

>>9843696
i hate those pretentious sailor wrist bands

>>9843756
I don't think you know what pretentious means

However, I totally agree that the wristband is ugly as fuck

>>9843696
dear god that thing is humongous

you have horrible taste

>>9843783
It's almost like taste is subjective.

>>9843851
Nah mate you just like shitty watches

>>9843851
If there's such a thing as objectively bad taste, you've got it in spades.

He posted the watch because I asked him about it. I asked him about it because I liked it. He was doing me a favor, not asking for criticism. But I wouldn't expect you to understand social norms.

>>9843919
You're perfectly free to like what other people don't like, that's not the issue.
What you're doing right now is dipping fresh hot dogshit in ranch dressing and eating it in public, then acting indignant when other people are justifiably disgusted.

>>9843890
excellent choice for a poorfag. I always recommend Casio/Citizen/Seiko/Timex for people looking for a quality watch at a reasonable price. You can't go wrong with that watch in your pic. Solid choice. The band looks good, too.

>>9843967
If I like the taste of what I'm eating, your job is to sit there and let me eat it. You don't have to partake. It would be different if I was eating it and asking you to take a bite. You're going to eventually learn there's a whole world out there with 7 billion people in it. Some of those people are going to like things that you don't, those assholes. And your job is to learn that that is ok.

>>9843970
Yeah i actually have the Weekender with that France flag NATO band, i love it. A bit noisy but oh well.

>>9843986
>If I like the taste of what I'm eating, your job is to sit there and let me eat it.

Objectively incorrect, and you're kind of a shithead for assuming so.

>ome of those people are going to like things that you don't
I've already said that's perfectly fine, even expected.
What's not fine is to eat dogshit and wear ridiculously oversized Fossil watches,and take pretentious photographs of garbage calligraphy.
It's OK for a pig to wallow in its own shit. It's not OK for a human to wallow in pigshit.

>>9844078
Not even that guy but says who? Taste is subjective in every term.

Best pilot watch for somebody who doesn't actually fly?

Don't give a shit how much it costs as long as it's $10,000 or less (the more expensive it is, the higher quality it better be, kiddo.)

>>9844327
I was just gonna ask about a good pilot watch, monitoring of interest.

>>9844327
Stowa flieger
Archimede pilot

>>9844327

I think Damasko have the best bang per buck pilots watches out there. They start at $1,200USD the basic model and just under $2,000 for the basic chronograph.

>>9842437
>stop liking what I don't like
Palpable.

Getting the crystal replaced tomorrow.

>>9844616
Is the GMT-Master II any good?

>>9844784
Yes
Get a 1765, not an ugly 116710

Is there any true 24hour watches? Like just a 24 hour hand and the minute hand? Just like the Rolex GMT extra feature, but using it as the main time measurement?

>>9836693
Enjoy those bro. I've seen you post this a lot just gotta say the reference numbers make me kek every time.

I love this watch because it's so goddamn ugly, it's mystifying. It's so fucking ugly it's almost beautiful in how unique it is. Goddamn that is historically ugly. If the Hunchback of Notre Dame and the Elephant Man had a child, this is the watch it would wear.

>>9846349
I wouldn't pay over 80 grand for a jap tourbillon.
Probably buy a Breguet I've wanted for a while if I had to spend that on a watch

copped a seagull 1963; first mechanical watch.

I'm debating whether it's worth buying a nice alligator strap for or not. I'm hesitant because one could cost like half what the watch itself did
