How brittle are they though really? I doubt there are too many tests out there like "hey guys today I'm going to drop my DSOTM and see how fragile it is". I don't doubt they are more fragile than a steel case, but if you drop a steel case watch on a hard surface (e.g. tarmac) you'll fuck up the case and maybe damage the movement too.

I think if they could shatter on the wrist by banging it into shit then they are too fragile, but does a watch really need to reliably survive being dropped? If you have a $10K watch you should be more careful with it.

Today is inventory day in the store, but I came in anyway to get work done. Fuck, this is comfy, just working on shitters, without any dumb customers bothering me, listening to shit like Hall & Oates and Toto.

Now I just mixed the proper shade of blue from white, emerald and turquoise model paints for the replacement hands for this shitter, normally I could NEVER do that, as some dumb customer would always barge in and while I change battery in his FUCKING GARBAGE watch the paint dies.

After forty years none of the days have faded even a bit, which is great.

Usually one of the Sundays, depending on the original owner's language would have been faded by now.

More of the dial side. Nothing really spectacular going on around here, just that the construction is more reminiscent of a mid-range automatic, rather than a "budget" quartz movement that the Type-II was supposed to be.

It already has a new movement, this here is the current state. I'm still not happy with the color of the replacement hands (at 2 and 6 o'clock). Should have used gray instead of white, now it looks like what it probably was when new, while the originals are pretty faded. Also the hand at 2 is kinda bumpy, I'll definitely redo that.

Oy vey my fellow goyim,

Thoughts on the new Hamilton khaki automatic field watch? I just graduated and my parents wanted to gift me a watch. But it cannot be more than 400 dollars. #poorboi

I own an automatic Laco A type flieger already. Wanted to get something that could be worn as a dress watch but like the 'vintage' milspec type watches.

What do you recommend?

Hajime's stuff is really cool. Kari's watches... just don't speak to me. The movement finishing is below other Independents, and while exotic dials are his thing, I've never particularly liked his dials. When I met Kari in person, he didn't seem super interested in talking about his watch tech.

I think Romain Gauthier is the independent that deserves the most time that he doesn't get here. The logical one is crammed full of cool tech and when I met him he spent twenty minutes talking to me about balance wheel designs.

The seller notes the watch is recased. The dial does appear to have an HF logo that might indicate 36k, although it doesn't actually say HF on the dial. Dial could be refinished.

I am extremely skeptical this is a 1960s 36k movement but if it is, it could be some kind of early 36k prototype I guess.

The underlying movement used a 2.4mhz AT1-cut crystal oscillator. While most standard quartz crystals require some kind of thermocompensation to achieve rates better than 60spy, megahertz-range lens-cut crysals are sufficiently temperature-insensitive to not require any active thermocompensation.

The megaquartz movement had a number of advanced timesetting features. It had an independently adjustable hour hand, for changing timezone without affecting the timekeeping. With the crown in the relevant position, the hour hand moved continuously. When the crown was pushed back in, a system of magnets would align the hour hand to the nearest hour in the correct position relative to the minute hand. It also had a button that would advance the second hand by 1 second or that would have the second hand temporarily, for easy resynchronization with a time source.

Are there any watches with unusual mechanisms for showing or measuring the time?

I had an idea for a watch where the hour and seconds hands were actually two little curved glass tubes filled with colored fluid (like a thermometer) where the seconds would be modulated by pressure. Is there something like that out there? And if not, you can just talk about anything unusual.

The 2824-2 Standard or Elabore are not really meaningfully better than the 6R15C, and the 4R35 is better than the disposable Powermatic 80.

The 2824-2 Elabore is better, but Seikos in that pricerange will have much better external workmanship and finishing.

Just realized people here don't recommend the SARX and SARW lines. So I guess they don't really match up.

>>13493241
>28k beatrate, thinner movement, smaller diameter movement
>not better
And you can even get a handwinder at that price, too.

Furthermore, if you want a 6r15 you'll eventually have to go to an SARX, anyway.

The 6R15 is small enough to fit in a 36mm x 11mm case, how is being even smaller of any practical advantage for the 2824-2? The accuracy will also be similar enough that the beat rate doesn't provide any performance advantage.

And again, the SARX tier Seikos have massively better external finishing than you'll get on any comparably priced ETA powered competitor.

So first of all, no one is making three hander movements worth writing home about until you get to the ETA 2892-A2, Soprod A10, 4L35, 6L35, 4S15 level, and secondly the workmanship that goes into manufacturing and finishing the cases, dials, hand and bracelets is still value added.

>>13493305
The Case/Bracelet/Dial/Hands you get on SARX/SBDx tier Seikos are the best you will find for even double their retail prices. It's the entire raison d'etre of that tier of models.

The hands are the part I wasn't sure I would fall in love with. But the two finishes on them is great. Since I got this watch I have worn it for almost every day for almost 3 months as you can probably tell from the dirt on it.
The only part that really drags it down is if you flip it over. The case back is a bit thick because of the window and you don't really need it with the movements finishing.

Not really. The 2824-2 Standard and Elabore are essentially unadjusted movements. Unadjusted movements are never going to be especially exciting or have huge advantages over each other. 6R15 vs 2824-2 std and Elabore vs Miyota 9015 none are massively better than the rest.

mostly fiction.

only a little bit, but mostly it's a misnomer. for about a month after servicing, the oils, particularly in the pallet, can change the regulation slightly. this is mostly noticable in older watches that use more pallet grease.

as I said, it's a misnomer, because what makes a bigger difference is your wearing habbits. occasionally people need a watch regulated to the positions the keep it in. and in that sense, you're not breaking it in, but it still might need adjustment in the beginning
