We need to stop respondig to the bait, or else the ride will never end.
But lets not think about all the possible faggotry>>51616350
and enjoy watches.
Thank you to the ball poster from the last thread. Made me go to their website and find this sexy beast.
Repostan' my review of the Tisell Sub so the guy who asked for it will actually see it.
But to summarize:
The Good:
>Wears way smaller than other Sub homages - pretty close to the real deal.
>Ceramic bezel is nicely done - All the numbers are uniformly engraved, bezel is a uniform colour, lume pip is well placed.
Ceramic is a personal preference, but I do see it as being a higher accomplishment than just plain aluminium bezels.
>Dial has nice sunburst effect.
>Dial printing is easily on par with the OM, can't see any flaws.
>Cyclops is at least 2* magnification
>Solid end links.
This surprised me, as I had heard the end links were hollow, but they may have updated it when they made the model international.
>Screw bars on the bracelet.
Screw bars are a personal preference; I know some people prefer spring bars in the links to keep the bracelet "clean", but I prefer screw bars for ease of adjustment.
>All links pressure fit together, so the bracelet does feel very snug.
>Nicely designed milled clasp.
I have to say I'm very impressed with a milled clasp for this price, it's similar visually to the Rolex clasp, but the design is a bit different.
The clasp has a glidelock style adjustment, although a fair bit cruder (clunks between notches, rather than gliding over the top).
>Mioyta 9015
We all know it: It hacks, it handwinds without tearing itself to shreds, it's a genuine movement and it's borderline high beat.
The Bad
>Stock bracelet may not fit people with very large/fat Canadian-esque wrists.
I have a 7.5" wrist and I could only remove two links (each about 10mm long) - so not much room for huge wrists.
>For such a small diver (compared to watches nowadays at least) it's quite tall; it's about 13mm tall.
>The clasp lock, when open, can scuff the brushed finish on the bracelet.
>Sapphire is AR coated, but not domed.
Overall, I think it's the nicest sub homage in the $200 bracket.
Pic not mine, obviously.
Rolex a cute
>>51616450
Not that guy, but thanks!
>>51616498
>>51616450
Going to add:
The Bad:
>Bezel is only 60 clicks and fairly loud - but it does feel very solid, with no play and it is unidirectional.
At least it's not that garbage 90 click system that some tacticool microbrand had.
>>51616487
>generic looking dive watch that no one will ever take on a dive
Nice waste of money.
>>51616541
Nice b8
>>51616539
Hey I happen to have said 90 click bezel and it's fucking fine even if the given justification was bullshit.
>>51616541
>Not understanding that mechanical dive watches are a design genre
Welcome to /wt/ newfriend.
>>51616581
Set your bezel to 10 minutes.
I'll wait.
>>51616566
He's right though, that classic diver design has been copied so fucking much that you'd be retarded to pick one of the most expensive ones when there are so many interesting alternatives, that are so high quality and much more affordable, you can actually get several for the price of a Rolex.
Also it's still a pretend watch.
Can automatics be used while working out?
Running/lifting?
Would the impact of running damage it?
>>51616566
That's true though.
>>51616605
It's precise to 20 seconds instead of 15, big fucking deal.
>>51616581
>>51616605
REKT
>>51616653
Still though, why not just stick with a 60 click bezel that allows you to line up with every second, not every other second?
There is literally nothing wrong with Invicta.
>>51616708
Because more clicks is more clicks, most of the time you set your timing bezel the minute marker isn't exactly lined up with a minute marker anyways.
>>51616750
>Justifying a 90 click bezel.
Truly, you are worse than Fritzl.
>>51616787
I'm not "justifying" it, I'm just saying it's a non-issue in real world use.

Second, it was passed down to me through my family.
Vintage Wakmann Datora triple date chronograph with an ETA Valjoux cal. 730. Wakmann was owned by Breitling in the 50's-70's as the U.S. distributor in order to get around import tariffs. You can find them right now for around $2k if you look around online.
so how cheap can one get an automatic mechanical diver that doesnt look shit, is water resistant 200m and not a sub hommage/fake.
does it get cheaper than seiko?

Again, how often are is the minute hand exactly on a marker when you set the bezel? I'm at most +-20 seconds, on a 60 click it's +-30 seconds, and 120 clicks gets you +-15. If I wanted to time shit that precisely I'd use a fucking chronograph. It just doesn't matter in day to day use, would I rather have 120 clicks? Yeah, but I wouldn't want to step down to 60. I just don't understand why you guys are so worked up over such an inconsequential detail, the watch has plenty of much larger issues but I still like it and think it's a good value.

>being this salty over some fucking bezel
>>51617198
You set the bezel for minutes, to know how much air is left in your dive tank.
60 clicks is accurate to every minute.
1, 2 ,3, etc.
120 clicks is accurate to every 30 seconds, and thus, every minute.
1, 2, 3, etc.
90 clicks is accurate to every 45 seconds, and thus, every third minute.
3, 6, 9, etc.

well i was just looking if i'm missing anything
i have an amphibia and it has its flaws.
its more like an ever ongoing project. (like making it change the date at precicely 00:00 or stufff like that)
i just removed the rotor because it wasnt winding the watch anymore, its the second one that gave up on me.
luckily ugly ones for parts go cheap on ebay.
but im not even sure if i need another (automatic) watch and if it even needs to be a diver

At the time it was made, all Wakmann was doing was the final stage of assembly of Breitling-supplied watches. It wasn't until the late 70's that they began production of their own watches, which were still built around Valjoux movements. They made a few interesting models with the Valjoux Cal. 88 movement, which had all of the complications of the 730 + moonphase.
>>51617407
>>51617363
Nevermind, forgot this was quartz
>>51617283
You set the index to line up with the current position of the minute hand, not with the minute markers.
Literally more clicks means being able to be more accurate.
>>51617357
Do you even know how to trigger an autist?
But yes, it's pretty fucking simple.
>Timing
Rotate bezel to minute hand to time your dive.
>Air
Rotate bezel to minute hand.
Say you have twenty minutes of air.
60 - 20 = rotate 40 minutes counter clockwise.
>Decompression
Rotate bezel to time calculated to prevent decompression sickness.
Hence the fine marks between 0 and 15 min.
>>51617495
>You set the index to line up with the current position of the minute hand, not with the minute markers.
Depends on what you want to do m80.
A diving bezel fulfils multiple functions.
>>51617523
You can do with it what you wish, but a diving bezel is designed for diving, and more clicks means more accurate
>>51617413
I have a Wakmann Datalarm with an AS 1931 alarm movement.
>>51617540
>You can do with it what you wish, but a diving bezel is designed for diving, and more clicks means more accurate
More accurate for one application, less for the other two.
120>60>90
>>51617568
I'm not following you here.
>>51617592
Air and decompression timings are based off calculations.
You don't try to set it for exactly 20 minutes from now (ie 08:21:45).
You calculate that it is approximately 08:02 and that you need 20 minutes.
With a 120 or 60 click bezel, setting to 08:22 is much easier and accurate.
>>51617568
>More accurate for one application, less for the other two.
Suddenly a diving bezel has exactly three applications.
But in seriousness, a diving bezel, when compared to a pilot's bezel is meant to function as a count-up timer from the current minute position that can not, due to error, appear like less time has passed than what has truly transpired.
And more clicks simple makes that more accurate.
>>51617645
>But in seriousness, a diving bezel, when compared to a pilot's bezel is meant to function as a count-up timer from the current minute position that can not, due to error, appear like less time has passed than what has truly transpired.
Exactly why it works great for air remaining, you can only lower the time remaining, not increase.
It's a bit less handy for decompression, but decompression goes hand in hand with timing your dive.
Back in the day, you didn't have a dive computer, you used your watch bezel.
>>51617643
...Or you just set the bezel to where the minute hand is and it tells you when 20 minutes have elapsed and once again, more clicks is more accurate.
>>51617713
>decompression goes hand in hand with timing your dive
Actually you time your dive to avoid decompression.
>>51617740
>Clearly has never faced oxygen deprivation before.
Get REAAALLLY drunk.
Have a friend off hand tell you a random number.
Continue about your business and try to remember that number.
You do not want to trust your faculties in that situation.
>>51617781
What? How does this have to do with anything?
>>51617772
>Actually you time your dive to avoid decompression.
No shit, but if shit goes wrong you can use your dive bezel to avoid fucking yourself up.
>>51617803
If you set the bezel to your minute hand then you have to remember "20 minutes" or "32 minutes" as your oh fuck number.
If you set the bezel for a count down, you don't have to do this.
>>51617838
>2015
>not using a dive computer
>>51617846
We're discussing dive watches and why 120>60>90.
Dive computers are of course the smart option, but this is about which bezel is the best option and is truest to its routes.
>>51617881
You're discussing obsolete shit that for the most part was never really used. It's completely retarded to argue what is the best or more accurate "dive watch" for completely hypothetical diving situations.
>>51617899
>You're discussing obsolete shit that for the most part was never really used. It's completely retarded to argue what is the best or more accurate "dive watch" for completely hypothetical diving situations.

>>51617838
Diving bezels are not count down. None of this has to do with the number of clicks though.
>>51617934
>Diving bezels are not count down. None of this has to do with the number of clicks though.
If you're timing your dive they aren't, no shit.
But they can easily be used for critical count-downs that you can't be late on, but can be early on.

>>51617957
Unless you're diving professionally, rather than recreationally, how often do you need a count down to a specific time? None of my dives have been in a time table like that, we just needed to make sure that we wrapped up and surfaced within X minutes of dropping in (unless some other reason demanded it be ended sooner) but I could see it being needed on an oil rig or something (a corporate timetable) but at that point your main method of timing is being in communication with those out of the water, and if that line of communication gets cut I would assume you'd just call the dive there, and finish the job on another dive.

Dogs aren't really into watches.
>>51616581
90 clicks? What the?
>>51618031
Why would they?
Casio is more driven by utility than muh horlogerie. Considering they already make sturdy solar watches, there's no reason why they'd do that.
You certainly won't be buying Casios for the beauty of the movement anyway, and sweeping seconds hands aside, there's no perceptible difference.

Sup, /watch/ been lurking for a while, got a few questions.
Seem like you guys ride GS dicks. And in the last thread someone was baiting all you nigs, but out of all that some one said,
>In what way is Rolex superior to GS
And I thought, in what way is GS superior to Rolex and anyother Swiss watch for that matter?
Not baiting, I genuinely would like to know.
Secondly, I got a friend who is all upity about his Omega Seamaster. In typical it's expensive and Swiss, but he knows shit about watches. Is it actually good?
>>51621288

>>51621288
Calling one several thousand dollar watch superior over another is kind of silly because at that point they're really pretty similar besides subjective differences which come down to taste. Some things GS is good at are use of some materials like diashield titanium like in the snowflake or their in-house spring alloys and lume, the unique spring drive movement which is unmatched by anyone else, and really excellent dial finishing which has been a Seiko strong suit for a long time. Rolex has their own cool materials like their unique stainless alloy and high tech ceramics, they make only traditional mechanical movements but they are very good at it, many of their designs are classic and iconic and very recognizable. A GS will draw very little attention and most people will have no idea what it is when they see it, most of their designs are very conservative and plain looking from afar, whereas Rolex is the most recognizable expensive watch brand on the planet, some people may like the attention and some may want something understated. GS also tends to be much cheaper than Rolex while arguably being just as good.
>>51621288
Grand Seiko has:
- completely in-house watches from metal foundry to crystals to mainsprings.
- better quality and better finished mechanical movements than the vast majority of Swiss watch makers, and certainly vastly better than any Swiss watches available for a comparable price
- the spring drive, the single biggest leap forward in horology in decades.
- has clearly better case/dial/bracelet construction quality and finishing than any Swiss watches in even vaguely similar price ranges.
- ended mechanical accuracy competitions by utterly crushing the Swiss
- the Swiss have to rig every certification and competition to keep Seiko from utterly eating their lunch
Massdrop has a shitload of watches atm
>>51621288
Seiko and Rolex are both significant manufacturers making high quality watches. They both can keep such a high quality of product because they have control over the components that goes into the watches, including difficult to manufacture components like mainsprings. Rolex is involved heavily with a lot of marketing, and has gotten in trouble with price fixing and other anti-competitive practices in the USA and EU, so maybe they've ended up with a slightly inflated price for a new model, (while we might say Seiko trends towards a reasonable price) and the world of vintage Rolex is absolutely insane. Many other brands have unique buys for vintage models, most of the vintage Rolex market is so overvalued by people who seem to only know the word 'Rolex' it's crazy.

RIP chronometer competitions, too bad the mountain jews couldn't get over their butthurt.
But as great as GS is and as much as I like all my Seikos I really think the Seiko circlejerk here has gotten out of hand. High end Swiss watches are excellent too and claiming GS is vastly superior to everyone else is about as ridiculous as the people who come in here refusing to accept anything that isn't Swiss.

other side if someone asks
I'm trying to find watches with funky, colorful aeronautical styling like pic related. Any input?
>>51621630
The arrow indidcates which way to push the pin out. Try the little circular part on the side of the link with a mallet and pin remover, or a hammer and thumbtack if you dont have the proper tools. If that doesn't work, it uses plates. Hit the side of the little stacked part in the middle
>>51621692
Pic related is also similar to what I am trying to find. It's a Swatch from 1985.
>>51621630
There's a tool but if you get something thin enough you can just push out those pins in the direction of the arrows and I think you put them in the same way
>>51621631
They have competitions today. Seiko is just not invited. Which, in my view, completely invalidates those competitions.
>>51621604
fuck, why did you let me know this...
WHY?
>>51621631
>>51621732
The Swiss watch industry literally has to rig all the competitions out of fear of being dominated by Seiko in a of them. That's basically an admission that Seiko/Credor us superior to the entire Swiss industry, horologically.

From what I'm understanding, I think vastly superior when comparing prices. A $3000 GS will CRUSH a $3000. But if you matchup two of their elites they are similar, with the GS slightly pulling a head. Other than the Seiko costing less.
>>51621732
>>51621769
Butthurt if I've ever seen it.
This raises another question. Credors.
Same movements as the GSs? More finish? Different materials? Can I get some details?

in all seriousness though your watch is fucking badass
>>51619848

>>51621821

>>51621896
Not the quoted poster, but welcome to /wt/ newfriend.
>>51621821
GS focuses more on simple 3-handers or ordinary plain complications in stainless or titanium, Credor is muh Haute Horlogerie and uses precious metals and handmade finishes and includes crazy minute repeaters and sonneries and grand complications.

It leverages science, technology and culture to highlight the skills of watchmakers, artisans and industrialists in their quest for perfection, and aims to support chronometry in contemporary mechanical horology by enabling watchmakers to compare the performance levels obtained by their timepieces. Unlike the original competitions, however, these modern events aim to compare the performance and reliability of encased watches intended for market distribution.
> The pieces submitted must have been assembled, adjusted and set by the participant company. The constituent parts of the movement must have been made in a country on the European continent.

Well a spring drive minute repeater is pretty goddamn impressive. And it costs like $350,000. It's on an entirely different level from stuff like GS and Rolex. There are Credors that overlap in price with GS and in that case then yes it's mostly down to what you prefer. Credor also has more ladies models and GS is mostly for men.
>>51621896
Thanks for contributing, friend.

How many of you chucklefucks actually have GSs?
>>51622225
This one totally counts.
>>51622257
Can that particular watch also display the days in English text?
Does anyone have any experience with either of these two watches?
Which one do you think would be better for basic outdoor use, and running?
Does anyone have a recommendation of a better gps outdoor watch
>>51622305
Yeah it's English and Moon. Every Seiko day wheel I've seen has English plus a second language, even old Seikos.
>>51622305
>needing English
>>51622357
Thanks, that's very cool. I'm not a Japanese shill, but I think the Japanese attention to practical details is unrivalled.

I own the Fenix II.
I bought it thinking that it would be useful outdoors but it ended up being a hindrance.
The battery life makes it useless for anything that takes more than a couple of hours.
I ended up just using a regular quartz and a compass for land nav.
I would recommend you get a real outdoor handheld GPS unit and a dependable field watch.
Battery reserve for gps watches just isn't there yet.

Just read that, if anyone's interested. Y'all niggers might already know, but the ones who just ride Seiko's dick blindly should check it out.
It's a solid piece.

My sides entered orbit the first time you posted that one, thank god you reposted it so I can save it this time!

I'm new to the terminologies but does the SARB035 count as a dress watch?
>>51623318
Yes

yes

It counts as it and usually works as it, but on a bracelet it's got many sporty elements although not loud and crass.

Not him, but he has a point. You honestly think the majority of people here actually read up on shit?
>>51623581
I feel like most regulars here know what a tri-synchro regulator is, yes. We have been flooded with garbage the last couple weeks though.
>>51616900
You really are fucking retarded
>>51623626
There's ALWAYS more new than regs. Regardless of any influxes. And at least he's trying, not just another 'what's the best watch I can get for 50 bucks?', or 'lel who even buys jap watches?'
And personally I think /over/ half of them are faggots from /fa/ or other fa/g/s baiting.
Got this not too long ago. Zelos Abyss. Rated to 3000m. Really happy with it. Pic from last week.

>>51623734
I'm not saying he shouldn't have posted it, I just think most of the people who actually like Seiko here have some a pretty decent understanding of why, that's all.
>>51622357
can confirm. I have a "Pogue". second language is Spanish

>If the bronze case comes in contact with water at all it oxidizes
Who thought this was a good idea?
>>51623855
it will do that anyway. Usually takes a single humid day for it to lose nearly all of its sheen.
But hey, the hipster trash love it.

>>51623855
It's easy enough to get rid of the patina if you want.
Fuck the haters, I paid exactly nothing for it. No, didn't steal it. Won it on a reddit thread
It said its original price was $700 and I got it for like $70.
How did I do?
>>51623318
Close enough, especially on leather. If you want to be super pedantic then a very dressy watch would probably have thinner lugs, probably no lume, and be a bit smaller. The SARB is a little more sporty than dressy because of the bracelet and oyster style case and slightly larger size.

Hey bro thanks for the toilet paper
>>51623904
Go back there with your punter DOGSHIT.
Or if you're not retarded, sell it on /f29/ immediately.
What else do you have in your collection?
>>51623914
Despicable, just because the inflated MSRP is $700 doesn't mean it's worth more than about $7.
Cancel if possible.
>>51622705
Thanks for the solid advice
>>51623922
And here's what I mean by oyster case by the way. It's a Rolex name for that sporty rounded lug shape that blends into the case rather than the thin lugs that jut out.
Just copped pic related on fleabay
>>51623960
why do you hate that watch so much. Please actually tell me instead of just calling it dogshit. Other watches in my collection:
Luminox F-35 Lightning II commemorative (pic related)
Seiko 6139-6005 (aka Pogue)
Citizen Ecozilla
And some Fossil and other miscellaneous junk that were gifts that I wouldn't bother to post
>>51624028
Luminox makes pretty high quality watches compared to most commemorative pieces. /wt/ will call them dogshit automatically due to cheap quartz inside.
>>51624084
I like it because it actually commemorates something I work on. Therefore it means something to me.
It's comfortable, too. And honestly half these people posting just seem really fucking salty for no reason
>>51624112
remember where you are
>>51624123
No fucking shit dude
Maybe a nice heaping spoonful of bagel will release some of the tension around here.
>>51624166
What is that resting in?
>>51624192
that's for me to know
>>51624208
Okay then I will assume it's cheesy potatoes
Asked my Dad what he thought about "smart" watches today, he handed me this. How did I do /wt/?
>>51624321
I'd wear it
>>51624321
lovely
>>51624321
"smart" man
>>51624321
That looks like a nice vintage piece from when quartz wasn't dogshit, I'd wear the shit out of that.
>>51624351
boy you love to throw that "dogshit" word around a lot. you really should explain yourself
Are Nixons bad/bro tier watches?
I haven't been much into watches, but I've given some though into buying a watch from them
>>51624361
It's pretty self-expository, I think.
>>51624375
It's a smear on the name of a good man.
>>51624375
Terrible, heinous dogshit. I'd rather wear an invicta.
>>51624375
This is an example of dogshit here.
>>51624377
...You need to fucking explain WHY otherwise you just seem like a petty person throwing the word "dogshit" around
dogshit dogshit dogshit holy fuck you guys sound retarded
>>51624375
Most nixons are ugly fashion watches, like the one you posted for instance. Some of their Time Tellers I would wear though.
>>51624428
>holy shit guys what the FUCK is a "meme"!?!

explain the dogshit then?
>>51624518
don't bother, these fucking faggots just like calling everything dogshit that they don't like
fuck them all
>>51624534
It's a meme, not a dick.
Don't take it so hard.
>>51624544
hurr durr
>>51624534
what I mean is; if they make such nice pieces, why do they turn around and peddle dogshit?
