Do not fall for it, newfriend. We do not want you see discussing against a very bad bait for the next 15 posts.
Stop answering, the troll has arguments you can not win by reason, so don't waste your time.
And who the fuck cares, there are poeple who like quartz. I like both. If you try to tell people how much better a mechanical watch is against a quartz, you are having superiority complexes and are not better than those fedora wearing hyper atheists/bronies.
My father is gonna be in Japan the coming March, and I was thinking of asking him for some Nippon DM watch.
I already have a SARB017, and not really interested in the other well known models recommended here such as the SARB33/35/65 and so on, I find them a bit boring. Lawyer-core.
Was thinking about one from pic related. SARG15, SARG12, SARW10.
The SRAW10 is beautiful, but I don't think that as a poor 25 year old student I can pull off the rose gold scheme, so I thought on the SARW09 which is the same only in silver and it also resemble the SARX15 which is a plus,but the all black thingy makes it a bit dull.
any other rec?
Budget is 500$ top.

Give a hardon to a niche of which only a single percent can afford?
Functionally speaking, it's inferior to countless other technologies. The last appeal that remains is purely technological.
So please calm down, mechanical watches are more than open to mockery. They're literally wrist baits.

You can wear whatever you want. Gold goes perfectly with casual clothes, maybe smart casual (nothing baggy, everything well fitted to the body) .
Actually nobody gives a shit. Ppl wear gold color DW's and nobody questions wether they have money or not.

>>51654178

It looks better in person. It's always the case when you take a photo, the great reflections of the chrome can not be seen in full perfektion.
W/O the metal border the indices would look like paper and actually very cheap.
>>51654134
I don't dig the metal/chrome or whatever bezel on the hour markings and on the round chrono indices, without that it would be a nice fucking watch, if you like it good for you. I just feel it would be better if Casio didn't crowd the dial so much like they always do.

What's /g/'s opinion on the Luch one hand watch?
Mine is coming sometime next week all the way from Belarus.
>>51654781
don't wear it when you need to know the exact time
other than that, nice
>>51654781
It both doesn't look particularly dressy and can't tell you the time correctly. In short, 0/10 would never be caught dead wearing.
I'm getting either the Orient Black Ray or the Seiko SKX007 for christmas, what strap does /g/ recommend?
I need to get another strap of the same size for my shitty fossil so I want them to be interchangeable.
How does amazon usa handle returns? I've bought a sarb 033 a few weeks ago, and flew back to Amsterdam after a week of wearing the watch. After closer inspection I noticed a speck of dirt right above the 3Rd minute marker and in the middle of the 9 indice.
I've contacted the seller and they said they were sorry and just to return it through amazon and they will either refund or repair it for me.
I'd rather get it refunded cause I think I'd rather pay a bit more to get the sdgm003, but I'm not sure if amazon will allow me to and won't just repair it.
I think the sdgm would be nicer cause of the diashield and anti reflective coating, I hope 40mm isnt too big for my wrists though
Pic related, the spec of white dirt I was talking about.
>>51654021
>not having a dick on your watch

Where can I buy (non-shit) seikos with 8F33 movement? The SBQL003 for instance.
>>51655160
>a bit more
its almost double the price. how is that a bit more?
>>51655095
Do the watch you're considering even have the same lug width as your fossil? Seiko's tend to be incompatible with everything else (requiring e.g. 21mm straps when everyone else's 20 or 22).
I recommend leather if you're going to wear it day to day.
>>51655199

>>51655223

>>51655223
>Seiko's tend to be incompatible with everything else (requiring e.g. 21mm straps when everyone else's 20 or 22)
The only popular watch around that does that is the Orient Bambino, the Ray and SKX007 both have regular lug widths
>>51655223
Yeah actually they're both 22mm. I'm definitely going to get a nice leather strap but I also want a NATO, just not sure what color to get or what are the best ones.
>>51653165
where can i pick up this watch?
Hello there /wt/, I'm back with an update for you all. I've made an update to Trefoil's color scheme, hopefully it looks much better now than it did when I first added color. There is now also a Chalk build of Trefoil, making it possible to use on Pebble Time Round devices.
Unfortunately, the app still remains broken on Aplite devices. I've received no response or indication of a fix happening anytime soon, and I've waited more than a month. The issue's page is here if any other developers have encountered the problems I have, and would like to comment:
https://github.com/pebble/pebblejs/issues/99
As always, I've released my source code under the MIT license. Enjoy, and feel free to fork:
https://github.com/gitgud-software/trefoil
>>51655296
For NATOs it's easy: Just don't get anything below 5$ and you'll pretty much be settled on not getting shit. Get a bunch of them, try color schemes you think you like etc. If it was a SKX009 it would look great with more vivid NATOs i guess.
>>51655275
I can recommend you a great brand of buttcream if you want. I haven't tried it myself but I've never heard a complaint about it.
>>51655317
Aaaaand another update, Meiguro comment on the issue and said it's apparently about menu items not being truncated at all, causing problems C-side. I'll implement a shitty fix and see if I can roll out an Aplite build.
>>51655223
Pretty sure this is standard 20mm along with half their other watches, Senpai.
The only Seiko I can think of with a non-standard lug width is the 44KS >>51655190, which has 19mm lugs.
>>51655338
Whatever man, you're not going to find one, if I knew where to get an 8f seiko that didn't look like dogshit and wasn't a $900 alpinist I'd already have one.
>>51655336
Thanks. I was thinking about getting the 009 but it's a little to bright for me. It definitely works with more straps tho.
Daily reminder that bulova harnesses dark magic to power their watches.

Is a beat a full oscillation or just one direction?
>>51655598
One direction. A 3Hz watch is 6 beats per second.

That's what I thought. Now that I think about it, it's all that makes sense.

>>51655789
Oh you're right, I didn't even notice the lack of day, I just saw the crazy case finish and the indices and posted.

Posting my grand meme again because someone in the last thread asked what it was just before it archived. It's a 9943-7000, it's a 70s model but there are a whole lot of similar quartz Seikos on ebay.

Just cross-posting, I updated Trefoil to 1.5 and the application should work on all Pebble devices now.
For those of you unaware, Trefoil is an application that allows you to browse 4chan from a Pebble watch.
Sorry I can't settle on a name, I forgot my tripcode a while back and I've been alternating between "Gitgud Software' and "Trefoil Dev".
Thread on Trefoil 1.5 here:
>>51656539
>>51657506
So you're making these videos yourself? Are you going to quantify the smoothness of the accutron's sweep?
>>51656968
They're not all expensive, you just need to be patient AND lucky. Though I guess mine isn't exactly pristine, it does work perfectly though and for the most part it still looks good.
>>51657506
It's only if you want to be really pedantic and say it makes 360 steps per second. Only the spring drive is 'truly' smooth. There's no difference to the naked eye though.

Of course, this is correct.
>>51657501
No I meant Kickstarter. I don't think we have spoken on this before since this is the first time I found out about your blind watch.
What exactly determines the bph of a regular mechanical movement? The number of coils in the hairspring?
>>51657757
correct
>>51657720
I meant looking back on posts like this
>>49598316
Kickstarter has come up a few times.
>>51657757
It's two times the frequency balance wheel and hairspring assembly. Did you watch the video?
>>51657801
Guess I should've been more specific and asked how exactly the balance wheel's frequency is controlled.
>>51656063
It's like your wrist is a cosplayer that you forced to come into the office with you.
>>51653066
There are exactly two reasons to wear an automatic watch:
1) They're a neat feat of mechanical engineering and material production.
2) You'll never get conned by another watch shop over a fucking battery. I replaced a battery after at least six years of use. Three months later, I broke the stem. Took it to a local watch repair guy who quoted me a price. Came to pick it up and he was charging me extra. Why? "The battery needed to be replaced." Bitch, I *just* replaced that six months ago. "You want me put old one back in?"
Fucking service shops are a bunch of con artist fuckwads. Same thing with a cell phone repair place that told me *after* making me sit around for an hour while they repaired something that they were going to charge me instead of honoring the warranty. Same exact response, "you want me to put the old one back in?" Yeah, fucker, I'm going to waste another hour of my time because you don't understand how business transactions work.

>>51657801
>It's two times the frequency balance wheel and hairspring assembly. Did you watch the video?
That means literally nothing, smartass.
>>51657757
The period of a spring driven simple harmonic oscillator is determined by inertia and spring constant. The inertia depends on the total mass and the mass distribution of the balance wheel, and the spring constant depends on the stiffness of the spring. You can regulate a watch by turning the regulator screw which lengthens or shortens the effective length of the spring (changes spring constant) or turning those little screws on the outside edge of the balance wheel which changes the moment of inertia of the wheel. I don't have a good photo on hand but here's a photo of a movement I guess.
>>51658171
The fact that the beats per hour is in a two to one relationship with the oscillations of the balance wheel is not 'literally' nothing, even if that isn't the answer he was looking for.
Actually, after the geometric pattern found on most clovers. I wasn't aware of the girl scout cookie, what's it made of?
>>51655949

I would prefer quartz personally. If it breaks I could swap it in cheaply and the speedmaster doesn't tick unless the chrono is on.
Do you know the movement in particular?
>>51658737
>speedmaster doesn't tick unless the chrono is on.
Did you forget about the running seconds dial on the left or something?
>>51658725
That's really cheap.
Im guessing it's either a quartz or a seagull movement right?
Could you spoonfeed me a link?
>>51655949
Seconding.
>>51658745
yeah I did. But it's a subdial so not a problem for me. I take the seconds hands off my center-seconds watches because they are distracting to me.
Maybe it's a coincidence but the guy's pic has it on 0
>>51658641
What you butthurt about?
>>51657562
I'd wear that. Looking to pick up one from my birth year (83)
I'm thinking about getting one of these. I don't have any watches currently. Thoughts?
>>51658785
>>51658785
Google narikaa, alternatively check any replica forum, he's pretty trusted in the community
>>51658798
Just a coincidence, to be honest it's not that annoying since the hand is so tiny.
>>51659137
How the heck do I buy anything of this guys website?
>https://narikaa.smugmug.com/
Is what I'm looking at
>>51659160
Send him an email to be honest family
Here's a neat angle
>>51659180
Alright
By the way, just how accurate is that snoopy replica to the original anyway?
>>51658789
Nice bagelsport rep you got there.
>>51659180
Ok what's his email?
I can't find it anywhere
Sorry for the spoonfeeding faggotry
>>51659255
The front is very good except for the lume. The back could be better. Strap isn't good at all, but Im replacing it anyway

Thanks
>>51659086
You could do worse.
Just make sure you don't keep it in a drawer.
>>51658789
Where can I buy this?
>>51659086
I bought one and immediately regretted it. Ended up selling it for about 45% of what I paid. It's kind of a shitty watch, really; far too big for sports or everyday wear. Completely silent, though, and looks better than most 45mm stuff out there.
>>51655949
Thats amazing,I have the cash to buy the relica now but I feel guilty even though the real thing is unobtainable.
Thank you mountain jews.

/wt/'s prejudice against replicas is hilarious considering most of these high-quality reps are better than your average Tisell or Bagel in terms of movement and build quality.
>>51660357
I would have bought this if it's 40mm instead of fuckhuge 43mm.
>>51660375
I will probably bite the bullet and buy it at some point in my life when I have more brain than emotions.
I just hope it wont go out out of production.
Also its not fair to bash both of them,they are their own thing i dont have problem with them.
>>51653414
one on the right is a fake
which brands should i look at with a $100-150 budget
>>51660375
Tissel is like one or two faggots posting over and over recently. Bagel is pretty well accepted as extremely low level dogshit. Being better than bagel is not an accomplishment.
What does /g/ think of the watches found on Aliexpress?
>>51660486
alpha, tiger, parnis, pretty much the mid end of chinkshit homages
>>51660584
99% are absolute dogshit. The only quality you will find is some seagull brands
>>51660516
The whole "Korean font kerning tutorial" thing was just dogshit all around. I agree with you
>>51660387
bitch wrists
>>51660584
>>51660658
I disagree. The SOKI field watch is better than the Timex weekender and is much quieter. It's like 2 bucks which is a steal.
SKMEI makes a really nice visodate ripoff too.
>>51660853
how is lume?
Are there any quartz Chronographs under $50 that aren't complete shit?
I'm currently using my casio terrorist as one but I would like an analog
thanks
>>51660853
I wouldn't say it's better Than the weekender. And personally, I enjoy the loud movement.soki is also literally dogshit
>>51660962
Slightly better than Vostok lume
>>51661235
It literally isn't though
which one?

All you need to know is here: http://replica-watch.info/
It really doesn't help that replica sellers not only claim they sell real Rolexes, they still try to fool you on the exact replica model when caught red-handed.
Buying a specific replica model can be a headache.
>>51661303
I know nothing about the movements in those watches. Assuming they are all of the same quality, I would go with no.3 because it has a power reserve indicator and lug width of 20mm, which is good if you want to change straps.
>>51661303
None, because you can get them cheaper on Aliexpress.

>>51660964
Seconded
>>51652469
>tfw I want an Accutron Spaceview, but it would never survive the amount of shock and water I experience every day
Why won't Bulova just keep making these again? Old models still sell like hot cakes, and they could make a ton of money from this, especially if they bring extra waterproofness, shock resistance, a wider choice of models, and countless other things modern watches get.
They made a limited edition rerun already, and now make spaceview quartz watches. Why won't they go the extra mile and just keep making those forever?
>>51662099
This pretty off to be honest. Canal street fakes are too dogshit for Seagull movement
>>51652469
Alright /wt/.
I am not that deep into watches, their maintenance or their usage. Mostly because I couldnt afford good watches. Thankfully that situation will be over soon.
Anyways, for now, I have what I believe is an OK watch. Only problem with it is every once in a while the date falls behind.
It falls behind by a day, then I set it again and it works fine for a while.
Is there anything I can do to fix this permanently? Or am I doing something very wrong?
Its an everyday analog watch me thinks.
>>51662382
Does it lose a day at the end of every two months?
>>51662468
Maybe. I haven't been able to keep exact track of it. I know its more than 2-3 weeks though.
>>51662382
You're not really deep into logic either.
Some months have 31 days, some 30, and february varies between 29 and 28 once in a while. Most watches with a day wheel don't know what month it is, let alone if it's a leap year or not, and simply increase the day by one every day on a 31-day wheel.
Which means that at the end of all less than 30-day months, you need to set it again, just like I did set mine on tuesday considering november had 30 days, and that on tuesday, it incorrectly displayed the 31st of november.
There are two solutions: digital watches, which keep a precise account of time including leap years and which are probably the most perfect solution (there are analog-digital hybrids too which fullful both functions perfectly), and "calendar", or "perpetual" analog watches, which keep track of the month, and for some of leap years too, even if it's only internally and not displayed, and whose date is always correct.
Almost all date-only watches are not perpetual and will lose some days every two months.
>>51662487
Please be bait.
>>51662519
No. Thats defintely not the issue. There have been instances where I set the day and it lost a day before the end of the month.
