if you really get into it with a perpetual calendar, that tells the date to jump on months with 30 days, or take into account the leap year, what you have yourself is an analog computer you can strap to your wrist.

Here's a starting point.
Measure your wrist circumference and/or side to side with a caliper.
Don't get a watch that is too large, don't get a watch that is too fragile to wear, don't get a single watch and think you can use it for sports / physical labour as well as with a suit.
I'd recommend getting something way cheaper to start off with.
Get something with a display back, not open heart / skeleton. If you REALLY must have a skeletonized watch, get a chinkshit for a bit over $10.

To the anon with the SOKI sub: how well does it keep time and is it actually water resistant? I'm looking for a cheap watch to cop because I'm depressed and want something to look forward to

>>51933119
I wouldn't say it's exactly water resistant, since it's made cheaply by chinese. So far it has been keeping the time I set it to, but I've had it less than day so far,. If you want more bang for your buck go for amphibia or seiko, but if you just want cheap mechanical it's probably either this or HMT.

So what if people have a vostock? Everyone starts somewhere and its the entry level of the USSR watch market

You on the other hand probably read the watch snobs articles and act like a big swinging dick when in reality of you had anything like the sort of money it would take to buy one of your 'approved' 'time pieces' you wouldn't still be living in moms basement jacking it to trap threads

I bought it cause I like the look of it, and since Armani is a pretty known brand to anyone, even those who don't know shit about watches like me, it's still recognizable.

Obviously it's not a real watch brand like Omega, Rolex etc but I can't afford them so.

Fashion brand shit made absolutely as cheaply as possible by Fossil with all the parts coming from the lowest bidder and then priced with an enormous markup just because the name slapped on the dial is the recognizable brand name of a store beloved by douchebags everywhere. You could get a watch equally low quality for a few dollars on alibaba or you could spend those 160 bongs to get something immensely higher quality made by an actual watch company that actually gives a shit about only putting their name on quality watches.

IT'S HAPPENING! But what the fuck is up with the lume? Why does it look like some sort of cellophane-wrapped coleslaw dish that's gone bad?

>>51934590
Not happening because Seiko hates money. Of course, if they offered this watch with a chronograph movement that was actually reliable and not a delicate piece of shit, people would be lining up around the corner to get their hands on one.
>>
>>51934833
Seiko, Orient, Vostok, some other brands I just outright forgot and these are for mechanicals only, if you want quartz for that price, the fucking choices are endless like the Seiko, Pulsar, Casio
If you can buy jeans and watch by the same company, it's shit on both

So I'll eventually need to get a spirit lamp for watchmaking shit, but would a Zippo or a butane torch work as well? Opinions /wt/? How much soot do they produce and is lighter fluid and butane around the same temperature as an alcohol spirit lamp?

Also I guess the Zippo would look good on the autismpics of my wrist fedora, I don't have a fancy film camera or a $100 pen.

Vostok, a watch manufacturer in Chistopol, Russia. The most common watches that you'll see from them are the Komandirskie, like pic related, and the Amphibia. Komandirskie is a hand-wind 17 jewel watch with 50m water resistance. It's not big, but it's very nicely made and resilient, goes for $30. Amphibia is a 200m auto-winding dive watch, goes for about $60.
Vostok watches are a great value for the price, and everything that goes into the watch is made in-house by Vostok or Vostok-owned factories in the same city. If they were made anywhere else, they'd probably sell for hundreds of dollars.

1991 was a weird time. The US was pounding Iraq, and the Soviet Union still existed (only in name, really) with relations being so normalized that the USSR actually supported the US in the intervention. So the Soviets decide to make commemorative Vostok Komandirskies for American soldiers taking part in Op. Desert Sheild.

>>51937732
Not bad for the money by any means. It's fairly accurate (about 15 seconds fast/day). It looks pretty decent once you replace the shit bracelet it comes with, but it doesn't feel like it was made out of great materials. the screw down crown is a bit of a pain until you get used to it. All in all, it's a solid watch, and a deal that's really hard to pass up. I usually wear mine at work, and even getting banged on things it doesn't show any wear and hasn't stopped working after a few months.

So I took another look up close at an Omega Aqua Terra today while the staff drooled over ,my 176.0012, and the only thing I couldn't tell for sure was whether the end links are solid or hollow. Based purely on visual inspection with the bracelet on the watch, they appear hollow, but I wanted to double check with the at least one AT owner in /wt/.

Note: The end links on the AT's bracelet, obviously.

Also, for the /wt/er who asked, the shark mesh remains incredibly comfortable. Amongst my favorite bracelets I've ever worn.

the fuck? why is it yellow?

Wait why does everyone hate TGV so much?
His reviews drag on a bit but he has pretty good taste in watches (better than archie at least).
>>
>>51939343
He has no taste in watches, he just praises fucking anything and everything.
>>
>>51939361
Because he like Seiko, Orient and G-shock?
>>
>>51939377
Or literally anything he comes across. This includes swiss, or german, or japanese, or fucking whatever. The worst thing he's said about any watch is "oh well it's not really my thing at least you like it wear it in good health :)" or along those lines.

That doesn't seem so bad to me. Why do they despise him so much?

Is that the 36 or 40mm one? Can I get a link? looks like 36, but all the cheap ones were in rose gold last I looked.
>>
>>51939473
Actually I think it was the 40mm. The link I bought it from just gives a 404 now.
Just search daniel wellington on AE

I got a Pepsi one and the bezel is pretty disappointing. The case is nice. And the bracelet needs to be thrown away on arrival. Also, it didn't fit on my 8inch wrist without squeezing me like a boa constrictor.
>>
>>51939533
don't want a 40mm. too big.
>>
>>51939552
If 40mm is too big for you then maybe you're just a manlet honestly.
50mm is big
45mm is big
40mm isnt big
36mm on a DW would just make it look like a womans watch dude
>>
>>51939585
It's got two thin hands on a plain white face. It doesn't need to be the same size as a submariner.
>>
>>51939540
Why was the bezel disappointing?
>>
>>51939611

Because it was scratched and the inside edges weren't done nicely.
>>
>>51939633
Ah damn
Hope mine comes in better condition. Does the pip line up with 12 at least?

Are bagels actually good or just a meme? I'm a big fan of the food, but I have no experience with the watch

I spent $13 on a decent bezel just on its own and that was fairly cheap overall because the market's geared for rolex owners. Really not surprised a $16 watch has a shit one.
>>
>>51939585
36mm is the size of a rolex datejust. Are the women in your life all ogres and landwhales?
>>

Any differences compared to the soki? I see it doesn't have a cyclops
>>51939688
Don't meme me ninefag. 36mm is small. Nice for a dress watch, but small.
>>
>>51939674
>5000m

Doubt

>>51939713
It's certainly on the more conservative end for men's watches, but far too large for a woman.

A normal sized woman at least.
