PERFECTION
2ND BEST WATCH DESIGN IN THE WORLD
>>53597835
>52mm defacto lug to lug
:^(
>>53597994
The lug to lug is 48mm, what are you talking about?
>>53597835
What's the first?
>>53598068
Solid endlinks flaring out.
While it's 48mm the lugs are so beefy it wears bigger and looks silly on <6.8ish" wrists.
>>53598069
The 36mm version?
>>53598097
Just get a 116000 :^)
>>53598093
The endlinks are curved though, wouldn't really make it seem that large. It being 39mm in diameter and 48mm lug to lug are more important.
>>53598118
>crown on 12 instead of the triangle
>>53597835
Give me a design that doesn't have/ over 50 useless characters shitting up the dial for statusfags and we'll talk

I want a watch. I need a new watch.
For 500$ what should I go with?
ETA 2824-2 or 6R15?
>>53598702
Honestly, and I'm normally an incorrigible Seiko shill, but I would probably take an ETA 2824-2 over a 6r15c at that price point if I could find it cased in a watch I actually liked.
Problem is any decent ETA 2824-2 powered watches I've seen are well above that price point.
>>53598795
It's basically Steinhart vs SARB/SARX series for me
>>53598938
I would SARB then, but I'm not into homages and particularly not oversized homages, and most particularly not submariner homages.
Just not to my taste, but from what I've seen and read the quality seems fine for the price.
>>53597835
The first explorer was perfection.
The new one looks uninspired and increasing the numerals and adding that chinky bling border just ruins all the aesthetic and proportions of the dial.

He is obviously on a restricted budget so if he buys one he won't be able to service it and will have a really nice vintage paper weight.
Do you guys accept digital watches as well? Or do I have to have analog to be accepted?
>>53599469
g shocks are cool
>>53599469
Sure, show off your Zeitwerk
>>53599464
I never serviced mine, and it runs well. You have to make sure you get one in good condition, so there is some luck involved.
>>53599469
This is a curious point. I really like how cool some mechanicals are, especially ones where you can see the insides and how cool the engineering is. Analog gears moving tend to bother the shit out of me though with the noise.
I also prefer the functionality of a Pebble over a simple analog watch.
Doesn't mean mechanicals aren't super interesting though.
>>53599488

If I would be smart man, I would just ignore your post. But I am not.
How's that battery life, buddy? How many years?
>>53599927
Technology is not only about functionality. Mechanical watches are technology for the sake of technology at this point. The appeal of a mechanical watch is in the movement, and having an autonomous machine on your wrist. For people on /g/, aesthetics are usually second.
>>53599927
Nice power reserve.
If you genuinely don't see any other points to mechanical watches, objectively good / useful or not, you genuinely belong in the /fa/ thread.

Nigger, I understand that you like your fucking smartwatch. Too fucking bad it has OS on it. Too fucking bad it needs more energy than mine. It is not for me. I am happy with my Highgear AXIO Max.

Watch bloggers have lately finally figured out what a macro lens is, but they have yet to figure out what a microfiber cloth is. Every goddamn high res watch shot on those blogs is always full of dust and lint and smudges and shit, I guess I'm the only one autistic enough to notice. I know it's incredibly tedious to actually fix up macro product shots completely perfectly and I usually halfass it too, but I'm also not running a professional looking shilling website that gets thousands of views.

Is the Steinhart Racetimer too much a blatant copy?
>>53602117
Not so much a blatant copy as is it a shitty copy that missed the mark. While the Tudor has a really unique and sporty look (sort of this preppy retro that reminds be of 70s tennis and very short basketball shorts), it is also pretty clean and legible, partly because it uses a rotating bezel to work as an hour indicator for the chronograph, making it only a 2 subdial chrono but has chrono seconds, minutes and hours.
Meanwhile the steinhart made it look much more gadgety and busy. They took the design of a 3k Tudor, changed a bunch of things, and made what looks to be a 350 dollar watch and then they charge 1k for it.

Servicing vintage chronographs typically runs $250+ USD, the bigger issue is to investigate that specific movement and understand if it has any known weaknesses, what they are, and how expensive to fix.
Plus how easy and expensive it will be to source donor movements for parts.

There's a reason they are recommended.
Now it's time to consider what kind of slav watch do i want next.
I just woke up from a dream where i had a reverso and some special edition speedmaster.
I'm literally dreaming about watches. Send help
Looking at the different movement types: when a high grade mechanical watch can lose precision +/- 2 seconds a seconds a day, but quartz is +/- 10 seconds per year, am I crazy to want a quartz? Is mechanical just some pissing contest?
>>53604831
I like the color combination, but why are you wearing it on your hand instead of your wrist?
Good afternoon wt
It needs a new strap i know
Get a Rolex, poorfags.
>>53601900
>Want black SARB
>See pictures like this
>Now want white SARB
>Then I sway back again
Fuck which one do I buy?
>>53604974
More or less. It's up to your personal preference, a lot of mechanical enthusiasts do so because of the novelty of an entirely gear-and-spring device.
I personally wear an autoquartz (pic related): accuracy of a quartz movement combined with the convenience of a battery free system.
There's a definite appeal to mechanicals, especially given the proliferation of smartphones, so you'll always have an accurate clock on hand.
>>53604985
Because my large wristbone makes it look a little funny, but i kept the perlon a little loose as well since it's still not completely soft.
>>53605006
Depends on your collection.
If you have mostly dark dialed watches, or just just prefer light dialed watches then get the 035, otherwise get the 033.
>>53604974
The marvels of the cogs and wheels mostly.
Though If you're buying a watch only for accuracy, then a simple digital Casio usually would suffice in most cases.
>>53605039
It might have to do with lens distortion, but it looks 2big4u.
>>53604932
How many times a week?
>>53604974
10s/y is high end quartz. But yeah. Mechanicals aren't about accuracy (besides those that are about the highest possible accuracy within mechanicals), they're about being damn neat. A tiny machine made mainly out of gears with like 99.99997% accuracy in displaying time you wear on your wrist feels different to something electronic. Not all technology is electronic. Muh vintage cars vs Tesla.

Don't you already have like a dozen low end watches?

Are you the guy with one Vostok and a bunch of chink watches by any chance?
>>53605155
Well I have the alpha, a marina militare (I literally only bought this for the movement), an amphibia and a timex chrono for rugged situations.
The rest is dogshit I got for less than 20 bucks total so they don't count.
I'm thinking of getting the SARB as a gift to myself if I get into grad school, and that'll round off my poorfag collection until I can afford a used reverso or speedy.

>>53605006
Here's a little help: It's not white, it's an ugly cream (this is more visible in some photos than in others). I usually prefer white over black but in this case black is way nicer than the cream imo.

They're both gorgeous. Hence why I'm having so much trouble deciding.

What's the go to store I can order from in europe? My top priority is reliability because Im about to drop 1000eur on a watch and it would really suck if something went wrong at one point. Also it has to have a decent range of products to choose from.

Any authorized dealer IRL or european seller with good ranking on Chrono24 (probably like 30% cheaper than AD even with discounted list price)
>>53605385

>>53605431
Uh i saw chrono24 but I didnt think it was actually reputable/known. Thanks
>>53605446
Actually I like filtering out the watches by availability, then price, then looks, then I would come here for advice. I like nearly every watch posted in this thread.
>>53605464
Lot's of options.
Seiko has a lot of current and vintage models.
The Orient Star line has a few really lovely looking ladies models.
>>53604974
When it comes to precision, you're right. Now there are other factors.
Mostly, the key aspect is that the highest quality, best looking watches you can get are mostly mechanicals. Because a mechanical movement is more expensive than quartz, it makes sense to raise the quality bar as opposed to quartz. Plus mechafags are also the biggest buyers of expensive watches, and they want nothing else than mechanicals. Normies rarely put over $500 in a watch anyway, so there's no reason to make high quality, good looking quartz, and as such the selection is really small.
Now there's a good deal of irony, those people they generally claim to appreciate watchmaking and technology, but remain hermetic to quartz technology, they claim they appreciate quality and make fun of /fa/ggots buying fashion watches whose only purpose is to look good, but then buy watches with less accurate, less reliable movements despite being way more expensive, and whose only purpose in the end is to look good. As long as it doesn't have a battery.
Then there's the roleplaying surrounding watches: watchfags generally like a certain watch because their role model had one, or because it helps them identify to a moment in history or category of people which they don't belong to, and most of those watches happen to be mechanicals. They wear those watches because of what it says about them, even though most people actually don't get it. It's basically an elaborate form of cosplaying.
Now there are other reasons, but these are the main ones you'll run into, whether here or elsewhere.
>>53605464
Has she ever talked about watches with you? If it's a gift you just buy them whatever you think they want
>>53605502
>they claim they appreciate quality and make fun of /fa/ggots buying fashion watches whose only purpose is to look good, but then buy watches with less accurate, less reliable movements despite being way more expensive
We shit on /fa/ggots for paying 100$+ for stuff like MVMT and Daniel wellingtons, which are cheap 5~10$ chink watches that were marked up in price to allure people who don't know better to buy them. Let's not forget they come with questionable QC, crap quality and the cheapest quartz movements possible. (Which sometimes have worse accuracy then mechs, but that might need more a bit more digging into it)
And also the regular gaudy shit looking Fossil/Swatch/Etc that's literal bait tier.

- Vostok Amphibia/Komandirskie, possibly vintage model
Any additional suggestion?

>It has a numeric display.
You're making this up on the spot because you don't know what "digit" in digital refers to.
>>53610862
>I find this is a better definition
That first definition refers to a signal. Like a digital signal, it does not refer to a display using digits or not using digits.
>>53610862
Digital as in digits which are numbers. Digital electronics are called that because they operate on two numbers, 0 and 1 instead of fuzzy values like analog electronics. A digital watch shows numbers instead of a clock face, it doesn't matter if it's electronic or not.

That's what you get for buying mainly chinkshit.
But you know what's the next step in the poorfag train don't ya?
>>53611314
>I didn't know that the 'digital' in digital watches were referring to the display
see this post >>53609273
>Quite literally took it from ALS' own website.
Pic related. All you have to do is 'literally' read their own website.
>>53611365
I find dressy watches boring. I'd much rather have a watch like the alpha that can be dressed up and down.
Also I bought a column wheel chrono for less than 200 bucks. Thats pretty damn good.
What do you mean by next step?
What's the best and fastest way to learn how to repair and service a watch? Is there a go to manual? I'm Italian but I can use an English manual if it's worth it.

Depends on where you want to go with your collection.
Usually it's either a SARB meme, Ray meme, Shtrumanskie or export 3133, or Penisquartz meme.
Plus what i'm trying to promote, vintage Swiss or Jap watches.
>>53611380
And >>53609273 is not correct.
This is not a correct general definition. Digital does not only refer to displays.
>Pic related. All you have to do is 'literally' read their own website.
And I did. Literally. In German. Where it doesn't say digital, but numerical. Which is why I said "numerical" in my posts. I didn't "make it up".
Why are you so obnoxious? I already admitted my mistake.
I'm not going to bother responding to you anymore.
Have a nice day.
>>53611478
Its probably gonna be a sarb. After that ill be shooting for either a speedy or a reverso.

>And >>53609273 is not correct.
>This is not a correct general definition. Digital does not only refer to displays.
The context of the conversation was watches, you pinhead.
>>53611534
see >>53610862
>I can see they have a specific definition for clocks/watches
Which is why I already admitted my mistake. Jesus.
ITT: German doesn't understand English, and proceeds to argue with people that they're wrong and don't know what a digit watch is
>>53611523
Fair enough.
But don't only go for the mahm on da fackin moon variant of the speedy. Keep in mind that some of the various versions are pretty nifty, and can be a lil cheaper.
>>53611600
Digital has the same meaning in German though
Can I add some fuel to the fire?
>>53611600
ITT: People keep discussing a subject on which both parties now agree. And an obnoxious tripfag.
>>53611600
ITT: People who keeps shitting on a guy who already admitted his mistake
>>53611683
>>53611686
>waiting until you reach the bottom of a thread to reply
>>53611673
Then why are you so confused about what digital means. And why when you see someone post something you think is wrong you spread misinformation instead of doing any sort of checking?
>>53611757
>Bottom of a thread
There's still 100 replies to go, anon.
And I don't understand your.. Is it an insult? I'm not sure.
>>53611761
I'm not the guy, I didn't even read most of your autistic conversation. Just a random swissfag stopping by.
>>53611791
the bottom of the thread is wherever the latest post is, dumbass.. are you the guy that thought a digital watch wasnt digital too?
>>53611266
why isn't she moving
is she dead
anyway. what watch?
>>53611814
Why are you calling me a dumbass?
Did I insult you in any way?
No I'm not that guy, but can you please explain your insult before to me? I don't quite understand it - What's bad about reading the whole conversation before replying?
>>53611653
My pick of the current speedmaster lineup would probably be the FOIS.
>>53611857
fag fag gay bitch cunt nigger
>>53611857
it's not an insult toward you.. it's satirical commentary on two people wasting time calling out others for not reading the whole thread before replying and thus continuing the stupid conversation
>>53611805
>swissfag
I see. All this swiss and German shitposting is really fucking this thread
funny to see you people debating over something everyone already agreed with
>>53611885

Why is /g/ such an aggressive and hostile board?
I'm a newfag to /g/, but an old regular on /a/, but everybody is much nicer on /a/.
>>53611925
i like naruto
>>53611925
maybe if you weren't such a bitch people would treat you better
>>53600188
Good day to you
>>53611925
Yeah, unless you want any sort of source, or dare to ask a question in the buyfag thread.
>>53611945
Does your second hand not have lume?
>>53602592
Fuck hamilton haters I love that watch. I want one so bad as well as the khaki king
>>53611868
>First Omega in Space
kek, my sides are in prep to launch into orbit.
Did they really re-release such a model?
I'd rather get fucking pic related and go "HEY KEKMEGA FUCKERS, GUESS WHAT KIND OF WATCH WAS FIRST IN SPACE?E"
>>53611925
As usual.
/wt/ is also usually a lilmore aggressive then any regular on /g/.
>>53611956
I don't think people are bad in buyfag threads. Not my experience at least. They mostly refer new people to the OP since there's a guide and such. Nothing wrong with that.
There's more than 1 board dedicated to requests, and they are also being removed by mods. They are not allowed on /a/.
>>53611941
Nice people treat me nice because I'm not offensive or hostile. Offensive and hostile people treat all people like shit. Like you.
Stop it, anon. You can still change.
>>53611939
Glad to hear it. Not my cup of tea, though.
>>53611901
Sure, it's us ruining the thread.
Btw you forgot your trip, friend.
>>53611945
How are you doing brother?
>>53611995
>Did they really re-release such a model?
Yeah. The name is dumb and all, and I don't like the whole "moonwatch" thing (they literally use fucking "moonwatch" as a word in all their stuff, wtf).
But the actual FOIS model is pretty nice.
>>53611416
Anyone?
Come on, you're telling me you can't answer that?
>>53612016
>I don't think people are bad in buyfag threads
Delusional. Just as bad as here if not worse.
>>53611901
>All these people from nations with actual watchmakers are ruining the watch threads
ok.
>>>/k/ is that way, america.
>>53612073
It's neither easy nor fast to learn how to repair or service watches.
>>53611925
Hi, fellow /a/non.
>>53612073

Might take less than a month.
>>53612076
>Delusional.
See what I'm talking about? I didn't offend you in any way, and immediately you deem me delusional. And why did you keep shitting on a guy who kept admitting his mistake? You're part of the problem, NineBall. Given, he was maybe not the brightest, but at least he owned up to his mistake.
Can you not speak to me, or other anons, without saying anything negative about them?
You should be nicer to people.
>Just as bad as here if not worse.
Well, that's not my experience so far.
>>53612108
Hey, /a/non.
>>53612059
I'm not delusional about it looking good (since it kinda does), but the light marketing ploy behind it is kek worthy.
>>53612091
I said fastest, not fast.
>>53612140
What watch you wanna get next?
>>53605785
How much? Orient has a few watches that look like that and cost around 120 or so
>>53612181
>What watch you wanna get next?
Don't really know. I don't a very big budget, at the moment.
I would like to save up and get a Sinn or the like, just not possible in my current situation.
How about you?
>>53612113
How does that work? Is it telematic?
>>53605785
i like that decoration on the date wheel
>>53612031
At work until 9 but 3 days off then so can't complain.
I want another watch.
>>53612224
I don't have a budget. If I get a job I'll get a an skx007 and a sarb, I wish I could get this one. Then I want a vintage Omega/Zenith from the 40's-60's, maybe with a nice gold case.
>>53601956
Is it hard to make amphibian look like this? Stock one looks really ugly.
>>53605785
That model in the pic looks liky any chinese, classic themed ebay watch with an open heart.
Raping a dial with a hole, to show some gears is the watch companies desperate try to grab any attention from a watch pleb.
And the rest of their watches is probably too overpriced for the boring design.
>it's a boutique brand with a history, long gone
>>53612325
Bezel? Yes.
Hands? No.
>>53612325
Changing the bezel and insert is piss easy.
Though, you'd need to pain the hands to make them look like this.
>>53605851
What model is this? It has a very decent blue color that looks like it won't peel after 3 years.
>>53611995
That's not the first watch in space either.
>>53612325
It's not hard.
>>53612362
It's just the normal hands painted orange. Pretty sure they were not taken off for this mod.
