This thread is for the discussion of affordable watches, vintage, clomage, replicas, straps, and modifications.Old sticky: https://imgur.com/a/NFMXDuKLast thread: >>18608752
>>18621759I did return it. I've since decided paying extra for your ethereal "ethos" and "identity" is a bonehead move when those vague ideas come at the cost of decent materials. You don't even dispute that because you know it's the case. All the watch experts you guys look to to justify your love of overpriced "luxury" watches have acknowledged China's rise in dependable, spec superior, and now even original design watches. You're ONLY paying for the names at this point. And that's fine. Do it if you must. You may find a watch that carries the prestige the way you want from a Jomashop. I just don't care to wear Seiko or Citizen branded watches.
>>18621759And this $63 Cadisen is a very similar design to the Seiko 5 I had to return. It's the same size and color, has a comparable movement, better crystal, better bracelet. $80 cheaper for a better watch. But it's not called "Seiko", is it? That's the only downside there. I guess you guys live in fear of someone seeing your watch and then asking more about it and having to tell them some embarrassing name and then they point and laugh and never respect you again.Only on the internet would such a thing happen. Anyone who really knows watches upon inspecting it would conclude that it's got better specs than the Seiko and looks about the same. I used to be just like you, but I was in 5th grade and it was Nike Air shoes that were all-important. If your parents took you to the 'Shoe Source" and got you generic shoes, lol, god help you at school. Cruel bastards. I had to beg and cry for the entry level Nike Airs, not even a visible air bubble. But I squeaked in under the wire. They couldn't make fun of my shoes. Since becoming a man I don't think that way anymore. There's no playground wiseacre who can destroy my reputation by making fun of something I'm wearing.
>>18615193Only 17mm thin!
>>18621784Seiko's low end options really are complete shit
>>18621784What a tacky loser, you don't know shit. Worthless advice

>>18621862/pol/ guys are very frail and mentally undeveloped. Just seeing "the black guy" at work sends them into an internal tizzy.
>>18622003>>18621709I’m also not shilling Parkhurst. I’m shilling Whites, franks, etc where you can get sized by employees and they build you a boot to your specifications or they can alter a last to your feet.
>>18622012All that to wait 6 months for the boot and it STILL doesn't fit, not to mention the stitching will be bad, the heels will be uneven, etc. Why bother?
>>18622031Return it. I returned my fucked up White's. That's why they have that section on their website, not everyone is a cuck who accepts fucked up custom orders. >oh but they won't take itI said they could return it on I'd charge it back, they accepted the return after trying to get me to just keep it. Never bought White's again, switched to Frank. Everything I've gotten from him has been superb. >just wait six monthsMore like three, but if you can't wait that's on you. Buy off the shelf like a pleb.

>>18621424Don't post that shit here. That's not a watch.
>>18613479Omega works well enough for some, especially those who see James Bond as the epitome of a man.You're right about GS though; they are pure cope (even though spring drive is a cool movement).
Imagine all the waste that those awful seconde seconde collabs are generatingPerfectly fine watches desecrated by some stupid emoji face to make a quick buck from that guy's short time in the spotlightPretty much the opposite of what a mechanical watch should be
>>18576142Which one should I buy?Casio A120WE‑1AVT Casio A130WE‑1A Casio A500WGA-9DF
I'm looking for a modern equivalent of one of these omega cushion case day date watches. What is the closest thing I can get, preferably without spending a lot of money if possible?
How would people dress if Germany had won?
>>18619492I think you would've had a lot of strict and formal fashion, like mod meets military / techwear stuff in the short term. Braun and the like were pretty iconic so you might've ended up with a big minimalism thing and arrived at apple-core aesthetics 40 years earlier. White history is kind of loathed now but i'd think you'd have larper aesthetics with neo-pagan and Jute retro fashion, a kind of germanic specific classicism
>>18621436>fascism wasn't against the free marketGermany was national socialist, not fascist, and a planned economy, not a free one
>>18619900I'm partial to fascism myself but Trump and his cronies are a horribly inept and corrupt bunch to get behind
>>18621959This, he doesn't go far enough and he got bought out by ''''them''' anyway. We should be deporting everybody and their descendants who has immigrated since 1965
>2 colognes I don't care for / will never use. >A pocket watch I don't care for / will never use.>Shirt doesn't fit / not my style>Pants I need to be return>Hammock - no use for (I own 1 already)>Socks, given to brother because they are neon colors>Sweatshirt I need to return, too small, polyester>Another shirt - need to return, uglyThank you family yet again for a bunch of garbage I have no use for and a bunch of niggerslopshit clothes made of plastic I'd rather never touch. I am maybe the most defined person in my family, have a unique job, unique interests, etc and yet I get useless slop garbage every year. Strangers on /k/ got me cooler gifts than my own family. Not a single piece of clothing relevant to my career or style, much less something that fits well. My mother patted herself on the back for it too. What about you guys? I hope some of you made out with some interesting exciting gifts. Let me enjoy the season vicariously through you please.
>>18619953> Not a single piece of clothing relevant to my careerLife hack; collect T-shirt’s from trade shows. Especially if they’re partnership companies or companies of brands you stock… HR can’t say shit and it saves you so much money on pissing away clothes for work Also the black baggy Uniqlo airism shirts look kinda casual but you can just go to the gym and lift in them after and hold up wellI work in an office setting and I get away with t shirts and fake slacks (hiking pants or cycling pants) Another bonus of wearing a tshirt in an office setting is that if visitors come walking through the office either partners or clients They ignore you. But if you wear a button up they follow you around and keep asking you to take them where they need to go , ask where the bathroom is or if they can have water or show them around until their appointment I’m a sales manager and I avoid a lot of unnecessary bullshit this way and let my subordinates handle the tire kickers Comment too long.

Happy to say I returned as much as I could. Only got 1/2 credit at Kohl's because I wasn't given receipts. Got 6 pairs of gold toe socks, and at Macy's got a pair of dress pants for 40% off. I also got some more stick candles for my candelabra. Overall a much better assortment of items than polyester hoodies that don't fit me.
>>18621565Kohls is such an abomination
>>18619953My wife got me some classic fit j crew chinos and a new mug. Pretty much the best Christmas ever.
>>18621592How much was the new mug and is she prettier now
hello,I recently managed to save up $89,000. Which are currently sitting inside my bank at a decent 3.6% APY.With that amount of money in the side for emergency, I am finally comfortable in buying something more up-market and, say, "Luxury" if you will to praise myself in a way for my effort and hard work. A Reminder of said work if you will.Because of the aforementioned humble $89,000 in saving, I can comfortably afford something between the $150-200 range. I've been eyeing some Seiko's but if you have something better in mind, please let me know. I'm very new to watches.If absolutely necessary, I can stretch my budget all the way to $250 as well.
>>18622023Maybe it's an image from ebay and they think you're trying to sell your watch here. That's honestly all I can think of. It's just a pic though and you're not selling it so who knows.
>>18613989>a few hundred dollarsPffft!Why don't you buy a rolex?
>>18622049Rolexes are boring.
>>18622051Sounds like someone's "poor". You MUST like Rolex. And you must respect "glah-shoo-tah". Don't you understand anything? You have to get a name watch for the "brand ethos". LOLOld fat Swiss men DIED to bring you this time-honored tradition of overpriced horseshit.

Cormac McCarthy is a hell of a writer, capable of making thinspo out of cats:>When he came up the cat squared off at him, a starved and snarling thing with the hackles reared along its razorous spine. It did not let go the fish. Suttree threw a rock at it. The cat’s ears lay flat along its head and its tail kept jerking. He threw another rock that caromed off its stark ribs. It dropped the fish and yowled at him, still crouched there cocked on its bony elbowstfw ywn be a bony catgirl.
>>18621499You sound like a mentally ill tranny

How do grown ass men in their 30s film themselves dressing up like this for a video and not think, "Wow this is gay and cringe as fuck"? How do people actually do it? I'm genuinely shocked.
>>18621211Why do grown ass men in their 30s care about what some random guy's opinion on the internet so much? This is just pathetic.
This guy jumping at the clothes is funny and whimsical, lighten up and enjoy the miracle of life for a single second in your life jeez...
>>18621000anon discovered the word "performative" and hasn't stopped spamming it since
>>18620961Because they are gay
>>18620966>you know, he/she might be an attention-hungry whore sacrificing his/her dignity, but he has "ad revenue" and "fans" bro, just become a male e-girl because if your society is ravaged by indecency you should lean into it instead of opposing it
What causes girls to look so old at 22yo?
>>18622024Most likely a combination of excessive makeup tanning an incredibly shitty diet surgery sedentary lifestyle and more. Or at least for American women
>>18622024too much makeupnot enough sleeptoo much partyingnot enough sleeptoo much makeup
>>18622024Holy shit, is that REALLY the same person who played El on Stranger Things? Now 21 years old? Hot damn she looks like shit for her age. I'm almost 30 and not even particularly baby faced and she looks much older than me.
>>18622043So you don't see any wrinkles either, "sweatie"(?). I didn't think you had an argument and you don't. No skin has been destroyed here. You're dumb.
>all these muh makeup replies when celebrities are bogging themselves at 20 these dayslol you guys are dumb as shit. OP is a balding 30 something who hates youth. notice his previous thread >>18621777

>>18622034It doesn't smell like straight up gasoline, it just has hints of it. Imagine a floral, natural, gasoline. Go to the store and sample it even if the new ones are not as nice as the vintage.
My morning scent was YSL L'Homme Libre, very mild and gentle but it just nice and relaxing even if it doesn't last long. It's like a breath of fresh air ofter some heavier scents, like a light fluffy snack after a big meal.
>>18622034I tried that one today, didn't really find it super interesting to be honest... you'll just have to check it out in person
>>18622032I've never been mistaken for gay in my entire life, if anything, women usually think I get a lot of other women (I don't, at least not nowadays)The last girl I was very interested in (and she was interested in me for a long time) rejected me because she was super paranoid about me fucking other girlsSo whatever, gay it up, I could wear pink thong and it won't hurt me at all
This review is about your favorite women's frag.
moids, why wont you grow sideburns? i swear they're so hot, but so few have them that i can hardly prove it
Is this appropriate for a work dinner?
>>18622045Sir, YWNBAW.
>>18622045if you pull the bottom of the dress down all the way instead of hiking it up like a streetwalker, it's probably okay.
>>18622045Women today don't care what's 'appropriate' they will dress like a whore in any situation they can.
