If you’re gonna go quartz, I prefer mine made in Japan by the OG’s(Scottie b probably just owns their stock or something, I think they have like 60-70% market share of Swiss watches)
>>62491713That is interesting and incredibly cheap.For me, it’s Grand Seiko
>>62491738tough solar usually has bad side viewing angles. is yours all right?
>>62491713I can see the time on my phone.
>>62491749A proper mechanic watch will outlive you or me. There are WWII pocket watches that are still being serviced today. It’ll retain its value and is more liquid than most assets.No electricity, only uses rotors, gems and the modern peak of mechanical engineering to keep time.I work a job where it’s normal to have a respectable watch, I don’t expect you to understand.
>>62491770I dont need to watch time after i died.
>>62491740Do you feel like the automatic is their best movement to get? Quartz too plain and spring drive too complicated?
>>62491748Ya that must be true, might have to rotate 20-30 degrees from where I could have seen it with a mip display, doesn’t really bother me tho…I’ve heard the Mr-g is better, I want the b5000r-1.
>>62491749I felt that way for a long time…a watch is better
>>62491770>I work a job where it’s normal to have a respectable watch, I don’t expect you to understand.True, slaves have curious mentalities
Tech billionaires running around in t-shirts changed the game for everyone. Stealth wealth is the new flex
>>62492553>Stealth wealth is the new flexIt's the only rational path when every first world social contract is steadily crumbling. Need to be unassuming and alert now.
>>62492553This + high quality fakes (watches, handbags, clothes, etc) becoming easily available to anyone with an internet connection.House, car and boat are the only real flexes left. Luxury (fake) brand products you wear is almost exclusively a thing for poor people now
>>62491787A quartz is silly at these price points, and the Spring Drive is amazing and technically impressive but it WILL eventually fail. Already Grand Seiko's first Spring Drive models from 1999 Seiko will refuse to fix. If a Spring Drive breaks and Seiko they won't fix it, it's a dead watch.Whereas a traditional Mechanical like their Hi-Beat can be fixed by any independent watch maker, they'll create the components if necessary. Same can't be said for the Spring Drive, which is why I and many Japanese prefer their Hi-beat models.Google>The death of the first-ever Spring DriveTo read more about it.
>>62491713For me it's the Omega Speedmaster Pro Ed White edition.
I use the sun and the price of taxi's going to fourways

Mechanical watches are works of art, poorfags will only ever see them as “blingy overpriced garbage” like cars shoes or the newest phone, but mechanical watches are different.Henceforth they usually maintain their value well.
>>62492553this became a thing once jeets and third worlders were repping chanel and gucci
For me it’s Zenith>>62493205Based
>>62492775Thanks, good points, makes sense, I will look into the death of the first spring drive. I heard they are top heavy and don’t wear well.As far as not fixing them, this is interesting. I heard the Japanese do not consider original material to be sacred, but the form i.e. they don’t care about a house lasting forever, they will rebuilt it in the same configuration, to them this is the same thing as something lasting forever if that makes sense.I feel like if it was a good watch and it put in a good life of service…I would have the watch framed and put on my wall and buy a new one.
I got some sort of Casio solar watch as recommended to me by either /k/ or /out/
for me it's the humble seiko
>>62495396apple watch is also good when feeling fancy
>>62495400Grim
>>62495396>>62495400Bro, not to be an asshole but wtf is wrong with your swallow feets? My gramps used to have the same shit at his 80's and he did a brain seizure before dying at 84 of an heat attack.Not to make you worry but your first concern should not be flexing on material stuff but check on your health ASAP.Shit, you got me genuinely concerned for your health fucko.
>>62495400Mr. Dubs your feet are completely fucked. Why are you not wearing compression socks?>>62495414He is in all likelihood a couch potato and his veins are no longer able to properly circulate the blood back up to his heart, so it pools in his feet instead.
>>62495414It’s called heart failure
>>62495396>>62495400
>>62495400kek
>>62495439>>62495446That's what I thought, thanks for validating my concerns and my (not) medical viewpoint.Bro need to start crossing his legs in the air and start to do some walking before a medical student steal his seiko while putting a sharpie in his deadass pooper.
>>62495414bit of a sunburn nowt to worry about
>>62495465they were much worse before
>>62495414Swollen feet are a sign of heart disease. Guy is a walking corpse.
this nigga wearin a diaper lmao
>>62495400did you enjoy wimbledon anon?
What the fuck is wrong with you /biz/
>>62492572This is correct.>>62492553Actual wealth is largely vilified in the US. You really can't just wear a suit in poorish areas
