>>18172582The creators of /wt/ are very.. let's say, "special". They cannot understand sticking around in a thread past the bump limit on a slow moving board, even though I've tried to explain it to them. Literally every other general on the site does this, yet /wt/ cannot figure it out. One guy in particular goes "NEW THREAD???" as soon as the thread hits bump limit even though it's on page 1.Watch people, what can you say?
>>18172683>>18172693These would be perfect if not for that date window.
Why is it so perfect bros?
>>18172722
My rolex AD are fucking assholes that will probably never sell me a watch if I'm being honest, but in order to go around them I'd have to go to a boutique that sells used watches almost 2 hours away. And yeaj, on the watch itself I'd probably end up saving a little money, and might arguably even get a better watch, but the used watches are so goddamn far away I can't just pop in and browse what they have whenever. It'd be so much easier if my local dealer 15 minutes from my house with an in store watchmaker and the whole 9 wasn't a bunch of shit bags that want to get me to buy a couple frederique constants and orises before they'll allow me the HONOR of buying a datejust or explorer for retail price.
Don't forget to let the janitors know when yoi see users evading bans or spamming.
>>18172808But if the watch general isn't always getting bumped to the top of the front page the rest of /fa/ won't constantly see previews of their avatar watches. It's about spamming those avatars to as many people as possible.
>>18172834They don't do shit.
>>18172815No date homages superior
>>18172770Well, not a proper photograph, but rather a quick snap I just took of the watches I've been wearing these last couple of rainy days. (Plus the Lange, that I'm gonna wear to an important meeting today.)>>18172799Thanks, m8.
Wouldn't it be cool if there was a chart of watch brands from consumer to ultra luxury, something like that would be the best chart.
>>18172852Fuck. I just realized it focused on the couch, not the watches.>>18172853LOL Please, not again.
>>18172852Do people notice and/or talk to you about your watches?
>>18172858Sooner or later most people eventually notice I'm wearing a different watch every day. Some comment on the style, or the material/color of the strap but that's it. And it's the way I prefer it. Very few, however, had recognized a specific watch/brand, like the Lange, the AP, the Speedmaster or the Breguet. When this happens, we end up talking a bit more about watches, but I always try to evade the topic of the amount of money they cost. And yes, four of five times it's a man that notices, women tend to pay attention in other things, like ties, shoes, jackets, even pens, etc...
>>18172684A mechanical dress watch with a black metal bracelet that you want to use for fishing? Are you sure?
>>18172865Why don't you want people to know what they cost? Is it because they're your clients and they'll wonder why they're paying you so much?
>>18172852>>18172865how many watches you own?
>>18172871kek he sounds like he wants a dive watch
>>18172865>but I always try to evade the topic of the amount of money they cost.Why?
>>18172874>>18172886Because frankly the amount of money some watches are worth is fucking insane. I'm not ashamed of spending my own money, but I'm not expecting others to understand my obsession. Plus, if I tell people x watch that I'm wearing costs +10k USD or waaaay more, I'm probably gonna get stabbed one day. >>18172878A bit north of 70, not sure.

>>18172971i probably prefer the more subtle color schemes and designs of the other models but you generally cant go wrong with casio
>>18172957but rolex does not make this (a sub in purple), or if they do my google is shit because i cant find it

>>18172722>mfw Steeldive lume
>>18173015What are yoi talking about specifically, are you talking about the vintage submariners that were made to be black but who's dials due to age and defects in the manufacturing process have discolored to purple? Those are known and very desirable to collectors, there are some daydates that had champagne colored dials that have faded to purple as well, but to my knowledge they never actually manufactured purple subs.
>>18173022Look forward to the day the lume falls out of the bezel numbers and you can't get the shitter fixed. Give it a year or so.
White Boy Summer
>>18172852That's a beautiful Panerai
>>18173031I think they were vintage GMT Masters where the red part of the bezel turned purple over time
>>18173031OK when I googled it brought up this company: https://goldsmithandcomplications.com/products/luxury-watch-rolex-submariner-date-41-customized-purple-dialWhich upon further reading looks like it is a custom job. I have seen something called a 'Joker' on chrono24, like a purple faced dial with blue bezel. Any recs for a purple dialed diver?
I don't know how you guys wear these stainless steel watches. Everyone's eyes are instantly drawn to my watch, and not in a good way, they're not impressed, the chain is just so shiny and reflective. I even tried soaking it in vinegar for a few days to fade it and it came out practically sparkling.Am I just new and it's normal for everyone's eyes to dart towards your watch?

Wearing my old Seamaster beater today. Hope all of you are well.
>>18173155Good watch, you fag, good watch.
>>18173155I don't get why Omega doesn't still just make classic shit like this.
>>18173155Cool
>>18173164Because the average modern watch consumer only wants big beefy sports watches.
>>18173164MOON AND 007
>>18173169Yeah but everything they make now is just the main line beefy sports watches and the 12 limited edition runs of the tjose same watches every year. Instead of 12 speedmaster limited runs can't they do like, 6 speedmaster limited runs and a run of c-case constellation day dates? Just give people something that isn't a speedmaster or a seamaster for a change.
>>18172683don't think there's anything better than it
>>18173164I quite like the Constellation Globemaster but they are delusional with their pricing.
>>18173214They're delusional with most of their pricing. The aquaterras are nowhere near the quality of the OPs datejusts and explorers but they're around the same retail price category. It's retarded.
>>18173177Omega has been shitting out Seamaster 300 and Speedmaster for decades now and the demand is still high. That means low manufacturing costs and fat margins on these models. Omega also belongs to the Swatch Group, which is the mother company of niche brands like Blancpain, Breguet, Glashutte Original, etc. There's a high probability these brands are unprofitable.tl;dr: Omega is the milk cow of the Swatch Group and the reason why Breguet is still in business.
I wish I could afford a JLC or breguet :(
>>18173223>nowhere near the quality of the OPs datejusts and explorersIn what way?

>>18173269i mean this unironically as both a person who hates doc martens but also enjoys watchesi cant imagine a single outfit where doc martens and a fancy watch work well together
>>18173269No, I like them and they look sexy on me.
>>18173268Tudor Blackshield.
>>18173271just get actual shoes pleaselike the thing isyou want a 5000 dollar watch or whatever, but your shoes are the literal definition of being a poorfagno matter what you do, your outfit will never look coordinated
>>18173280Made in England Docs are anything but cheap dude. Maybe if you get the shitty Asian ones then yeah.>>18173272Not bad, I quite like the red version. Vampire vibes. That would go well with my outfits. Too bad they seem discontinued.
>>18173270>i cant imagine a single outfit where doc martens and a fancy watch work well togetherRolex, IWC, Panerai, Breitling, can't imagine a watch that wouldn't work with them if it was any kind of a "tool" watch.
>>18173281made in england docs suck toothe only real upside of docs is that they are lightweight shoes that work well for everyday tasks, but it also means they wear down incredibly quicka premium lightweight shoe that wears down quick sounds like it should be easy to repair and maintain, and thats when you get to the heat welding memelookif you can spend 5k on a watch, maybe just make sure the rest of your wardrobe is up to parsome watch fags dont like to hear it, but getting an expensive watch wont make up for an otherwise low quality outfit
>>18173286Alright but here's the deal, I like my Docs and I'm gonna keep wearing them. M'kay? Thanks. Also, I'd be very interested in what you think to be an expensive shoe if MIE Docs are cheap. What the fuck do you wear (in similar, military boot style)? I have expensive shoes for the office but I'm not gonna walk around the city in $1000 shoes for the office and suit. They're perfect for city streets and more casual rock style.Btw, if you use conditioning cream + mirror polish (I have both from Saphir) that makes them look much much better, almost elegant. And last much longer.
>>18173288my go to shoemaker is cheaney right nowthey have a good selection of shoes in different styles, im currently wearing the patterson which is a derby based on a ww2 pilots last iirci actually get a proper goodyear welt and cork filling

>>18173268Omega speedmaster professional
Why do people keep buying watches? You only need two, a dress watch and a casual watch.
>>18173298Hey, that's just, your opinion, man.
>>18173298Incorrect.You need 2 beaters, one for gym and heavy duty beater shit and other for doing yardwork etc.A diver because muh ISO certified diver, this one you take out to the beach once per year.Then 2 - 3 casual watches of your choosing, one with leather strap and other with bracelet.A mechanical chrono for timing shit and for the tactile feel, this way you appreciate horology. A quartz chrono for actually timing shit (this one should be your beater Casio).Two dress watches, one solid yellow gold and other white gold (or steel if you're poor) for variety, both mechanical. Then you need a HAQ quartz if one of your daily watches isn't that. Then you need one or true fun watches, weird colors and funky designs approved. At least one vintage, a jump hour rectangular one for example. Lastly you should have your achieved grail like a Lange 1 or something. If you have all these you unlock the exit-game in where you sell all of your watches except one of your dailies and make a borderline spiritual post on WUS of your journey.
>>18172831how long has it been? took me just over a year to get a submariner from my local AD, my previous spend was a speedmaster
>>18172900the triple copyright/registered/trademark symbols on the dial are what really sold me on this
>>18173246The finish on the metal surfaces is low effort polish and brushing juxtaposed with relatively overdone geometric complexity in the case and bracelet and indexes. The dials are poorly finished and look cheap on most of the colors, like san martin sunburst dials. They use terrible butterfly clasps(except for the latest black dial releases, I guess they came up with a new clasp design that's pretty decent.) the hands are ugly and stupid, the minute hand has a big arrow on it as if to point to a reading on a dive time bezel that isn't there. It's a strange design.There's also the other issue that like we said is rampant at omega, which is that there are just too many models and too many sizes and too many weird variations between them. They make aquaterras in 28mm, 34mm, 38mm and 41mm. Isn't that kind of a weird spread? Why would you go from miniscule, to two sizes so close and yet still clearly on opposite ends of the masculine-femanine wrist spectrum, to a 4th retardedly huge size that yoi could have just bought a seamaster 300 instead? Actually, omega doesn't even seem to agree that 38mm is a mens size because they make 38mm models that are clearly intended for women. Why not just do something like 32mm, 36mm, 39mm? Then you have obviously for women and gays models, switch hitter models where we can put a lot of variety of we want to, and bigger masculine models, so then we cut can the total number of models but the collection is streamlined and doesn't cut into any other collections.
>>18173304All you need is a beater, a daily, and one or two for special occasions.
>>18173307I'm not even especially picky or going after anything as hype as a submariner. I told them I was interested in buying a 36mm explorer or a 36mm datejust with a jubilee bracelet in basically any configuration, even 2 tone. I've waited since I think November, they keep telling me they have absolutely no rolexes to sell since the pandemic hype. I'm apparently even an oddball since every time I've ever asked them about what sizes people go for they always say all the men want the 40mm and over models, so you'd think me being the one asshole asking for 36mm watches would be a shoe in to get the next 36mm model that comes in, right? Apparently not. I have a hard time believing a 36mm watch hasn't crossed their desk within this calendar year.
>>18173323I like the idea of having 2 beaters. If your beater is quartz it doesn't really matter, but for automatic watches I like the idea of having more than one because you give them a chance to have some down time and reduce the wear on the movements. So I have 2 watches for doing work in, a bunch of watches I wear in a rotation whenever for casual stuff, a white dress watch and a black dress watch.
>>18173323>All you need is a beater, a daily, and one or two for special occasions.It depends on how you dress. There can be a lot of overlap. If your style is mostly casual, then you may not need a full-on dress watch and something like a Datejust will do fine on those rare occasions you wear a suit. On the other hand, if the only time you sweat is when you eat, you don't need a sports watch.The broad four categories:- beater (ex. G-Shock)- daily/casual (ex. Datejust)- dress (ex. Tank)- sports/weekend (ex. Submariner)
>>18173402meh there are so many other dress choices besides rolex and cartier just buy either a lower or higher price point
One day the rest of you might become rich like me and have a watch with solid gold hands and indices and 22 jewels obviously of some priceless nature incorporated into the inner workings of your timepiece.
>>18173320most likely they have giant movements all developed during the 44mm+ era of watches and can't go any smaller without using a subpar/non-coaxial movement or designing a new one from scratch
>>18173329yeah that's what you see every time someone talks about their AD experience - the store has tons of staff in an expensive rent location and yet seems to never have inventory to movealthough i do think it's odd you haven't gotten a two tone 36mm datejust from day one, those aren't exactly the hottest references out there
>>18173223AT pricing is stupid, £400 more for a speedmaster and 300m is £600 less. The AT should be £1200 less.
>>18173408>meh there are so many other dress choices besides rolex and cartier just buy either a lower or higher price point"ex." means example.Those are the most obvious choices, but they also give someone who might not know much a good jumping off point.A Datejust is a perfect example of a daily wearer. You don't have to buy one, but you know that it's not too sporty, not too dainty, and fairly robust. But I know this is /wt/ and as soon as Rolex is mentioned, bittercels get triggered.
>>18173424>most likely they have giant movements all developed during the 44mm+ era of watches and can't go any smaller without using a subpar/non-coaxial movement or designing a new one from scratchThe Globemaster has the full-size 8900 movement and it's only 39mm. I don't think movement size is that much of an issue. It's just a design choice.
>>18173427Maybe they caught me saying something a little too based online. From what I understand ADs take names they've been getting for their "list" and look them up online and see what their online presence says about them.
>>18173424The aquaterras have movements in multiple sizes. That's actually another thing that's retarded about them, the 4 different size cases use 3 different movements. Actually, you could argue there are 5 different movements as some of them use small seconds and the large and mid sized movements have separate small second variants. It's genuinely a clusterfuck of a line.
>>18173443nothing against a rollie but they're over played why not get a funky vach or just splash some cash and get a royal oak or some other flexyou know something the plebs won't readily understand

why's some guy spamming a $4000 QUARTZ watch?
>>18173587You can smash it while playing. Smashing it won't break it? The vibrations from running and jumping won't fuck with it?
>>18173591$2700. It's nice but that's an insane price to pay for a quartz (we're talking citizen guy right?)

I got some blood on my watch.The case is stainless steel, is it okay to clean the case with alcohol and soap? The watch has 200m water resistance.
>>18173298it's a cringeworthy and shitty mental illness. one that I also happen to have. ;)starting my third watchbox soon.
>>18173702yeah? what else would you use to clean it with? even just water would be enough.
>>18173690Based.
>>18173702Water and a cloth should be enough. I’d avoid detergents.
>>18173714>>18173705Water wont be enough because it would leave trace amount of blood on the surface which could be used to sequence the dna from there.I suppose alcohol is fine, as long as it doesn't get into the crown area?
>>18173718Thread starting to get good.
>>18172852G-Shock > Panerai > Zenith > Helson
>>18172571First time buying a metal watch, to be used generally with business casual at my new job that requires business casual / suit. Before this, just have used a $10 casio all my life. I am looking at a Tissot PR 100 Classic Bracelet, Green dial. I would like to know if there are any stereotypes in the watch world, such as only trailer trash get green dials, etc. Also, the watch looks alright to me, but are there things to look out for?
>>18173737Get the PR100 powermatic 80, it is mechanical and has soul
>>18173740Looks to be a bit out of my budget; was hoping to stay around $300.
>>18173737
>>18173745Grand Seiko belongs to the trash
>>18173748Is that's so you might as well throw every brand near it first.
>>18173745This is the first good memechart I see on /wt/
>>18173745I'm not even sure I see Tissot on here.
>>18173758Tissot? TOSS-IT!
>>18173754Grand Seikope is the laughing stock of the watch industry.>their watches are ugly as fuck and make no sense design wise (mixing angular shapes with organic dials is disgusting)>springdrive is a complete meme that solves a non-existing problem. You want top accuracy? Just buy quartz. Also enjoy sending your shitter to Japan for 6 months to have it serviced.>brand has no prestige, nobody wants to wear a "Grand [cheap brand]".>way too expensive, no value retentionI would buy a Panerai before a Grand Seiko. And I would rather have my arm chopped than wearing a Panerai.
>>18173761So not good to go for?
>>18173764Absolutely not
>>18173765What do you recommend around the $300 mark?
>>18173763>SeikopeWhat is this Pajeet writing lmfao.>way too expensive, no value retentionIf you're a poorfag and want to invest, stay the fuck away from watches
>>18173766A sock?
>>18173766Get a simple G-Shock to tide you over and start saving for your real watch.
>>18173773Back to ban evading again, eh Whoretadello?
>>18173776>simple G-ShockHas many more features, several magnitudes more accurate, more durable>real watchFlimsy spinning gears
>>18172571Morning bros
>>18173781Disgusting watch
>>18173784Disagree>>18173781Goood morning
>>18173784it is not disgusting, just a bit boring in person.
>>18173785>>18173791Speedmaster looks retarded. The small subdials should be more spaced, and the fixed tachymeter bezel is one of the most stupid things ever designed.
>>18173781Howdy
>>18173781Mornin
>>18173796
>>18173808shitizen!they warned you...
>>18173797Damn, nobody does gold hands like Tudor.
>>18172808It's grey market shills, they got used to flipping mid range Swiss for way over RRP. Chinese are no longer buying them and people know most "swiss" watches only have to be 60% "Value" made in Switzerland. Another words spend a shit ton on advertising and make 80% of the watch in China, stamp it "Swiss made".Couldn't pay me to spend more than $1000 on a "Swiss watch" after learning that.>>18172971More Genuine and accurate than 99% of watches.
>>18173808
>>18173814All of those things are part of why Rolex is so beloved though. They actually make the majority of the components for their products in house with minimal outsourcing.
>>18173815Basado
>>18173809Imagine if he spent all that money on a Rolex.
>>18173624But have you bashed your gshock on anything? I bet you haven't.
>bracelet of my Rolex feels too tight because of the heat>remember my Rolex has the easy link system that allows a micro-adjustment of 5mm>take of my Rolex, use easy link>now my Rolex fits perfectlyThank you Rolex.
>>18173845Based raw leeks
The new aqua terra has microadjust, but the bracelet clasp looks like this when closed after you use it.. what were they thinking?
>>18173850This all could have been avoided if they just didn't insist on using gay ass butterfly clasps. I don't understand why we're still putting butterfly clasps on metal bracelets, their only place is on rubber or leather straps.
>>18173781Morning...>>18173733Thanks, m8.>>18173728Thanks>>18173043Thanks, my friend.>>18173016Thanks, pal.>>18172922Thanks. >>18172895Thanks, dude.
>>18173863'sup vomit inducing hog.
for me, it's she
>>18173864Bitta
>>18173865Still better than a grand seiko.
I just want to point out that Mort has more high end pieces than anyone else here and people by and large enjoy his posts with a relatively light level of "bitterness." this is most likely because he doesn't dump mass amounts of images of the same watches to let you know he's here, he doesn't over share wildly embarrassing details about his personal affairs, and doesn't act like a self important twat. But that's just my observation.
>>18173873See >>18173864 disgusting creature.
>>18173875There are going to be anonymous haters, there's no getting around that. I'm just saying the amount of hate you get is probably proportional to how much you act like a shithead. Mort has his haters but he still gets genuine respect ans compliments from a lot of the general because he doesn't fish for xompliments and attention all day and expose himself as a lowlife.
>>18173864I wonder... how pathetic and sad your life must be?
>>18173864bittertadello lmfao kek
>>18173868>>18173873>>18173882>>18173884>>18173889Thanks friends, but don't worry about the haters. I really couldn't care less about them, that's why I don't even bother replying.I'm just glad to be able to discuss watches anonymously and post a pic every once in awhile. Cheers.
>>18173892You have the bird nest shot? That was kino.Have a good one, lawyerbrah.
>>18173893I swear I was about to upload that one, but I finally changed it because it had a watch that I already posted in this thread. Here it is, friend.Thanks.
>>18173892You have no friends loser.
This crusade, daresay witch hunt against me needs to stop. Dudes be hatin just cuz I rock the red dial seiko
>>18173896This one really pops, nice depth of field.
>>18173900Theyre aliens dont listen to it
>>18173900It's fine, bittercel, a red presage is a good watch.
>>18173900ah.. that's why the Grand seiko hate.
Bros...I just ordered another San Martin.>>18173812I dislike blingy stuff, but that gold is not flashy and it has a warm feeL, that's why I choose that watch over the BB54 or BB58, 54 had mismatched coulours (white bezel marks) and bb58 blue felt too simple and dull.
>>18173907In all honesty, like half the hate is because they have the most retarded and unimaginative name in the whole industry.>Who'd pay more than a thousands dollars for a seiko?t. I own a Grand Ford
>>18173900Isn't the red presage whoretadello?
>>18173910I wonder if it's because it's not really gold?
>>18173920Who the fuck cares about these retarded avatarfags?
>>18173920No, he has (or had?) a red sharp edged series.
Yesterday was my birthday. I used the Lange website to make a card about the date.I FUCKING LOVE A. LANGE & SÖHNE.I wish I could own one.
>>18173922Because as long as we can accurately identify them and report their spam and ban evasion maybe the jannies will start to notice that the same bullshit ass pics are being reported every so many hours and they'll realize "oh shit, this actually is spamming and avatarfagging."
For me its the f105w, very comfy and good light, water resistance hasn't failed me yetI am ashamed to say I used an apple watch for a while which I know is heresy on this board, but I used it for mainly fitness reasons (I lift more than you). what a piece of shit. at least you can use the watch charger for newer airpods
>>18173935It's not all it's cracked up to be.
>>18173921Of course it is not gold or rose gold,it is some plating,the watch would be way expensive if it had some precious metal on it,but still looks fine
>>18173948If it's not gold why do they call it GILT retard?
Unmatched style, unmatced power.
>>18173950Gold coloured,not meaning it is made from actual gold.
>>18173954It's GOLD
>>18173935Rolex is better
>>18173954It means the hands are covered with a thin layer of gold. The hands are made from something else, stainless steel maybe idk
Today I pulled the Hammy.
>>18173971How’s the recovery going?
>>18173941You can get very nice G-Shocks for fitness reasons, anon
>>18173971For the same price you could get an identical watch but without that stupid font and with the date window at 3, where it is supposed to be. Must feel bad.
>>18173815anon you actually have a cal. 0100? daddy's gonna cream+/-1 second per year mogs most everything itt
>>18173935Happy birthday anon!
>>18173971Looks similar to my little Seiko.
good morning fellas
>>18173990Going ok. Some days are better than others.>>18173994It was a gift from my wife years ago, so I don't feel too bad at all.>>18174014Nice to see a Seiko that isn't too loud (most of the cocktail times I see just draw a bit too much attention for me).
>>18173990>>18174018What happened to you?
>>18174006>you actually have a cal. 0100?Yee
>>18174020Accidentally bit his dickhead off while sucking his own cock.
Is this a good watch?I'm really into it, and found a good deal locally.
>>18174018>It was a gift from my wife years ago, so I don't feel too bad at allSorry anon, I was just being bitter for the fun of it. It's actually a pretty watch.
>>18174027Well, who hasn't? Really?
>>18174020He said he tore his hamstring
