Afternoon kofe time.Perpetual calendar btw.
REMINDER: A TRUE made in SWITZERLAND watch does NOT, I repeat, does NOT say "swiss made" on the dial.Have a nice evening.
If you post a Tudor Black Bay Ceramic, a Grand Seiko, a Moser, a Credor or a Citizen in this thread, your mother will be raped by a pack of nogs and die a horrific and painful death.
>>18281753Wish you a nice afternoon, PerpetualCalendarChad.Love your 100% made in Japan watch btw.Here's mine for reference.
>>18281754Based and truth pilled.
>>18281756But Anon, that's literally already happened.How did you think whoretadello was conceived? He's swarthy as mud.
>>18281757Thank you, MoserChad. The Grand Seiko White Birch will always be one of the best watches out there and yours complements your collection perfectly, fren.Wish you a nice eve on the promised land.
I want to be serious for a moment. Unlike all of you faggots i like watches. And i want to be making them. I am already in training to become CNC machinist, but what do i do next, how do i become a watchmaker?
Rolex on my wristPfeizer in my armIsrael in my heart
>>18281768LOL
>>18281768Okay so, can you give me a list of redpilled watch brands?
>>18281753>>18281761We've seen your watch at least 1000 times but, I took the time to think about it in a more objective manner and my conclusion is that; people don't actually realise what they're seeing here.It is an anomaly in the watch world. I won't say that it is the best value for money that you can get, because sadly this term has also been dragged through the ground and it has lost its meaning, and yet if you think about it, the fact that you can get this watch below 2000$ does not make sense.First of all, you get the, possibly, most accurate autonomous watch on the planet, no GPS gimmicks, no radio controll no internet whatever, it's just you, in the woods, knowing the atomic time without big tech and or the government being able to track you. On top of that, you literally have a feature that is usually reserved for much, Much more expensive watches- the perpetual calendar.Technicalities and specs aside, what do you get on the finishing part? It is as good as a grand seiko in terms of Hands and Marker finishing- Spotless, Sharp and no impurities or rough edges to be found. But what does GS-Level mean? Well it literally means that your Markers and Hands do have, on a macro level, better finished hands than 5 Digit Swiss Watches. It doesn't matter if this fact makes you angry or triggered or in doubt, but it is a Fact. The dial itself, the way they did the perception of depth, shouldn't work but it does and youc an even see the sunburst effect too.Okay so what about exclusivity? Well what defines exclusivity?>Low productionCheck>Locked behind the country of originCheck>Rare limited edition on top of said rarity to begin withCheckSo what about the case?Well it is not zaratsu but it still shouldn't be as good as it is. It is almost distortion free.But is it all perfect? I don't think so, no. It is too thick, the movement is ugly and the bracelet is below the standards that the dial and tech have set. But again,it's 2000$
>>18281770Casio, Grand Seiko, Seiko, Citizen, Orient.
>>18281770F.P. Journe. That is all.
>>18281771Cont.Compare it to the competition, at 2000$ what do you get from the swatch brands? ETA? Yeah... I mean cool. So what is the catch? The name, Citizen. It IS the fashion world after all and branding is, for better or for worse, the most important factor in the eyes of the everyday people.Is it perfect for what it is? I think so, yes. There is room for improvement though, but said improvement would mean that it isn't the same watch, so I would not touch it. It being thick btw also means that it is more durable, so it isn't necessarily a bad thing. Especially considering that there needs to be room for the thermocompensation for the accuracy.
>>18281775>>18281771Is all of this actually true? Shitposting aside.
>>18281776Most of it is. The case is zaratsu polished and the bracelet is great.
>>18281768Imagine lacking of arguments to attack Rolex that you have to come up with weird scenarios in your schizo mind just to cope with the fact you can't even afford a vintage Air King

>>18281799Holy KEK
>>18281799You jumped too far, anon. It means it's made in the same country where "swiss made" watches are made.
/fa/ggots, which is more important? Max lug-to-lug calculated by wrist width multiplied by 0.83 or max diameter calculated by wrist width multiplied by 0.7? Or is it both? For a sports watch, not a gay dress watch.
Thoughts on nomos bros? I wanna pull the trigger on this cause of the case size and how thin it is but the lugs seems a bit long. Any alternatives?
>>18281829Most important thing is not having gems for indices.
>>18281831>nomos
no no no Wolex bros how do we come back from this agggghhh
>>18281834Pic not related.>>18281831No.
>>18281820Just checked, That's two hours by car from here. Why you asking?
>>18281762You go to a watchmaking school where at the end of the first 6 months they give you a 1x1" brass cube and tell you you've got 8hrs to hew, by hand, 8 perfect and identical miniature gears from to pass the exam. That course is longer. If you just want to become a service-monkey then the course is shorter but it's basically teaching you how to do the most finicky lego imaginable.>CNCUnnecessary for now, but the skills would be useful if applying for an actual watchmaking school. If you're simply thinking of recasing movements in your own cases and selling them like that then just don't bother. The chinks have a gorillion cnc machines and can do that shit cheaper, faster and with more precision that's why every microbrand uses them.The better, purer, watchmaking schools will actually emphasize watchMAKING (cube to gear by hand etc), a relative rarity now because all the biggest schools have tailored their courses to cater to the mass conglomerates who only need glorified service-monkies.
>>18281762Spend a year making a watch, swim/crawl to Roger Smith's door and beg admittance. He will send you away, spend another year making a better one. Repeat to fade.
>>18281831>Any thoughtsBuy that homos if you support any or all of the following>trannyfying kids>allow homos to rape kids unimpeded>unchecked and unlimited flooding of europe with nigs and sandnigs>complete state control of media and all of society and complete homogeneity of thought>BLMYou might think this to be hyperbole but I assure you it is not. There is not a single watch brand that is as overtly politically activist than this one thanks to its ceo.
>>18281868>gear from a brass cubeDisregard anything this anon says, he's talking out of his ass.>no steel for the axle, good luck brunishing brass lmao>not using cylindrical bars when gearcutting is done by lathe and mill
>>18281872Casual returnee here. When did the /fa/g board become fully schizo chud?
>>18281877Same as the rest of 4chan.The site never recovered from the 2016 election tourists and it never will.
If Nomos really wanted to attract kids they would make the lugs smaller.
>>18281877They're actually not lying. Exaggerating maybe, but it's not in essence a lie. It's why any mention of nomos is met with derision and laughter.
'Here at Nomos our core brand identity is the furtherance of child rape and state control of media'.Somewhat unlikely scenario. If I'm wrong perhaps Mr Chud should persue legal recourse?
>>18281868Do big brands not make their own cases and bracelets? You need CNC machining to make them.
this thread is so shit even whoretadellos discord is better

Box o'shitters.
>>18281785He's not japanese. He left his nice, loving wife and children behind in Italy because he felt discontented in life, moved to eastern europe for a while to whore it up, then about a year ago moved to Japan so he could feel closer to his GS. Sad story, sad person.
>>18281919Love the 0 instead of the 12 hour marker
>>18281924@LoreTadelloWhere you at
>>18281762Im a machinist and I never have made watch parts but I would say get good at nlx or mastercam so you can design and run your own parts. I think all watch parts can be done on 3 axis milling so I would just get that small haas that goes on a workbench, vf2 I think. With that you’ll be able to do case, dial, and bracelets. I think a haas could do some movement parts but you would get a lot of scrap too. Buying off the shelf movements and modifying those seems to be the way to go at the start
>>18281938Honestly i just want to copy a streamliner's bracelet but i have know idea how to make them, even watch cases seem more simple.
>>18281887they forced their workers to attend workshops promoting diversity and antifascism after a muslim raped and beheaded a girl nearby and they had a whole line of rainbow watches promoting some lgbtbbq shit
>>18281943The hardest thing would be the tiny threaded holes. I think you could make the links by doing a dovetail milling 3 sides then flipping it over into a vise to cut off the dovetail. finishing steel would be a pain but doable
>>18281956Holes doesn't have to be threaded, i am not Henry Moser, simple pins will do.
>>18281896we would but /wt/ stands for whoretadellos thread so no, whoretadello it is. kys faggot
Is Breitling brewing something up? It seems liie there's been a big wave about Breitling coming out of the usual youtube shills, even a video on how Breitling is the official glowie watch brand, so it feels like they must be sending a lot of money out to the shills to build attention.
>>18281964considering teddy baldass just dropped a Breitling video I would assume so
>>18281964I'm thinking they're about to announce something for Universal Geneve.

>>18281751I own a 124270 Explorer, but I really want a 90s GMTII. Maybe even a birthday watch (1991).Should I pull the plug?Pepsi or Coke?
>>18282220"Pull the plug" means it dies.
>>18282192Nah, they're on low budget or high budget watches. I'd say that if your links attach via screws it makes your bracelet sort of a midwit

>>18282220kek I have a 124270 as well as a late 90s GMT Master II (Pepsi). I never wear the Pepsi. It's actually in a safe among other things. Obviously it's a super cool watch but I prefer the feeling of the Explorer. The bracelet and dimensions work best for me.Don't buy one online without trying it first. You may be surprised (and not in a good way) of how pre-SEL Rolexes feel.
>>18282216I wear a citizen now. But it doesn't tick all the boxes. If only it was slim, mother of pearl and had good lume...

What do you think about wearing two watches, one on each wrist?

>>18282286Euthanasia
>>18282243There are watches that I don't like but I get the appeal. For example I hate Grand Seiko's designs but okay they make some nice textured dials and have these funny hybrid movements. This H. Moser... I really don't get it. It looks so plain and outdated. Stainless steel, blue dial, 40mm. It's literally every post-COVID micro-shitter brand with a chink movement, except it's 15k eurobucks. Explain this watch to me. Why are there two (2) anons ITT who bought this shitter?
>>18282290It's a Rolex man, not a Philippe Dufour or some rare Patek. There are millions of these in the wild already.
>>182822975K used don't let them fool you; notice how few Rolex mooks have box and papers? Same with these Moosers; >Sort by lowest price
>>18282297Honestly I love how the dial looks, it always seems to glow. I really like H. Moser, probably gonna get an endeavor too. Also bought mine used, they take a hit and I'm not paying 15k kek
>>18282306Are you the anon with the Lange 1?
Every time I read Moser, I remember this scene.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nracbDwF0Ik
>>18282310No that's not me
>>18282243this is a weird collection, it's like the bitterfag and avatardfag dream combined. for some reason these two watches together seem to almost repel each other like they're different polarity. fyi that was just my take and not aimed to insult you. if you do feel the need to seethe feel welcome to do so and kys flag lmfao. nice watches though.
looking to buy my first watch ever. I know nothing about watches but I like the way this one look. Thoughts? …
>>18282297Their spam got me interested in looking at moser.Apparently one thing about them that's unique is that there is no play in the crown whatsoever. I mean that if you move the crown slightly that motion is translated directly and instantly to the hands moving on the dial; there's none of that "slack" or whatever in turning before something actually happens with the hands that you get with virtually every other movement anywhere ever. It's tight.Only interesting anecdote about them however.
>>18282330well this is one of the watches ever made for sure

lmfao shitteeeeeeerrrr
>>18282831STOP IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT I PAID 6K FOR A CHINESE WATCH! IT SAYS "OMEGA" ON THE DIAL.
My watch brand of choice ? Nizhouguoziren. The finest from Taiwan.
>>18282787It's probably not making you dislike watches so much as people who make watches their personality.
>>18282846Yeah imagine if your personality was made in China.
watches are overrated . it's all about the bracelet . if this was a better bracelet (still hollow) it would be the perfect watch .
>>18282857Kofe time?
>>18282860I suggest you end your life.
>>18282183I like it a lot.A faithful recreation of the original. As far as I can tell, the only major flaw is the small crown. And ETA movement copy they use has only 36 hours of power reserve.Sure, it's made in China, but it's under $1K. Original wasn't luxury either.
>>18282857retard
>>18282864Why?
>>18282871The 36mm version doesn't use an ETA, it has a clone made by a "revived" Landeron company.There is no info on it anywhere, their website is AI generated down to the images (I'm not joking, it says so in its own "partners" section) and I'd be willing to bet the reason the 36mm models are all limited is because they can't reliably source these movements.
>>18282183No.This version and the spider dials are fine. They're reissues of historical models and don't really have an equivalent today either.The black dial + mercedes hands ones are pure Explorer cope though.
>>18282838
>>18282878Yeah, I did write it's an ETA copy. A copy of 2801 / 2804 without a rotor. 36 hours vs original 40-50 for some reason.They can always source Sellita or Soprod, but reasons, i'm sure, are economic. You can't buy a new one now, because they work as most of the microbrands: ordering some batches from the factory to sell, but not keeping constant production. Maybe they'll make more watches later.
NWA I heard you guys were a fan of Japanese watches and coffee
>>18282895the omega logo is clearly shopped on lol
>>18282913Looks cool.What's the diameter?
>>1828293537mm it’s so shiny it’s really hard to take a picture of without getting the reflection of my phone in the dial
>>18282908They already use automatic Soprods for other watches, this particular manual only movement isn't really made by Selitta or the usual suspects, which seems to be why they'd go with such a weird option as a shady namesake company with no other track record whatsoever.>You can't buy a new one now, because they work as most of the microbrands: ordering some batches from the factory to sell, but not keeping constant production.That would normally be a good enough explanation but the automatic ones are in a permanent collection and have not run out of stock at any point, which does mean it's either trying to farm FOMO or the main point of difference, the movement, is not as reliably available.
>>18282940Cool little watch. I like it.
>>18282944SW215-1 is a copy of the same movement, and you can buy Super Antarctic 35mm with Landeron 21 right now. Maybe they can't source the golden penguin caseback, maybe nobody wants the rest of the watches , so they're still in stock lmao
>>18282934Are you still in denial that your swatch daddy is located in china?
Afternoon kofe time.
>>18282796Still sweeping. Both of them.
Looking for a breakfast watch><$100>waterproof>built-in timer, date function>38-40mmI want something I can wear when I wake up in the mornings to keep track of things, time some stuff, I keep my phone far away from me when the sun rises and I don't want to touch it for these things.
100% (Hundred Percent, down to the IN-HOUSE hairspring) made in SWITZERLAND.100% (Hundred percent, down to the IN-HOUSE GROWN jewels and quartz crystal) made in JAPAN.
>>18283005Based, but how can you tell the Moser is 100 % made in Switzerland?
>>18283005100% ugly.
>>18283009Well that's pretty easy, see the dial? Notice how it does NOT say "Swiss Made"? Well that's a telltale sign that it's 100% (down to the IN-HOUSE hairspring btw) made in Switzerland. It doesn't need to prove anything.
what is it about these round, dressy JLCs that always instantly strikes me as bland, grey, basic and unappealing?
>>18283020Because they make them 40mm and leave tons of sterile looking empty space on the dial
>>18283023Pic related is even bigger, and it has basically the same dial layout.Yet it's so much nicer, just as empty yet somehow so much more full of life even though things like the hour markers have LESS detail than on the JLC.
I mean look at this, it's depressing.
>>18283020>>18283026These are not JLC and Vacheron.They're Richemont shitters.
>>18283054Vacheron unironically has better and more soulful icons than Patek.Being part of a group in no way means having less soul.
>>18283054>>18283059Show me a better calendar watch from Patek.Any calendar type will do.
>>18282934cope
>>18283009moser's been autistic about this and has called out the industry as a whole multiple times for this bullshitthey even made a watch out of a swiss cheese mixed resin out of spite to draw attention to the illusion that is "swiss made"
>>18283059>>18283063I won't argue about the fact modern Patek is shit. Modern Vacheron is slightly better but only because they make reissues of their vintage watches (the Historiques collection).The thing is, Patek is 100 times more historically relevant than Vacheron. This triple calendar you just posted is a cope version of 70 years old Patek. I say this as someone who owns a vintage Vacheron.
>>18283077>>18283083H. Moser wins again
>>18283085>This triple calendar you just posted is a cope version of 70 years old Patek.uhh anon, that triple calendar I posted is called the "1942" for a reason; it's based on a 1942 original, see pic.Your Patek came a decade later.
>>18283014your mother wishes you were a stillborn. she’ll be happier once you finally kill yourself
>>18283092COPE
>>18281751Anbody know anything about this brand? It says made in Germany but I doubt that lmao. Either way, I like the style of numerals if anybody knows of a decent quality automatic watch with a similar look. My budget is on the lower side, like $250 max, but any recommendations are very appreciated.
>>18283105Orient Bambino is always the answer
Jesus Christ do these avatarfags just come here every single thread to post the exact same things? I leave for two months, come back and it’s the same retards spamming the same posts. They really need to find a hobby. Don’t they have family or friends?
>>18283092His poor relationship with his mother is why he ran away from Greece.
Because I have a hot wife, I don't need any other accessories. As a male, a hot wife is the ultimate accessory. So seeing people spending fortunes on watches makes me laugh. Do you not have a hot wife? Anyway, Timex is the best brand. Quality at an affordable price, and they throw a bit of fun into their watches. You can call it a shitter, I don't care. I see your Royal Oak and go: poor sack married a 4.
As a black male, some rich beta’s hot wife is the ultimate accessory. Sure, I like the Royal Oak she bought me with her husband’s money, but claiming another man’s pride is more rewarding.
>>18283026It's not empty. Both the top and bottom half of the watch are occupied by complications. They filled the top with the biggest most space occupying form of date complication possible.
>>18283130>Both the top and bottom half of the watch are occupied by complications.The bottom of the JLC is arguably more filled than on the VC.And the date complication is only taking up space that would otherwise be taken up by full-length indices.But really it's the same with the even more basic patrimonies.They look soulful and full of life. Compared to the depressing JLC.
>>18283108Kofe Time
>>18283143I think it's about balance. If you look at that date window VC the date window is a similar size and position on the opposite side of the VC cross branding. The JLC has this big basketball of complications at the bottom and nothing at the top. It's like a girl with giant fat ass and no tits, even if you like ass it looks weird and out of proportion.
>>18283112Don't forget that he also ran away from Germany because his wife left him, and then 'his' prostitute also left him. I guess he always thinks it's a geographical issue, but the problem is really him.
whorecel lmfao
>REEEEEEEEE AVATARFAGS SHITTING THREADS REEEEEEE>proceeds to post nothing but seethe about avatarfags and giving them endless (you)'s instead of ignoring them which has always been standard practicenewfagniggers go back
>>18283208One day he'll realize "wow..... All my problems follow me everywhere I go. The problem must be me."
>>18281977Honestly thats the nicest watch they make by far
>>18281987wow that thing has really healthy amplitude.
kill yourself niggerfaggot
>>18283208his whore left him? what? he ran out of money or something lmfao
Who has that meme of the different brands of watches and the pepes with the basedjack crying in the big boy sweater?
>>18283224No he won’t. He’ll just call everyone else bitter.

I will now rate some watches>>182830599/10, tastefuly executed, unique, good materials>>182830272/10, sterile and dull>>182829403/10, I would prefer a Polerouter for this type of dial layout>>1828285710/10 verification not required>>182827702/10, very uninteresting dial on an otherwise interesting movement
>>18283027yeah i dont know why but it really does look just dull compared to >>18283143 even though the VC also has lots of empty space
>>18283275Go back to b you fucking newfag nigger
>>18283275Fake rate anon will never be as good as the real thing. Snark will never replace insight.
I will now rate some watches>>182830594/10, A very nice watch, but too big. Wrong proportions.>>182830273/10, Too big, even worse than the previous one.>>182829406/10, Good proportions for a three-hand watch, unfortunately: Miyota movement. With in-house movement it would be a solid 9/10.>>182828578/10, Good watch for little money, looks good, doesn't try to be any other watch.>>182827705/10, A great Seiko with an interesting lug design, but the size is disproportionate.
I just made a swiss movement, ama
>>18283354what chinese providence do you come from?
>>18283354How's life in Shenzhen?
>>18283357I live in the Dongmen residential district in Shenzhen>>18283359not too bad. you should give us a visit sometime, I'll let you use my employee discount on a consterration if you want.
My Hamilton kekhi auto died few years ago because I dropped it on a marble floor. It was my one watch for a decade.I'm going to replace the stock 2824 with the superior soppyrod newton. Thankfully it's a slot-in replacement.You don't hear much of soprod, even if on paper the p092 is superior to the sellita 2824 knockoff, and most micros use that shitty seiko mvt. Even the miyota options are better these days.
ITT there is someone pretending to be a black person, has WT ever sunk so low?
>>18283409We hit rock bottom when our last white avatars left. We’re all just watching the ship go down.
think im just gonna get the swatch fifty fathoms and save 20K.
poorfag
>>18283107Excellent, thanks!
The best perpetual calendar watch:Citizen The Citizen Chronomaster.
>>18283409wt sunk this low the second it left /g
I think the autistic finn is right about Citizen: ultra-precise, solar-powered, virtually maintenance-free quartz watch with a champagne dial that looks great, but the bracelet looks awful.
can someone suggest a good but modestly priced brand for rubber watch bandsused to have an uncleseiko rubber but it snapped clean in half a year in use (for no reason) thankfully the watch fell onto a couch
>>18283511The citizen watches I see itt look cool but then I go on their website and everything looks like garbage.
>>18283514I've been enjoying some strapseekers I've gotten off of amazon>>18283428There has to be a dozen better alternatives, like one of the chinese homages or the Bulova that resembles it.
>>18283543Every time Citizen accidentally makes a good watch they discontinue it.
>>18283548Why do they do that? They can't be that stupid
>>18283568>Here's your new watch bro, with 5ATM WR instead of 10
>>18283572but thats not my watch??
>>18283597She's never yours. It's just your turn.
>>18281831chinks will make you that watch for $94.
>>18281831>Thoughts on nomosexcellent for homos
Let's say you already own a black speedmaster and you were looking for a dress watch, but then you found this blue speedy for almost the same price than the dress watch. But deep inside, you know you need the dress watch and you already have a black speedy.Taking this into account, left or right?
>>18283682Ask yourself how badly you NEED a dress watch?
>>18283684I'd say once a week for the office
>>18283682anon this is a tough decision because they are both equally terrible
>>18283682the longer I look at that seedmaster the uglier it gets
>>18283682I'm not sure how much that Nomos costs, but you can get a Cartier Tank WSTA0041 for like 2500 bucks.That's THE dress watch.
>>18282857I have an A158. It was the first watch I ever bought. It's had more wrist time than any of the others. Light, durable, accurate, comely. If I were to change the bracelet I'd get the SKXMOD one for their A168 clone. At $60 I'm tempted to do so just for the fun of it.
>>18283682You don't "need" any of those watches.>>18283703I'd rather buy a 2500 bucks G-shock than a Cartier Tank.
>>18283745>I'd rather buy a 2500 bucks G-shock than a Cartier Tank.And yes, as a "dress watch".
>>18283000just put a sweet vintage stretchy speidel strap on my vintage bulova
>>18283703>Cartier Tank>THE dress watch.THE crossdress watch more like
>>18283703A printed paper dial and a Chinese quartz movement? Wtf are you serious?
>>18283821actually cartier make their own in-house quartz movements, surprisinglywhether it's chink or not I don't know, but it's theirs>paper dialit sure look like itlooks cheapreason why I could never like them

>>18281751WHO TF HAS THE WATCH TIERLIST MEME
>>18283824I made an "in-house" movement this morning if you catch my drift
You need more?
I'm in love with aventurine dials
>>18283875sugess made it first and made it better
A scifi/modern wristwatch that becomes an atomic precise table clock would be so cool, I wish casio did something like that
Baked a new bread, Frens.>>18283895>>18283895>>18283895GO GO GO!!!
>>18283682>>18283699Yeah, it's a quirky one.The chronos are painted even outside their circles, one of them has a hand of a different color (two blue and one silver), that date inside of the hours index, and then the cute bear. I like it, it's unique.
>>18283703Wearing a Cartier tank as a man is gayer than wearing a NOMOS.
>>18283824>cartier make their own in-house quartz movements>whether it's chink or not I don't know, but it's theirsSo, Cartier is a chink brand?
