Timex Weekender EditionThis thread is for the discussion of affordable watches, straps, and modifications.Last thread: >>18468730
Fucking peak
Been thinking about getting this as my first analog chronograph. It's not officially available in the US, but Sakura Watches has it for $156
Hit me with your favorite textured dials. Found out today they made a hamilton khaki with a textured ice blue dial which I love, but it seems next to impossible to find.
>>18499720This newer Vostok model stuck with me
What do you guys think about my dad's watches?I'm thinking of fixing them and selling the black one, I don't think I'd look good on my tiny wrists
Casio made an automatic. What the fuck were they thinking?
>>18500088They suck. Sell the black one for $20. I doubt anyone would pay that though.
in what context would you wear a casio duro with a steel bracelet?
>>18500088the wenger on the far right is peak 90s and dope af sell the others
Thoughts on chinkwatches? Thinking on getting picrel after finding out that the casio duro might be a tad too heavy and large for me
>>18500078like a turd on your shoe
>>18500394Either get an actual rep or something that doesn't look like a Rolex Sub at all. But this, with the Adidiesive logo, maximum loser vibes.
>>18500394Ah yes, the "I want snobby watch enthusiasts to laugh at me and call me poor but also want to get jumped by niggers in a dark alley for my 200 dollar replica watch" watch.
>paid $490By the skin of my teeth
>>18498919Who makes the best tank shitter, specifically for women? My wife has expressed interest in a tank but probably won't even wear it and also doesn't give a shit about watches. My initial thoughts are citizen or seiko
>>18500589what's you budget?
>>18500458Nice
>want a solid gold watch>too poor for a solid gold watchHow do I cope?
>>18498919I have a Timex Weekender with a NATO strap.It looks pretty cool but the ticking drives me insane
>>18500088I like the Wengers, my dad had some of those. They're non obtrusive enough that no one would notice them.>>18500756Timex analog sucks ass, I like the Ironman G-Shock homage the best.
>>18500399>Poorfaf thread>"Just shellout $3k bro"You niggers are the reason why every single watch thread in this board turns to shit and more useless generals keep being created
Anyone here got a boderry? I think the bronze voyagers look pretty nice. Wish the date wheel was colour matched to the dial though.
>>18500203tissot's days are numbered
>>18499720My Spinnaker has a cool texture
>>18500394I have the quartz version of that and it's a great watch for the $35 I paid. Not the best bracelet obviously, but it has a screw in crown and really good lume which surprised me.
>>18500786Timex has really been upping their game IMO, the 1983 line is looking pretty cool. Also really liking the titanium expedition. Both feel like they have a unique identity, which hopefully they'll keep focusing on instead of making cheap copycat watches. Seems like they're starting to try and move upmarket a bit which I'm all for.
bought a seiko 809 i like it but the strap looks and feels cheap. i dont feel like dropping 20 bucks for another strap
>>18500862They look good, including the Weekender, I admit, but are they all obnoxiously loud with the ticking?
>>18500881I can't confirm since I don't own either, but isn't the loud ticking only a problem with quartz watches?
i like the stupid, weird 90s-00s swatches. are the wrist bands all hard as a stick now or are they still usable?
>>18500862Timex has been releasing nothing but bangers for awhile now. Here's my Marlin.
The weekender is almost perfect. But how come it's so loud? What's an alternative with less noise?I live in a first world country, so yes there are places where it's quiet enough to notice, even in public.
>>18500895Yeah, I didn't see the automatic on the dial. My bad.
>>18500203can't let china get all the cheap auto sales
>>18500394garbage
>>18500589seiko
>>18501160This is the closest alternative I've found so far, but the dial just isn't as clean as the weekender. No 24 hr markers either. Still a nice looking watch though, I own both.
the only real issue with those old seiko 5s is the metal of the indexes and the hands it's mirror like and looks like tin and being highly reflective it's unpleasant to focus on. such a bummer. otherwise nice watch case 01V0 sealed well ok movt but that cheap shit metal ruins it.
>>18501327funny, I'm also on the weekender-to-bm3130 (or whatever that model is)-pipeline.the weekender showed more signs of the beating I give my watches, but it has indiglo.the citizen has day-date and ecodrive and decent lume, but no indiglo. it's definitely a better watch. but the weekender was good . I hated both the stock straps, put the weekender on a nato and the citizen on an engineer bracelet.the loud ticking on the weekender never bothered me but I seem to be firmly in the minority.
>>18501808Why didn’t you get a bracelet that sits clean up to the dial?
>>18501808The ticking never bothered me either until I took it camping and it was comically loud in the tent at night. Got the citizen after that. Still prefer the look of the weekender and it gets the most wear of any of my watches, because I have a bunch of straps in different colors and can work it into almost any outfit.
>>18501929eh, I wanted an engineer so I found a chink super engineer on scamazon and bought it. I don't know that they make aftermarket bracelets like you describe, or not cheaply? anyway I'm fine with how it is.
>>18500458>Orient Saar
San Martin in de sun.
these seagull chinkwatches are tempting me. why do they have 5 different websites though? are they all legit
>>18504569this one is better.also, they should make the Hitler saluting one
>>18500686Either buy a replica, though it'll only be plated, or find something else that you can get for an acceptable price that, for some reason, is actually as cool as a solid gold watch, or maybe even cooler.
>>18504569anything not made in the sea-gull factory is a licensed knock off, they're all as legit as each other really. Any of the western websites are selling the exact same watches as you get off aliexpress for 3x the price.
Weekender this Weekender that, but what about the Weekdater?
>>18500686Honestly solid gold watches are tacky.
I've never been complimented on a watch more than when I started wearing this fucking meme daily last monthI got it because I busted my seiko and it was literally an impulse buy while I was at the shop to fix it (I didn't get it fixed, btw, it's gonna cost me more than buying a new one lol)I don't know if people think I'm wearing it ironically and/or are complimenting it ironically. but it tells the time and I like it
>>18507220
>>18506707Back to your containment thread and your drug deals. Shoo.
>>18507220I already posted the same experience last year but with the metal model
>>18507799please refer to this >>18507489
>>18506709It looks appropriate on a 38mm or smaller dress watch. But if you mean big chunky sports watches then yes, I'd agree
>>18509078nice, man
r8 & h8
>>18509162Comfy
>>18509078Based and railwaypilled
>poorfag thread >posting $250+ watches
>>18510741Even someone working minimum wage can easily afford a $250 watch, so yes, it is a poorfag value.
>>18509162I like the mesh, anon.
>>18510739Work on the railroad too
>>18510741Ranjeet and Rakesh are working overtime to shit up any and all watch discussion in this board
>>18509162nice 80s sleaze bro
>>18511387Trains are cool.
DJ copy 36mm, QC seems ok.>>18500394You may get the 38mm Duro. But yeah, there are a lot of Chinese watches 40mm and below.>>18500928The rubber and leather straps from my old watches have become stiff, the sailcloth type looked too worn. The only ones that are usable are the metal bracelets.
>skx but slimmer and quartz?
Somebody recommended me a poorfag analog watch with an olive drab canvas strap but I can’t find it now. I’m after a Second World War or Vietnam era style reproduction.
>>18511897search 'field watch' or 'pilot watch' aliexpress, or other ecommerce sites that sell chinese brands
>>18511897to the letter of your question, a seagull 1963 fits the criteria and its a good, cool watch. but it was not American issue.
>>18500394You're too late. Trump fucked up ali express already.
>>18511897I bet it was the Citizen Garrison watch. Actually just bought this myself recently its a great watch though I replaced the green strap.
anyone boughted a shanghai watch? they're like $27 on aliexpress and I like that they're actually chinese instead of being some knockoff.
>>18513021I've always wanted to try one.
>>18512541What did you replace it with?
>>18511897maybe a bertucci but i think those are quartz
>>18513021Shanghai #114 is the one to get
>>18513021looks nice. agree about the owning being Chinese thing.with 19 jewels it's got to be mechanical but only $27? that's a cheap-ass watch even on ali. can it actually be any good?
>>18512541I must be in the minority of garrison owners who loves the stock strap it comes with. The inner material makes it very comfy and I like how the riveted holes look. Its a bit stiff I'll admit but breaks in nicely.
>>18507220I got hit on by a woman who noticed that I matched my shirt and my watch.What was I wearing?picrelThe only reason I remember and care is because she was hot.Weird?Yes.And I loved it. >Captcha:>WWHYY
>>18513375my casios only get me compliments from other guys
>>18513387My situation was uncommon.She was very into the conversation topic.The matching watch / shirt combination was icing. Otherwise, yes, it's mostly watch guys who notice watches.I agree with that.
>>18513419what shirt
I find casio 2100 with cordora nylon strap uncomfortable to wear. It's not the biggest gshock hence I cannot fathom how the rest of you wear gshocks.
>>18513455I put aftermarket nylons and elastic ones, steel bracelet, and rubber straps on my 5600, which isn’t also big. Both the FKM and $2 rubber straps are the most comfortable as long as the overall fit is good. Also, as long as the nylons are soft, I have no issue.
>>18513431It was a joke shirt. A tacky black collared shirt with a single large print of voluptuous blonde woman against a yellow sun background with bold red kanji text. I was also wearing black pants, socks, and shoes. The only highlights of color were the watch and image / text on the shirt. Which matched each other. Simple and aesthetically pleasing.
>>18513431>>18513750>addendumThe shirt itself is actually very well made and looks nice. Good materials, good print, good execution. The concept is tacky; blonde woman in a pseudo-traditional Japanese context. Trying to look cultured, but it's really just thirst posting. That's ridiculous and I played it up with a ridiculous watch. The only thing that saved it is that, absent the print, it's a good shirt.
>>18513404still looking for a modern replacement for this watch. your seiko looks quite similar, but the thickness is in the 12mm range I assume? the weekdater and the timex marlin further above also hit the same vibe, but I guess my criteria are:>diameter <= 37mm>thickness 8-10mm>silver/cream/beige/bronze sunburst dial>the egg style lug shape, no idea what the correct term isany ideas? quartz preferred, but I could settle for an automatic. my best guess is going on an ebay hunt, but there's just too much crap to look at
>>18513750>>18513789I thought you said voluptuous black woman. that would have been funny.
>>18513360I wouldn't mind if it were a nato that color but the huge grommets and thickness of the cloth just looks bad to me. on someone else I'm pretty sure I wouldn't even notice but I couldn't do it for me where I'd see it all the time
>>18513835this >>1851302 looks like a copy of your pic.
>>18513866weird, it says it's deleted but it's still visible to me. must be cached in my browser but why would anon delete it?
nvm I seem to have deleted the final number before this is like an exact copy of the Waltham >>18513021
>>18513835Mine is the seiko snxs75. I got it on ebay for like 110 bucks. The thing is I changed the stock bracelet because it was so cheap and flimsy to an uncle jubilee bracelet and it looks and feels so much better. Quite a few times people thought it was a rollie.
>>18500589titanium tissot with sapphire glass looks great for being pretty much unbreakable. i have no idea how the glass on mine barely has any dents after the horrible abuse ive put mine through over 15 years. ive even worn it while working as an apprentice carpenter and honestly kinda surprised it survived that>>18500686>>18500088tacky
>>18513835well those cheap seiko does have cases like this but it might sit high on the wrist if u want 8mm look for quartz
>>18513866>>18513871thanks, I had a look and found something I might try. It's cool because they have 36mm mostly. now I'm wondering how hard it would be to replace the dial.>>18513895nice!>>18513971thanks, might give it a try.
>>18511511My favorite strap is now my FKM rubber.Everything else is either too scratchy, rough, or sharp.Try one out.You'll never look back.
>>18514148I never looked back. They're nice.
>change watch bracelet>spring bar flies like it never existed
>>18510741$500 is the new $250
My first watch was a white dial Orient Bambino which I got about 5 years ago. At the time I knew absolutely nothing about watches and bought it without thinking about versatility or how often I would realistically have the opportunity to wear a dress watch. As a result it gets very little wrist-time despite still enjoying it. Has anyone had success swapping out the leather strap for something more casual so it doesnt look out of place with a tshirt/jeans/sneakers?
>>18515689I wore my dress watch with a brown leather strap on Saturday with shorts and a Hawaiian shirt to a big gathering.it looked good to me. I doubt anyone else even noticed.
watches that give cold war / east berlin vibes?
>>18515711It's the sneakers I think that make the watch seem out of place. I'll wear it sometimes with shorts/sandals/button downs and I think it looks fine in that context
>>18515725Just go to aliex and check the diff selections of staps and bracelets. Put your watch on the screen and check if the strap goes well with your sneakers.
NH35 has increase in price.
>cheap>functional>indestructible its the king of watches under $100
>>18515873Why though. If you need something just to tell time you look at your phone.Also it is not idestructible, quartz doesnt work at low temperatures.
>>18515873Might as well go for the GWM5610 for the solar charge and satellite sync, or the Skmei 1628 for the price.
>>18515725ya, I had sandals on. in colder weather I wear clarks etc. I seldom wear sneakers. agree that would be more awkward but I think they're so normalized, people wear them with suits now. they're wrong, of course, but sneakers with a dress watch would go unnoticed by everyone but you and I, I'd bet.
>>18515689Is it the big or small Bambino? The 40.5mm one has this odd 21mm lug width, while the 38.5mm one (like the Seiko Cocktail time) has the 20mm which is good.
are there any cheap digitial watches that show AM/PM and military time simultaneouslyi am retarded and got a job that uses military time and dont want to do the maths everytime i read the timeit can look ugly as fuck but id prefer if it looked like the casio terrorist watches
>>18516678Something like a cheap quartz military field watch, but not digital. My cheap Skmei has the option to cycle from 12 or 24 hr time just by the presser on the right side, per press, so it's still limited.
>>18510741I always took poorfag to just mean no luxury watches like Rolex, Omega, Grand Seiko, etc. since those end up dominating the regular threads.
>>18499003The 2012-2016 peak Seiko 5 era is starting to get genuinely nostalgic fucking kill me
>>18500834Peak aliexpress kinoThis thing is to chink shitters what the duro is to jap shitters. I say this while not even owning one kek. I might just grab one of each color
>>18511897Get a militado field watch
>>18515886Why the fuck would you prefer an item that costs 4-10x the cost of a G-Shock, runs out of battery, dies if it gets wet, and cracks easy as your timepiece? You look like a fool, trying to dig your Boost Mobile pay-by-month special out of your pants pocket and tactlessly thumb at your screen just to tell the time. You realize that, right?>temp sensitivity Phones get hot too. They die when that shit happens.
Yeah look at these classics I inherited
Deep discount on scamazon UK right now. Had to take out 4 links for my 7 inch wrists which was infuriating. The pins do not want to come out. The crown is pretty bad too if you have short nails like me. Absolutely gorgeous though.
>>18516869it's shit. 361 is ok but that is not.
>>18517136how does it feel on your wrist? since it's fat and all.
>>18517134based two tone enjooyer
Y/N?
>>18516674It's the one with 21mm lugs. Was considering a milanese bracelet or some kind of fabric strap. Nato would probably look stupid
>>18517474Web search 'white Bambino with nylon strap', or milanese, or sailcloth. Get a strap with a thin buckle style.
>>18517204Feels absolutely fine. Watch doesn't feel fat and bracelet hasn't pinched any hair.
Looks like I asked in the wrong thread initially, repostan here:Please suggest some watches for:>budgetNo more than a couple hundred $>brandAny, really, though I imagine there's not much choice under that budget>watch typeSomething simple and subtle, ideally also versatile i.e. can be seen as casual or reasonably dressy depending on the band.>movementProbably only quartz at that price?>featuresNone aside from a second hand, the cleaner the face the better.>strapInterchangeable, ideally something that can take 2 or more of nylon, strap, milanese mesh or link bracelet.>wrist size17cmThough if I'm entirely honest, I'm eyeing up Galaxy Watch 6 Classic 43mm instead of a "real" watch to replace my fit bit with something I can wear in the gym/on a run, in the office to stay on top of messages and whatnot, and on a night out drinking.
just got a crazy ideawhat if ... citizen tsuyosa but quartz !similar design integrated etc but slimmer!
>>18516012It's not satellite, it is multi band 6I have one (5610u), and I really like it
>>18516678Practically any Casio will do You only need to press one button to switch between 12 and 24 hoursSo if you need to know one time, press the button, then press it again to switch back
>>18517948That's what I'm wearing today
>>18517833Get a smartwatch again since you already know what you want.
>>18518172I'm a little concerned about the size for that particular one. Will a 43mm face and 49.5mm lug to lug (lugs curve down a little) look okay on a 17cm wrist?
>>18518301I have a 17cm wrist and the 44mm Citizen Promaster Marine I have has a lug to lug of 48mm. It doesn't look too big since it has an external rotating bezel that makes the inner dial look smaller. But without the bezel, it'll look big.But since that's a smart watch, it has a free pass of being big. Better try one out and do a mirror shot.
>>18518029Looks like a hog's limb.
>>18516012Are chinkmei watches actually good? I was thinking on getting their gshock knock off but I couldn't find any reviews that talk about its durability
>>18518538>chink>goodno ofc
what watch is this?
>>18518538they're so cheap just get one
>>18517460Yeah, but at a good price
>>18518819
how much can i get for new casio cordura strap with adapters?
picked up for $325
Ordered a metal bracelet off strapsco to replace my shit stock SARB strap but it runs big and needs a link removed, and the clasp keeps popping open. Did I order a piece of shit or can it be adjusted?
>>18519155Looks like they fucked the lugs trying to fit a bracelet that's too big.
>>18519184hmm, now that you mention it, it does look a bit off in the photo. Here is another angle. What do you think?
>>18519188looks a little sus bottom right, but looks ok from the front.

Got this Sanda 1108 for $8. I opened it up and it has a Sunon 897S which might be one of the cheapest movements out there.
>>18513021There's a lot of quite nice looking old school chinese watches, Good-stuffs has a lot of random domestic chinese watches that aren't just clones of the west
>>18513021It's honestly kind of cool. Like something a low level triad goon would wear.
>>18520207it's probably cheaper than changing the battery on the $100 watch
>>18520252>The fluorescent orange dot simultaneously masks and draws attention to this imperfection.lol they're are laughing to our faces with every sentenceI like the strap though
>>18498919Hey /PSWT/Is there anything out there that actually looks like this?
>>18521116Yes, there are watches that look like dive watches, they are called dive watches.
>>18521145Yeah but specifically - dark blue/black bezelplain white dialbaton markers
>>18521149Is this baton enough?
>>18520985Never heard of this website before. They have a non-chrono automatic version of the 1963 on there, had no idea that even existed. Honestly very tempting
>>18521173Never seen that before either... that's quite nice honestly
>>18521173>>18521238wow, cool
>>18521238man that's a dope piece what's the price point and it's automatic right?
>>18521360$160 on that good-stuffs website, I'm strongly considering ordering one but the fact that I can't find any info about it online (like, absolutely zero) is making me hesitate. Maybe someone else here will have better luck than me.
Please rate my modest poorfag collection.
>>18521360>>18521378it's cheap enough that I'd buy one and not think twice about it, desu I think i'd prefer it if it was handwound
>>18499720My boderry has everything I want yet Im not in love with it. May be my consoomerism faggotry but it just doesn’t scratch the Hamilton Khaki itch. I even love the orange details on it, and still…
>>18521173>>18521238>>18521360>>18521378>>18521399Fuck it, I ordered one. Hopefully it at least keeps decent time
Aliexpress is doing sale rn, go buy watchdives wd0003, you won't regret.The chinese brands are starting to catch up on the miyota 9xxx hype train, avoid san martin for now, how could anyone in their right mind drop $400 on a San martin, when Citizen is offering NB1050 which uses the same movement, share a similar price, and has better overall spec. That watch is referred to as the 'baby GS killer' by japanese for a good reason.
>>18522308they usually don't oil these
got 2 4r3x watches now i see i over spend $499 cos real price is 149-199 never again
>>18522452Lol you could get this for 500.
Got a women's Casio tank for 60 euro and loving it. Doesn't feel small even though it's 31x22 and my wrist is like 17.5cm/7 inches. It's too comfortable.
>>18522460but why would I ?
>>18522494>casio>comfortable
Picked this up for £80 for my outdoorsy beater watch as I was getting bored of wearing gshocks
>>18522543It's like 50g and you just forget it's there.
>>18498919What's the sub 150€ equivalent of the Stowa Classic 36? Brands like Addiesdive and San Martin have a few options, but they're too big.
Hear me out, guys. Following the cheapo-chinese rabbit hole I found this one alternative to Militado and Rdunae for around 30€ (post discount code):https://militrek.com/products/militrek-field-quartz-men-watch-37mm-vh31-movement-100m-waterproof-green?variant=51931941011823https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyEW6LXwIJ4>37mm>VH31>Sapphire dome>100mThoughts? Sounds like a good choice to me.
>>18522578if ur gonna get a chinese shitter dont get a fake/homage, this is just a hamilton khaki clone so you'll have watch guys coming up to you going "oh is that a hamilton khaki" and then you have to awkwardly say no
>>18522543Horrible bait Rakesh.
>>18517203I take this back but still for the same cash you can get a nicer dial with a bracelet you can wear.
>>18522584How many times has this scenario happened to you outside of your head?
love my srpg03
>>18522584It's a GG-W-113, mate. It could be a Hamilton, Benrus, Bulova...
>>18522584That only happens within these basket weaving gay watch threads. It doesn't happen in reality, and even if it does, no one gives a shit after a blink of an eye.
Vostok Amphibian Classic 13003B? This Russian shit is cheap but I know nothing about them
>>18523463Shit forgot to attach image

Behold the king of cheap chink shit. Mechanical hand wound movement, steel case, leather strap, applied markers and raised crystal (albeit acrylic).Cost me 18€ shipping included.
>>18526422It was 18 euros too expensive
>>18517460Are your wrists brown enough to pull that off?
What cheap clone works best as a gada watch? I really only care about the versatility of matching the watch to the most amount of outfits>Explorer clone>Murph clone>Aqua terra cloneAlso if going for the aqua terra copy, would blue be a better option than black?
>>18526494F91
>>18526494Meh, safest is Explorer or Murph. Black either way, can't go wrong with black.
$230 Black Bay 54 RepRuns at +1 second a day and the T-Fit clasp micro adjustment works great on it.
Hello fellow high schoolers. I'll be going to college next year and I would like to start looking out for a watch to wear. Please suggest me some watches brands worn by men. I was thinking Tudor, Citizen, Seiko, is that good ? Which color of NATO strap should I chose to send the message that I'm grown up ? Taking all your suggestions. This thread is a golden nugget of knowledge.Regards,Richard.
whcih seiko gmt 5 is your favorite
>>18528220>gmtIll never understand why these are so popular.. do that many people really need a watch with 2 time zones? Or do people just think they're cool? I like very legible watches so anything that makes them more difficult/take longer to read does not appeal to me
>>18528344I have a Casio world timer and the only time it was useful was for checking what the time is for my burgeranon frens so i knew when to post on 4.
>>18528344It's basically a way to flex on people as a status thing>eg Im so important I travel for my job/I can afford to travel a lot and need an expensive watch with a dumb feature to flex on poor's.>>18528527I love mine and its scary we do the same thing anon hahaha
Anything similar that won't cost an arm and a leg?
Casio aq230 most fa budget watch?
who makes the better hulk clone, pagani or loreo?
>>18530219
>>18530221san martin has one too!
>>18526501The only good murph clone is the escapement time one and it's quartz and 36mm only. So only for people with very tiny wrists.
>>18522584I wear a $56 addiesdive khaki knockoff everyday and nobody has ever commented on it or my pagani speedmaster or on my sugess top time
>>18530219Is this a fucking joke? You are asking if a watch that bears the words "upereative ohponometf" on a dial is good?
>>18530279I assume that's a rendering from AI
>>18530244What makes it better than the ML08? They have the same VH31 movement
*cures your watch hopping*
>>18529782Some $7 excrement from aliexpress, will probably look better than that shit too
>>18530239Man I wish I didn't hate the san martin logo so much
>>18530349Too empty, they should have released a version with their nicer logo instead
>>18530324The hands aren't right on the militado one.
>>18530349for me, it's this one
>>18522584I get compliments on my Steeldive turtle and Trans Shartin flieger all the time. Nobody irl knows what an homage is, people see a watch and they're like hey nice watch
>*cures your watch (s)hopping*I just copped both of these, they seem to satisfy my urges.
>casio a168>rolex explorer>cartier tank Let me guess, you need more?
>>18530756Square G-shock, Marlin on bracelet, and a Casio tank is all you need.
>>18530757(ladies) seiko tank is better
>>18530757This is the only collection you "need" and it's under 200 total. Everything else is just you getting into the consumerism of the "hobby".

These tariffs destroyed ali express.
>>18530755I love it. Nothing beats a classic Seiko 5. I’ve got a similar pair of SNXS models with a silver and dark dial.
>no variance because its digital>0 ± 0 seconds per day variation>people who see you wearing it know you're not fucking around
>>18531091I was watching Napoleon Dynamite last night and he was wearing an F91W-1 in almost every scene whereas Uncle Rico was wearing an A158WA in every scene.
>>18530878It's not big for me.

is it effay?
>>18528187clone fag
>>18528187I hate how many tudor watches use dots for the hour indicators, it looks like shit
>>18531263You might want to actually tighten your watch instead of wearing it so lose, and maybe try to wear it before your wristbone like you are supposed to. You know that watches are supposed to be sized in regards to your wrist instead of your bicep right? You realize that this picture makes you look like a retard that doesn't know how to properly wear a watch, let alone know big said watch should be?
>>18528187Based and fat guy pilled
>>18531332I like the case but a circular digital casio just feels wrong
>>18531062Yes, and nice SNXS twins you have. I really like this reissue design and the wearability is good. Plus it has 20mm lug width so my aftermarket straps fit.
>>18498919>gotta buy a bunch of cheap, shitty watches to "build a reputation" with a watch storefuck this shitty hobby
>>18522573Fliegers are supposed to be fuckhuge anon.
>>18531370I know you have never exercised but if you did you'd learn that having something tightly wrapped around your appendages which overflow with blood doesn't feel great.
>>18531659Tightly wrapped... Are you genuinely stupid? You clearly don't know how to properly wear a watch, which is just about the simplest thing in the world. Please just leave and stop ridiculing yourself.
>>18531652When will they fucking learn?
>>18522308Really curious about this anon, I've been thinking about getting some random Vager Hauers shitter from this website for ages but never bit the bullet
On the bone, below the bone or above the bone?
>>18531828On the croc
>>18531881Surprised shoefags haven't started wearing watches on their shoes yet
Been wearing my new 1963 all weekend. It runs around -5 seconds a day which is honestly much better than anticipated. The (surprisingly high quality) strap and movement both appear to be genuine sea-gull parts as well. The weakest part of the watch I'm noticing is the finishing on the case is poor, especially around the bezel area. Aside from that small detail it feels more like a 300-400 dollar watch. >>18531799Definitely happy with my purchase, the website is legit.
>>18531899I may cop....
>>18531899It's not 1963 and it looks wrong all over, even indices.
>>18531905it's a different model you fucking black nigger
>>18531907You seem retarded, a different model would be not 1963, as 1963 is the model name. It is like if you posted this explorer and said check out my daytona and i when politely say that it is in fact not daytona you go into retard rage.tldr you should kill yourself so your parents can breathe freely.
>>18531912Says 1963 on the caseback bud
>>18531915And i say you should have been left as a cum stain on your moms curtains but here we are.
>>18531912seagull calls it a 1963, therefore it is a 1963.
>>18531905>>18531899So it's a copy of the ETA 2824, which is the same movement as the Hamilton Khaki Field Auto... Very cool
>>18531899those hands are painted, right? or are they actually blued?cool watch either way
>>18531905They make a bunch of different watches labeled as the 1963, the chronograph is just the most popular one.Anon seems to have this onehttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009217824496.html
>>18531828For me is has to being loose and floppy
>>18532192Yeah but what about watches?
>>18532191Or if he's unlucky it's this onehttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008822332168.htmlBut the rim looks different
>>18513021I got mine for 18€, posted it here >>18526422But here's the mechanism, seems to be the chink standard movement. Very stiff to wind, especially with the small crown.
>>18532194I thought we were measuring penines from which angle, no?
>check aliex>a lot of watch, bracelet and strap options to choose from>shipping fee: $20 per item>give up browsingyou watch fags in the west have it easy don't you?
>>18532271Sorry about you being brazilian.
>>18532271it's all garbage you're not missing much
>>18532271Temu is also lacking selections.
>>18532132They're definitely painted, I don't know of any watches under 1000 that have real heat-blued hands
>>18532199Do the Chinese make their own hairsprings?
>>18532773Probably
>>18532773They probably make most """swiss""" hairsprings considering they have the lowest standards for domestic manufacturing labeling in the developed world
Rate my Tissot shitter.
>>18515724Growing up is realising these people were boring as fuck.
So let me get this straight >/wt/Original watch general, now filled with shitposting and avatarfags>/nawt/The "serious" general, has slightly less shitposts>/pswt/A combination of both for poor people Jesus do we really need a million watch threads in this board?
>>18533639watches (over $200) are mental illness so it's not surprising turn of events
>>18533639Have you seen the state of the rest of the board? The watch threads probably account for 90% of the traffic here. At least in this thread people are mostly civil and compliment each other's watches instead of lashing out at each other like violent retards
>>18533639No one cares about fashion, watches are cool and neat and this is the board where you're supposed to discuss them.
>>18533693I don't care about fashion but I do care about materials, utility, and quality clothes.
>>18533716I can agree with that
>>18530652The proportions of this are not great. Tandorio seems to just slap things together interchangeably with all the parts available for you to put together yourself.
Timex just shit out a bunch of new Marlin Jet colorways, with a few quartz models among them.
>>18533639im contemplating making /uuwt/, ultimate unfiltered watch thread, that would include everything and eventually be successor to all of the above
