>>18576179This thread was made first.
>>18576208and boy, is it a lively one!
>>18576320Better slow than a shit show.
So whats the deal with expensive watches over - let's say 10k USD. Would you even wear something like this daily or only on special occasions?
>>18576865Those watches are meant to be worn daily.If you feel like you need to "preserve" your watch, or you fear you might get robbed, then your lifestyle and net worth aren't compatible with a watch like this.You might be able to buy it, but it's still actually out of your budget. Only buy watches you could lose and replace without issue.
>>18576865You’d wear it with the Gucci loafers you’ll never post.
>>18576865trinklets
>>18576865Depends how it looks and how delicate it is.
wwyd?
>>18576850You made the last thread a shitshow yourself Bittercel.
>>18577869trash the ctizen and the orient
>>18577869NGL, the Orient actually looks better than the Rolex.
>>18577869Rehautbros...
Give me an interesting dress watch at 500 since I'm just some poorfag poser. Would the RW Maestro work?
>>18577913>>18568612 These guys will be able to help you. All you’ll get here is some bitter basement dweller (the OP) screaming at you for being poor.
>>18577913Get a 50€ Braun quartz and keep saving.
>>18577929lmfao yeah your watch is made by the same company that made your coffee maker poorfag
>>18577871>>18577925Stop trying to false flag, bitterturd.
>>18577869Keep the Orient, sell the rest.
>>18577938Bittercel doesn’t seem to realize that his posts have a very distinctive style and he’s very easy to recognize.But, whatever. He’s infested this thread, so I’ll just wait for the next one. Hopefully he’ll be banned by that time.
>>18577929This watch is incredibly scrappy, even for 50 eupesos.
Bros, just give it to me straight: is it true that when you walk into the Rolex boutique the Rolex lady will offer you a glass of her own piss?? Please wtf help I need to know
>>18578003Offer? Oh nononono. You have to beg for the piss. You have to work to earn the glass of piss.A humiliation ritual only works if you are humiliated. You can’t just tough it out and keep your dignity intact.So once you’re done begging and they feel you’ve appropriately debased yourself, they’ll offer you a watch. Not the watch you want, a different watch, a shitty watch. You have to buy it and smile and tell them you love it.You will look at the misaligned rehaut and observe its terrible amplitude and be reminded that you’re only part way through the ritual.But in the end, you will get to buy the Daytona you really wanted and you can throw your shitty OP/DJ/Exp1 into the river.
>>18577869Replace the missing 12 marker on the Explorer with the one from the Orient to get a complete dial.
>>18578018I don't want a Daytona, I want piss.
>>18578025German?

You might not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.
>>18578064Bottom left is a decent GO cope
>>18576142Next purchase will be a black tsuyosa with the rainbow dials. I thought these were a bit queer looking, but I got the light blue with a rainbow dial and it just brilliantly shines, you'd never notice the rainbow coloring unless you look at it dead on, in the right lighting.
>>18578077hell yeah, sister. let us all know how it works out.
This is a long shot, but I'm searching for the model of watch my grandfather gave me in 2000, which I lost.It was an analog watch with a small digital dial for a second time zone. It had protective plastic bars at the top and bottom over the crystal.It was not a Casio, probably some fashion brand.Color scheme was black and yellow, with a black fabric strap with yellow stitching.
>>18578072>Nomos Lamda Roségold>GO copeget the fuck out
>>18578107agree to disagree, bittercel.
>>18578025Based.
Reminder that Bittercel is obsessed with a guy who posted for a few weeks over three years ago. That guy gave him the name Bittercel and it completely broke his mind. Remember that and picture him sobbing with every nasty thing he posts because some guy gave him a name and then left. (Like his dad)
>>18578025are you me?!
>>18578128This. He's obsessed with pretty much every avatarfag, but reversocel was his nemesis for reasons unknown. He still hasn't recovered from that.
>>18578150It’s for two reasons: he gave him the name Bittercel, after that, Bittercel started putting -cel after everything to try and water down the devastation he felt at his own name; and, secondly, he left. He forever robbed Bittercel of the chance to troll every pic the Reverso guy posted.
>>18578077If it's a 40mm, I rec a 7" wrist as a minimum. If not get a 37mm instead.t. has 40mm tsuyosa with less than 7" wrist
>>18578064The dials are getting worse with newer models as they do more and more single-surface dials, going all-in on their entry-level collections. They're looking cheaper and cheaper as time goes.
>>18578025Biggest red pill in history
Bittercel killed nawt.
>>18578732Bittercel was never part of nawt. nawt was created to get away from him and his tantrums as much as it was created to get away from the avatarfags’ circlejerk.He’s tried to lay his eggs of bitterness in nawt but he has failed.
Why are there always so many watch threads? Can't you fuckers stay in one thread, you all like the same accessory.

>>18580665Yes, his unceasing bitchiness was the catalyst for the thread split.Honestly, I’m curious as to what he’s even getting out of this. He clearly doesn’t like watches. He just shows up to try and make people miserable? What kind of life is that?

>>18581081after more digging: Citizen and Orient also have this kind of date window. Citizen has some similar designs, but I was not able to find that model yet.Sort of related question: found a vintage Seiko 5 that hits this vibe, but the internals look way too degraded to use it. The case and bracelet are still good, so how realistic is it to replace the crystal, dial and movement with that of a modern Seiko 5?
>>18588794Meh, not worth it. Save a couple hundred more that will get you a much better watch.

>>18578064>>18578602They are the worst take on Bauhaus.Junghans is the good take, the original take, it's minimalist but elegant.HOMOS are plain Jane, cheap and toy like. Big plates with no ergonomy.Also, i see people posting photos of these watches but it's rarely on someone's wrist.

>>18612497I was rich at one point, I've been knocked down a few pegs by life. Luckily I bought this Rolex during my rich era and I don't feel like selling it so now I get maximum enjoyment out of it by flexing it on poor 3rd worlders on 4chan.
>>18612979looks like you need to knock a few million calories out of your life too
>>18613029That’s what this is for
>>18613029>>18613136Already lost 10 kilos in 2 months on this stuff.
>>18612979Sad. I hope you lose the weight. But I'm glad you're not rich anymore. You make me embarrassed to be white. P.S. You need to have that watch band taken out. You've gotten fatter since it was fitted to you.
>>18613170I like how the watch fits now, you just caught me at a weird angle because I'm bending my wrist around to get a good photo with a lot of light reflecting off the rolex logo
>>18610313>BBCs has been sent your locatin
>>18613136Holy fucking based.
>>18576142Holy shit, OP. Does Casio actually make that? From a distance it looks like one of those really expensive watches. Why do so many watches look so similar to one another?Or is that hundreds of dollars too?
>>18576142Walmart wants $94 for it but I found these cheaper on Amazon. I should have gotten one of these instead of the Berny or the used Seiko.
>>18613269And I like the cheaper one on the right better anyway. The day so prominent at the top bugs me when I could have it small there by the date. I guess it boils down to how you like the balance and the symmetry. I could really live with either. I'm definitely going to get one of them eventually.
I'm learning that Casio just has their own version of every watch. And that's fucking cool.
This is pretty cool too.A guy could do pretty well just collecting Casio. It's affordable that way. Every month get a $40-$90 watch and every year some really crazy $150 one.
Armitrons are really inexpensive. I had one back in the 90s.
>>18613295
>>18613256I have a problem, I buy a solution. Simple as. Only regret is not getting on the stuff sooner.
>>18613302>I buy a solution. The correct solution was to buy a pair of running shoes, fatso.Enjoy being on the shit the rest of your life, because it turns out that when people get off the fat shot, they immediately gain it all back. Lmfao!
>>18613322Don't listen to this nig, fatfag.stay on the solution and simple adjust your intake and monitor daily afterwards, it will stay down. Always monitor it.
A Sevenfriday knockoff on Aliexpress cought my eye, but I'm a bit concerned about the 47 mm case size as I have slim wrists. Will I look like gigantic faggot wearing something this big on my wrist or should it be ok? Also, has anyone here had a similar style watch and if so, what are your impressions on aesthetics, utility and convenience?
>>18613346I think I have pretty small wrists and I'd never wear a 47mm. Especially one that looks like that. It'd be a cool thing for Halloween if you were dressed as a weird time travel dork or something. Otherwise you'd need enormous wrists to pull that off. I don't even know why they make that shit. This is a 47mm Invicta I retardedly bought 5 years ago when I didn't know anything about watches or sizes. It clearly looks ridiculous. I can get away with 40 but I feel best as a 38mm man. Never again with this 'dinner plate' shit, as some anon called it. It may fly in some circles, but I'm sure everyone I know would consider this huge blue thing douchey. I know I do.
>>18613346Not that I don't like that as a design. I think it'd be great hanging from a rearview mirror or affixed to a backpack. It just doesn't work for me as a wristwatch.
>>18613336Nope. The drug eliminates hunger. It doesn’t teach good lifestyle habits. As soon as they get off the drug, the hunger returns.Think about it critically: why would anyone want to make a weight loss drug that worked when they could, instead, make a drug that users stay permanently dependent on?
I want to get this videogame watch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timex_DatalinkSuper fucking cool. Conspiratards and flat earthers need not read this.
I hope my watch obsession subsides. I keep reading about and watching about and buying watches.
>>18613379The easiest way to get over a watch obsession is to buy a Rolex, realize it's all you'll ever need or want to wear, and get rid of everything else except an inexpensive dress watch for the twice a year you wear a tuxedo. For some people this works with an Omega or a Grand Seiko, but usually it's a Rolex.
>>18613387Ew. No. No interest whatsoever in Rolex.
>>18613416Say "I can't afford a Rolex" without saying you can't afford a Rolex
>>18613436You really can't possibly believe someone would not want a Rolex. You're so far up the brands' asses. Very pathetic.
>>18613453I totally believe that there are people that genuinely don't want a Rolex. I just don't believe you are one of them. I think you're just full of cope because you are poor. If that makes me pathetic, fine. I'd rather be pathetic and rich than poor and, well, you.
>>18613464I can't afford a Rolex either. But my taste wouldn't change if I did. It's pretty generic that you think Rolex is the king of watches that all watch enthusiasts should aspire to having. Very ordinary and uneducated opinion. I'm sure you're "rich". Actual rich people just LOVE Rolex. And I'm so very envious of you pretending to have one and be rich. Because people whose dads made money are better than me. I bow to you and your refined taste in Rolex watches.
>just get a rolex and you won't like watches anymore!Great advice. However you must be 18 to post here.
>>18613469>>18613470Cope more.
>>18613387> For some people this works with an Omega or a Grand SeikoThis works for literally no one. Omega and GS only exist to be Rolex copes.

What does "avatarfag" mean?
>>18613955Avaturdfaggot.
>>18614311That isn't helpful.
>>18614318It's a combination avatar (as in the movie), tard/turd (retard/feces) and fag (homosexual). It was invented by bittercel to project his alien homosexual scat fetisism onto others.
>>18614320What's it have to do with WATCHES? This is why I don't believe you.
>>18614348>What's it have to do with WATCHESAbsolutely nothing. Bittercel is an odd one among the /wt/ avatarfags, he genuinely hates watches and owns none.
>>18613475I was baited into actually posting my bank statement last night, so I proved I'm not poor but I'm not rich either. I could afford a Rolex but I'm not going to get one. I'm not "coping". Look what having a Rolex has done to you. You're a complete asshole about it. You admit you're a fat failure who once had it all, but you still cannot find humility because that watch makes you so much better than everyone. And your phd in math.I'm sure there's some part of your mathematical brain that could understand how someone could think Rolex is not a wise expenditure. And even if I was rich, I wouldn't ever want that dumb diver watch. It's so generic by now. Every watch looks like that. I really hope you find a better way to feel good about yourself.
>>18614380>I was baited into actually posting my bank statement last nightKEKBittercel finally pulled one off! Congrats to the boy.
>>18609983They don't look that big when they're on a resin or leather strap.
I got this little cutie at an estate sale for very cheap because the lady refused to take anything over $500. I haggled her up to $800, got it checked by rolex and it's authentic. Feels good boys. Rolex offered to clean or replace the dial with next service. Now I just need a nice leather strap bc fuck $3700 for a bracelet
>>18615634Don't replace the dial; get some authentic end-links and a generic / rep bracelet
>>18615634You got a great deal whether you decide to add a strap or bracelet (I suspect this takes a 73850 with 19mm endlinks). I'd say this is a really great daily beater, please wear it instead of letting it rot on a shelf.
>>18615653Seiko Daytona, love it.
>>18615653Shitko Gaytona
>>18614380>I could afford a Rolex but I'm not going to get one.You will just think about getting one, months after months, years after years.
>>18616796This is why I just went out and got a Rolex as one of my first watches. I still think about watches, but now I compare them to my Rolex and ask, "do any of these watches add something my Rolex doesn't already have"? This way I've kept my "collection" down to a mere 4 watches and I probably won't get anymore, though I still like to learn about watches.
>>18616796>>18616797Rolex is gay and I will never want one. Yes I can afford it but I don't think watches are worth so much money and Rolexes just don't look good to me. Not everyone likes the same thing. Accept that or don't. How can you not find it a little cliche to be fellating Rolex of all brands? The most generic of the "luxury" watches anyway.
>>18576142That's pretty cool. That looks the same as plenty of higher end watches. Probably going for the Seiko look specifically. Very nice. Is it a quartz for $60 or like a $150 mechanical?
>>18603752He responded to a superchat asking if it was a Breitling; Nick said it's a Citizen, also he said he has like 10 other watches but hasn't got to size them.
Just in time for Christmas. I love this watch. It is so choice. If you have the means I highly recommend picking one up.

If you buy a watch that cost more than 50, you are retarded. Nowadays you can get a decent timepiece for a dime
How did you guys spend Christmas?
>>18576142Merry Christmas to me. >>18615560
>>18620721Oops, didn’t mean to reply to that guys comment. Have another picture.
I cannot remember what model we got but my wife is obsessed with this watch I got her for Christmas, it's very comfortable and the envy of the other girls at her school so I'm told.
>>18620721>>18620724Finally a PROPER watch around here, congrats anon. That's a sick fucking timepiece.
>>18620732Thank you so much, anon! I appreciate your kind words. May the universe allow you to soon own a similar timepiece in the near future!
>>18619906Cofe time indeed
>>18620371I'm with you. Shitters are fine. There are great ones and not so great, but the prices are all amazing.
>>18620721>>18620724Ooof! Gay. I always wondered who bought those silly kinds of watches. Hope it didn't run you more than $75.
>>18620371>chrome platedno thanks, i want stainless steel cased watches
>>18620827The figures in which this piece ran me are numbers the likes of which you will never see in your entire life. Keep on coping, keep on being spiteful. Most importantly of all, enjoy your Omega.
>>18620895Coping? Spiteful?You refuse to believe people are unimpressed with that monstrocity I guess. lolYou blow your money however you like, bub. I'm sure that will get you a lot of respect in your social circles of fantasy.
>>18620895>numbers the likes of which you will never see in your entire life.Making payments on an Invicta that costs as much as a starter home: the big 2026 flex>hairless arms
>>18613475Is it just me or does this Rolex look dusty/dirty?
>>18620917lol, yeah he's all smooth like a seal. It's definitely a watch for a guy who shaves his(?) arms. Cope and be spiteful. You will never see those there numbers. Not the likes of them figures. Not in your entire life. And neither will I. How ever will I cope with that?
>>18613372I pulled that watch out of a hoarder house clean out
>>18615653this is the watch a hero wears, this and a casio 91
>>18609983Am in the sane boat. I want something vaporwave/cyberpunk-y.I feel I might be limited by a 13.2 cm wrists... but that's ironically why I'm looking at a dumb watch. I have anorexia and my Apple Watch keeps me in the maladaptive, gamification feedback loops of AN (step count, calorie burn, and my favorite: low heart rate notifications). Getting a Casio would be tantamount to the scene in Easy Rider where Peter Fonda tosses his watch in rejection of conventional society, schedules, and the "time-bound" world he was leaving behind for a life of freedom on the open road.Am considering:A1100DBC-611A100WEA120WEA500WACA-53WFCA-500WEDB-360DBC-32
>>18621424Don't post that shit here. That's not a watch.
>>18613479Omega works well enough for some, especially those who see James Bond as the epitome of a man.You're right about GS though; they are pure cope (even though spring drive is a cool movement).
Imagine all the waste that those awful seconde seconde collabs are generatingPerfectly fine watches desecrated by some stupid emoji face to make a quick buck from that guy's short time in the spotlightPretty much the opposite of what a mechanical watch should be
>>18576142Which one should I buy?Casio A120WE‑1AVT Casio A130WE‑1A Casio A500WGA-9DF
I'm looking for a modern equivalent of one of these omega cushion case day date watches. What is the closest thing I can get, preferably without spending a lot of money if possible?
>>18622085
Should I get this?
>>18622420$450. Holy lord. If you can afford it and you like it that much, go for it. Treat yourself. That's a goddamn beautiful watch. Too big for me and I'd have a hell of a time paying that for quartz, but it's going to be light and thin as hell because of it and I'm sure all the other specs are top notch at that price with quartz. They'd better fucking be. Chronos look so cool, and that one is just flawless, plus green is my color. But I know I would just never use the chrono features for anything. I still own one, but I never use it. So I'd almost buy that watch on looks alone if it weren't so large. Of course I love that shape the best, where the dial extends the whole case and the lugs are hardly noticeable. That's my favorite look by far. So many look like the two posted above you. They're okay too sometimes if they're not too big. If your chrono there was $350 and 40mm wild horses couldn't keep me away. You should definitely get it as soon as they become available again. And that's one of the best watches on the site.Meanwhile I'm in love with this one. I just can't drop so much on a single watch. If I can keep from buying a watch for 40 days I will get it. I just know I can't.
Hnnnngg
>>18622433Wow, it's like the Boy George of watches.
>>18622447More like boy-curious George lmfao.
What is an "Avatarfag"
>>18623386This is an anonymous forum, anybody that can be identified by their images is breaking the rules by being an avatarfag. If /fa/ had any moderation they could be reported.
Guys what do you think about pre-EVO ana-digi Breitlings? Like Avantage etc? Think it's possible that they're still in decent condition?
>>18623391But what images can someone be identified by? You guys never answer these questions with specifics. Just say you don't know.
Tell me about the chrono24 private seller phenomenon of people selling their used watch they've been wearing for two years at a higher price than some shops are even offering it new.Not only is there the risk that they send you a box with a rock inside but they can't even offer a competitive price.In fact I've pretty much never seen a watch sold by a private seller at a decent price, they're always 10% off MSRP at best.
>>18623566For example, the guy who used to post here called OmegaDrunk. He has a set of about twenty pics he took of his watch collection. He always attaches one of those pics to his posts so you know it’s him. He could use a trip code, but he doesn’t want to because he knows he would get filtered instantly.It’s not a traditional avatar (it’s not an anime girl) but it’s still a set of pictures designed to act as a signature.How much more specific do you need me to be?
>>18623901>a set of about twenty pics he took of his watch collection. He always attaches one of those pics to his posts so you know it’s himAny anon could have saved those pics and reposted them later, impersonating OmegaDrunk. I know anon(s) have some of Whoretadello's pics saved and they keep reposting them, and i know some anon has a few pics of my watch saved as well, and he keeps reposting it randomly too. We're all anons here, until this board gets IDs the fog of war will continue.
>>18623939>other people can post the same pics.And? Global Rule 13. Rules are rules.
>>18615634You insisted on giving her an extra $300? Weird.
>>18621424> and my favorite: low heart rate notificationsthen maybe do something about it fucking retard. you're not olympic athlete to have hr that low.
avaturd shitters.
I've been really enjoying this Marlin on a mesh strap lately, but I can't escape the feeling in the back of my mind that it's too small for my 7.5" wrist. What do you think?
>>18624347Direct shot, if it helps.

>>18624273Honest question: why do you keep posting shit like this? Just to keep the mods busy banning your faggot ass for spamming?
>>18624106unimaginable right? you fucking rodent
>>18624347>>18624348Doesn't look too small to me. What's the case diameter on it? I've not seen any Marlins with that bezel style. Or is that just how extreme the dome is? The ones I've looked at all have dials to the edge and I think at least 12 and 6.Is that a 38mm or something? If that watch was all dial it'd look fine on your big wrist. Or if the whole thing was a dark color.Weird how that works. Kind of an optical illusion.
>>18624347I'm guessing this is at most 18mm lug width which is why it feels like that. And the strap is even thinner than the actual lug width.I would try it on a padded leather strap if you're unsure, it will definitely add volume.
>>18624565It's 38mm, the Jet Automatic Marlin which has the bezel under the dome. I've never seen anything like it before, which is why it hooked me so much when I first saw it. >>18624672Yeah, 18mm lug width. I'll look into getting a padded leather strap, but part of the reason why I wanted to wear it was how "space age" retro-futurist it looks on a Milanese bracelet. It just feels a little bit too small, unfortunately.
>>18578064In-house movement at that low price point is excellent right? why do people hate it?
>>18613274consider the alternative
>>18625122I like that a lot more. Is it less than $130? Did you post it the other day and say $75? Is that the same one?I need more rectangulars.
>$130 Casio
>>18625127That's cute. You're "above" such silly watches. Meanwhile every single high class watch expert insists no collection is complete without either a $20 F-91W or a Casio calculator watch for $35.Make it make sense, ya snobby incel weeb.
>>18625125Aye, this specific model is the Casio MTP-M306M-1AVcost me 11700 JPY, which roughly translates to $75specifically chose the mesh band just to separate it from my Royale, and gotta say it's real pretty wife likes it, so it's a good

>>18625142kek, you're posting anime. You can't say shit.
>>18625151Its not anime
I already own the first, fifth, and sixth watches here and the other three are ones I want to pick up at some point in the new few months. Which do you think I should make a priority? I'm torn between them.
who makes good stationary? i figured this thread would be good to aski'm a supervisor at my garage now and i have some time on my hands to write more and i'd like a nice notebook
>>18625175Stationery.
>>18625183i'm a mechanic
>>18625157Out of the remaining three only the black Seiko strikes my personal fancy. I don't like gold or anything over 40mm.
>>18624348eh, I see what you mean but that light blue dial looks bigger than it is.it's a really nice looking watch
>>18576142>watch thread>mentions black men raping in the first sentencemutts
>>18625833Freudian slip of his deep subconscious desires by OP obvs
>>18625157Fourth. And skip the second one.
>>18622420I have a sternglas I wear to the symphony sometimes. They're decent bauhaus style watches. I've never had a problem with it. It's much more affordable than a junghans.
>>18626368>I have a sternglas I wear to the symphony sometimes
>>18626441I usually wear the sternglas with tom ford tobacco vanille. Sometimes I'll wear an oud fragrance. I do a single spray on an undershirt so the fragrance isn't too overwhelming. In the warmer months, I like my tudor or tissot watches with a neroli fragrance. All that metal on your wrist gets too cold in winter. Hope this helps you in your watch and fragrance journey
>>18613274I wanna start collecting Casios, for they are made by the Japanese, who are tiny like myself. (5.3")My first toe-dip into watchfaggotry at 19 years old was an $1,000 Tom Kristensen tribute watch by Rosendahl. At 44mm, 47mm lug-to-lug, it screams "try-hard who borrowed dad's watch" and I came to regret it every glance...
I've been obsessing over this $200 citizen for a while now. Like the style and it's 36.5mm which is amazing for my 5.9 /15cm wrists. Tried it twice in Japan a few months ago and liked it, tried it again yesterday and realized how fucking silly the sizing actually looks.I'm now looking for a diver that doesn't look like ass. Seiko's were disappointing and boring, and the last BN026 from citizen will be too big at 40mm.Anyone with good recs is welcome. Max budget 300-ish.
>>18626441You have a mental disorder>>18626763You're too small, dive watches aren't small
there are no midsize drivers in mainstream jew brands anymoreyou have to go san martin or thorn or another ali brand
>>18626763Orient Kamasu, Lorier Neptune, Aquatico Seastar/Expedition, or some Seiko 5 diver would be your best choices.
>>18626562Wrist shot plz
>>18626751Ooof.You know better now. Get something that fits.
>>18626777>jewWhat the fuck are you talking about?
>>18626763What's silly about the size? It should fit like a glove on you. Even on bigger wrists 36-38mm watches are criminally underrated. If you're coming in off of 40mm watches and you never wore anything smaller before it's going to feel strange, but once you get used to it you really don't want to look back.
>>18627098I agree with you except look at it. I can't even imagine a diver with a bezel being fucking 36mm. I still need to see that on a wrist or next to a quarter or something because I kind of don't believe it. 38mm is my sweet zone and I like a 36mm for dressy vintage so I wouldn't wear a diver anyway, plus I just don't like them. But why even IS there a 36mm looking like that? It IS silly because it's a 36mm diver! So the fact that it's the only diver I feel I could pull off if I wanted to doesn't subtract from the fact that it shouldn't exist in the first place.
>>18627098I have a 36mm field watch and love the size. But somehow on this diver the dial just felt minuscule.>>18626825Love the Lorier Neptune, I think it sits at 40mm tho and I would have to pay custom taxes. Will check your other recommendations.
>>18622433Wait, why is the minute hand moving so fast?
>>18616829>Yes I can afford it but I don't think watches are worth so much moneyYou don't thing ANY watches are worth the price of a Rolex?
I just don't understand why people think Nomos is better than Junghans. Yeah, Nomos has in house movements and good movement finishing, whatever, but Junghans watches just look so much better and more comfortable. The nomos have flat crystals that meet up 90 degrees with the case sides, the dials are so flat, it's all so sterile and inorganic. I love how the Max Bill looks like a smooth round little pebble. Not to mention Junghans doesn't use comically long lugs.
