What's your grail watch?What's the best in your collection?What would you get with only $300? What would you get with $5,000I've decided my grail watch is not too unattainable. It's the 38mm Hamilton "Murph" Khaki. Perfect versatility, perfect size, well-reviewed Swiss Automatic. I want to wait until it's a little cheaper. Though maybe it will only go up in price. Hard to know.
For $5K I like this one.
>>18655647This. Maybe something vintage though.
And this for $300. Just my first choices off jomashop.

Cool $300 Seiko
>>18655735We have to have a troll. Believe it or not there are people here who get mad when we post images of watches we want to buy and their prices. Not sure what they think the threads should be.
Good evening, gentlemen.
>>18655747I feel sorry for you.
I got a san martin gmt and I've lost interest in watches now
>>18655747A U R A
>>18655751Congratulations.I'm not there yet.
Ended up buying the adapters and putting a nato strap on this watch too.Honestly, after wearing my San Martin for a long time non-stop, I am a bit underwhelmed by the appearance and feel of this G-shock.Now after a whole day of wearing, it feels a bit better.
>>18655738>We have to have a troll.Why? Some Moronic sense of board culture?
>>18655751Is that because you are so satisfied with your watch so no need to seek anything else, or you don't even care about that one?
I read a comment about these disposable watches before I was about to purchase one. Is it true?
>>18655762I'm not saying that like it's a good thing, just the way it is. Of course we don't have to have one. The janitors seem to enjoy it.
Posting my collection again since these threads go so fast.>>18655641>What's your grail watch?Attainable? Tudor bb58 38mm. Luxury diver I don't need. The prices are soft, eventually I will buy one. I have better shit to spend money on right now- just got new struts and tires for my vehicle.Unattainable? Blancpain diver, probably vintage.>What's the best in your collection?Probably the Tissot>What would you get with only $300? Lowball for some vintage seiko divers on ebay>What would you get with $5,000Aforementioned Tudor. Maybe a Speedmaster reduced. re; Hamilton Murph, if you really want one they are not expensive. There are also a million homages. Pretty sure there's a Seiko clone thats under $500 and probably just as good.
>>18655778yes, we get it, you have more money than us
>>18655781You could re create my entire collection for probably less than $1000 on ebay anon. Both seikos prices were shitter territory
Just ordered this box to keep watches in.
>>18655790What the fuck do you guys do for a living? (Don't say coding)
Just ordered this winder thing too.
>>18655799lol, the watches are just photoshopped on there, some more than once and stretched out to look like a new angle. I love stuff like that!
>>18655795I'm unemployed. The box and the auto winder are like $80 combined and most of the watches going in them more or less average that price too. No one here is rich. The people who post snobby takes never post watches they own, and people with one fancy watch usually spam it to death. Yet there's a vocal handful who resent guys like me who buy a lot of budget watches. But I don't pay attention to trolls. I just post watches I'm looking at, watches I've ordered, and then the watches when they show up. That's exactly what these threads are for, ideally. People just didn't realize it yet. New things take getting used to.
Wrist check
>>18655641>What's your grail watch?Halios Seaforth bronze with green gilt dial.
>>18655805Fuck off loser
>>18655810lol, you make my point for me. Yet you have no watches and I have a great many. I buy like 4 watches a week and you bitch about it. Who is the loser?
>>18655811What the fuck kind of delusional schizo bullshit are you on? Seriously one of the most deranged people I've ever encountered on this site.
>>18655814I don't understand what's delusional here. I make a post about how I'm using the forum correctly and showing my watches, you call me a loser and tell me to fuck off, and I remind you that you are the loser between the two of us. Now you've got no recourse but to call me a delusional, deranged schizo? HAHAHA, maybe I am crazy because everything about you makes no sense.
>>18655747Whisky time.
>pisses all over your Seicope
>>18655820We all think it sucks, remember?
>>18655825>WeSpeak for yourself, dweeb.
>>18655827 No, I clearly remember last time you posted it we all said it blew and no one complimented you on it. And now here you are again claiming it "pisses on" any other watch and using the word "dweeb". lol
>>18655831Don't feed the troll. It's not even his own watch.
>>18655833Whose Sports Activity Watch is it then? I will stop responding to trolls. They just make me so mad. They're only here to ruin our good time. Even shaming them with logic doesn't dissuade them.
>>18655831>we all saidDear god we need /pol/style poster ids so bad.
>>18655811>i buy three salvage title minivans every week. why don't car enthusiasts want to talk to me?
>>18655839>I don't talk about my Camry, just Bentleys and Porches. But FUCK that guy who keeps buying old Subarus.
>>18655839If you enter those minivans in lemons-class junker races, I guarantee you that car enthusiasts will want to talk to you.The Temu shitters, on the other hand, are interesting to no one.
>>18655842Yes, fuck the guy who doesn’t talk about cars, he just spams the thread with listings for shitboxes so that no one else gets to enjoy the thread either.
>>18655843No one buys Temu shitters. Seriously, when's the last time anyone posted $10 and $20 watches?These snobs think even well-reviewed $250 watches are "shitters". And yet those guys never post images of watches. They just fawn over shit they'll never afford. It's envy. Not of the watches but of the freewheeling spending spree. That bothers them even more; because it's such an in-their-face, clear waste of money.
>>18655842You don't buy the watch equivalent of old Subaru's though. You also shit on anyone who does post an expensive watch they own and say it's a waste of money.
>>18655845Well, the rules don't allow for SPAM, so you just go ahead and report anything that breaks those rules, anon. I'll just wait for my ban.
>>18655847What's the new car equivalent? There isn't one. Yet I buy new watches. When did I say someone's watch was a waste of money?
>>18655850you buy tata nanos
>>18655853If I knew a guy who had 40 of those out front of his house in different colors and models I'd think that was pretty interesting, and I'd want to see them as they came in.I'm going to keep buying a lot of inexpensive, quality watches (yes, they are quality) and I'm going to keep sharing them here. Not for you, but for the people who appreciate it (yes, they exist). You are not disgusted to see new watches. Very few of them these days are shitty in any way, though I do buy the occasional novelty watch. Even those ARE WATCHES. And these are WATCH THREADS. I know you like seeing them come in. You just wish I'd save up and buy something you respect. But that's probably never going to happen. Just learn to deal with it. Have you ever successfully bullied anyone out of an online space? You sure as hell aren't going to start with me. lolShow me how it's done. Buy and post better watches, anon. I'm excited to see what you get. You ARE a watch enthusiast aren't you? You DO collect watches, right?
>>18655856You have serious issues
Which watch am I going to wear tomorrow?
>>18655862Tudor.
>>18655858Okay then. Feel free to post in someone else's watch threads if you don't like mine. But I know you can't stay away. Appreciate you not actually shitting on the individual watches when I unveil them. Or maybe you do. I don't really pay attention to the few idiotic haters.
>>18655862Depends on the outfit, but probably the Tudor.
>>18655853>comparing tata nano to watchesYou really are advertising yourself as a retard autismo.The problem is, tata nano doesn't look anything like the decent cars do.If it looked the same as a new BMW for example, was the same size, and 80-90% of the same quality of it, while being as cheap as it is now, a lot of people would buy it.Then it would be comparable to chinese watches.One of the reasons why there are no homage cars driving around is because cars are actually expensive and hard to make. Watches on the other hand are little trinkets that people use to show they have more money than others, and many are happy to throw hugely inflated amounts of money on them just for that purpose alone.No, no, but we don't understand, right?The other watch is LUXURY because it has better finishing on rotor and some other big metal parts that you don't even get to see ever, only the servicing guy does. That alone justifies paying thousands of dolars on a used watch of this kind. The new one of course almost no one in this thread can afford, but let's not talk about that since it would make is feel uncomfortable. It might even make us feel like we failed at life or something. That's not what we want, that's not what we are here for. I am SUCCESSFUL, I am not a poorfag. I have a used Breitling or Longines that other people made memories with, other people fucked while wearing. I am the real deal, bud. Fuck off you shitter-lovers.
This is why you shouldn't mix medications.
>>18655905Hear, hear!
>>18655905chinese have made "homage" cars though, shipping and selling them elsewhere is another thing though. bunch of mercedes copies around.
>>18655935Interesting. Are they any good?
>>18655935Well then, your wackadoo analogy was solid after all. Guess that's the end of all these shitter watches being shared.
>>18655936>>18655937Goddammit, you dumb fuck, how many times do you need to be reminded to clean your watches before trying to take macro pics? You used to clean cars back when you had a job. Was this the quality of work your customers expected?
Going out to eat
>>18655710A G-Shock square with an MIP display and a vibration alarm.But Casio knows that if they were to sell such a watch, it would cannibalize the rest of their product lineup.

>>18655965Yes, for sure one of my favorites for the price. Can't go wrong for $50. And I love that style in 36mm.
Kofe time.
How do these threads manage to get worse every goddamn time
What are the best movements that you can get in a brand new automatic watch under $1k?
>>18656016Probably some Seiko calibers.You used to have some ETA 2824 and Selitta equivalents in that price range but swiss prices have gone nuts. Only swiss auto still at that price would be the Powermatic 80 which implies buying a Pissot.
>>18656028There is like Seiko 6R55, and the cheapest would be Alpinist, but even the newest model of that is 1k.If you want a different Prospex model, like a diver or something with that movement, it might be 1.5k or around that.
>>18656000Is it just more or does the name “CITIZEN” itself just turn anyone off from the whole brand. Just an ugly looking ugly sounding name
>>18656047It's such a boring name, it feels like a made-up brand name in a film or TV show.Which is fitting since they've only ever made boring watches that look like non-distinct props.
>>18656047>>18656048What is a good brand name then in your opinion?For me it's Octopus Kraken.
>>18656054The only good brand name is - conveniently - also the name of the one brand that makes watches worth owning :Rolex.
>>18656059So this is why you don't own any watches and never post any.
>>18656061Yep.I'd rather wait until I can afford a watch that's worth owning than buy a lesser product and scream from the rooftop that it's actually just as good if not better.I'm not going to cope with a demonstrably inferior watch. I'll just work towards the one I actually want.
>>18655805You're living the dream. Fair enough. It's good to have a hobby, glad you're enjoying it.
>>18655710Agreed. It's the only watch I use for years
This thing just feels so light and crappy in comparison with my other watches now. Still the best to sleep with though. I didn’t even know it had lume.
Is this a good watch?
>>18656099No.Just get a Rolex. Or a Dubuis.
>>18656016Best in what aspect? You can get an sw200 or a miyota 9000 series watch for ~$300-500 if you want 4hz. You can get a powermatic or a 6r55/35 for $500-1000 if what you want is a long power reserve.
>>18656028The hamilton khakis have powermatics for as low as in the $300s for the less desirable ones. You can also get an intramatic (not the chrono) with a 4hz eta under $1000
>>18656107Would those watches be new or used?Can you please list some examples of actual watches with these movements and these prices?
>>18656103I cant afford that
>>18656103>No.Are you serious? You're like a parody of a generic snob. Even if you are serious, no one would ever take you seriously with takes like that.

>>18656132I give your mother the tip every nite bitch.
>>18656141The black bay is actually good looking and the sub is a fat fucking pig. Can rolex make a black bay with their logo already?
>>18655836I agree, it would get rid of some of the toxic behavior here instantly.
>>18656143No and they never have.

My new grail watch. Just haven't decided on which color. Way more than this too. Dark dials to choose from. Love this kind of stuff.
>>18656147tudor has some fat ass watches actually
>>18656208So when will tolex have something that competes with the black bay? As is they only have ugly watches outside of the cheap entry level explorer ii
>>18656210Sorry, meant explorer i, explorer 2 is the hummer h2 style fat bezel one
>>18656202fine niche watches, it can work for the right kind of person
>>18656210>>18656214you might like the air king and op if you like the expl 1.tudor and rolex styling is pretty samey to me. vintage tudor especially.
I just ordered 12 new straps. I need to go to bed.
>>18656210I have a black bay 58 and I would never trade it for any rolex in existence.
>>18656232Just get 3 more man, 15 is such a good number.
>>18656252which one? i really like the gmt
>>18656221Google black bay. It is so much better looking than any rolex and it isn't close
>>18656264Looking better than rolenta slop is not a high bar to clear.
>>18656258Middle one in this >>18655862.
>>18656198This watch looks so cheap, like a lot of stuff in this general. Please don't spend all your money in this stuff guys
>>18656264anon i know what the black bay is i just dont think its so different from rolex. both look good to me.>>18656271wow the blue is fucking class

Finally found a Rolex I would want.
>>18656312There's enough chinese shit in the world at least get a nip watch
>>18656319I have those too. Variety is the spice of life. It's a sweet little hand wind with a nice dial for $35. There's nothing wrong with Chinese shit if you wear and appreciate it. Might look good on some different straps too. Don't worry, I won't make you look at it any more, sourpuss.
>>18656330Wow, amazing watch! What is it? Will you post it again? Just beautiful. Would look great next to a beverage of some sort.

>>18656343Coffeemogged
I just bought a used Longines Conquest V.H.P. and i am surprised by how shockingly bad this watch is. First of all it has the haziest crystal i have ever seen in my life and i own chinese $100 shitters, vostok shitters, casio shitters but nothing even comes close, it is like looking at a dial through cataract.Second, it is a perpetual calendar watch where you, the owner of the watch, can not set the date. Battery died and you didn't change it on time? Sucks to be you retard, now you have to send to Longines, pay them a couple of hundreds to set the time.At last but not least it has a button that does nothing. Like actually nothing, it has no function. It has a function on a models with GMT, but not on this one and their decision to say fuck it, that'll do is baffling.I did not expect such poor quality from a major brand but at least i understand now why they dropped this model, it is terrible, in every way.
>>18656361>turkfilthAnon.. Come on now..
>>18656370the longines value proposition has always seemed retarded.
>>18656350>What’s your wrist size?About 18cm>How do you like the fit of it? They always look huge.It fits like a cuff bracelet, by design. The bracelet is very thin and well-articulated, so it fits around the wrist nicely. It’s very comfortable.It looks huge on everyone but wears smaller than you think. The lug-to-lug is only 45mm. It wears like nothing else.If you like it, try one on first, but I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the comfort. In terms of the looks, that’s up to you, but it was never meant to be a watch that appeals to everyone.

It's 2/3rds coffee 1/3rd milk, it's in a big cup (3dl if not more) and i assure you it's strong enough. Pure black coffee takes ages to cool and it isn't that friendly to my stomach.
I didn't even know they made one.
>>18656618How did you get that watch to stand up like that for your photo?
>>18656617Put it back before your daddy knows you borrowed it, kid. No mature, straight adult would post the gay pics you do. Did you come from some community where people thought that was acceptable? You're sorely mistaken. But as a troll you'll just post even more of that shit. You got any Robert Mapplethorpe in that folder?
>>18656623You are a deranged, sad, jewish person
>>18656626Jews again. That and the muscled men you are attracted to seem to be far more important to you than watches. Why do you come to /fa/ anyway? Just to call people jews like that means anything? And post your faggy images from reddt? Are you lost from /r9k/? Those incels believe in "chad" and all that stuff. You're probably one of them. Never had a job or a girlfriend. Don't have a watch or a hobby. No friends clearly. lol, but I'M deranged and sad. Oh yeah, and jewish.And that's an insult. And you're going to post it again, and again and again. You're probably that 'Kofe' faggot too. It would make sense.
>>18656626Brown, poor, jealous.
I am not jewish
>>18656343very based
>>18655641Is this the best looking Speedy?
>>18656678Faggot
>>18656681this but steel
>>18656622That's not my watch. I think it's a clear stand.
>>18656681Gold and green or that blue one in white gold that recently came out.
