>>18685824Because customers of Moser post-Meylan takeover are fucking retarded, attracted by hype, knowing zilch about horology. They’re even worse than Rolex buyers.
>>18685827This. There’s another poster here who has a gold Moser that’s pre-buyout (I’m not exactly sure what model) and the difference in movement and case finishing is absolutely night and day. The current models are 99% machine finished. Apparently the the company took a massive loss on all the older models because they put so much effort into them, but no one would buy them if they were twice the price.

what are some good options for something like a datejust under $2000?Something that can be worn everyday casually but also dressed up (not talking a tux, but a suit or jacket / trousers)I was interested in the Tissot Gentleman but after trying it on in person wasn't too impressed.Could stretch to 3000 for the right watch

>>18685854In his defense, he did say he was unimpressed.
>>18685829>cant you just go to germany and collect 500 euro a month plus free housing, healthcare and so on?From the EU, you would have to do some serious cheating the system to do that. Like getting a job, then faking an injury or whatever. And you wouldn't get free housing and food, just whatever unemployment there is. Possibly if you've been in Germany for like 10 years already but I don't have the time for that, I'm way too old.You only get the full package if you're some random illegal Arab or African. EU people can get fucked.
>>18685752how often do you have to service automatic watches? The long term maintenance and constant time adjustments is really putting me off from buying one.
>>18685855Where do retards like you live? In a literal cave on some forgotten alpine valley?Objectively the best watches are between 1-4k
It’s summer bros i hope you’re enjoying the sun
>>18685884You need to have an automatic watch serviced when it stops running correctly. If, for example, you notice that it’s now losing minutes per day where it used to gain a few seconds, if it cannot stay wound, or if the date function stops working. If something inside sounds like it’s making a grinding noise that it never used to. If you plan on getting the watch wet, taking it swimming, then you should get it serviced every five years or so to make sure that the gaskets that ensure watertightness are in good condition.
>>18685884When it stops working, I have a Bulova automatic from 1970 that still runs perfectly. It’s never been serviced because it hasn’t needed to be.

>>18685895I will never understand why they don't make this in normal teeth colors?
>>18685899I've done teeth whitening a couple of three times, and my teeth are whiter than ever (not as ridiculous as him) but somehow i felt like i could go even whiter. At one point you lose the value of what's your normal teeth color. But when the white of your eyes is not as white as your teeth, usually you've already gone too far. At last, it's my own stop point.
>>18685752>>18685753>>18685755Do you actually think that monstrosity is cool?
>>18685899They do, you literally pick the color you want. He made the rookie mistake of saying he wanted stark white and, for some reason, his dentist didn't warn him that it would look really unnatural and weird. Maybe you could argue it's less important if you're only doing one implant, then it's really important to pick a shade that both matches the rest of your teeth and is reasonable to maintain for the rest of your real teeth long term because the implant won't stain, so maybe they figured that doing every tooth won't matter much since every tooth will always match. But, as you can see, it just looks really weird. They're almost grey white.

Should I buy a Doxa 200t?I have been thinking of getting one for a while.
>>18685931They’re not bad, but you might want to consider the SUB300 since Doxas wear very small. One thing that’s a little disappointing is their shockingly poor lume for a supposed dive watch.
>>18685931As long as you're aware that you're buying a fully chinese made watch that masqurades as "swiss". If you like the design/want that watch enough, then OK, whatever. Get it. As long as you know that "doxa" isn't the same as the doxa of yesteryear popularized by oldschool divers and clive cussler shit etc; it's just a name being cynically capitalized on. If you want the look just get a chinky seestern doxa lookalike and skip the middleman; apparently some of them put "doxa" equivalents to shame.
>>18685933I tried the 300 and it was way too big for my wrist.It was also really heavy.I also thought about the 200 but its a bit boring compared to the more unique design on other Doxa watches.Also the clasp is horrific on the 200.

Is anyone familiar with buying watches off Etsy? I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if these prices market are value or if they're knockoffs.https://www.etsy.com/shop/worldwatchwork#about

>>18685893>>18685894which one of these would be the most worth it and require the least maintenance?Hamilton Jazzmaster Performer Automatic 38mmTissot PRX Titanium 38mmi'm leaning towards the PRX because it looks more sporty and could use it more, but have read that the components in the movements arent the best.
>>18685972lovely
>>18686062H-10 movement > powermatic 80I would believe that the Hamilton has a better build, it's more traditional. So you'd have less maintenance with the Hamilton.But the PRX is definitely more attractive and more up to date looks wise.

>>18685926>Formex>Trashka>Christopher Wart>MontaThese are shitter brands.Longine Conquest and Oris Big Crown are ok choices.

>>18686100it's a quartz, the end.
Seiko watches (including GS, Credor, etc) give me the ick.There's something unpleasant about them. The people wearing these watches usually have bad taste.
Fuck watches.

I like the look of field watches, but I don't know where to start. Any recommendations for beginners? I see the Seiko 5 and Hamilton Khaki Field being recommended a lot as solid entry-level field watches.
Best watch thread ever. Highly red-pillled, based and quartz-pilled.
>>18686173Based on what?
>>18686169>>18686174Ouch! Spitting zingers left and right, big guy.
Imagine being invited at a wedding, and the fiancee gets you a shitty green Orient you have to wear like 4 other guys, while he's getting a green Omega for himself.What would you do?
>>18686175Do you feel attacked?
>>18686177>having friends>having at least one friend who isn’t an incel>having friends who can afford to buy watchesI don’t think most of the posters here can relate, the be quite honest.
>>18686036Fucking based
>>18686178You sure told us, top dog.
>>18685930>>18686090Not even true.The Monta has a reliable easily serviced movement that has been modified to be extremely accurate and only requires servicing every 5-7 years.The fit and finishing are much better than anything in the price point and the bracelet is often regarded as one of the best in the entire industry.For the price it’s very hard to beat and this is coming from someone who doesn’t even own one, just considered buying one as a beater.CW and Formex are also highly regarded for similar reasons. What you get for the price.CW is now a top 50 watch brand in the world and I wouldn’t be surprised if you see them similarly to how Oris is today in a decade.Not a shill as I don’t own any of these “microbrands” but some like the ones mentioned are hard to beat if you’re talking value and quality for the dollar; they simply don’t have the luxury name tax.Do I own one? No. Would I? MaybeDownside? They hardly hold their value, don’t buy one thinking you’ll get 80% of your money back if you decide to sell it, that’s where the name comes in as a big loss.But there are many other options I’ve listed earlier that are alternatives in the price point.Can also look for a mint blackbay one or carerra if you want to stay around 2-3k
>>18686177I'd be polite, thank him for the gift, and never wear that shitter again. I'd probably give it away if I could find someone who wanted it.When it came time to take this faggy pic though I wouldn't be able to not make a little quip to the effect of "just sort of awkwardly mashing our fingers together, huh?" but I guess they all agreed to do that? weird>>18686179True I don't have any friends, but you don't have to relate to imagine, like he asked.
>>18686170Alpinist / Baby AlpinistHamilton field series Damasko ds/dkSinn 556 ( more expensive)Don’t think it’s worth even considering anything else unless you need to go cheaper
>>18686186>Downside? They hardly hold their valueBecause they are shitters and are seen as such.They don't have luxury brand cred. It's not a question of value or "bang for your buck", it's a question of standing. You don't find them in luxury dealers.The original poster asked for alternatives to a Datejust, so a fucking Monta or a CW are nowhere near that. GS, Longines, Tudor, Tag, Cartier (...) you do find those in luxury dealers.
>>18686185You keep responding, so I guess he did. Anyway, what’s on your wrist this morning, Bittercel? Still rocking a bare wrist?
>>18686189He also said he was looking at a tissot gentleman and would spend 2k maybe 3k so I assumed similar dimensions, style, function, etc.Not everyone is buying watches to impress others with an “oomf” factor, he just may like the look of the datejust.
>>18686193A Tissot is not an alternative to a Datejust.A Longines Master Collection kind of is, and it's around 2K/3K.
Where the hell is kofe time? Why have the gods forsaken us?
>>18686191>You keep responding, so I guess he did.got me here, ha ha
>>18686195If you go gray market, you can get most of those Longines for under 2k, like the Conquest Automatic or Flagship Automatic.
>>18686195Now you see the dilemma.He wanted an alternative to a datejust, 2-3k, something he can wear dressed up but also casual.I listed multiple watches of different prices in his price range or close to it, some dressier some more casual, all with stainless steel case and bracelet.That is all lmao and I don’t think any I mentioned is a bad buy depending on what he truly wants in the watch, except for maybe the traska I listed as a budget option
>>18686196I can cover for him until he arrives.
>>18686177I would tell the story about how the groom went to the YMCA for swimming lessons for gym class and he shit in the pool and all the class made fun of him and the boys snapped wet towels on his ass saying they had to help him wipe.
Why wouldn't you get 640 over 168
>>18686199>you can get a used Aqua Terra in like-new condition for 2-3k.
>>18686199Nah, you don't get it. You're low balling him.His budget is 2K to 3K but you recommend a Trashka and a Christopher Wart.I recommended GS, Tudor, Tag Heuer, Cartier.Longines we both recommended, so this one is moot (i wouldn't have a few years ago but they upped their game).
>>18686200thank you for your service>>18686202
>>18686195love my longines but I got the moon phase and while it's a beauty I think that it is harder to wear casually
>>18686220Yeah, a moonphase is hard to pull off. A conquest (or the new hyped hydroconquest) are better daily watches.
>>18686215You’re assuming he wanted luxury with an oomf factor to impressI assumed he wanted a watch with similar function / versatility since he was looking at a tissot gentleman which is a literal Datejust homage.Only he knows what he truly wants I hope he looks at everything mentioned

>>18686230Go away. No one likes you.
>>18686062Prx is the better watch value wise, the hamilton is more r*ddit though so if you want living ‘jaks commenting on the thickness of your wrist go with that one
>>18686231Shut up retard. Go seethe in R9K or something.
>>18686234No, fuck you. He’s right. Spamming the same pictures over and over again is not fucking contributing to the thread, as are his pathetic attempts to flex, despite him already admitting that he grew up in poverty and needs people to believe he’s got money.There’s two of us trying to recommend a watch and this faggot spamming shitty old pics he’s posted a hundred times before. The motherfucker is the primary reason that all the people who actually cared about watches are gone.

>>18686233PRX is also pretty uncomfortable for many people. The hard angles and awkward bracelet not lend themselves to comfortably draping around most people’s wrists, unless you’re one of the lucky ones or you prefer to wear your watch loose anyway.

>>1868624722k CHF is around 28k USD or 23k Euro. That one watch is probably worth more than everyone’s collection in this thread.

>>18686254think about it. The first thing that you thought about after seeing his watch was>"hehe that one is more expensive than whoreanons moser!"Your obsession is unhealthy. Nobody cares man, move on in life.
>>18686256Read the whole thread. OP was trying to flex and with one pic, the guy with the Strom just castrated him. But you can go ahead believing what you need to believe. It won’t make anyone like you, Whoretadello.
>>18686247I wasn’t trying to flex. I wanted to post something that maybe hadn’t been posted in the thread before. Be the change and all that.
>>18686257nobody thought about it like that except you. we saw an armin strom, and the Very very first thing you thought about was how that watch is more expensive than OPs moser. You're obsessed. Move on in life.
