so you found:
>several generals that hit the bump limit
>several threads for specific watches/discussions that would get ignored in the generals
shouldn't be an issue honestly, the same happens with other generals, e.g. specific fragrance questions and specific shoe questions. then you have
>watch general
>cheap watch general
a split caused by some animals wanting to discuss cheaper watches without getting yapped at. and finally
>split bake for watch general
this is the only one that is really annoying
>>

>>18715447
There are no other general threads on /fa/ except for fragrances, which is equally out of place here. There is no jewelry general, no sneaker thread, the only staple of the board was WAYWT but that died off and gets shitted up by the watch autists too.

If they were stylish it might make sense, but they have zero taste, they're fashion-retarded the same way 90% of car guys will spend 60k on some custom job and then step out of the thing looking like a fat slob. Their obsession with the aesthetic of their special interest seems to have no crossover with their clothing, it's some weird lipstick on a pig situation and it attracts the most boring people on the planet.
>>
>>18715464
>There are no other general threads on /fa/ except for fragrances
And boots, and denim, and /tip/, and skincare, and thinspo which arguably belongs even less on /fa/ and should be on /fit/.
It's just that the watch threads have a handful of truly terrible posters in a constant faceoff seeing who will shit up the thread first
>four or five guys, three of which are clearly identified (grand seiko blogposter, citizen coffee spamer, weekdater guy) who think spamming copypasta and reposting the same stuff over and over is funny and who think clogging up a slow board by making new threads at 250 posts is epic trolling
>another four guys who act as hostile as possible to the first group, initially started by a pretty identifiable poster who most likely isn't here anymore but the process of killing the conversation out of spite lives on
There's probably ten to fifteen posters in the watch threads in total. And since so much of it is shit flinging and the spammers find it funny to spam threads while the anti-spammers try to make counter-threads, the entire board takes the fall.
All of this could be stopped ifthe board had poster ID so retards would stop fighting ghosts.

The thing about watches is that you can be into it for 10 years and still discover a new brand every day.

>>
>>18718759
I feel like this is an unfair comparison because of the differences in pricing and how they are marketed. Smartwatches are not only much cheaper but they're often comped or discounted when you buy certain phones or mobile plans, so it makes a lot of sense that they'd move a lot of units and there's a lot of room to play funny games with the numbers.

It might be like saying Casio is better or more popular than Rolex because they sell more units. Well, yeah, they sell watches for $20 in wal-mart, of course they sell a shitload of watches.

>>18736571
i think for the female gaze, they are making more male models to be twinks. Though, I suspect the real reason is that they want to make men be more gay because gay men are basically women and women drive 80% of consumer decisions. With respect to women and "recognition" of a watch: they know that men are "into" watches the same way they might say that men are into video games, that is, they only understand the association - not specific knowledge about the topic. Therefore, a woman might recognize a rolex or some other namebrands as a high quality luxury watch, but the watches are virtually indistinguishable to women after a few hundred dollars in value. And think about it, what would it mean if a woman was able to correctly identify that a watch one was wearing was tens of thousands of dollars in value? That she has the same ability as a 300 lb watch autist to sniff out a high value item? Despite my cynicism, they do have use being a basic jewelry piece for men, but after a certain price tag, there are just diminishing returns on what it does for you.

i also want to share a story about something that happened to me at work. I work for a national program at a prestigious government institution in the US. We were all taken into a virtual meeting where our program director was joined by a senior official at our washington DC org, where he announced a re-organization of the DC part of our institution. He was short, fat and balding. He aimed his camera angle and his body posture in such a manner that his wrist and his big ass fat orange watch was front and center of the screen, and he made adjustments to his camera whenever he adjusted his hand posture. For this senior but not publicly visible official/executive, he probably hasno family, no life outside of work, no rizz, but he did have probably a 10k watch on and made sure to flex it on us wagies
