Gold Tank with black alligator: is there a more classic combination?
>>
>>18723875
That's nice. Is it a bi-directional rotating bezel? Old skin-divers from that era had bi-directional bezels.

I bet it would look great with an old-style Tropic rubber strap.

The only things I would change would be to use normal colored lume instead of the ugly, piss-yellow lume; and I would have swapped the "Automatic" and WR 100m" and made the text size equal.
>>
>>18723926
>You mean the fauxtina hands? The same as the Hamilton in OP and the Murph and tons of other vintage looking watches?
Yeah, I don't like it.
Not only does it not perform as well as other colors, it doesn't even actually look that much like aged tritium. It's just an ugly color, in my opinion.

I think you can make something look old-fashioned without deliberately trying to make it look old. People will still recognize it as an old-style watch.

Plus, when all those old tritium watches were new, the tritium lume was bright white anyway.

I like the Tank Solo's case shape, personally, but I understand why they went with the Tank Must's Louis Cartier-esque shape.

I just wish Cartier hadn't cheapened the watch in the process. The Solo had sapphire glass to the Must's mineral glass. The Solo had an opaline dial to the Must's plain white dial. I think the cabochon material in the crown is different as well. And, of course, the Solo had a gold option (even if it's caseback was steel)

>Yellow gold is kind of trashy, imo.
Pleb-tier take.

Yellow gold is classic. Sure, wearing A TON of yellow gold is gross but a small, gold, classic dress watch in yellow gold is the epitome of elegance.

Finally received my GMW-B5000TVA-1JR. I had concerns that it would be uncomfortable, but the link articulation and shape of the lugs+case is excellent. It drapes over my wrist perfectly, and very light considering the construction quality.

I also didn't think I would appreciate the bluetooth stuff, but it's so convenient. Also, I've owned square G-Shocks before, but this one feels thinner. I haven't compared the dimensions with other variants, but that's how it feels on the wrist.

Your short list unfortunately leaves off the important “Pre-Must” model 15705 introduced in 1969.

>>18724000
>Your short list unfortunately leaves off the important “Pre-Must” model 15705 introduced in 1969.
Yes, you're right. Is that the one that used Cartier's innovative case construction of attaching the caseback with glue?
>>
>>18724001
The Santos-Dumont is their best model. The perfect balance of dressiness and sportiness.
>>
>>18724002
In that list above the 15705 is pretty much the only major release from roughly wwii to 1977 and the Must. The pre-Must was just an even cheaper first time at reaching mass appeal that the Must more successfully won ten years later.
>>
>>18724003
No, it's not. The best model is the Ronde. Disagree or reply to me and you mom will die in her sleep tonight.
>>
>>18724009
>Ronde
lmfao tastelet. A Ronde is simply a cope Calatrava.
>>
>>18724015
This. Why would you go to a brand that is known for innovative shaped watches and select a boring round watch?
It's telling that the Ronde de Cartier name showed up in the 1980s just as Patek's 3919 became known as "the Banker's watch". Cartier claims they've been making round watches since the 1930s but like with the Pasha, Cartier has never really been forthcoming with details. Meanwhile, they have pictures and schematics of watches like the Tank Cintree and are more than happy to go into every detail.

>>18724008
>the 15705 is pretty much the only major release from roughly wwii to 1977 and the Must.
There were other releases, like the Crash, but the Tank line had more or less settled into a groove while the three semi-independent Cartier houses in Paris, London and New York were each going through their own troubles.
>>
>>18724039
The “Crash” isn’t even a tank though. It’s entirely its own watch and is based off a melted version of the Baignoire.
>>
>>18724040
I did not mean to imply that a Crash was a variant of the Tank. I meant that Cartier was still coming up with other designs while the Tank lineup was static

I've previously owned the GMW-B5000D-1CCR, GW-5000U-1JF and GW-S5600U-1. The B5000D felt thicker and heavier than the B5000TVA-1JR for sure, and the bracelet on the B5000D never felt comfortable to me.

The comfort is the thing I am liking the most out of this one. I'll be keeping it for a long time I think.

In another sense, guitars do exactly the same thing as watches, in that neither gets you, personally, laid.

What is so special about this brand? Is it just some sort of viral marketing campaign? The main watch reporting sites started posting articles about it all at the same time.

All of the components they use seem to be off the shelf as far as I can tell, you can literally see them being used in other microbrands. And the movements they use are usually the same, off the shelf miyota calibres.

It's trying to recast a microbrand around this idea that some wizened old Japanese artisan is hand-crafting each watch. Western weebs go bananas for that shit.
>>
>>18724315
Yeah not on acoustic guitars. I don't know who kevin shields is. I just downsized everything to an hx stomp and a single jazzmaster because I was sick of the size of everything when moving. I got the taylor after I snapped the headstock off an epiphone el00 I had for 12 years. I have 3 guitars, an electric, a classical, and a steel string.

>>18724321
Just buy fewer things you actually like. Same applies to watches. You need like 2 or 3 and that's it. I gave away a couple and will be doing so with another 2 so all I have is a sport watch and my gmt.

>>18724339
This is the general. There is a second general for buyers of inexpensive (generally sub-500 dollar) watches. Those two threads make sense since the buyers of inexpensive watches generally get upset when people talk about more expensive watches.

The other dozen or so watch threads were all spammed by one user who keeps bumping them. The threads were created in response to complaints by others about there being too many watch threads. These complaints were reasonable because one user (probably the same guy who created all the other threads) thinks it's funny to create a new /wt/ thread well before the previous one is at the bump limit.

They're decent looking, relatively inexpensive, and good for wristlets with their small diameters. I have two myself. I actually have gotten several compliments on the royal smith fwiw. The bronze one I let my 9 month old son play with and chew on.

Is it some incredible amazing brand? No, but that said their overall finish and design is worlds better than equivalently priced Seikos so you don't feel like you're wearing a sad compromise because you can't afford what you really want (which is Seiko's entire lineup if you ask me).
>>
>>18724712
The bronze one is cool, I was thinking about getting one for a while but they seem to be permanently sold out everywhere.
>>
>>18724718
I think Oris makes a bronze version of their big crown that gives off similar vibes. It's a bit more expensive, but I'm sure it's a better overall watch as well.
>>
Remember the Spinnaker 50 Phantoms?
>>
>>18724723
To be honest even though its cool bronze watches are a total gimmick and I'd never spend Oris money on one, otherwise id probably get a bronze black bay if i had that kind of money. The kuoe is about what id be willing to spend. I like small watches too so I think I like it more regardless of price.
>>
>>18724753
Fair enough. If I were to get the Oris equivalent I would get their ladies version which is 36mm (sweet spot diameter for me) and around $2k. I'd be comfortable with doing a bronze at that price but more than that I agree about it being a gimmick. The nice thing about the Kuoe is again I can let my son teeth on it and not care if it gets scratched or marked up (which hasn't happened anyways, outside of it slowly developing a patina which was going to happen anyways).

Oh by the way, you can make that watch real (in a way) by bezel swapping these.

I think I'm basically done with mechanical watches. Quartz is thinner, more accurate, easier and cheaper to service (especially because I can change batteries myself).

Most importantly, I hate having to constantly re-set a watch every single time I don't wear it for a few days.
I've got a couple mechanical pieces that I'll keep for sentimental reasons, but the only watches that I actually wear anymore are my Breitling Aerospace, Omega Seamaster, and Cartier Santos-Dumont.

I don't collect them and store them away or desire to have many watches, I just buy what I like and wear them.

>>18724981
So your only option is grand soiko then. Because solar watches not only rival mechanicals in terms of service price but also take longer because you must send them to the manufacturer.
>>
>>18725021
Sure, but I don't like any watch GS has ever made. They're generally too thick and too big, their bracelets are hot garbage, their FiNiShInG is overrated, and they just slap design elements on watches that don't need them. (i.e. why do some of their Datejust clones have crown guards?)
I will grant that some of their dial textures are nice, but that's about it.

The Aerospace is a COSC-certified chronometer which for quartz means accuracy to 10 seconds per year. And it also has an alarm, a chronograph, a countdown timer, a second timezone, and a calendar. It's titanium and has a hundred meters of water resistance while being 10mm thick. No GS has anything like that.

>The Aerospace is a legendary watch
So naturally, Breitling expanded it out to 45mm across and then cancelled it.
Nowadays most pilots wear an Apple Watch but among the watch nerds it's mostly Breitlings and Rolexs. If you see a pilot wearing an Aerospace, the chances are pretty good he previously flew in the military.

They still make some ugly chronographs, but when they made more quartz watches, they were great. They were one of the few companies that bothered to get their quartz movements COSC certified.

Yeah that seemed like the obvious solution but it didn’t have the exhibition caseback and the movement isn’t as good. I think it’s one of the most beautiful movements so I really would want to be able to see it. The pano date is a cool addition too imo, but you’re right I’m gonna try and seek one out and try it on.

That was changed last year. They come with a display back now. In fact, if you have an older one, you can send it to GO and they'll swap your solid back out for a display back and put the serial number on the new one.

You're right about the movement itself not being as technically interesting as the big panodate movement. Nothing you can do about that, though. For me, the smaller size and thinness was worth it. A power reserve in the 40-50 hour range was considered totally normal just a few years ago.

is this still relevant?
>>
>>18725175
Not really. We've kind of moved past the idea of a watch company producing watches exclusively in one luxury tier. Most brands produce a range of products.
Take Cartier, for instance. The basic Tank Must is nothing special. It's very pricey for what it is, but in terms of features and finishing, it's closer to being in the entry-level luxury segment. Meanwhile, the stuff in the Prive line and their really special pieces like the Masse Mysterieuse are closer to high-end luxury and even ultra-luxury.
Then, on the other hand, you do have companies like Tudor whose entire range is comfortably entry-level luxury or Armin Strom whose entire range is comfortably ultra-luxury.

I think the people who like this list are the people who only really look at the brand name and nothing else. They'll buy the cheapest possible Moser or Piaget they can find and declare themselves to now be in the ultra-luxury tier.
>>
>>18725175
It's shit

Omega and IWC are more luxury than Girard Perregaux.

Ressence and Moser are not ultra luxury, they are niche.
Grand Seiko should be up a category, he doesn't deserve to be next to Kurono that uses basic Miyota movement.

The whole thing is kind of shit.
There was a pyramid one that was better.
>>
>>18725175
Absolutely not and i've been wanting to make an updated version. Half of the brands under entry level no longer exist, Ming definitely moving up and credor should be in consumer tier.
Also i would add another tier, called not a watch, where i would put things like fashion brands and apple.

If your G-Shock has bluetooth, you can use the Casio G-Shock Smart Sync app to sync your Google Calendar with the 'Reminders' feature on your watch.

Oh nice, that's a good change. I'll go to AD soon and try both side by side. I know i'll prefer the size of the smaller one but if I'm going to be spending $8-10k its hard to accept a less interesting/complicated movement.

You have one? What color? What else do you have?

Picrel. I love it. It’s very comfortable and versatile. It runs about a second per day fast. Normally I wear it on a rubber strap but the bracelet is one of the best in the industry. I just don’t really like bracelets in the summer.

I don’t know what you think those overpriced brands are giving you besides a slightly better movement sometimes.
They’ve done lots of comparison reviews and they aren’t significantly better made at all.

There are like 4 main movements what the fuck are we even talking about. This is why watches are boring and stupid. You get a eta 2800 series or a sw200 series or a miyota 9000 series for 4hz. And you get a nh30 series for 3hz and SOMETIMES a yn50 series. You want long power reserve? You get an eta2800 modded and called a c07 or you get a seiko 6r. You getting a chronograph? You get a seiko vr, sometimes a seagull. Otherwise you'll be getting an eta775X. The only special in house ones will be at the top with zennith or omega or rolex. Watches are fucking boring. Just pick your style, 4hz vs 3hz, and power reserve. They're almost all just steel with sapphire and you get a different faceplate on the front like an xbox 360. You can get titanium or brass. Then we're done you've learned what everything is and everything is the same so just pick your faceplate. Literally all of them are extremely overpriced except for chinkwatches

Having formerly owned a 114060, the SeaQ is a cut above in terms of finishing and feel. Now, if I could get a really minty 14060M, I might be tempted to make the swap but it would have to be a truly great example.

Which is why I love those beautiful chinkers. I'll buy a Swiss or Japanese when they're on deep discount too though.
I just can't drop thousands on ONE watch because they pay some actor or sporting competitor to wear it in photos. Makes me feel stupid.

I believe it but the no date sub is just too cool. I also love the 5 digits and would grab one if they weren't more expensive than a new one lol.
>>
>>18725321
I mean, get the 5-digit models while you can. They're only going to get more expensive as the 4-digit models move further upmarket. It wasn't that long ago that you could get a decent 5513 for like 5 grand but no one wanted them because they were just old beaters. Only the special and rare models were collectible. Now a junk 5513 is going to be around 9 grand.
