is this a pure fashion watch or can it be considered a beater?

>>18713017
interesting. I was never an anon who said anything specific about what a good caseback should look like.
I quite like the caseback on my watch but I can't say what my watch is.
It's not a popular watch (and I want to keep it that way).
The caseback in that image does look smooth. Looks nice.

>>18713090
>pure fashion watch
>a beater
Umm, can you explain what a 'fashion watch' and 'beater' mean to you? Just so we're on the same page. Did you mean to say 'dress' and 'everyday' maybe?

>>18713096
'dress' just sounds strange, maybe it's because I am a native English speaker, and to me a 'dress' watch sounds like a watch for a woman to wear when she's wearing a dress. I used the term fashion as in my mind it's the antithesis to the term tool. A tool watch has a purpose outside of aesthetics. A fashion watch is purely for aesthetics (outside of the banal time-keeping purpose). I hope this is a satisfactory explanation.

'Everyday' is a fine phrase I guess. I like beater better though as it kind of has the energy of the indifference about the watch, it's just something you wear without concerning yourself too much about maintaining a perfect aesthetic for it. You know it is going to get wear and tear. And it is strong enough to deal with that for a long time.

>>18713099
>to me a 'dress' watch sounds like a watch for a woman to wear when she's wearing a dress.
You seem to be new to watches. Go look up what a dress watch is, what a beater watch is and what a fashion watch is. You go the tool watch somewhat right.

>>18713104
Gemini pumped this out:

"A dress watch is an elegant, minimalist timepiece designed for formal wear, while a beater watch is a durable, affordable daily wear watch meant to withstand rough conditions. A fashion watch is a trend-driven accessory produced by a clothing brand rather than a specialized watchmaker."

>>18713090
It could be considered a pure shitter.
Because it is.

>>18713130
I'm the anon you responded to and I am wondering what are you're top 3 watches?

>>18713146
the red star really sets it off
[spoiler]looks like the kinda watch that young people wear when they slaughter their grandparents[/spoiler]

>>18713146
nah but seriously looks charming in that almost fantasy kitsch chinese way.
like if you turn the crown 12 times after it is at stop three a tiny tinny sounding speaker inside the watch will start playing the chinese national anthem (march of the volunteers) shit sorry i can't help myself here

>>18713146
i have to take another hit at this
i reckon this watch looks like the kinda watch you could buy to show some base-line level of enthusiasm about chinese people (stop asian huge, hug a chinese person today) and then you fly into SF airport and the first thing you see is a tall chinese supersoldier woman and she looks at you, then look at your watch, and then in perfect english (albeit with a swiss accent on top) she belittles you and calls you pathetic

>>18713146
I would get this watch if I wanted to commielarp with fucking pea soup pants and a surplus jacket you would see on a Soviet conscript and some worn out combat boots

>>18713161
stop asian hate*

>>18713162
yeah totally like again you could buy this watch and then fly into portland, oregon, and wander down the street with a huge shit eating grin on your face and then chat up the nearest coloured hair girl with the nose jewellery thing they all have and tell her how much you're ready for the communist revolution you're just not strong enough yet for it because you're in a pussy drought but as soon as you get some pussy you're definitely gonna start the revolution then ask her for the time then say oh wait i actually have my own watch and then loo kat your watch, then loko at her, then look at your watch, then look at her again

>>18713106
Why would you post this here? Are you proud you can't use your own brain?
>look, i can't think for myself and i need someone else to do the thinking for me, here's what came out, look at it

>>18713146
In order to make this watch work you have to be a fucking PINKO FAGGOT with BUNDESWEHR PARKA that has patches on it saying STOMP FASCISTS and a BLM fist in FAGGOT colors walking hunched over to the local MATCHA SHOP to hit on FOIDS with SEPTUM RINGS who don't shave their armpits trying to talk them into meeting you after work so you can nut in their unwashed pussy while watching NETFLIX and get CHLAMYDIA

>>18713166
No I did use my own brain and I was told I wasn't fitting in with the watch lingo lol. I just pasted the gemini shit because to me it shows how facile it is to group think so hard until your nuts shrink up and fall off which is what happens to a lot of watch guys, I believe. No offense to you, I know you're a good sort.

>>18713167
decent post and thank you for contributing, my only recommendation is to include something there like some kind of reference to some ethnic food you get doordashed. please.

Seriously though that Chinese watch makes me think of Jenny's Marxist boyfriend in Forrest Gump who gets punched in the face.
I'd rather spend slightly more money and get a different Chinese watch.

btw i googled pea soup pants and it only came up with pea soup recipes

very disappointed i was gonna buy the pants and then buy a BUNDESWEHR PARKA

might have even looked up where to buy that commie watch too

I think this watch is bit of a meme now, I'm tempted to buy the canvas one for the luls. the stainless steel is bracelet versino is another 40 bucks in my currency, and i need that 40 bucks to spend on my 15 extremely hot girlfriends

>>18713200
have you considered just not being poor?

>>18713205
yeah the chairman mao watch might not be decent quality ahaha, probably a very cheap thing just spat out on some factory line for the kitsch purchase.

thank you for the info about the bracelets. i'm thinking of buying the canvas version, as you can see the canvas version has a simpler watch face. i'm just thinking about it, it's a bit of a meme to me now. i have never owned a mechanical watch before. and i'm unlikely to ever spend thousands of dollars on a mechanical watch, i prefer my watches to be very efficient in the sense i don't have to spend much time doing anything to them.

God that must be difficult for them. I bet all they can do in such a situation is pick up their smartphone and dial the number for their AP. They probably don't get through. They probably get the voicemail.

>>18713629
This brand has watches they put a lot of shit on the case back, actually, but they decided not to on this one I guess. In a certain way there's actually more attention to detail put into it than Rolex does, they wouldn't do all of that circular brushing around the case back.

This sweet hand wind 38mm is on sale for $75 with a coupon. It's Chinese and all, but where will you find a better starter mechanical for that price? You really won't. And it's not an homage, it's original.
It only has K1 mineral glass, but that's a fair compromise. You're not getting sapphire on a Seiko or Orient starter for under $500.
It also comes with a pilot bezel and in different colors.
I think I'm going to get one for my nephew.

LOL, the janitor keeps removing my posts. WTF? We can play this game all day.

>>18713180
I knew a quartz would be the response to that. I kind of specified earlier in the post that I was talking about starter mechanicals. Perhaps you didn't realize that carried over to the sentence you're referencing. I'll be more clear next time.

>>18713192
They're going to delete it and all my other posts later. Or like 60% of them.

>>18713194
Because they can. Based on a technicality of some kind I don't understand.
Kid all you want about silver men watch. I don't write their copy. I'm actually going to buy one. I'll post it in a few weeks when it arrives. I don't give a rat's ass if anyone else does. Just sharing my enthusiasm, not pushing sales. And I'm getting the cheapest one. Not because it's the cheapest but because I like it the best and the numbers are backwards on the bezel. I don't understand all the weird variations on bezels anyway. Nor do I like diver/pilot/whatever rotating bezels much anyway.

>>18713198
Your personal preference notwithstanding, the topic didn't include quartz to begin with. It's bullshit that people push Seiko 5 and Bambino when they're utterly mogged by China in that price range. Just the facts.

>>18713199
The bracelets are sold out on the store I was looking at. I don't like those kinds of bracelets anyway. You can buy good jubilee bracelets for about $30 on that site. I got one for my Seiko 5 because its folded steel bracelet SUCKS.

I'm sure the bezel is like that on purpose. It's Merkur. But it's a bit cheaper than their usual watches. The ones I have are really nice.
Bezel must be for countdowns or something. They have different kinds. It's more suited to canvas though because of the style and history.

There actually is a watch with Chairman Mao I think doing a salute. I saw it on ebay a while back.
s. And that's the whole point.

>>18713203
I'm not poor. We're discussing starter watches. Why pay way more for an inferior watch when you're starting out? Get better quality if not an inspired design for $80 or spend what you would on those nip watches on IXDAO or San Martin and have the specs and finish of a $1,000 brand watch.
It's not like I don't continue to buy the overpriced watches as well now and then. I buy a dozen Chinese watches for every Japanese watch.
Because they're usually superior for the money. In my lowly collecting bracket that is. And that's the whole point.

>>18713218
What kind of a filthy casual do you think I am? I'd say at least 20% of my collection is quartz.

>>18713224
No, I have more than one of them and recommend them in the watch thread because they're not a decent buy.

>>18713235

I wish my life was so deceptive and exciting. I'd love for my collection of Asian watches to have inspired in me a desire to learn another language. I'm so fastidious about the use of this one I'd probably never be able to devote any of my brain to navigating another. I envy polyglots.

>>18713254
There is a happy medium you know.
$850 is not feeling incredibly financially reckless when it comes to this watch. A few more months and I'll convince myself it's worth it if I just don't buy the next 4-6 "shitters" with that money.

>>18713268
You think? Will it clash with my poor hobo rags, my frowsy hair, and general disheveled appearance? Maybe I don't want it after all. I'm a lowly dirtbag. I don't like puttin' on airs.

>>18713315
You can fix that? I had a watch where the day was off by 2mm or so in the window. I sent that shit back.

>>18713202
They decided that since their factories already produce all the parts for all the other watch companies of the world that they'd just copy the designs and use the best possible materials and sell the hit-or-miss watches for just over cost with the caveat of long shipping times and enough bad actors that there's a stink on the entire Chinese watch industry. But despite that the consensus is that they give you a lot of bang for your buck and they're really embarrassing the legacy brands who continue to offer shit specs for higher prices as they abandon the budget community and aim for a wealthier clientele. They have some stupid names some of them, but with certain brands the quality is undeniable.

>>18713725
Anyone can see they are not shitposts. I can post all day long from my phone but my PC posts get removed. Not sure why. But I'm not typing all of it and importing images to a phone. Too much trouble.

I'm not the guy posting his stools. That guy says he's just burning through different wifi sources in his neighborhood.

It's quite easy though. There's a site I cannot type here where everything looks like 4chan but it's not. And there's no captcha most of the time. And you can buy a 'gold pass' for $10 which bypasses any captchas you may get.

Most people use it to post really bad shit so the site is always in a tug of war with 4chan. But I'm using it responsibly. Always someone trying to ruin it for the rest of us.

context?

So this is the famous "/wt/" huh... the one you hear about all over The Chan from /a/ to /x/. The one general that has saved /fa/ as a whole and made this gay shithole board worth a visit or two.

I was promised:
>Japanese Bitches with fat titties
>I was promised rich lawyers with collection far exceeding millions of dollars
>Good coffee talk
>High quality professional images that would make anyone at /p/ reconsider if he's good at what he does
>A huge collection of pristine Weekdaters
>A highly knowledgeable Omega connoisseur
>Lots of Gold and Silver
>Drunk posts on Friday nights
>Qualified watchmakers going into autistic depth
>Rolexes, Grand Seikos, Mosers, Omegas, Breguets, Credors, F.P.'s--
>Wristshots on top of Japanese booty, sakura trees in the background, inside expensive cars, wristhots in Dubai, in Tokyo--
Hell, I was even promised Guns and people wearing their watches on their dicks. I was also promised Cat posting and even someone posting his stool next to high quality swiss made watches.

What I got instead is:
>Chinese watches
>300 posts, 12 images
>30% of the posts deleted
>People calling each other poor

Words can not describe how disappointed I am. I guess rumors did get the better of me, I came with zero expectations and yet I am leaving with disgust and being mad at myself for falling for those said rumors. I am not even going to waste time calling you "people" names, because you're not even worth that much.

sorry i just have to JORK it inbweteen calling my AD's voicemail to listen to her scathing tone as she bullies me again via her voicemail but next time she tells me i can buy a rolex I am definitely going to spend another 20k on it because I'm a good rolex retard that does what he is told!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try it on in a store. I thought I wanted one from the pictures and then when I tried it on I thought the 40mm looked big and goofy and the 35mm looked dainty and feminine. Ended up getting this Citizen instead which I thought fit much nicer despite being 41mm. I think the integrated bracelet on the PRX gives the appearance of very long lugs.

>>18713814
I would have copped the 35mm prx

I don't doubt that at some point in human history decent art was made using feces. The guy with his watches held over the toilet is not making decent art, let alone 'great'.

We will never know because good watches are not discussed here.

>>18713968
Though not for lack of effort. Even mentioning many brands will start a torrent of posters spamming stuff about how everyone here must be impoverished so no one could possibly afford any of those watches, thus there is no need to talk about them.

>>18713931
There is, but nobody can afford the entry fee anymore since they raised it.

>>18713981
I’m not interested in just posting pics of watches. I want to discuss them.

Every now and then, when the trolls are asleep or banned, there actually is decent discussion, which is why this place still exists. But those times are fewer and further in between.

I don't know if this is Mao or some other communist official or maybe he's the CEO's uncle. But this one is $28 and has a fish hook for a second hand.
There's something so cool about mechanical watches this cheap. Because this is what it was like before the advent of quartz. These were the beater Timexes, made with the bare minimum. But with all the working gears. And they still make them because there's still a market for them. It's weird to think of how there have always been really cheap watches. Like in Chinatown when Jake just buys pocketwatches to crush under car tires to tell him when someone left a location. It's like those terrible $10 Walmart shitters you couldn't imagine ever buying, but with fully mechanical movements in all of them. It's almost weird that these exist. But I also just bought a cassette tape of 'Dark Side of the Moon' from aliexpress (one of my old cars has a tape deck), so maybe technology is different there, like how Brazil was playing Sega Genesis for years after the rest of the world moved on.

>>18713987
Really? What are they like? Discussing the finer points of the design choices of Swiss brands over specific decades like fine wine vintages or some shit?

>>18713989
It can be all sorts of things.
Comparing old designs versus new is an example.
Discussing technical features, ownership experience, how a watch goes with certain outfits, strap options, helping anons discover new watches that they never would have considered or known about.
And because we’re anonymous, we can be honest without worrying about protecting the feelings of someone who likes a particular watch or owns it.

Only an idiot would buy that watch based on a terrible A.I. image that doesn't make sense. When browsing that bizarre bazaar you have to be able to get past all the scammy shit to find the quality watches and the other hilarious shitters like this one, which California thinks may harm you.

I bought one of those pullover pantyhose masks with Nicolas Cage's face on it. And also Gorbachev. They were $3 each. Fantastic stocking stuffers for the kids.

>>18714020
Kids, mortgage, no interest in having a really expensive watch that's such a generic "grail" to people with little imagination.

This is the key phrase. I know a lot of collectors who, like most people, started out being fixated on Rolex. Some people just get bored with Rolex. They’re not bad watches by any stretch, but they’re also not very interesting.
For my part, I don’t have any Rolex in my collection anymore since I never actually wore them.

>>18714028
>this is the key phrase
Yes, the phrasing was very deliberate. There's nothing wrong with deciding you're not into Rolex but you have to have at least one at some point.

>>18714076
>No, I'm not poor.
Well, I didn’t assume that but since you brought it up out of the blue it makes one wonder…

I've never felt the desire to own a Rolex either.
People say you should own one when you're 50 but in reality most people don't give a shit about watches and I work in freight and shipping so having a Rolex would be kind of gay.

>>18714068
>There's nothing wrong with deciding you're not into Rolex but you have to have at least one at some point.
I disagree with that premise, just like “Every serious collector NEEDS a Speedmaster”. It’s enough to simply handle a Rolex in person. If it’s something you hate right off the bat, there’s no need to have one. If you’re interested, then go ahead and buy one.

>>18714084
I became disgusted with Rolex when I handled one and saw the "rolexrolexrolex" text bordering the dial. Just repulsive to me on an instinctive level and I seriously hate that they do it.

>>18714086
I didn’t like the new Rolexes, but I found the older models from the 90’s and early 00’s to be quite nice and a lot more understated.
I wouldn’t mind an older Thunderbird.

>>18714089
At least they've moved on from the fuck awful Maxi case. I hope whoever thought that up was executed.

>>18714068
>There's nothing wrong with deciding you're not into Rolex but you have to have at least one at some point.
Disagree completely, I skipped this faggotry.
I feel like this is true with Casio and Seiko though, just because they're (actually) classics and cost nothing.

>>18714095
It seems like American children’s first watch is a Casio, while in Europe it’s a Swatch.

>>18714095
Seikos were classics because they were great designs at a value, but they've discontinued or bastardized all their great designs and now they're no longer cheap.

>>18714096
Yeah this is interesting. I never even heard of Swatch until I was in my 20s. Still kind of a rarity here in the states.
>>18714097
The classic designs still hit and people still seek them out. People that don't give a single fuck about watches will put in an iota of effort to get a traditional Seiko and call it a day. Some things are actually timeless and span cultures/interests without marketing manipulation.

>>18714103
>People that don't give a single fuck about watches will put in an iota of effort to get a traditional Seiko and call it a day.
They absolutely will not. They will go to the mall and simply pick the first watch that they like the looks and price of. They don’t go out of their way to buy a Seiko specifically. They certainly couldn’t name a single one of Seiko’s “classic” designs.

>>18714076
It's not for a "rite of passage," it's for the experience. Rolex isn't the pinnacle of the mountaintop, but it is the absolute best that a mass produced watch could possibly be and it is the yardstick for quality in luxury watches. Without experiencing day-to-day rolex wear and usage you might unironically believe affordable brands and cheap clones are "just as good," and when you eventually get hands on with higher end watches where each watch spends much more time with actual craftsmen working on them it allows you to appreciate that difference that much more. And you can decide that cheaper and less luxury watches work better for you, that's fine, but you still need that point of reference if you're really into the design and engineering and history and all that of watches.

But if you're not that into watches and just want one watch to wear then that's okay, too. But an AP or a Seiko or whatever you want. I'm not talking to that person, I'm talking to enthusiasts.

>>18714111
>I'm an expert on what people do despite never interacting with people

>>18714119

>>18714106
Oh yeah, i forgot we were in the turd thread

>>18714119
>>18714111
Seikos literally don't have names. The fans made up the names. That's one of the more annoying things about Japanese watch brands in general, they're all either like Seiko where every watch is just a model number with an unofficial nickname attached to it, or they're like Citizen where they come up with a line name like "promaster" or "Brycen" or something gay and call 14 totally unrelated watches with nothing in common in the collection under the same name.

>>18714111
>They certainly couldn’t name a single one of Seiko’s “classic” designs.
Seiko’s classic designs? There are none. They made some interesting dive watches in the 70s and a billion Rolex/Cartier ripoffs.
>oh, what about this particular innovation.
Not classic when they take the innovation and put it in an ugly watch.

Your head is so far up your ass. I don't think Rolex is really that much better and I've held and worn them. Guess I'd need a microscope to see the amazing differences that make it "worth" $15,000 extra.

>Seiya Japan no longer sells watches

I know he took like a 3 year break or whatever, I don't even know when he came back. Sucks that he stopped sourcing watches however because he was the best seller of Japanese watches.

To this day I don't know how he would ship them to the U.S. so quickly. I recall one time I received a G-Shock from him within 48 hours from placing the order, directly from Japan to the US East Coast, at no additional costs.

Guys, i held a Patek Philip once.

I'm an expert on the brand now. Ask me anything, i held one, so i know.

>>18714130
>held and worn
Yes but never owned one. Thats the difference. You didn't wake up an put it on so it would wind while you did your morning routine, then set it while you were sitting down with your coffee and toast. You didn't wear it every day for a week or two while you worked, drove a car, ran errands, cooked, jogged, cycled, maybe took a swim, went out on a date with your lady, played with the dog and the kids. Sitting in a chair in an air conditioned room looking in a little mirror for a few minutes does not tell you what it's like to actually use and live with a watch. I'd bet there are a lot of guys who buy big ole Panerais and Portuguiser chronographs thinking it's comfortable in the mall and then they get out into the real world and realize it's like a fuckin brick on their wrist while they're out with the family and they just stop wearing it.

>>18714145
None of that stuff is any different with a Rolex, dumbass. If you like any watch you can romanticize all those little moments just the same.

You are posting like you have a Rolex collection, so let's see them. With your dog and your kids and your jogging and your fucking toast.

I'm not talking about being sentimental. I'm talking about quality and comfort and ease of use. I wore the cheap watches that are thicker and heavier with shittier clasps and with a lot of friction in the keyless works operation and crown threads. I'm not going back. If the bracelet isn't silky smooth and the crown isn't effortless to wind and set the watch it totally ruins the watch for me.

Keyboard warriors do the same thing on /k/ when you're talking about the weight and quality of guns and gear that goes with it, where someone who actually uses guns says a 10 pound rifle with all kinds of doodads and bells and whistles on it is too heavy to carry in the field and all that bullshit is going to set it off balance and hang on shit and the trigger in it is going to be shit, and the armchair experts that bring their gun to the range twice a year(if they even have a gun) says "BRO you need to LIFT bro you need to build some MUSCLE on those GIRLY ARMS famalam you got SOFT HANDS boy!" They're too ignorant of what they're talking about to even comprehend how ignorant they are because they've never done it. They haven't seen the difference. They've never chafed and bruised and cut themselves using shitty equipment and then appreciated the relief that comes with using the good shit.

Rolex has always been expensive relatively to the rest of the market. In the 50s/60s brands like Juvenia, Certina, LIP, Enicar or Tissot were already making Rolex copes for 1/10th of the price. These shitter brands were the Seikos of their time.

Your whining just motivates me even more

Perhaps I should make some videos about the Rolex Retards' the dumb cucked goyim who promote Rolex and all the gay faggotry Rolex does to their customers

The thing is, when it comes to Rolex Retards, if you stop showing them how Rolex destroys their dignity and emasculates them, they will start squawking and blabbering aboit how Rolex is the best and owning a Rolex makes them a better man than everyone else.

I think some watch guys will own multiple copies of the same watch, even if they don't admit to it.

>>18714350
I thought about this claim for a minute and I think you're right. In all seriousness, think about it. Why does this watch specifically matter? It's the first TUDOR that pops into mind whenever the brand is mentioned. TUDOR has been known for 100 years by now of being the quite Literal entry point to Luxury watches. It's the gatekeeper, the price point-decider on what is considered Luxury. That's a huge thing, no matter how you look at it.
Anything below TUDOR is considered "casual" and entry level, everything TUDOR and after is considered Luxury.
-Not Longines
-Not Oris
-Not Nomos
-Not Sinn
-Not Christopher Ward
-Not TAG Heuer
Hell, not even Grand Seiko, Omega or Breitling- THE gatekeeper to LUXURY is TUDOR, it has been established since 1926 and it will forever remain that way. If there's not Tudor, there's nothing keeping the floodgates closed and in check.
Everyone (everyone) who's honest with you and knows about watches, if you ask them:
>"Genuinely, what's the One ONE AND DONE watch for someone who simply wants a nice piece for Every single occasion but also wants to wear one everyday and Never have to think about watches again?"
if you've been slightly into watches for more than a week, you will answer
>"TUDOR"
in Caps, firm and unshaken. Because it is the only answer. Not the only Correct answer, but the Only answer in general.

For me, it's Casio.
My luxury watch is made by Casio.
Casio is a watch brand that makes watches.
My luxury watch is a watch made by the Casio watch brand which is a company that make watches and I bought one of their watches which I wear and it is my luxury watch that I bought from Casio, a watch company that makes watches, for people who like watches and want to own and wear watches.

I'm being completely honest when I write that if I were to see a man in ownership of a rolex i would, without any degree of doubt, be completely prepared for him to ask me to fuck his wife whilst he watches.

Unfortunately, all of that is in your head. Rolex is not significantly better in the ways you think. Day to day wear would be no different. It's really only under magnification that the differences are even apparent.
If someone traded yours for one of the 95% as good replicas you would NEVER know the difference. You think you would, but you wouldn't. Because it takes an expert to even discern those little differences.
You are aware that plenty of companies have caught up now, aren't you? Or have you been staring only at your "precious" for ten years in a row.

brother that is literal atomic radiation causing light to hit your eyes. this isn't some childrens toy. I want you to consider this deeply, please. I know people. People who have nothing to lose. Please just deeply consider the post you wrote and then consider how the light emerges from those tiny tubes.

>Why would they do that, when you’re obviously a faggot?

This is what Rolex thinks of you. Now stfu and go blow some more AD cocks so you can MAYBE be allowed to buy a fucken overpriced steel watch LOL

You have to do the sleep test.
If your watch doesn't feel so good on your wrist that it basically... disappears. Like it just feels so good, so well made for your wrist that is ceases to even feel like you're wearing a watch at all. And if you can't easily sleep with it on, and even more so, get a full deep wonderful restful sleep.... Then you may need to look at a new watch that is a better fit for you.

Have you ever done the sleep test?

>>18714513
I already have one and don’t need another. I’m happy with just one in my collection.

>>18714515
That's nice, you don't seem like a typical arrogant rolex faggot. Taht's cool. What else is in your watch collection? Do you keep anything from earlier in your life or is it a pretty fresh collection?

I'm thinking about buying a limited edition orient star.

Anyone own an orient star or had any good or bad experiences with them?

>>18714516
I keep all my watches
First watch was a Kenneth Cole. I have a few Gshocks, Luminox Carbon, Citizen Tsuyosa, Trump watch, Explorer 2 was my grail watch. Been looking at the IWC Mark xviii in white. Wish I could find a Sinn 556 in white

LOLOLOLOLOL

That's all you needed to say. You're a fucking retard.

What watch do you guys want right now

>>18714512
I know what it is. It looks like some abomination collaboration between Lego and Lite Brite. There are classier ways to do it than just stack blocks in the simplest pattern to create numbers.
I'd rather have radium with a really tight seal.

Nice. Any that surprised you? Sinn watches look quite nice.

>>18714531
I want a limited edition orient star. It is semi-skeleton. It shows the power level and a few other things. I don't own any mechanicals watches and I don't really want to own heaps. Most of my watches are digital tools. But I like this orient star.

>>18714533
Yeah for sure I get your point. The watch isn't classy.
And the coloured tubes do carry a certain aesthetic similar to toys for children.
Yet I still like it.
I personally get a bit bored of almost every watch attempting to be classy. Too many of them end up looking so similar to each other. Quite boring, at least imo.

I'd definitely like to see more uses of those tubes in ways that are 'high end' looking.

>>18714521
I have two secondhand Kenneth Cole watches from my dad.

No matter what you mean by Trump watch, mine trumps it.

>>18714544
No one actually bought his gaudy gold watch with the signature on the dial for $100,000.

I really want to like this, but that last point is too niggling.

It's not in my head. I wore a steel rolex every day for the last week up to earlier today before I put on a gold omega to take my wife to dinner. I know watches, I own watches, I've worn a lot of them for years, and some scrub on the internet that probably doesn't have anything higher level than a made in China Seiko isn't going to tell me I don't know wtf I'm talking about.

>>18714544
what happens at 10:15???

>>18714553
i feel like i'm getting deja vu right now.
Are you saying the rolex fits on your arm so superbly that you actually stop feelinng like you're wearing a watch, at all?
Because if so, that sounds amazing.
I own a 600 dollar watch that does this for me. I slept in it last night! It's a heavier stainless steel watch but somehow it just feels perfectly made for my wrist, it is silky smooth, soft even, yet firm, and effortless, weightless, somehow. magical. incredible.

>>18714552
Timex quartz movements are the absolute bottom of the barrel, without exaggeration. If that's a dealbreaker for you then just get a VH31-module Chinese homage, they even come unbranded these days so there's no Woo Ping logo on it. It'll have the same specs.

>I own a 600 dollar watch that does this for me
No, you don't. You are too ignorant to even know how ignorant you are. But the information has been given to you and you have a choice to make. You can either consider it and educate yourself, or you can choose to remain ignorant and walk through this world living a lie for the rest of your days.

>>18714553
I'm not missing out on anything by not owning a Rolex. You are not having any profound experience that I can't have. You want to feel like you're part of something very important and exclusive but you are not. It's the name you care about. The $500 super clones being virtually indistinguishable, you would not know the difference. The watch you claim to have could be fake for all anyone knows.

>before I put on a gold omega to take my wife to dinner. I know watches, I own watches

The pomposity of your post made me laugh aloud. So I appreciate the entertainment. You're playing your character very well.

Thank you for reading my post and for writing me a response.
Yeah I just love how my watch feels lol. It's a pure stainless steel heavy rig. But it feels super smooth, silky. Almost like.. water. It's amazing. It's incredible. It fits perfectly on my wrist. I forget I am even wearing it. I slept with it on my wrist last night and I had an amazing sleep! It only cost me 600 dollars, this incredible watch, it is marvellous.

>>18714553
Yeah mate I'll just do my stretches now, gonna use my casio to time my stretches, a clean 1 minute each leg, get my glutes firing nicely. I'll be ready to fuck your wife later tonight buddy. You don't have to ask me again ahahaha. I know when you put the rolex down and pick up the omega you're playing coy, but we all know you bought and wear a rolex. Your wife's pussy will be serviced by my big casio cock. All good buddy! Maybe call your Rolex AD whilst I'm fucking your wife. Jerk yourself off whilst you listen to the AD's voicemail and how they talk down to you.

You called into question whether I have the knowledge and experience to know the difference between levels of quality at different levels and price points in watches. I was just answering to that. I've been there and done all that shit. If you're telling me you can't discern the difference in quality between aliexpress and seiko and rolex and its many clones you just out yourself with your own ignorance. Even if you can't tell if a watch is fake or not from a photograph you can immediately get the feeling something isn't right handling and wearing the watch 9 times out of 10. Even the professional authenticators, when you see them making those youtube videos about how scary accurate clones are getting because they got a really convincing clone come into the store that day, the reason they questioned the authenticity in the first place was because something looked or felt wrong. Before they even opened the case to see the movement something about the outside of the watch tipped them off. They even clone the movements sometimes, you even have to look deeper into the movement to tell. But in any event, SOMETHING was wrong. The crown didn't feel right. The bracelet didn't feel right. The magnifier didn't look right from a certain viewing angle. You don't just take apart a watch and start investigating if you don't suspect anything is wrong with.
