Do you prefer sake or vodka

the citizen is better, vostoks are shit

thinking about getting this classic swatch irony right here.
thoughts?

Scuba Dude all the way, citizens are for brandwhores.

>citizens are for brandwhores.

Since when? It's not a pretentious nor an over-expensive brand at all.

This model has a military past like the Amphibia as well since it used to be the official diver's watch of the Italian navy.

>Since when? It's not a pretentious nor an over-expensive brand at all.
It's for people that want the submariner but can't afford it, like the fox and the grapes.

>owning a diver's watch, no matter how unique its design is, means you want a submariner.

You sound genuinely stupid, user.

>hear some good things about Orient
>could get one up to 50 dollars cheaper than a local store

Is there any way to tell I'm getting a fake forgery on ebay?

There are no Orient fakes since it's not a premium brand. Just avoid anything coming from India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam or Philippines and you'll be ok.
Btw the local stores are the real jews, you can trust eBay.

How about Hong Kong?

Thanks for the tip

Rate.

look bredy cool family

...

>cyclops hardly magnifies
nice fake idiot

Utter shit, chink piece of garbage with a crappy extremely low quality quartz movement and fedora-core design pretending to be German made and have some heritage.
Why the fuck would you want to see your wrist through the dial?
-20/10, throw it away and get a Seiko, Citizen, Casio or Vostok if you are a poorfag.

i never say it was legit fagget

>owning a fake watch

What a colossal faggot, get yourself some decency.

>horrid fake
>wearing it over the ulna

lmao

that Citizen looks nothing like a Sub

y/n

Best watch coming through. Find a flaw.

Protip: you can't.

yuck, no way. it's a tryhard seiko alpinist and much, much uglier

>Find a flaw
Hublot rip-off

>those decorative screws

It's basically nigger tier, I wouldn't be surprised if you weren't white anyway.

I was actually only thinking about the design, but could only find a nice photo of the green one. Maybe I'll just get a sun&moon or whatever they call it

nice b8 faggots

>being this delusional

Keep jerking to the nigger watch you won't ever afford.

Watches are worn slightly superior to the ulna styloid process, he is wearing it on the carpals.

Currently I have a cheapo Timex and a 50's Waltham (probably Swiss made unfortunately) as my main timepieces, but I'm thinking about getting something midcentury and oriental.

60's~70's Seiko dress and sports watches (Lord Marvel, Marvel, Grand Seiko, Seikomatic, Sportsmatic, Actus, etc) seem to fit the bill and they seem to be going around ebay for anything between 40 and 300 dollars. What would you guys pay for these kinds of watches?

...

APs are timeless

Cheap QnQ. Cause I like orange.

since ya'll didn't like my tag heuer, I bought this 16610 a few months ago

I hate brands that are obvious knock-offs of rolex or omega

great watch. I plan on getting one somewhere in the future

Cop or not?

>post shitty fake
>gets called out
>LOL I NEVER SAID IT WAS LEGIT

autism my friends, autism

you are actually fucking autistic.
do you actually talk like that in real life?

You sound poor and uneducated

I wear skinny ties with slim belts. I want a small minimalistic watch, but nothing too modern (the designs you get when you start googling minimalistic watches).
any recommendations? I often see great looking watches for women, might have to check those out

im not tho
answer the question.

That's not me

You sound retarded

Nomos

at least im not a faggot

whatever you say buddy

What the fuck are you guys on about

You wear watches on your wrist

i want to get a watch but have no idea where to start looking. seen some nice black ones but i'm just wondering if anybody could recommend any?
preferably black with metal strap and less than £500

Look at Seikos m8

...

I can't. The stainless, regular production Offshore is a really fun but also top-tier quality sport watch. Don't care for the special editions for the most part.

The special editions are an adoption of Hublot marketing, but the original Royal Oak was the first of its kind and the Offshore isn't exactly a radical departure from that.

>everything has to be seamless
>no fun allowed
Some people can afford to have a little fun with their $20k watches. The screws are evocative of naval architecture elements.

Which sun&moon watch? I'm interested in one too

Seiko SARB033 or SARY057

Someone else chiming in, no they really do look like some stupid tacky macho vin diesel shit.

Skx007

not a fan of the offshore desu

too heavy, convoluted, and too many different materials

i'd honestly rather get a PP naut rather than waste my money on some gaudy AP

>implying you can afford either

But they look so good on women.

It's not really a watch to be worn with a suit for those reasons, I guess.

>I'd rather just get a watch that costs twice as much
Yeah so would most people.

never implied i could afford either, moron

just a personal preference

cost is irrelevant. the AP royal oak and PP naut both have extremely similar standards of quality. just a personal preference

sport watches look like shit on women desu

luxury watches in general on a woman just scream 'my husband/father is rich'

women don't know shit about horology

post abominations

>luxury watches in general on a woman just scream 'my husband/father is rich'
That's a pretty hot look T B H

Fair enough. Pateks just seem to appeal to an older demographic. My dad has one from when he graduated (he didn't pick it out) but never wears one because he feels like he never dresses to match such a conservatively formal watch.

the japanese abomination

high maintenance whores are not attractive

fuck you i like monsters

not my fault you've got shit taste in watches

should get those eyes checked out m8

Protip: you don't have to marry them.

Also some rich kids are just super chill.

>The screws are evocative of naval architecture elements.

The screws are evocative of the superfluous HEAVY-DUTY detailing on products for Monster-drinking man-children

Are they though?

Reminds me of a Hublot, which is a bad thing.

that's because Hublot's entire identity is based on ripping off AP

and the nautical influence is so explicit in both you'd have to be willfully ignorant to not see. Even the name Hublot comes from the French for "porthole."

Hublot and AP were run by the same dude you mong. Hublot means 'porthole'; the PP Nautilus is based on the same concept.

crocco had nothing to do with AP, retard

I'm talking about Jean-Claude Biver you chimpanzee.

>not liking Hublot
fuck you guys

>Jean-Claude Biver
he never "ran" AP you stupid shithead, he had a job as a sales manager for a year and then left.

god it's like you're retarded or something

He was involved with with AP, and took its designs to Hublot.

is that real

That's actually really nice. I doubt I could afford it, but w2c?

orientwatchusa.com/collections/mens-watches/executive/eu0a003b

it's an Orient so it's actually pretty affordable. don't know if the green face is still available anywhere but the retail price is only $255 USD. you can probably find a deal on that quite easily

those are different watches

"involved" as in he saw the royal oaks he was selling and wanted to steal the design at hublot, yeah. doesnt mean he fucking ran ap like you said, idiot

holy shit that looks like trash

looks like he's being attacked by a robotic insect

Considering buying this as a piece I can wear with all my outfits. The model is SNDD63P1. Opinions?

I dislike busy watches. the most I can stand is Portuguese-styled chronographs

I don't even get how this works, how do you read the date off of this thing?

Yeah, I think it's supposed to look like a Ferrari engine

please be b8

They aren't decorative. They screw all the way to the back of the watch and help to increase its waterproofness

Love AP, I have a diver and you can really wear it with anything

This is totally wrong.

The Nautilus and Royal Oak were both designed by Gerald Genta.

Hublot just rips them off

it's kinda ugly looking and probably heavy as hell.

I have smallish wrists, would a Vostok just look ridiculous on me?

I don't think so. Seen some girly-wristed faggots wearing them.

Choose, do you wanna get beat up for being a fag, a commie or a Heineken fan?

anyone got any experience with Bagelsport?

Dammit OP that's in really good condition. Now I'm tempted to blow my watch funds on vintage Omega Geneve just to have a dress watch. Still need to cop a Gen 2 X-33 because muh Mars watch.

No.
