Absolutely - I'm still at least a year away from making a decision. I might save the Patek for later and stick with something else for now.

So...Hamilton and Omega both suck?

I own that Lorus for years now and love it. my only gripe is that the crown hurts because I wear it on my right wrist being left-handed. it's a bit better if you use it on a nato strap.
pic is not mine but brown leather works so well with creme/off-white dials. works great for that off-white Seiko 5 SNK803 too.

Since when did you big nigs start using the /g/ thing? Also, what do you all think about the k-34? Its basically my grail at this point.

I went to the local jeweler or whatever you call it in english where they sell watches and jewelery because I got a 100€ coupon (voucher?) as a birthday present I think spending like 100€ (=200€) for my first watch is enough I liked some of them but dunno the ones I REALLY like where like 800€+ but the ones for up to 200€ looked fine too
pic related is what brands they have available any of these brands I should avoid?
Eli Perry
I like it user
Xavier Cox
Wow, what a shitty gift. Every single brand is fashion dogshit except Casio.
Kayden Parker
Casio is fine, guess Fossil is alright aswell. Please dont buy an armani or diesel watch.
Wyatt Sanders
i actually think movado/nomos watches are fairly good looking but that doesnt changethe fact theyre overpriced with crap movments
Juan Hughes
What's the deal with this watch? Is it just a meme?
Gabriel Gonzalez
I hesitate between the plastic and the golden one wat do ?? In what case can i wear the gold f91 like watch i don't even know what its called anymore
Charles Bennett
what do you mean? the "Casio" logo on the display? it works with almost every digital casio watch. I've heard you just need to push all buttons at once and then "Casio" shows up on the screen. I guess they do this to verify if it's a real Casio or a counterfeit item.
I haven't received the one I posted yet, still waiting for the deliver and try it out.
Isaac Brown
buy casio or a g-shock. everything else is shit
Aiden Taylor
I had a festina tour de france 2009 it was good and costed me like 300 bucks too bad it got stolen. Girls went crazy over it.
Jackson Richardson
You actually have to hold the button on the right for 5escs if casio doesnt show up you got ripped off pal. You should always be at the store to try out these things given how many fake casios are on sale
Parker Morales
out of these the only good ones are:
Casio Jaques Lemans Festina
I'd get either Casio or Festina since I got no experience with JL watches.
Casio has nice digital watches but if you go for a nicer piece they also got some decent looking analog watches as well. Festina isn't bad either, one step above Casio since they got cooler looking designs. Their diver watches look fun and it's more or less a quality brand in terms of watch manufacturing. they focus on sport watches and the Lotus subbrand does that especially.
you can totally ditch all the other brand deals. kind of a shit list.
Jose Reed
get the fuck out
Logan Gomez
nigger.
Grayson Taylor
it's a w-59 I bought on Amazon. Amazon doesn't have fake offers so often. I'm pretty sure it's legit and I'll receive a box with tags and all that anyway. if it's fake I can send it back but I'm not worried because the chinese fakers only sell colored F91 watches with a black inner frame and scratched out Casio logo and the buyers post reviews as well if they got fucked over.
Jackson Sanders
y tho?
Colton Turner
Because you're recommending shitty fashion brands.
Nathan Murphy
I'd get a plastic one because everybody complains about the silver/gold paint coming off sooner or later.
digitals are more of a tool watch anyway. and I say that despite liking the B640 look but what good does that do if everybody complains about the case not being metal except for the bracelet?
Gabriel Gray
at least be specific. stupid one liner responses don't mean shit, faggot.
Ryan Thomas
so what should he do with his coupon then? wipe his ass with it? if he got something like that, he might as well use it because there is nothing else he could do with it.
Lucas Williams
I though about that too its more convenient as an utilitary tool i wonder if.its normal plastic.or.resine case but i've heard it handles shocks pretty well and some of them last for.20 years or so thats impressive for its dirt cheap price plus the design never went out of style in decades Anyway i currently have a swatch diaphane full blooded with swarovsky crystals as time markers but can't wear it daily with anything so i guess i am taking the plastic casio and i don't care for the meme

Chase Hill
at what point did you actually forget that pretty much any thread on Veeky Forums is a free-for-all place for any sort of discussion and therefore an obvious place for learning and exchanging knowledge as well?
isn't even being helpful despite being asked to and just responds with a cryptic picture that doesn't even refute anything, except maybe halfway. but even that is questionable.
and you're not better in the slightest. share your watch-related knowledge if you have it, that's what the thread is for or just leave.
Mason Long
thank you I looked through some of their watches and I don't know so far I only like the pic related ones should I cop?
I tend to the casio one in the middle
I guess I can't pull off the gold one without looking dumb as fuck heh
Lincoln Howard

There used to be watch brand infographic idk if i can find it
Kayden Davis
the pyramid one? that was pretty good. it correctly called out all the ETA zombie brands and the cheep chinese shit ones below them. i remember what youre talking about oooh shit no fucking way. you sure bested me man by stating your idiocy is justified because you can post it. congratz you dumb fuck
Easton Johnson
you have strange taste. firstly never buy a fake gold watch because it is literally the most tacky thing you could wear and youll feel ashamed of it. i know this from experience. secondly fossil is considered a bad brand because they keep their prices low by having very bad QC of all of their watches. Casio in the middle is by far the best. Get it.
Daniel Anderson
casio and bottom fossil (a real shitter) look ok, For that kind of money you should get a seiko 5or something of similar quality .or just buy a ring or bracelet or some jewelry instead . buying a shit watch is worse than buying nothing. but it's your money so do what you want to do. the meme he posted is actually real. fashion brands, in most cases, are manufactured in the same factories and with the same parts as other low end watches (mike Kors watches are basically are made by Fossil). they are made for dumb plebs who want to be fashionable and don't care if their shitter falls apart in one year . if you really want to get into watches, start lurking /wt/, watchuseek or other forums.
Casio in the middle or Festina diver one in the right. Both are fine. Up to you. I always wanted to cop the Festina diver because it's a dope design. Not bad for what they send you either. There is also a leather strap version and they come with two different straps so Can switch them Out.
Daniel Anderson
you're a vile insensitive Little fuckwad who can't handle the truth. Watch elitism is pretty horrible and you missed the point entirely. He can only buy semishitters with his voucher anyway and you never even aknowledged that he is restricted by the Brand deals like that and instead attacked me like a fucking retard for giving him decent suggestions. There are people every single thread who are new to watches and you decide to fuck them over with a shit attitude like this. Fuck you. Btw Archie is a horrible rolemodel. He is too poor to afford his luxury pieces now on top of that. You will never make a good point and you never even tried.
James Kelly
Please just leave watch conversations up for big boys. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about and won't admit it when called out, even though it's an anonymous website. You are clearly underage, just go post in the WAYWT thread.
Noah Morales
holy shit please leave and comtempalte killing yourself. Sorry your feefees are hurt cunt. Have fun spending money on terrible products because you fail to understand basic logic. You say im the one who cant handle the truth but youre the one crying over facts. You cant even reply to the correct post so pleae for the love of god stop posting
Benjamin Barnes
just lol. >being this butt frustraited by people calling out shit brands >2017 and not knowing watches yet posting on the watch thread come on man, post your collection of fossils and invicta with maybe a fake rolex or two as well.

Is this an ok minimalist watch for under $30?

Levi Nguyen
Still be careful. This has been an issue with firearm optics, so I assume its possible with watches on amazon. What some people do is >buy the legit item >Swap it with a fake and return it >hope whatever smuck is checking doesn't know his shit >sell item on eBay Meanwhile the fake gets sent to someone without whoever Amazon is fulfilling even knowing. It's rare, but does happen.
Jack Moore
Seems like the Casio will give you sapphire glass, which will prevent scratches and is a good deal at that price point.
It's also the most versatile design and the best brand so it's a no brainer.

/g/ is better but too fast Veeky Forums attracts tumblr-esque/redditor teens like we've observed but the speed is just right
Jordan Bennett
I unironically want one of these. I dig the simple, utilitarian design. Is the W59 the best one to get? I'm looking around online and I see a few of them that look similar. One that's labeled F-91W, for example, is a few dollars cheaper than the W59. Enlighten me please.
Lincoln Hall
You people are gonna kill me for this, but what's the best looking metal strap watch I can get for less than 150?
Imagine pic related without the tachymetre thing (but keeping the black circle), smooth looking hands such as this ones, no fancy circles in the back (not a problem tho), I don't know what I'm aiming for, this would be my first watch, I care about looks and a bit about durability, but I don't give two shits about all the watch stuff, I don't know what an automatic is, I want it for fashion.
It doesn't even have to have 3 hands, I just care about an affordable good looking watch
Liam Wilson
SXK007 or Ray are similar
Ian Lewis
I'm So you get an idea, I also like the middle one here This oneDig the colour but hate the watch itself I also have an interest in pic realted style clocks
Michael Bell
Those two seem nice, although every seiko I've laid eyes on seems to have those hands I hate, I feel like they give the watch a childish look
Noah Robinson
The ray looks cleaner due to the larger face and shallow bevel
Elijah Price
both look good, but the new ray is a much better watch for the price
Brandon Hill
Only in house movt watch I can think of with a Sapphire Crystal for under $150
The Seiko, despite being the parent company of orient ships out labor to Malaysia for the lower end movts by definition not in-house

Bought this vintage Soviet Pobeda with Bauhaus dial for just 26€ shipped, what do you think?

Joseph Howard
Trying to find out information about this Rolex I inherited from my late Grandfather that was owned by his father before him.
The band is not original to the time piece, that I know. It has been to a few Rolex stores to be sent out for cleaning and he was informed an original band would cost around $2K (This was a few years ago).
It was purchased roughly sometime in the 1960's, that is all I know. Anything you all can help me would be cool. Other than me myself bringing it to a Rolex store.
Some dude on Veeky Forums claims its fake but wouldn't they have informed my grandfather it was fake at some point during the multiple times it was sent out to Rolex themselves?
Aiden Nguyen
The fact that they replaced a factory band with that tacky ill fitting one makes me think it's a fake also. I wouldn't trust this board for info. Go ask Reddit, they have "experts"
Grayson Collins
recommend a nice automatic watch that has good resell value for 3k-ish?
Matthew Garcia
Does it have to be a $3k watch, let alone with good resale value? The Cocktail Time is great for ~450. Halios Delfin Tudor Breitling Omega Seamaster pro Omega Seamaster AT Frederique Constant
Andrew Roberts
Looks to be a bad counterfeit of an early date just. The hands are wrong, the logo is wrong.
Flip the case over and open the case back and give me a good shot of the movement with a high end DSLR and a professional macro lens
And I can tell you for sure
Benjamin Rodriguez
it's just what I'm willing to spend at the moment thanks for your recommendations I like the breitling transocean and omega speedmaster, but the editions I like are a bit too expensive I'll keep my eyes open for a good used one though
Anthony Davis
Band was damaged and my grandfather had it replaced with this one.
>Looks to be a bad counterfeit of an early date just. The hands are wrong, the logo is wrong.
Can you find me a photo of this style watch to help me figure that out? Again Rolex themselves have never given him the watch back and informed him of being a counterfeit. They have serviced it several times.
Is this watch too dressy? I'm starting university this year and I don't want it to seem so. The /wt/ on /g/ couldn't give me a definite answer.
Austin Myers
Change the strap to a perlon or leather NATO of your choice and you won't have this dilemma.
Christian Howard
Even with jeans and a T-shirt or long sleeved T-
Leo Young
Yes. A beige perlon is a great first choice. It's breathable and matches most clothes.
Michael Johnson
Grand Seiko is also decent.
Matthew Scott
really really beautiful desu
Austin Rogers
That's my pic. AMA. It's a solid watch with a full lume dial where the yellow color is actually suitable. Whole thing is manufactured in China sans movement but it's decent for the price and for the uniqueness. They're released in small batches, this being the second batch/series. Third was recently released including one with tritium, and the full lume model now black pvd coated.
Andrew Morales
beige perlon even with the black dial? isn't the black dial more versatile?
