So /g/, why are 99.9% of women's watches such ugly dogshit? I'm trying to help my girlfriend pick out something decent and I'd like to know if you guys have any suggestions.

It should be dressy enough for business clothing, preferably on a bracelet but leather is ok, around 34mm and definitely more than 30mm and less than 38mm, price hopefully around $200-$300, no real preference for auto or quartz. No fake diamonds and shit.

As much as I like Seiko, their women's options are pretty fucking awful except for a couple of JDM Dolce or Exceline models I've found. It's a shame because she really likes my SARB035 but 38mm is too masculine looking, and she wears my penisquartzes occasionally but does not want something vintage. Orient seems to have only a few women's models and they are also awful. Pic related (Hamilton Viewmatic) seems perfect but she's hesitant to spend $500+ on her first real watch.

>>52670494
Thanks, yours too!

Women are often not interested in watches, or when they are, often not nor than the most simple outward appearance and brand name matters. That's, in large part, why it doesn't pay to make many outstanding it interesting watches for women.

Is your girlfriend an especially.. large.. woman? Just curious why you're looking at only men's size watches for her.

Well, it doesn't look weird at all imo, at least compared to the first Soviet watch I owned, this Pojot with 2614.2H movement. I resold it a year ago and lost some money, I hope it won't happen again.
Russian and especially Soviet watches are usually good little investments because of their collectibility, if you pick the right models you can always hope to get your money back.

No she's pretty thin, wrists are like 6" maybe at most. 34mm is hardly men's sized in 2016, though. I guess down to like 30mm is ok but when they get really small like pic related the proportions don't really look as good in my opinion.

Besides unlike men women tend to enjoy feminine looks. Something blocky verging on
being oversized isn't very feminine looking at all, even if scaled down for a qt wrist.
I wouldn't go over 32mm.

There's a lot more to watches than fashion my friend. As much as anyone loves a good looking watch, the movements are just as important and have been around for decades, horology and technology in recording time has been around for 500 years (200-300 years before electricity was invented).

So if any thread deserves to be on /g/, its /wt/. Now fuck off.

There's the Junghans Max Bill Ladies that 32.7mm I'd probably get my gf if she actually wanted another watch. A bit above the stated budget though.

>>52671165
Nineball what got you into watches? Was it that diving experience you had with the diving watch you mentioned last thread?

Convince her to go vintage

>>52671900
Maybe, but she's apparently grossed out at buying a watch that others have worn. I'm jealous of how cheap women's watches are, an Oyster Princess costs maybe half as much as an Oyster Prince, for example.

>>52671403
34mm is still a men's Rolex oyster perpetual size. 31mm is often called boy's size, because it's often for small or young guys, but could go on a large woman.

If you want to get her a mechanical watch one of your best, and only options near your price range is the Orients. WZ039NR is a decent option. 411 if you get the mother of pearl dial. Quartz opens the options further. But a lot of sub300 women's quartz watches are pretty meh

>>52672038
It really depends on her size overall (not just in the fat/thin sense) and personal preference.

The tiniest women's watches are far tinier (in proportion) to a woman's wrist than a typical men's watch to a man's, a 31mm would be very fine for a lot of girls. Even 38mm may go but it'll probably look a bit bulky already.

>If the chinks put the same kind of effort in making original designs... Well actually they wouldn't make anything good, because all they know is to copy.

Truth. When it comes to rig and ship design, they still need European design companies to design for them. All they do otherwise is keep rehashing the same thing. Give 'em another 10 or 15 years and they might do better. Copy culture is a bit too big in China though.

>>52672240
Seiko 5s are really cheap looking in my opinion and the bracelets are trash. The SNK ones are also not dressy at all. I was thinking more like a 6R15-tier Seiko or something quartz but similarly good. It seems from the Seiko SAR Finder site that all the SAR* models are for men, though.

The Chinese could make decent watches if they wanted. The pre-market economy watches with the Chinese Standard Movement were pretty good for the time, I have a late 70's Baoshihua and there's nothing horrific about it. Too bad the standard movement is now only produced in the form of those horrible Ebay skeleton watches and shitty fake Rolexes.

The truth is fake chinkshit makes a better profit that original good-quality chink.

>>52671957
Consider something like the SYME39K

Being a 5, there's shitloads of models out and about.

>>52671744
Nope. I liked that watch in particular, but it did not spur me on to liking watches at the time.

Hard to say exactly. At some point I asked myself, as many people do, why some watches, like Rolex, are so expensive. And while some people just answer their own question by assuming it's some sort of rich person's toy and based solely on brand names and precious metals, I learned about watches, decided I liked what I was hearing about different escapements and the use of silicon, the evolution of jewels in a watch and other parts of watchmaking and decided to get into it.

But really I also like all sorts of clock and watch stuff now. Actually, if not the Credor, I was about to buy an Atmos. And if any of you doing know about this clock, you need to for sure Google jlc Atmos clock, it's a really cool piece. But I'll put of the Atmos clock for now, I'll probably be moving soon an don't really want to move an Atmos. I've also been pretty interested to get a 3d printer for various things I want to make, and I'd also totally do one of the 3d printed clocks people have made with the 3d printed balance wheel.

How about you?

My story is kinda off and on with watches. I guess my interest in horology first began when i was a child and always having an interest in my grandfathers grandfather clock and my great uncles clock too. Hence my love for movements and not for quartz. But later on i set my interests aside to take on education in computers etc but still being around watches such as my grandfather having 2 quartz Seiko's and my uncles Rolex if i remember rightly. But my interest in watches still remained aside.

Later on in life my friend decided to buy a watch and suggested for me to get a watch since he knew my application for complex design and engineering. I put it off for a while since i knew watch collecting would be an expensive thing to get into but none the less he convinced me to get into watches and my interest was restored again (not long ago, am still pretty new into watch collecting). I did have previous watches in the past but none of them were real expensive or serious watches. My first real watch that was a few months ago was a Hamilton Khaki Mechanical. I lurked a lot here to get advice and to see which movements were good or not and to see what kinds of watches am really interested in. I even unboxed the Khaki in /wt/ a while ago.

Ever since then I've been here a lot more and have came up with a list of mid to high tier watches i plan on saving for in the next couple of years or so. I guess thats how i gotten into the whole idea of watch collecting.

I study maths/engineering and I showed the Seiko 5 i was wearing one day to a friend. He was like "k" then I told him to flip it around and he looked at it for like 5 minutes.
There's definitely something there. People who like engineering, problem solving etc. can appreciate the elegant way in which a watch movement solves the problem of keeping and telling time.
Quartz is ok, but not elegant or interesting. It's more or less perfectly solved.

>>52672785
Agree with you anon. I have a few friends i have shown watches to (online skeletons to display the movement and my Khaki) and even though it interests them, i don't think they're technically minded enough to appreciate such a beautiful yet complex design that go's into a time piece. A lot of people can take movements for neglect but realistically its one of the most amazing things to admire. Especially in today's day and age where everything is done with circuits and electricity.

No, you didn't. Anyway here's one of the few watches that does the date subdial right, the SARW-010. The 31 is a bit smaller than the 1 and far enough away, so they're clearly separate, it doesn't look like a bent 311. Also the subdial is at the 6 o'clock position, not at 3, where it makes the whole face unbalanced.

I don't, because you wouldn't have bought a lollini - no one buys those because no one's thirsty for those.

If you'd wanted a status symbol, you'd have best been served getting a sub, a date, or a day date.

college poorfag here. got this watch as a christmas gift. it's decent as a daily watch, but i'm looking for a cheap (sub $100, ideally sub $50-60) analog watch as a more "dressier" watch. I've been looking at the timex weekender and the SNK803. any other opinions /g/?

>>52673999
Those aren't dressy watches.
Do you care about quartz vs mechanical?

>>52674015
never said it was dressy m8.

to answer your question: either/or. just looking at the options in the price range

>>52673052
I have one. I really like it

but as for snobby /g/ watch thread opinions, no clue

>>52672967
Atmos is the brand name of a mechanical torsion pendulum clock manufactured by Jaeger-LeCoultre in Switzerland which does not need to be wound manually. It gets the energy it needs to run from temperature and atmospheric pressure changes in the environment, and can run for years without human intervention.

Oh wow. That's interesting. What's the accuracy on that?

>>52673999
Those are casual watches and the SNK is more of a field watch.

Get some dress~esqe looking Seiko like the SNKL45 or similar watches.

You most should operate about about +-1 second per day or better from what I've gathered. Basically accurate enough where if you set the time while correcting for daylight savings you shouldn't need to do it outside of that.

Keep in mind it only oscillates twice a Minute. So most of your second-to-second inaccuracy is because you're waiting for the next tick

It's an "Orga Chronographie", 17 Rubis Incabloc, Ebauche Suisse

The wristband is a more recent Elegantia Fixo-Flex.

That's operationally the same as the torsion pendulum in the Atmos as far as I know. You could probably shape it many different ways

Previous message OP here.

On the back is written "Stainless Steel Back Antimagnetic". Over it is carved the last name of my great-grandfather (probably done with acid during world war two for identification if he got killed by the nazis - he was a French resistant).

So that wont help. It's a manual wind watch though (I honestly don't know much about watch, I just saw the thread pop on the front page and wanted to ask about that watch).

>>52675450
Right, but do they still make any new ones? (other than ones like the atmos that probably costs a billion bucks) From searching online all I can see are vintage clocks. I found some newer bulova clocks that are in that style but aren't really mechanical, just quartz and using a motor to drive the fake pendulum.

Might be a Venus movement if it's more then 45 years old. My guess would be a Venus 183 (Or 175 with date), or maybe an older 186. And unless you pop away the caseback we wouldn't know shit.

Though something bothers me about it, like the story has a piece of BS in it somewhere. I don't think it's anywhere more then 75 years old.

Alright, if you don't know about watches then maybe you shouldn't open it. But if you ever do you should find the movements manufacturer and caliber stamped in under the balance wheel. Like in pic, there's the ETA logo and 2892A2 for caliber.

The Atmos ranges in price pretty significantly, while some are well over 20k because they are special edition of have more complications, others are around only 5k.

But to answer your question I'm not sure if anyone is making a clock like that still.

>>52675674
Opening it an taking a pic of the movement won't harm it too much unless you sneeze into it.

Plus i doubt it's in running order anyhow. Pop it open, take a pic and we could at least tell you what it's worth.

Also i'm rather positive that's a Venus movement, and the earlier twin register Venus chronos started appearing on the market in 1933.

Crown and Buckle premium natos. I cut off the extra fabric flap to make them like a zulu style.

>>52676002
they're generally sold by the same places and at the end of the day, they're practically different versions of the same strap. and it is probably safe to assume that whoever came up with zulu straps did so based on natos

nato: more lightweight, smaller buckles, originated as a military strap

zulu: a fatter, more rugged version of nato originally made for military divers I believe

>>52675953

I bought some straps from cheapestnatostraps and they were kind of shit, crown and buckle feels nicer and looks better. I guess I could've bought a 3-ring instead but these are more common so it's easier to just buy one and cut it how I want it especially since I already had the straps anyway.

>>52676120
Okay, I once cut off the extra flap on a nato and couldn't stand it really. The 2 rings just feel out of place, much better to buy one that comes like that.

>>52677217
You can get a cheap but useful one for under 20 dollars. I have one. Buy a loupe while you're at it.

>>52677217
I have this exact kit, it's kinda shitty but it works okay if you superglue the parts together after they come apart

I'd recommend looking for a $50+ one if you want quality, all of the ones on amazon have been trash. You could also buy individual pieces as you need them, as those tend to be higher-quality as well

you don't really NEED one but it does help when something goes wrong or you need to swap out some straps

>>52677273
At most it'll he used for switching straps and taking off some links in a bracelet along with switching out bezels or changing the back display. I may consider changing a case on a Vostok but for now i have no plans to do so. I'm guess thing this kit should be able to do all those things to a decent quality?

for that you do need a caseback opener (its a screwed-in type)

so in a way a whole toolset is sort of overkill (you could just buy a caseback opener and a spring bar tool but hey, why not? just see that the set does include those tools, which I would assume every kit does

what do people think of the Alpinist? It looks fairly unique, though I think I would never use the compass.

>>52678017
It looks amazing, especially on leather.

>>52678017
It's very pretty. I'd get one if I didn't have so many watches I'd rather have over it.

>>52677929
I see what you're getting at anon. I'll do some research and find how much them two tools are worth together (ones that are in good quality) and i may also pickup a knife that comes with the kit just so i worry less about scratching the case or bezel with the serrations on a normal knife. I'll just compare quality to buying some cheap shit with other provided supplies.

Also do you think i should get a case holder ? Or is it an unessasery item for what I'll be doing?

Good night anon!

On topic, does anybody else here wear their watch while sleeping? I have a rubber strap for my PAM homage and the ticking is very loud and soothing so its essy to fall asleep with it srs. Wish it came with an alarm function though, but few mechanicals do...

Usually. Not as a rule, but most nights I just forget to take it off, really. If I decide to take a shower in the evening rather than the morning, I don't like, put it back on my wrist before heading to bed.

>>52678336
Yes. I always wake up an hour before my alarm goes off and I check my watch to make sure of the time and then I doze off to sleep again. Repeat every 15 minutes until I finally have to wake up.

does that actually have a power reserve of 7 days?

I have one and it sucks. Would recommend you buy tools separately. Get them from a good swiss brand like bergeon.

You could wear both, and when the battery dies after 2 hours you can switch to the other one.

Because I like variety.
>>52680189
This has been off a charge since 8:30a.m. It's now 8:00p.m. and the battery is still good to go. Took a few phone calls on it and played around with it a little on my down time but todays use was pretty light compared to most days. I have no problem getting a full day out of it and the lowest I've seen the battery get with heavy usage in a 12 hour period is 27%

visibility is great in all scenarios but I can only speak for the Ion-X glass on the sport model. I feel as if the sapphire crystal would cause quite a bit of dimming which could be a problem in direct sunlight.

I've thought about the pebble time steel but I'm really drawn to the more traditional form factor of the moto 360.

I'm surprised that Apple put legit sapphire crystals on those watches.

>>52680347
why? they don't usually exactly skimp on case materials or anything that affects the look and feel of their products, that is how they sell, by giving a feeling of "luxury" (unless you want to remember those old-ass plastic macbooks and such)

(I'm no fanboy but I'm also no anti-fanboy)

>>52680396
I mean, hell, the iPhone home button is nowadays made of sapphire

>>52680396
>>52680414
This. I've become a macfag over the years but I wouldn't call myself a fanboy by any means. I used both windows and mac and I've had android and iOS devices too. They all have their pros and cons and I just tend to prefer apple products. It all boils down to personal preference.

all of that being said, apple does tend to use extremely high quality materials in their products and the fit and finish of all of their products is second to none. Design ,materials, and physical construction is something they rarely skimp on.

Tudor Oysterdate, good luck finding one on ebay that isn't a retarded price though just because the caseback has that infamous crown logo. Rolex collectors ruin everything, even Tudor.

There's a lot of datejusts though. How about a 15200, or 16220 (the engine turned bezel adds visual interest, but isn't as blingy as the fluted bezel.)

I already posted this in /sqt/ but I might as well ask the watch snobs of /g/ too.

Is there anything inherently bad about buying a used watch?
I'm not buying it for collectors purposes, but to wear as something nicer than the Suunto Ambit and the Bulova "hack" watch I have now.

I can get the same ~$200 watch for less than $100 if I buy pre-owned.

And since I've been told that anything that isn't stainless/silver will chip away and looks shoddy after wearing it for a while.

>>52681616
people can get crafty with hiding imperfections, but other than that and the possibility of a broken watch, there's no real reason not to buy used

>>52681421
>>52681454
Man I wish they would make a smaller version of these. I dig the look.

>>52681629
Is the risk of receiving a knock-off something to be worried about?

>>52681616
>And since I've been told that anything that isn't stainless/silver will chip away and looks shoddy after wearing it for a while.
Yes, cheap PVD will inevitably wear and look shit. Apparently the coating damasko uses is durable enough, but then those aren't $100 watches.

>>52681654
If you're buying something above 500 dollars, yes

otherwise you can always get it taken to a watchmaker if you're skeptical and then rescind payment

there's a reason all rolex watches come with a certificate and a number

>>52681650
Unless you have skellybones wrists (aka under 6.5") it would probably work on you. More important is how wide your wrists are, so you avoid lug overhang.

>>52681677
Unfortunately I don't make enough money to invest in a time piece as much as I am buying a watch to wear.

It's a shame that I have an eye for two-tone watches without the funds to buy something that will last.

>>52681682
Fair enough. The Seiko I have in mind is probably safe from forgeries then.

But anon that's a day-date. It's almost the same thing but with an uglier bracelet and a day display.

>>52681472
I like the engine turned bezel less than the fluted one, actually. The 15200 is definitely a nice one though, but that one is basically almost exactly like the Oysterdate and it's pretty hard to justify the price difference other than "muh in-house" and the chronometer certification. But I guess when you get into that argument it's pretty hard to justify any watch at all.

>>52681835
