It's really comfortable for hot climates. As you sweat your watch can move to new places on your arm, allowing the sweat to evaporate and keep your wrist dry. Keeping your watch in one spot will get annoying.

Also, your wrist expands and contracts during the day, so if you always want it decently tight that means it may get uncomfortable when your wrist is at its biggest. If you allow it to be more comfortable when your wrist is at its biggest it will end up being loose when your wrist is at its smallest.

Well you may be more used to it I guess. When I was in India I wish I would have had a loose bracelet. Place was like a sauna to me and all I brought was a watch on nato. When I fly to LA or something I'm always going to have a loose bracelet.

When my wrist is at its smallest I'm able to push on the watch to slide it to the inside of my wrist, but when its at its biggest it wont move on it's own even a little, not even up and down my arm, and no way I could turn it to the inside.

The idea with being dressy is being understated and clean. What's more understated, a nice black or brown leather strap kind of like your belt and shoes -- or a bracelet, often with multiple facets and polished and brushed surfaces that sparkles and shines?

>>59995200
What seems to effect wrist size the most for me is activity level. If I were out running or working out, shit can get tight real fast.

May have to do with the fact that your forearms are one of the main places your body dumps heat in exercise afaik.

Destroying watches by pawning the gold and silver is an atrocity and shouldn't be legal.

Wrong.

They guarantee parts availability for 10 years after the movement type is discontinued, not after it is made. Furthermore, spare parts are not commonly used in a regular service for competently designed movements and thus the spare parts supply typically lasts for a few decades past the guaranteed period.

Vintage Grand Seikos, like any other vintage watch, require a solid understanding of the particular model being sought and it's repairability before purchase. Do not blame vintage Grand Seiko for your failure to do your own due diligence.

Here are the simple facts: Nomos are literally the first new company to develop the capacity to design and manufacture mechanical movements including escapements on a series production basis since the 1960s. They join Raketa, Vostok, Orient, Citizen, Seiko, ETA and Rolex as the only non haute horlogerie companies capable of this.

Developing this capability took a several year and ~12 million Euro investment in escapements and a further ~2 million Euro investment in designing the ultra-thin DUW 3001 calibre. These are enormous investments from a company with an annual sales volume of 10,000 - 20,000 units, and as a result must necessarily be reflected in increased unit prices.

In an affordable luxury watch market heavily dominated by Chinese-cased ETA-powered marketing-driven shitters, any watchmaker that makes the investments required to become a manufacture and actually increase the technical diversity of series produced mechanical movements should be applauded no matter whether you like the aesthetics of their product line. To the extent that Nomos succeeds by following this path, it may serve to encourage more investment in the technical aspects of watchmaking by other companies rather than just investing in more value engineering (i.e. cost-cutting) and more advertising.

Just in the last 10 years we have gone from a $1,000-$4,000 market where every single watch was powered by an ETA movement to one where you can now choose between ETA, Tudor, Nomos, and Seiko (8rXXs, 8LXXs). How can this development be regarded as bad for people interested in horology, regardless of whether you would personally buy any of those watches yourself? If only Miyota and Seiko would add micro-adjuster models to their ebauche offerings and Tudor would begin to use their in-house movement in more models, we could return to an era of real competition in movements in production watches not seen since the glory days of the 1970s.
>>
>>59998012
Still shit for the price.
>>
>>59998012
I applaud their philosophy on movements, but I think they're retarded for only making countless variations of bauhaus.

If you've seen one bauhaus watch, you've seen them all.
And bauhaus looks like shit to a lot of people to begin with.
>>
>>59996630
>>59996659
Except that /wt/ is one of the few places that mostly shits on the marketing driven pleb catching brands that take generic ETA movements and shove them into Chinese made cases.

Also that image uses a Rolex and those are 100% made in Switzerland.
>>
>>59996694
Pepsi is for goobers
>>
>>59998024
>>59998031
Look, I don't like their watches aesthetically and would never buy one but as far as value goes they can only be measured against ETA, Rolex/Tudor (in-house only) and Grand Seiko as those are the only other companies offering high-end production watches.

In light of the massive investments Nomos had to make in their movement design and manufacturing relative to their production volumes, their was no way for them to avoid their current pricepoint.

○ SEIKO makes it a policy to typically keep a stock of replacement parts for this watch for 10
years. Replacement parts are those which are essential to maintaining the functional
integrity of the watch. Please keep in mind that if original parts are not available, they may
be replaced with substitutes whose outward appearance may differ from the originals.
○ Depending on conditions of use, accuracy may not be recovered after the watch has been repaired.


If I had just spent $8k on a high-beat watch, this is not what I would have expected. It is always worthwhile reading manuals first when you can.

Again, that is 10 years after they discontinue making the movement, and again, since it is not typically necessary to replace parts at regular services, that stock of parts can be reasonably expected to last 20-30 years rather than the 10 that Seiko guarantee.

Under the current state of movement tech, Grand Seiko has no reason to replace their 9sXX movements any time soon, so there is no reason whatsoever to expect production of those movements to cease within the next ten years. It is therefore reasonable to expect parts availability for a modern 9sXX movement purchased today for approximately 40-50 years.

By way of comparison, why don't you look into the parts availability for most discontinued ETA and Lemania movements, much less pre-Swatch Omega, Tissot, Longines, etc. Movements.

Gee, I wonder why a company that started off literally making cockpit clocks would carry that design language across their entire range?

Shockingly, they actually match Sinn's design language overall, so they don't look out of place. By contrast, the hands on that Steinshit stick out like a sore thumb because they glaringly don't belong on that design.

Of course, since you are too retarded to even tell the Steinshit hands apart from index hands, i won't bother wasting time discussing this with you any further. That Steinshit looks terrible and is bought exclusively by people too ignorant of horology to even realize it looks retarded.

My point is the Steinshit is fuck ugly, the hands look totally retarded on it, and Steinshit buyers are pure cancer.

Sinn uses those hands on its divers because Sinn literally started as a cockpit instrument maker, you inveterate pleb. Sinn makes divers that look like pilots watches overal, and the consistent styling of their divers means the hands actually match.

Meanwhile the flying morons at Steinshit's design department had to ruin what would otherwise have been the best value ETA 2892-A2 powered watch on the market by putting those overly fat hands that totally clash with the rest of the design.

For the watches that are at all popular they use clone movements which are the exact same and they're pretty much identical. Slightly worse finish but that's it.

Yes, but not Rolex. Rolex pressure tests every watch they make, and I trust their QC about 999,999 times more than Steinshit.

Liar. Fakes use garbage half working Chinkshit movements and come with zero QC or warranty.

What's hilarious is that some of these fakes literally cost $1000+.

Like what the fuck is wrong with your head? You can get REAL Air-Kings and shit for like less than $2000. I've also seen vintage Jaeger Lecoultre Memovox watches go for less than $2000.

What strap does /wt/ think would look good on this watch?
>>
>>60002710
Black calfskin without the stupid contrast stitching near the lugs

Or if you're brave a crimson strap

>>60002710
The one it comes with. I don't think the case shape works well with any other kind of strap.

Incorrect, almost all replica Rolexes use clones of the real movement. Worse QC? Yes. Worse finish? Yes. But not $5000 worse by any stretch of the imagination.

Tell that to >>60001653 and >>60001859 since they made the comparison.

>>60003051
But that comparison is fair.

A cheap brand not using ISO doesn't necessarily mean much, since top brands like Rolex also don't use ISO.
>>
>>60002987
BULLSHIT. Those Chinkshit fakes do NOT use a free sprung balance, much less any of the other technologies Rolex uses.
>>
>>60003063
Rolex doesn't have to use ISO testing because everyone trusts their internal testing and QC. Steinshitters, on the other hand, should be taken for pressure testing immediately after you receive one since brand new watches failing is a known issue, Steinshit doesn't internally pressure test, and apparently their QC isn't great if 300m watches are failing pressure tests in the wild frequently enough to be a known issue on forums.

(Multiple QC issues in that thread)

Now if you consider the sales volumes of a micro-brand and how few people ever have their watches pressure tested, the implications are quite damning.

The bracelet is a bit cheap feeling though.

Every maker has issues, even notorious "rugged" watch brands like Sinn have tons of threads with defective watches.

And it seems like every one of the instances you linked were solved by customer service (which is more than you can say for Sinn).

The standard bracelet feels a bit cheap to me, it's a bit rattly. It's better than the jubilee on the SKX but it's not as good as my Strapcode bracelets or the bracelet on my Christopher Ward Trident.

The pin & collar system is fiddly to adjust too.

I would rank it higher than my super oyster, it's lighter because it's narrower but it still feels high quality. Adjusting any bracelet sucks but that's a one-time thing.

Funny enough it's more comfortable than the SARX bracelet which looks really cool but doesn't really bend to fit your wrist as well.

Wrong.

That's all.

They're not going to engineer a copy of a rolex movement that's costlier for them to make rather than just use the tired old miyota clones they always use. Miyota clones and other chinese movements.
