Literally a fake Nomos with a different name printed on the dial to appeal to the WUS crowd of people who want a fake Nomos but were told that FAKE WATCHES ARE FOR FAKE PEOPLE.

I'm pretty tired of this whole "Bauhaus" thin bezel big empty face with seconds subdial and arabic numerals meme, I just wish Nomos would use that beautiful blue dial color on a watch that isn't ugly. Also Nomos has almost doubled their prices on everything in just a few years ever since Reddit decided that Bauhaus design is the pinnacle of watchmaking.

I recognize that "leather" strap. It's plastic. The wrinkles are literally molded in. Chinese sellers use it on their super cheap knockoff watches. You might want to consider getting a strap separately and switching them yourself.

It depends who you're trying to impress. To the average joe an invicta will probably look quite impressive, but they're also the type of person to not really care about watches in general. If you want to impress the real watch guys, then keep away from it.

There are much better watches out there for Invicta money, and they're mainly better because they aren't pretending to be something they're not. Invicta is a blatant Rolex knock off, but if all you want is a big bulky divers watch then I suppose you may as well.

No I meant that the Rodina is literally a rebadged fake. You can buy the exact same watch with Nomos printed on the dial instead of Rodina. They used to have them on pure-time with the same Seagull movement and everything, but the website got taken down so I guess I can't prove it.

The design is kinda neat, I think, a conceptual mix between Martin Braun and Chronoswiss.
However, you should very sure you want to pay that amount of money for a re-finished ETA 2824-2.

Also, given the fact that the watch is 40mm the lubs wll clearly protude to a length of around 46 to 50 mm, so you should have that in mind.

If you don´t have a problem with the previous statements, go ahead and enjoy it, and please do share pic of your watch here.

That's my gym watch. Big soft pushers are great for when your hands are shaky or sweaty. I have worn it in the sauna and hot tub several times a week for six years now and it hasn't leaked. Still on the first battery though. We'll see what happens once I have to change it.

That's right my friend, I'm. Thank you for the welcoming.

There is a complication in high horlogery called "seconde morte" in wich the seconds hand jumps from one second index to the next thus, to untrained eyes, looks like a regular quartz hand, although it was created to improve timekeeping. I actually want to get one of those from F.P. Journe. and the thing is, if you know why your watch is special, the lack of sweeping hand will never bother you.

>>10607070
German style bridges are quite common in high horlogery, my Lange and Glashütte Original use them, as well as several other and independents. Also, my movement is heavenly modified and finished, with waaay better anglage, perlage, côtes de Genève, and both escapement bridge and balance cock entirely made of gold. And you can observe all of this, like this anon >>10607048 pointed out.

look for smaller diameters in watches. There are gorgeous 32-38 mm watches in the vintage market and if someone asks you why your watch is small you can tell them some bs about how it is antique and blablabla.
Plus it'll be cheaper and won't look bad on you.

has a point I think, depends on the watch. On some watches I feel like it dresses them down just enough to make them compliment a casual outfit really well, on others it looks way out of place.

thoughts? almost pulled the trigger on that one.
I like white dials now for some reason. Boccia is a Tutima daughter brand btw.

just copped mine, but with ceramic bezel instead of aluminium like on the pic - it has almost mirror finish and blends better with the glass

Maurice Lacroix is pretty trash.

Hamilton has some decent pieces under 500

Which watch?

left

half eaten numerals everywhere on both watches
>>
>>10618450
Didn't realise that was an issue? On most even high end luxury chronographs you get this.

Neither because I can not stand partially eaten numbers. If I were going to buy a Longines chronograph it would be a Heritage Diver Chronograph. I messed with one at an AD and it's a pretty cool watch.
>>
I just bought this watch(not this one exactly but the same model and color scheme). Thoughts?

swatch is a joke

Can you explain? I'm a pleb when it comes to watches.

They're $10 watches priced at $70 a piece; by making shit tons of designs, they can cater to almost anyone and get away with it

tldr childrens watch
>>
anyone heard of lord timepieces? cool designs and cheap but look like cheap chinese knockoffs and the reviews all seem fake
>>
What's a watch with
>Analog face
>White face with black hands and red second hand
>No brand logo on the face
>Black or brown leather band
?
>>
>>10619372
swatch would be cool if only the plastic models wouldn't tick so loudly. trust me, I know. I own one of these. it's a shame too because the movement is pretty good and the silicone strap comfy as fuck.

This.
Also it's easy to see how cheap that pos actually is. The case is some standard, uninspired shit. There was no designing at all. Whoever buys this is dumb and deserves to get robbed.

>>10618184
indeed anon, i didn't like mine. I'll check hamilton tho.

It's not really an issue it's more personal preference.

I just kind feel like designers are getting paid all that money to design a watch and then hey think fuck it and just half arse it.

like did the date window really need to eat the 6. surely it could have been moved up with the "automatic"

it just feels like lazy design
