Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

>>55273137
If you MUST spend the entire sum, or as close as possible to, on a single watch:
As the other anon said, custom Voutilainen / Smith

I purchased mine from the older gentleman who lives next to my grandmother. I was helping him set up his yard sale and saw the watch. Still had the hang tag on the strap and sticker on the case back. Paid less than $100.

I love it.

I have read that it is bad to adjust time by turning minute hand counterclockwise. Now my problem is that my amphibia runs +20secs per day and it has a calendar. Does that mean that everytime i want to adjust time with date to be corect ill need to turn minute hand for all The days in The month?

As a Casio guy the module is kinda weird and crappy compared to a modern casio module but for telling time it's great.
It's been 3 weeks and it's off by about .5 secs from my synced prw 3500.
Currently saving up for an engineer bracelet for mine.
I think this + a nice bracelet is a much better alternative than buying a bruan or ventura digital (if you want a steel cased digital)

Imo I would say go for the pulsar and save a bit for a gw5000. And get a gw5600E + nato adaptors as your rugged watch. Bullbars optional. Maybe a square world time (forgot model # sorry) for a more "dressy" digital.

You can look up the etymology if you want, there's a couple possible origins. A lemon may have at one time primarily have referred to a person, someone stupid that a smarter individual could take advantage of, thereby squeezing/sucking the juice out of him.

I own one, it's poorly made with a cheap quartz movement. As with Denzel Washingtons you may as well get one from aliexpress as the quality will be about the same.

Mission accomplished

Hurp derp what's a good watch for me?

Rain proof but need not be diver grade water proof to over 9000 meters.
Easy to read in direct sunlight and at night without killing your nightvision.
Alarm unnecessary.
Any gauges, hands or displays apart from hours / minutes / seconds are clutter, maybe a date indicator or something.
As sturdy as possible, so it can survive me reking my motorbike.

Budget is around 50 € (Germany), maybe 100 but that's pushing it.
Does such a thing exist?

>>55296273

Go on Amazon and look at quartz Seiko watches and then buy the one you like the looks of most.

Wtf it is, works in negative temps, can be used while wet and muddy. No other G has that u tard

>>55305967

Many do.

The 9300 is better in every way, for example.

Frogmans also have seals on the buttons and are inmune to dirt.

Every single gshock will resist mud and dirt, save for the fisherman and the pinninfarina which are both shit designs.

the 9000 is a shit watch

>>55306022

>>55281953

>>55306046

Better functionality, better design, more comfortable, just as shit resistant.

The 9000 has shit size to number ratio and shit functions.

The cold functioning feature is a meme, I've been in -30º some times with people with shitty no name digital watches that worked fine, and so did my regular g-shocks.

Also any analog g-shock works in extreme cold as well, and some are also G and vibration resistant.

>>55306158

You bought a 9000 and fucked up.

Some basic modules like the 5600, 6600,6900 and gd-350 are miles better

That's why casio backed up with the 9000 releasing a multi band, solar powered watch and the 9300 soon afterwards, because they knew it was crap.

He's the first person to even notice it.

Rubber straps are pretty comfortable but not quite as comfortable as a NATO or Perlon. However rubber doesn't absorb water like nylon so you aren't going to have to wait for it to dry out which also means it isn't going to absorb all your sweat and get funky nasty like a NATO either.

I find a lot of watchmakers are inclined to call unfamiliar things "crap" just because they don't really know how to work on them, and it's easier to blame the watch rather than admit that quartz ETAs have formed the bulk of their client work.

What's the point of having 3 (shitty) divers?

It's decent but might as well get a Sumo instead of those three.

>>55316211
Maybe.

But I'm aiming for a SARX or SARG series next.

>>55316024
Maybe he likes divers? I know I do.
