I'm not ignoring you.

Also, if you thought I was ignoring you -- and now you're posting about me, then ignoring may also be a viable strategy to get lots of triptention as well.

Do you get a boner when you stay up 24/7 just to start a new thread

Also do you go into full autism rage mode and your tard-wrangler has to pin you down on a mattress when someone starts a thread before you

Eh, it's not a design I like, but it's not a bad price if you do.

Keep in mind they have it on a bracelet for a dollar cheaper. You can always switch to an aftermarket strap whenever you desire, aftermarket bracelets are more of a capshoot if they're available, especially for non-iconic models.

The Raketa 2609.HA might be a luxury movement by commie standards, but it was a fucking pain to work on with how cramped it is, plus the design for the escape wheel shock springs are retarded.

I should try to fix up one my fleamarket Raketas too, out of the many I gutted for the best parts for my inheritance watch. But don't bother removing the shock springs for the escape wheel, you'll never be able to put them back (assuming yours also has the 2609.HA movement).

So anyway the strap came with a 16mm steel buckle and I want to replace it with a gold-plated one to match the case.

Would a butterfly clasp like pic be too chunky on a vintage watch like this? Case is only about 33mm.

I really want to get an accutron, but the new ones are 2big, and I can't find any good looking old ones on eBay besides the spaceview, and even then they're quite a bit more expensive than the other accutrons

>>55505116
Why would you even consider a new Accutron, they're not even tuning-fork anymore.

>>55505116

I bought this one on eBay. Just got it on Friday. It's actually smaller than I expected, which isn't a big deal. I actually found myself checking it for the date while I was at work yesterday, so it's kind of frustrating that I passed up the one with the date window for this one. Ah well.

>>55505131
I thought they had the tuning fork?

>>55505157
Bulova stopped producing tuning fork movements in 1977. Today both Bulova and Accutron are in name only, the company is owned by Citizen.

TL;DR: American watchmaking is long dead. Anything that you might think is American, actually isn't.

No, the new ones are high frequency quartz which still gives you a pretty smooth sweeping seconds hand though.

Looks nice but not seeing any under a few hundred dollars

>>55504597
Oh i managed to destroy my fare share of Raketas.

Though this one needs the dial to get cleaned and also adjusted.

Buying vintage watches online is a typical example how market economy works: you pay more for the better ones, even if they're only better by aesthetics. Better looks = higher demand.

I used to hate this one but now I kind of like the textured white dial.

I'd get it without the date though if I got any of these, I can't stand any date window that was an afterthought to the design. I'm glad this maker has the decency to make an option without the shitty aperture.

I've never understood this need to shoehorn a date window just because the movement you are using has a datewheel. it is rampant in microbrands.

OK, so what watch do you suggests for this suit?


Also: why on Earth provide a watch with compass bearing ring like this >>55498950 when it even lacks a GMT hand??

>>55506938
Why would you need a GMT hand to use a compass ring?

>>55506955
northern hemisphere: if you have a gmt hand set to gmt time, you can point the hour hand at the sun and the gmt hand will point north.

southern hemisphere: gmt hand will point south

>>55507022
you can find north without a gmt hand, but the real question is why would a compass ring be fixed?

Is there any watch related stuff I should take advantage of while I'm there? Or should I ask the the /chink shit/ fags?

What are some good brands for knock-off watches I can buy for cheap while on vacation in Hong Ko

>>55507424

Shenzhen would be better for knock off watches, but you need a Chinese visa to get there

>>55507409

>>youtube.com/watch?v=yB-6v_CDXfc

Case in point

>>55506955
The reason is indeed as explained in >>55507022 though I would point the GMT at the sun and 12 o'clock would then be south. This assumes that the sun is south at 12 o'clock so you have to remember not to mess up with daylight saving.

For astrolabe type watches like the Ulysse Nardin there is also a lunar hand yo can use the same way which comes in handy at night with (near) full moon.

The only reason I didn't buy it is because part of the allure of the original design / movement is general reliability, and having that extra moonphase module could detract from that

hard to go wrong with either rolex or omega.
I used to wear an Rolex Explorer (36mm), but it was a bit too small for my wrist. I sold it and bought an Omega PO liquidmetal, which I love.

As for the grand seiko, they are absolutely superb watches. they may not have the prestige with normies as the swiss brands, but the quality, technology and history is wonderful. Don't discount them so quickly unless you just want to show off.

What do you guys think of the 9F quartz Grand Seiko?
I'm interested in it for the luxury, hand made build quality and finishing; but I don't want to get jewed with servicing and what not. I especially don't like leaving my expensive things in the hands of other people for extended periods of time.
Is it worth the ~2k for a new one?

>>55511496
I think if you're going to spend a sizeable chunk of money on a watch it should be mechanical but that's just me mang. Service on a quartz movement isn't required frequently enough for it to be a huge concern, every 10 years or so should be fine and I wouldn't expect it to be hard to find someone to do it.

>>55511496
If you're going to buy an expensive watch you're going to leave it in the hands of other people to fix it.

>>55511555
The 9F movements have a service life of 50 years.
I just dislike having to pay out the ass for servicing. The only other watch I'm interested in is the Explorer I, and that's vastly more expensive anyway.
>>55511572
Well in this case the battery can be easily replaced by me.

>>55511599
>2k quartz movement
>exposed coil
Fuck this gay shit. At least the battery is on the other side of the movement.

>>55511659
Why would you shroud the coil? You can run the risk of ruining the stepper motors.
I don't think there's a single quartz movement without an exposed coil

>>55511599
The 9F has a theoretical oil life of 50 years. But that's not what the intended service interval is.

Certainly if you wanted to minimize how often you send your watch for service the 9F would be the prime candidate.

Their site themselves.

Anywhere else is going to add a whole heap of markup on the highstreet.

>>55526106
wait for a deal on a condition 0 or 1 example on chrono24, offline you'll have to find a decent jewelry store or watch shop in a city. jewelry stores in smaller towns don't always sell used pieces (they will accept trades and sell them online), and their new inventory will be limited and full price.

best deals for new rolex will probably be found far away, in Bangkok, HongKong, Japan, Mexico. many of the places I would never buy a watch from without being able to inspect internals

I did see a new Tudor Pelagos in old San Juan, PR for like 2500, which is pretty good for new.

>>55526276
stores markup from THEIR price, which is about 50% off, sometimes more, a high volume store will be 30% cheaper than direct from rolex unless you buy distributer quantities

Metric is also superior for roads. I didn't realize how messy measurement in miles was until I moved to Canada. Decimals of kilometres looks way better on highway exits and mile markers than "1/2 a mile, 3/4 mile, 1 3/4 miles, 2 1/2 miles" and so forth.

My only encounter with Rolex on the highstreet has been in a Rambrants in the town I work in.

In the window they have an 8 year old Submariner, with no service history, and scratches all across the glass. They're selling this for £5800. Give or take £60-ish, probably give.

Rolex have the price of a brand new Submariner listed at £6000 on their site.

>What should I look for that will have a similar aesthetic? I really like the look of it (wear aside).

Like I said, I was referring to high volume stores in cities. Stores that actually intend to sell watches in any significant quantities will make deals compared to full retail price.

It's not hard to find shitty stores with shitty prices for any product

It does virtually nothing. The only thing it does is save you from setting your watch a couple times a year.

if you want ali watches then get a Nomos

No thanks.

>>55533961
>only watch autists will notice your Nomos ticks

don't get me wrong if you are going to get a fake, get the 20$ nomos, but if you want a real MVMT don't pay more than 5$
