My collection consists of a Mickey Mouse quartz watch from Aliexpress, 3 Vostok Komandirskie-Kadets, a dope Casio and a few thrifted vintage German made quartz and mechanicals that don't keep proper time. I have no craving for expensive watches but I appreciate how they look and how they're made. I bought myself a nice piece of land next to the sea that I will build a house on once I've saved enough. The cost of the land could have gotten me a few lovely Rolexes and maybe one day I will get those Rolexes after I'm sitting in my house.

No I just wanted to illustrate what a wristlet is.
He said "on my wristlet", that would refer to the strap.
When used for a small wrist you have to use it to describe the person "I am a wristlet"

Same.

I made some long-term financial gains lately, and had two choices:

1) stay in my current shitty house and be able to easily afford more stuff, like watches

2) sell my current place and move into a better house

I went with option 2) and sold my current house at a pretty significant profit, and bought an expensive house at a bargain price.

And on my wrist is still my 5-y-o green alpinist.

I like Russian watches, but I can't stand the fact that they attract all kind of commies who worship the USSR and call each other comrades. Could I start a forum on WUS for WWII German watches and write 'Sieg Heil' at the end of my posts? Don't think so

What does /wt/ think of these straps?

I mistakenly bought the one on the right because I thought it was white and orange, and didn't read the description.

I like the look of the darker one better, but it's a zulu and definitely bulkier feeling. The blue/orange one is a nato and the nylon is more comfortable, but i'm not a huge fan of the light blue.
May just order another in a different color

>>60425378
They both look ugly. Just get a dark grey or black one, if you must have a colour then go for navy blue.

>>60425378

have a 17-18cm+- (6.5"+) wrist size. Really like the watch, became my daily few month ago. It's a classic, U can't go wrong with it

Replaced the original metal strap with a Nato navy blue because the metal one was really too heavy and I don't really like the feeling of it but that's up to you.

>>60426158
My wrist size is identical so that's good to hear. I've been looking at SKX and SRP as alternatives. But I the Orient has a better movement than the 7s26 and the turtles are too big for my wrist I think.
As far as the strap I'd love to try out rubber, but all the ones I saw were on metal. Don't you think the Nato makes the watch sit a bit too high? Maybe I'll search for some aftermarket rubber alternatives

It gets bumped off-center and makes my autism flare. The dial is also the same size as the SNK809s if the bezel wasn't there so the watch could have been much thinner, and not had the awkward crown at 4 o'clock.

Still my favorite watch, and I've not seen another watch at any price point I like better. Just a pet peeve of mine.

Other anon here, I have a Ray and a 6.75" wrist. I like the bracelet. Tried it on a nato and didn't like it at all, it made it too thick, and the watch is already big for my tastes. I have it on a good rubber for the summer and it's my favourite strap out of everything I've tried.

>>60426207
I have had the old blue mako for the past 7 years. Good watch. The bracelet's kinda shitty though because of the end links which are hollowed out pieces of shit that will be rattling in no time. Dunno if that was fixed in the newer version. Use it on a NATO, the rubber or an aftermarket metal and you'll be happier.

Also, maybe year or two into ownership the bezel started to stick. It's totally frozen now. It's just badly designed anyway and it was not made for ease of purchase as it's so thin with nothing substantial to grab on to. No really a lose for me as I never needed it.

Haven't worn it properly for a while because I've been meaning to deal with the shitty rattly endlinks and because the crystal is all scratched up. I think the latest one has sapphire and that would be awesome.

Lume isn't the best compared to an equivalent Seiko river but whatever. It's cheap and cheerful.

It's worthy of a fucking garbage can.

To the guy who I was (You)'info with back and forth yesterday re: submariner 14060M/114060, I think I'm going to wait for the 114060M (or whatever it may be called). They're gonna HAVE TO release a "throwback" version of the sub with the classic bezel (sure, it will probably be ceramic, but at which point, I won't mind) and the non-maxi everything. You'd get all the benefits, superior build in every way + new bracelet, with the old look

Who knows when such a piece will be released, but I know they will. They'll have to, especially when you consider the state of the Swiss luxury watch market, despite Rolex still doing very wel. What are your thoughts on this possibility?

>>60427343

Yes it does, but they are not in the driveline where they would be subject to excessive wear. Even 40+ years after the majority of the vintage Lemania 5100 chronographs were made, I've heard very few reports of any the nylon parts failing. Overall the movement is phenomenally reliable.

Are you married with the idea of having a bracelet? "faux" gold worns off quite fast. If you want gold tones, I would suggest a strap watch better, like pic related.

>>60427615
I had never wanted to tell you this before, and it really pains to do so, but the KS Special doesn't suit you well. I do this in your best interest, my friend.

How is it that Russia is such a great country with so many achievements and yet so much of it is a shithole? In the USA the only places that are shitholes are extremely poor areas or nigger-infested cities, everywhere else is basically paradise. But it seems like the average Russian 'suburb' is really just an old commie block with a bunch of babushkas in flip-flops and squatting chavs getting drunk and causing mayhem...

Hmm, your picture made me think. As I see you tighten the bracelet even if it deforms the pillow. So far I've just been leaving my bracelet watches loose in the box, because the chinkshit watch pillows don't return to their original shape after pressing.

You can get them substantially reduced (and in an impeccable condition) in Yahoo Auctions Japan. If you live in the US, give WatchRecon a try.

>>60427910
Oh shit, nice, thanks. Exactly what I asked for. Any other good recommendations I might go with until I can plunk down $2.5k?

>>60427922
yup!

I have noticed on a lot of older watches there is a yellowing around the crystals' border. Is there a way to clean that? It kind of almost looks like old glue that needs to be replaced.

What to do with a vintage Seiko which has a very scratched up mineral glass? It's not round nor square so one would think replacing it could be a mess?

>>60427943
I'm sure there are other GS quartz's that are <=37mm, just take a look around. Otherwise I don't know off hand anything else that would meet those requirements.

>>60427979

Polish the shit out of it with that scratch remover shit for crystals and if that doesn't work then find the corresponding crystal you need and then see if it is for sale somewhere in Japan online.

Golly jee willikers I just wish someone were producing a similar watch for $500 or less. I'm younger and don't need to wear this $2.5k watch that looks like it belongs to a guy in his 50's who's coming down from the peak of his career. Not knocking it, I just want something cheap(er) and simpler. Fudge.

>>60427804
>Ha, I'm sure you are being purely altruistic in mentioning the KS Special not suiting me!
Direct from my hones heart.

And yes, that brown dial is very appealing, a right movement in my book. Affordable Seiko at its best.

Hey, so what do you think of Damasko's in-house A35 movement? Ever since I found out about it I've been marvelling at Damasko making an all silicon, free.sprumg, gyromax 28,800bph balance as their first escapement.

Also, if you are considering a new GS it better be one of these or a high-beat.

>>60428937
They are an eye catcher for sure, and the finishing is not bad either, specially the double balance cock. If you like the unique aesthetic why not? Just make sure to not expose it that often to intense sunny days, as with any skeleton and open dial, ti will dry the lubricants a bit faster.

A suggestion? GO has a lot of AD's in tax-free zone at airports. If you make your reaserch and pact the price before arriving to a terminal, you might ge a juicy discount to help you fund some nice vacation.

To be honest, I'm not familiar enough with Damasko, the brand doesn't appeal to me that much, I find their aesthetic a bit soft. Sorry m8.

I'm not interested in arguing with you. Your opinion is so self-evidently terrible that it speaks for itself.

I should probably service this piece of crap soon.

Coincidentally one came in for a crystal replacement a while ago, only that one had a white dial in Russian.

Applied numerals don't mean they can't do it with round numbers. See pre-2016 (ie pre-ruined) Planet Ocean.

Currently in for servicing as I managed to absolutely fucking annihilate the crystal when I went ass over tit last year. Was running to my local Chinese takeout joint on the way back from the pub, and because I was fucked out of my skull, I sort of forgot how legs work.

Worst bit? Wasn't even fucking open when I got there, so I never even got my succulent Chinese meal. Before and after pic.

Watch year; c.1960 for anyone who gives a shit.

>>60430155
The case finishing is amazing for it's price. That and the chamfered crystal, the details in the dial, etc. The 9015 in it has been decently accurate (gains maybe 3s/day give or take).

With Chinese shitters, the only way to know if they're decent generally is to buy one and find. I'm waiting on one myself right now.

Any watch recommendation for a wristlet like me ? I kinda like seeing gears, also I find deep blue very nice on watches.
I'd probably go for something very cheap as I'm not earning a buck atm (broken leg preventing me to work)
Thanks based guys

>>60438874

Cheap exposed guts? Sea-Gull.

I want a sensible digital with minimalist design

>>60439020
Vintage LED watches might be up your ally.

i need a cheapo automatic stainless steel watch for formalwear/maybe everyday use

any recs?? preferably not divers

>>60439086
How cheap?

>>60439110
less than $200 if possible
or if more than that, then it better be a good investment that will last a lot

>>60439128
I'd recommend looking into Seiko, Citizen, and Sea-Gull.

>>60439128
Oh, and Orient.

>>60439148
>>60439155

Dat smooth sweep. Would be neat to see if the individual steps of a tuning fork seconds hand could be made out if slowed down enough.

Nice watch but damn nigga you must take cocks up the ass with those bracelets

I haven't managed to find another one in condition as good as mine with a linen dial, so here's this:

https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p554875391

Dial looks like it's been discolored, but the case seems to be in good condition.

>>60442118
Yea I saw that one as well, personally I think it makes the dial even sexier. That being said I have no idea how to bid in a fucking japanese website.

>>60442137
On a related note, the 15mm buckle on that LM looks the same as mine. In which case it's just likely just plated aluminum or some other junk metal. Definitely not solid stainless steel like the 16mm buckles you can get from seiya. It's even a brighter shade than the stainless buckle.

>>60441973
Just wait till I pack my bags and I'll be there in about 36 hours give or take

>>60442118
damn, next time I'm going to Japan I'll probably take back as much watches as I can without paying duty and then resell them

>>60442253
I will fly out to you. Just give me a burner phone number so we can get in contact. We can meet up at a rest area or something. Let me know I have this nice SKX here all for free.
