I have the original box though, it was made by "James Mix Jewelers" as a bespoke agassi

That is a swiss movement and would have been expensive, it would have been like buying a Rolex and having a dial made without Rolex written on it

Mine are the Hamilton and Columbus in this picture. They both run better than 30 spd last I checked them, though I've only regulated them in the dial down position.

>. These things aren't that complicated.

Today they are not that complicated. In 1888 there was no such thing as a practical wristwatch because the technology did not exists to make the mechanisms small and accurate enough. "Running like a Swiss watch" was a euphemism for something extremely complex and expensive. They were the iphones of the day. They didn't think anything of making the case solid gold for a swiss movement because they were so expensive already.

Adjusted for inflation I am sure they were as expensive if not moreso than they are today

>>61198703
iPhones aren't that expensive relative to watches

>>61198612
>I gripe at how expensive watches are. I hate how we almost can't buy non-overpriced pieces today. These things aren't that complicated.

Back then the watches were hard to make and justifiably expensive.

Today Rolex charges $2200 for just a stainless bracelet.

Watches have become nothing more than a status symbol, back in the day you could not buy a cheap accurate quartz, an expensive swiss movement actually was the most accurate thing you could carry with you

>>61198716
>iPhones aren't that expensive relative to watches
That is true, back then if you didn't have a watch you had to go around asking everyone what time it was. there were not digital clocks on every dashboard and microwave and phone in sight. A swiss watch back then would have been totally unobtainable for most people. I guess the equivalent today would be like a luxury car

>>61198062
Yeah, it's sad. Wristwatches are much more usable.

>>61198612
>How reasonable were prices then?
You could get a big steel american made pocketwatch that was not very accurate for a price a working man could afford. Solid gold accurate swiss watches would have been at a whole different level

Yeah as the owner of a nice Waltham pocket watch myself it bothers me that atheists have completely ruined them for any sort of usage. Obviously I wouldn't want to take it every day but even shit like formal dinners or church where pulling out your phone (or even having it with you) is rude, I couldn't look like anything other than a cringey, Steampunk-larping Fedora.

I love pocketwatches in the general since as they're all manual wind and they often have big, well decorated movements, you can really get a close look of all the craftsmanship that went into them and also see how they operate a lot easier compared to more compact wristwatch movements.

The only bright side to atheists ruining pocket watches is that the market prices reflect this and you can even get absolutely stunning Vacheron Constantin and Patek pocketwatches for relatively cheap.

>>61199696

I'm not sure how not believing in god wound up ruining pocket watches for the general public but I can't deny it did.

I don't believe in magic but I don't wear weird shit and talk about it all the time and ruin shit for people, I just don't believe in magic

Looking for a tool watch, /wt/.
A diver with a nice rotating bezel.

I've been looking at three options:

1) Sinn

2) Damasko

3) Tudor Pelagos

Why are Seiko penis quartz watches so highly regarded?

>>61201854
They're high quality jeweled movements designed to be durable and serviceable. Modern quartz movements are typically made to be cheap and disposable, in the penisquartz era quartz was still a hot new technology so Seiko actually put some effort into the movements.

I wouldn't really call them highly regarded though, at least not outside of our shitter enthusiast general. Watch people generally dismiss anything quartz.

How in the fuckity fuck is the black bay more flashy and subby like than the Pelagos

they are basically the same watch

Better water resistance, not as cliche & it has a far better light as it has electro luminescence rather than a shitty single led.

Pic is a comparison between the 2.

>>61202020
The black bay is more flashy than the Pelagos because it has tons of polished surfaces both on the case and the dial, while the Pelagos has exactly 0 polished surfaces anywhere (outside of the crystal).

And the black bay is more subby than the pelagos because the dial and hour marker layout are pretty much identical to the submariner, while the Pelagos has the square markers and chapter ring that partly wraps around the markers.

Also, the problem with Nomos isn't so much that it makes bauhaus watches, but that it ONLY makes bauhaus watches.

>>61202126
Nomos is fine depending on the model. The neomatik movement looks like cool technology and models like the orion is a perfectly good dress watch if thats up your alley.

Id definately call them minimalist but I think the stark contrast between the dial and the small seconds dial ruins the bauhaus aesthetic and instead brings my mind to the japanese flag.
The polished surfaces, hands (especially the red one) and steel bracelet does not help either.

On the one hand there's a lot about the design that I like. And Seiko does have solid pedigree when it comes to dive watches.

But on the other hand it's almost too nice, and I have this nagging feeling that the transocean is trying to seem nicer than it is. I really want to be wrong about this though, so don't hesitate to correct me.

I haven't seen one in person so I really can't help you much with that. I am sort of curious to find out how the ceramic bezel looks in person and how it holds up, I think it's the first time I've seen a Seiko with a ceramic bezel. They have been using ceramics for a while on the Tuna shrouds, though. And by all accounts the diashield coating really works and resists scratches really well. So it's definitely got some higher-end features at least. And nobody has ever faulted Seiko on their fit and finish quality at every price range.

It's also like $1000 for a 6R15 which seems a bit steep. It's arguably about equivalent to an ETA 2824 I guess, but it's a plain 21,600bph movement that you can find in $300 watches.

File: transocean.png (2MB, 1539x903px) Image search: [Google]

2MB, 1539x903px

>>61204640
I tried one on at a local store.
The ceramic bezel is kinda glossy without being outright shiny.

When the watch is on the wrist the bezel hides most of the polished case, so that tones down the flashiness. But then the hands and indices are polished, so it's probably not very "tooley".

The movement is a little pedestrian, but Seiko seem to be upscaling it. And the low beat rate means you can go 10 years without service.

It becomes a bit of a nuisance, but less so than half the time having to twist your wrist 720 degrees because the loose band has let the watch face fall off to the outside of your arm and is not easily readable at a glance.
But unless your watch is huge it isn't an issue, and at this point, years after having to wear a band that didn't fit me, I still prefer wearing my watches upside down.

-sapphire glass with AR coating on the inside
-all ceramic bezel
-diashield scratch protection on the case and bracelet
-43 mm across the bezel (case itself is 45 but it's hidden behind the bezel, which is a very cool effect in its own right)
-13.8mm thick

I love the design, but I wish there was a nato option.

I particularly love the fact that the 3 o'clock hour marker isn't replaced by a date window.

Max hetzel watches are always welcomed here.

In general there are some pre-school longines that are decent but swatch has positioned them in this weird place where they're much more expensive than Tissot but not particularly nicer. I'd have loved if longines had been positioned as swatch's datejust killer, instead of that being blancpain, I guess.

Sinn 356 UTC.

My white whale.

Saw it for sale twice in two years, and I was beaten to the punch both times.

Are there any modern quartz movements with a smooth sweep second hand?

>>61208970
The closest out there are the bulova 262kHz movements. Really the seconds hand steps at 16Hz but it looks pretty smooth.

>>61208991
That's what I was thinking, unfortunately I'm not too fond of Bulovas modern dial designs. Thanks Anon.

>>61208970
Seiko spring drive
Piaget 700p
Bulova precisionist (16hz)

>>61209013
>Piaget 700p
Interesting, I'd not known of these.
Is the spring drive technically considered a quartz movement, or does it fall into the hybrid category?

>>61209029
Spring drive and 700p both use a quartz crystal to regulate the timekeeping. The average modern quartz watch uses a stepper motor to advance the second hand, but not all quartz watches do. For example, spring drive, Piaget 700p, accuquartz, luch 3055, Omega f8192, etc. There's also watches the Seiko 5s21/5s24 that have a stepper motor but add a dampening system.

>>61209088
Neat, I knew about a few of those, but the Luch (very surprised) and Omega models are new to me, thanks.

>>61209029
I'd say a hybrid is a more accurate way of describing the spring drive.

>>61209120
It certainly is a fascinating movement. I hope they continue to evolve it; perhaps some of it might trickle down to models I can consider purchasing.

>>61209120
I have to be honest I've never understood the obsession with calling the spring drive a hybrid movement - the only thing the spring drive has that a traditional mechanical watch has and a traditional quartz watch doesn't is that the energy is provided by a mainspring.

>>61209271
You could also say the only thing different about a spring drive from a mechanical is instead of a pallet fork you have an electromagnetic brake. This is why trying to boil down exactly what the movement is in a few words doesn't work.

you basically have a glorified quartz. frankly I'm surprised you don't know your own movement better than that desu.

>>61209341
There's something in a spring drive that's in a traditional mechanical and not in traditional quartz besides a mainspring as an energy source (and a winding rotor, if you want to be pedantic)? Or am I misunderstand info your point?

>>61209384
Precisely (ie the power reserve unit and tri-synchro regulator)

I honestly wish Seiko would move this down to non-GS watches. It actually doesn't fit the luxury segment. Nobody would buy high-end SD since only Seiko can service it, and probably will have to replace electronic parts entirely. It's not even sure if parts for old SDs will be available decades from now.

>someone recommended me a seiko 5 along the way. i looked at its average reported time loss/gain per month, and noped out. why even bother buying and wearing something like that?

It's automatic. No need to replace the battery. But, then, you can just buy a solar watch or, if you want to dole out, Spring Drive.

But, yes, you recognize there's a market gap that isn't being filled for cheap, decently made quartz that doesn't have shit build quality. These things shouldn't cost anywhere close to a chink smartphone.

The thing is; we are surrounded by electric shit already. And a wristwatch is something you visibly strap to your body for extended periods of time.
It makes a lot of sense for such an object that almost becomes an integral part of your body to be a little more than just another piece of electronics.

Same reason people often wear expensive leather shoes instead of shoes made out of synthetic materials with rubber soles.

Also; time is probably the most important thing there is in life, and this symbolic aspect alone merits something that rises above all the electronic gadgets we already own.

>>61213864
You're a fag

>>61213836
Which it kind of is.

Watches, while they are impressive pieces of engineering, are valued more as fashion accessories than for their technological merits; even the ones that are made for the kind of person to jack off to technical specifications. Outside of some pretty specific fields where there's an actual need to need only move your arm a little and look at your wrist, the need for something to tell you the time is as well or better served by something else. A watch is otherwise a piece of jewellery, albeit one with slightly more practical use than most others.

As for that gun? Not much real use if you have need of a firearm in this day and age. A nice decorative piece to put above the fireplace, or interesting curio if you're into the history of firearms. But in practical terms, if you need to shoot, far less useful than even a bolt-action rifle, never mind a modern semi-automatic.

No, it isn't.

As with mechanical watches, even the ornamentation on old guns does serve a practical purpose: to show the skill of the creator.
If the ornamentation and style of the gun / watch is solid, you could be fairly certain that the thing would shoot / keep good time.

>Watches, while they are impressive pieces of engineering, are valued more as fashion accessories than for their technological merits
"Fashion" implies fleeting trends, while the most prized watch designs either are pre-quartz icons themselves, or based on them.

>A nice decorative piece (...) But in practical terms, if you need to shoot, far less useful than even a bolt-action rifle, never mind a modern semi-automatic.
In practical terms, very few people who shoot actually "need" to shoot.

>>61214260
The longines 6512 is actually from the 70s, yes.

>>61214348
>As with mechanical watches, even the ornamentation on old guns does serve a practical purpose: to show the skill of the creator.
>If the ornamentation and style of the gun / watch is solid, you could be fairly certain that the thing would shoot / keep good time.
Which is all well and good, but whether the watch is well-made or not is besides the point; a mobile phone will keep better time than any watch, wearing a watch anyway is 99% of the time going to be for its decorative value.
As for the gun, being a well-made breech-loading flintlock is all well and good, but a plain halfway modern bolt-action is going to shoot better.

>"Fashion" implies fleeting trends, while the most prized watch designs either are pre-quartz icons themselves, or based on them.
"Fashion" is the wrong term then; "decorative", maybe. It's the same as a ring or a necklace or other jewellery; not as fleeting as norms in clothing, but still wanted more for its looks than anything else.
>In practical terms, very few people who shoot actually "need" to shoot.
Certainly true, but even among those who just want to shoot for its own sake, a breech-loading flintlock is impractical.

I'll be fair. Ornamentation on weaponry is /k/. Also, you don't really wear a gun per se to even remotely be /fa/. It's perfectly fine to talk about the non-functioning parts of weapons in /k/(, arguably, being aesthetically pleasing is also a function,) because it's part of their culture. However, /k/ != /g/.

While we do have our fair share of ricing threads and guts and cases, they serve as a natural extension of the rest of the board culture - which is mostly computers. Much of the discussion about watches on the other hand, do not. While they, themselves, certainly are /g/ objects - they are technology - the talk about them in these threads mostly revolves about their peripheral qualities - their design, their value retention, their collectivity - which make them more /fa/.

You ask yourself, does this topic really fit in with a board that talks about Gentoo, RMS, smartphones?

>>61214772
Well, that's fair enough. I still think that beyond a certain point, decoration - be it on a gun or a computer desktop or whatever - is if not "fashion" exactly, at least more about showing off how it looks than having something you like the look of.

I'm certainly not saying "no-one should wear watches" or even "if you wear a watch it shouldn't be mechanical". Just that in the age of fucking everything telling the time, wearing a watch is definitely more about having jewellery than about having something functional.

>>61214504
>whether the watch is well-made or not is besides the point
Not when you're talking about mechanical watches.

>a mobile phone will keep better time than any watch
Even mobile phones have a "design" to them that goes beyond the purely practical value.

>It's the same as a ring or a necklace or other jewellery
Except for the extremely intricate machinery inside that tells time from a strip of metal coiled up by the movements of your body.

>wanted more for its looks than anything else
You mean like a vast proportion of clothing in general?

>even among those who just want to shoot for its own sake, a breech-loading flintlock is impractical.
Shooting as a hobby is in itself impractical.
ANY hobby is in itself impractical.

>>61214772
>/g/ is for computer stuff
Fuck off.

>>61214864
Again, on old-world handmade pieces like mechanical watches and flintlock guns, decorations did serve a practical purpose: they demonstrated the creator's skill and were thus a testament to the functionality of the piece.

Not to mention the purely practical purpose of surface finishing like bluing and anglage.

>>61214864
>Just that in the age of fucking everything telling the time, wearing a watch is definitely more about having jewellery than about having something functional.
Wrong.

I wear a mechanical watch primarily to tell the time. And even my lowly 6R15 is off by only a few minutes every month, so it serves its purpose just fine.

But since this is something that's strapped to my body day and night for years and years, I'd prefer this particular item to have a little more heart to it than my TV remote.

And fyi, the accuracy pursuit for mechanical movements is still very much ongoing.
Modern technologies like MEMS, silicon springs, CAD, ceramics, ... mean mechanical movements are more accurate than ever.

Alright then. Might be too poor far that even, I'm East-Yuropooor and it would take a noticeable chunk out of my monthly pay, for a watch I'd only need once a year. Still, I'm tempted and might just go for it.

>>61215828
It's a great watch, I wear it on holiday and for DIY etc.

>>61215093

And proudly. I can't stand pretentious, masturbatory /lit/fags who think they're super enlightened for finding big words in a dictionary.

Pic related, people who use "antediluvian" in conversation.

Can someone spoon feed me why people call the co-axial the cuck-axial? Is it bad?

>>61216182
It's very picky about how much oil you use in servicing, you have to take it to OMEEGA to get it serviced, and the services are mandatory and expensive.

Ouch, sucks to be a brainlet I guess.

Yeah, I've been mostly staying away as well since these threads have mostly descended into pure fucking cancer.

The Seiko LCD digital is the SBPG001 and if you are looking for one, Y! Japan Auctions and patience are your only hope. Just be sure to search "Seiko s760" on there as the Japanese use movement codes rather than model numbers.

Shane takes internal email transfers for payment so that won't be an issue. Surprised he is still MIA though, I may try to get in touch with him this week myself.

>>61216452
*Interac email transfers

>>61216452
Alright I'll check the auctions. His voicemail said he was busy catching up on backlog for a while.

How much did you pay for that watch?

New samurais look breddy gud

>>61216479
$250 CAD plus shipping, they tend to go for ~15,000-20,000 Yen on Y! Auctions.

>>61213211
Vintage Seiko penis quartz fills that hole, but you're right that there's nothing modern there.

>>61216566
And you can get the radio signal fine?

So I've found my Grandad's old watch, unfortunately it appears that it's not working (watch is pic related), given that this watch isn't working, I'd like to get it working, however, I'm not overly knowledgeble about watches.

My Father said that it might have automatic movement, but from vigorously shaking it, it didn't appear to have automatic movement.

I'm not sure what's wrong with it, and I don't have the tools to open it, so I'd like to know, if I were to take it to a shop, how much would it cost to get fixed, or at least, how much could it cost to get fixed.

>>61212921
Is this true?

back of the watch

>>61216707

it literally says quartz on the dial, it's not automatic.

>>61216707
Dude, read the dial. It probably just needs a battery change.

>>61216713
More or less. Keep in mind that parts will still be around for repairs after the 10 years, they just won't be making new parts after that. NOS parts will be available for decades.

>>61212921
>>61216713
Grand Seiko only has a couple of basic movements: one basic spring drive, one basic hi-beat, one basic lo-beat, etc.
Movements remain in use much longer than "models".

And independent watchmakers (particularly in Japan itself) are likely to have parts long after the guaranteed availability period.

>>61216789
Let's focus on SD. Independents can service those? Doesn't the tri-sync reg. have special parts?

>>61216707
Replace the battery.

>>61216808
They service spring drives in the US, so it's not THAT special.

How good are solar watches? Heard here that they can last up to 50 years without service, in theory. I can live with that. I just hate replacing the battery.

>>61216756
>>61216777
aah, sorry, didn't realize.

>>61216134
This. Personally I'm going to get myself the OCW-S100-1AJF for Christmas.
Great watches.

Ive been through all the watches in the world and the red blackbay with leather strap is my fave along with the jaque droz charming bird (500k)

Rolex hits me at times but would have to try first

>>61217931
Can't go wrong with the Jaquet Droz charming bird. I bought one two months ago, and the next day went back immediately bought the wife and kids one too.
They're just good fun and accurate, everything you need in a watch.

>>61217974

Plz no bully, I am convinced I will get enough inheritance to buy one in twenty years time.

Is that so.

Personally my wrist size varies so much from alcohol use that a metal strap will either slip loose or strangle me.

Bought a watch at an auction, old гeнepaлcкиe for 30 euros, I was finally able to pick it up.
Took it to a jewelry I know, guy checked the movement, everything perfect.
Didn't like the bracelet (check here if you want to see the old one: http://oportunityleiloes.auctionserver.net/images/lot/2503/2503335_0.jpg), so got a NATO one. Really great quality, with stitches instead of hot glue, couldn't be happier.

*steps out of the shadows*

Heh... not bad, kid. Not bad at all. Your meme, I mean. It's not bad. A good first attempt. It's plenty dank... I can tell it's got some thought behind it... lots of quotable material...

But memeing isn't all sunshine and rainbows, kid. You're skilled... that much I can tell. But do you have what it takes to be a Memester? To join those esteemed meme ranks? To call yourself a member of the Ruseman's Corps? Memeing takes talent, that much is true. But more than that it takes heart. The world-class Memesters - I mean the big guys, like Johnny Hammersticks and Billy Kuahana - they're out there day and night, burning the midnight meme-oil, working tirelessly to craft that next big meme.

And you know what, kid? 99 times out of a hundred, that new meme fails. Someone dismisses it as bait, or says it's "tryhard," or ignores it as they copy/paste the latest shitpost copypasta dreamt up by those sorry excuses for cut-rate memers over at reddit. The Meme Game is rough, kid, and I don't just mean the one you just lost :^). It's a rough business, and for every artisan meme you craft in your meme bakery, some cocksucker at 9gag has a picture of a duck or some shit that a million different Johnny No-Names will attach a milion different captions to. Chin up, kid. Don't get all mopey on me. You've got skill. You've got talent. You just need to show your drive.

See you on the boards...
