Repost from last thread. Seiko 007
Still this.
>>704093380
At least you're not calling it fake anymore. We're making progress here slowly and surely
>>704093453
I'm just ignoring the piece of shit from now on.
Seriously, two threads about watches at the same time? Who fucking wears a watch?
>>704092870
What'd you get this for?
>>704093007
How is North Jersey this time of year, jagoff?
>>704093542
Doze baby hands Doe
>>704093581
lol, you have more hope for cunt-waste than I do. I see people like that taking their scooters to wallmart and just want to rid the world of their fucking existence every fucking time I see them.
>>704093666

What's it like not having testosterone?
>>704093181
Buddy I can break your heart if I opens my safe tonite. Literally I should but I'll keep you waiting I'll just say 24k and also a presidential in the mix. Tell your papa I'll be seeing him next time he is in Texas
>>704092990
That IWC aviator is fantastic
>>704093532
What's that green dot above the 6? From watch or reflection?
>>704093581
It's still fake when you don't own it and it's your papa's you faggot
ancient ABC from first GF
>>704093880
You tell me.
>>704093881
Break my heart how? I love to look at Rolexes.
>>704093937
Reflection.
>>704093582
Still doesn't change the fact that your some piece of shit
>>704094023
I wouldn't know. I can grow arm hair.
>>704094103
That thing is sick. Same anon from old thread who lost one on a wreck dive. I literally need one on my watch drawer
>>704093888
Thanks, not a very good pic of them took it hasty. Fist watch was the silver dial on left I think it's a Mark XV, but I like the black dial of the pilots chrono better now.
>>704093839
thats how someone with baby hands would reply
>>704093542
>>704094103
That's a really good looking Seiko, I'm a bit jelly
>>704094290
Go for it. Probably the best sub $1000 automatic you can buy.
>>704094307
So soft and supple.
Still this
Is it just me or are the cheaper thin Natos more comfy than the 'premium' ones?
>>704092990
those look like the tell-tale "happy feet" on the Omega. Reps.
>>704094502
Why NATOs though? I don't get the appeal? Nice watch BTW
can't tell from my pic but the Zenith is really a nice looking piece. Blue dial and gold hands, and the back is a display and Zenith really finishes their workings
meme watch
>>704094502
nice
>>704094078
Yea it's overpriced crap imo that's why I keep them in a safe not to mention the last submariner broke a band in a street fight on the side of 290. FYI still think your Pepsi roli is a hammy down from papa and not bought just like my 24k
>>704093380
>>704093802
>>704093881
Yeah, I'm not going to respond to the trolls anymore and just enjoy the watches in the thread.
For when you need the Nokia 330 of watches, see pic related
>>704094723
You got into a street fight? You seem like such a nice guy. I hope I get to fight you someday.
>2016
>wearing wrist fedoras
So do any anons actually scuba dive that where submariner/ dive watches or is it just a fashion thing?
>>704094723
>>704094979
Oh Texas. That explains a lot. Yeah I'll never be going to your shit tier state. Scratch that fight order
I just got an Apple Watch 2,
i aint even trying to bait,
I got it.
I regret getting it deeply.
Like
Holy shit,
Why did i do this?
It's not what i expected....
>>704094591
Different colour combinations can change the entire look of the watch.
Plus more comfy than steel bracelet.
>>704095017

Daaaaaum
>>704094817
Lol troll man I can break your heart and show you rolex now a days are crap mine literally broke while beating some dudes ass on the side of the highway. And my 24k is locked up next to my uncle's old Tommy gun and a Springfield from the Spanish American war. Google my uncle dipshit Duncan McMartin big game hunter. My grand parents owned one of the biggest mining company in South Africa. So fuck you. I has ever right to be a skeptic of that rolex till he posted proof.
>molex watch
>damn, stuck at 4:20
>>704094817
lol, welcome to the club
>>704095060
007 fag here. Fashion thing, but I like function over form, and dive watches fit that for me.
>>704093444
Ahahahhahhahahhaha I get it watch >:]
>>704095017
I work at a job where I need to check the time every few minutes for production. Pulling out my phone every time gets annoying. either way your opinion is retarded.

Is there something wrong with your self-esteem?
>>704094378
Weak.
>>704095060
I wear this:>>704094850
Simply for the fact that I know that it's indestructible. It would either cause my to probably lose my arm or die to destroy that watch for anything practical that I would be doing.
Movado bitch
>>704095222
Yup because
Owning wrist watch= automatic class
Only a classless faggot such as yourself would believe materialism is the answer to being classy.
>>704095540
ehh the face is too big
>>704094103
Is that Seiko green?
>>704094850
Have the solar powered one of these. Practically indestructible.

Wow, and you can barely write. Sad
>>704095098
Actually from Bermuda with British citizenship but currently reside in Chicago I say Texas because that's where he had his serviced. Which I will be sending my green submariner in since it has been broken since 2013 and still is sitting on my dresser collecting dust. But if your ever in Chicago come to lakeshore tower. The one closest to lake Michigan ask for McMartin say your name is woodrod. I'll put that name on my guest list for 24/7 access I'll show you a 100k gold roli from 76 that is like new

>>704095654
Smartwatch though, need a big display to see the other readouts (or at least I'm guessing)
>>704095857
I haven't had to change the battery in the like 5 years or so I've had this. Not sure if it's solar under the screen or some shit but it's batteries have lasted a lot longer than they normally do.
>>704095907
its actually a really good watch i've beaten the everliving shit out of it and its still going
>>704095875
Wow English is like my 4th language so sad I'm not some fat piece of shit American enjoy your options for President
>>704092990
>>704095869
It's a good looking piece. I'm looking a getting a green 'hulk' (I think that's what they call it) Rolex Sub. But that's a great looking watch.
>>704095907
Lol probably some Hypebeast asain kid swear the only people to wear gshock
>>704095902
I may take you up on that. I have family in Milwaukee.
>>704092990
I have the blue version of that pearl diver on the right there. Nice one.
Starting out
Just got this import
>>704096035
Hey don't lump me in with that assclown or the other two assclowns running for president.
>>704096130
And thank you sir. I'm proud of my stash.
>>704095615
I had one and sold it. Got tired of people asking me the time as a joke because you have to guess the whole time still they are nice just impractical but 100× better then fossil or Michael kors so good stylish buy anon

So you inherited all of your Daddy's money, and yet this is the basis of your troll. Neat
>>704096485
Tag, 2 Rolexes, and an AP?
>>704096239
What's the one with the leather band called? Im gonna buy it
>>704096495
OP did you see my comment >>704093297
>>704096289
very noice, is that the JDM version?
>>704095902
I'm a CRNA. I make decent cash but I don't flaunt it. I only own the one rolex because it has sentimental value for me. I don't buy flashy things like gold watches. I prefer understated and classic. But good for you and your african land mines.
>>704096180
Please do many tasteless asshole in Chicago. And I've grown quite bored of this shitty liberal city. Also that is a nice Pepsi roli and thank you for posting service record since that guy seems credible I will send mine there

Says the one accusing others of having inferior body features. Size of body parts seems to be important to you. I guess you aren't doing as well on other parts of your life.
I have a day off. I have time for you.

>>704093203
>>704092328
Nice OP, you ,and I all have the same Seiko. I got mine in a card game is it worth anything. I usually wear it to formal dinners. Since my other two are just dive watches
>>704096485
what is that one on the back? Blancpain Bathyscape?
>>704096485
So it that a Tag in the upper left?
>>704096577
Old Timex, not tag. Its not high end but one of my favorites nonetheless.
>>704097072
not mad at all, thanks for cont this thread
>>704097167
Yeah, I was thinking Tag but think you're right.
>>704095902
Very nearly favorite island - Cup Match/Non Mariner's race always a gas. Usually rent house from Christine Whitney in Somerset
>>704092328
people still wear these fuckin things?
>>704095540
I'd get something like this if:
1) It had a sim card for LTE and texting
2) Decent battery
3) No flat tire bottom of screen
LG Urbane watch is pretty cool, but it's huge and shitty looking.
>>704097370
Nice mate maybe see you over there when I'm back in December
>>704096577
>>704097200
>>704097167
here is a better photo
M'lady
>>704097782
holy shit, I swear it was a Blancpain. Very nice watch
>>704097301
The way your lum glows I almost thought it was a Ball watch. They don't use lum but a bit of radium (I think) and they glow like fucking cray for about 10-15 years before they start to fade.
>>704096511
Thanks anon. It's a prospex Japanese import diver. Best watch quality/price ratio I have out of my collection.
Thoughts?
>>704097907
Yeah no shit, even up close it looks like a BP, really well done Timex.
>>704092328
>>704098091
>>704097864
kek, that's fucking great.
>>704097145
same here, all my collection consist basically in dive watches, this is my second ¨dressier¨ watch, the other one is a Girard Perregaux gyromatic form the 60´s
>>704096536
More like great grand papi money but yea it's fun being rich. And also those diamond mines are long gone and just barebonds remain and some useless property
>>704095632 Shut the fuck up little jason
>>704097453
very nice
>>704098091
Tag with small seconds?
>>704096792
Lol diamond mines but I'm sure those stupid Africans now filled it up with landmines. Dumb ass negro's destroyed so much of our family property
>>704097907
Thanks!
Lume shot of the exp ii
>>704097952
Ball watches are beautiful. I need to add one to my collection.
>>704098170
Cool, enjoy that money! You're fortunate
>>704098138
Damn that's lit up, except for the dark moon. Good glow.
>>704098408
have you ever tried one in person? I want one too
>>704094502
awesome watch
>>704098290
Haha yeh, that uncommon? Can't say I know much about watches, it was a gift.
>>704098520
Thanks. yeh always found glow to be a bit "childish" but I din this one nice, also some of the others in here have really nice glow to them.
>>704096792
lol, so you get to say 'go to sleep now bitch!'
old wittnauer dive watch
>>704098585
I've had a couple of them and they are built solid as fuck, tanks really.
>>704097995
Link I must buy that one aswell
>>704098044
>Fossil watch
Buy a watch from an actual watch company
Kek
>>704098775
nice, the wear on it looks great
>>704098091
awesome watch i have a pair of the vintage midsize model
>>704098044
crap
I've always found "Quartz" to be a solid brand. For my dollar I find these watches keep good time for like $6 bucks. BTW this is my "at home" watch. I don't even need one when I'm out slaying pussy but whatever you need to compensate whatever
>>704098678
Not really uncommon, just a different feature they'll use from time to time. Usually on chronos though.
>>704098954
kek, without Tag on the label, they look like they're worth $10 at a flea market.
>>704097747
I've never been there in December, but it sounds like a nice place for Boxing Day - boring, but no tourists either.
>>704098462
Fortunate that the family on my father's side didn't have any money in the US market during the great depression like mother's side did; lost everything and had to sell the norway home in 1923 now it's a 4 star hotel 125rooms overlooking the Atlantic
>>704098585
I've even thought about grabbing the stormchaser dlc they have out. Shit's like a Christmas tree at night.
>>704098977
that watch is embarrassing
Wallmart
>>704098775
God those things look so good restored, to bad it ruins the value. Otherwise I do still like the "worn" look.
>>704098954
Thanks. Those look sick, nice to see what they have come from. The style is so similar.
>>704098990
Ah I see. I like it for the most part, but typically I prefer no second hand.
>>704098977
I love that watch
>>704095581
If it's dependable it's wearable, it reminds me of the Timex watch I had while enlisted in US Army. I still have that timex strapped to my jump bag in my bugout box in my truck.
Party like it's 1981. Stock photo but I have one. And no it ain't worth shit I just like it.
>>704099334
That's a sick collection, what's that shit top left though?
>>704098812
Im fascinated with the tritium technology, I have a Luminox Mariner PVD, really is a piece of shit, the movement broke with only one month of use, anyway, still want the tritium but in an automatic and higher end brand, Ball is the only one beside Traser and Luminox?
>>704099142
funny you said that because I paid $1 each from a flea market basket of watches
>>704095427
Dive watches are nice i just never knew it was really fashionable I always wore them because it a good backup when dive computer fails or you need to time your surface intervals
valjoux triple date moonphase
Here is a better pic of the Zenith front and back
>>704099623
Davinchi code watch. From the movie
>>704099585
Solid. Remember my first Casio watch in 3rd grade - it was blue w blue band. Thanks for nostalgia feels trigger anon
>>704095123
but they get all black and nasty from dead skin
Old Suunto Vector. On its last legs, but has been a trooper for the shit I put it through.
>>704099642
Yeah tritium is what I was thinking of, and I'm pretty sure Ball is about the only one who uses like they do and not just little dabs here and there. I really don't know though if anyone else has started competing with Ball, the last Ball I had was a few years ago.
>>704098775
Sick dive watch would love that for my collection would want to see if useful 23 meter below
>>704100245
myyy negroeee
>>704099865
lol, you saying you got an AP for a dollar?
>>704098145
I know nothing about that Seiko dresser other then I won it in a card game and it was used to cover 100$ of the 500$ I won. So did I get scammed?
>>704100638
No i paid $1 each for those 2 vintage formula 1 TAGs I posted earlier, I bought the AP used for just over 11k
>>704097952
Christ radium. Hopefully you never crack the lens. I'm pretty sure the person who discovered radium died from radiation poisoning
>>704100633
And it keeps looking good no matter how close up you get
>>704095288
>>704101028
I was wrong it's tritium not radium. I'm pretty sure it's safe but they do have to get a licence from the government to work with it.
>>704100516
Ugh I just don't get these watches yes they make good dive aids but it just looks like a simplified newer dive watch computer.
>>704092990
If you had to choose between IWC and Omega, which would it be?
>>704100877
Kek buys flea market watches and also buy 11k rolex at first I thought you where a Jew anon now I'm confused so here's a pic of a shark I slayed awhile back
Hey anons, OP of this thread here. I'm crashing out, it's been fun and keep ignoring the fucking troll.
>>704101283
Yea cause radium is like not stable I forgot what isotopes are but if it was in any watch I'd start buying a whole bunch cause you can use radium to make a small reactor to power a small house
>>704101295
That's not a dive computer though.
>>704101741
Fuck you OP I'm still here lurking from chicago. Remember I'm rich your not.
>>704101295
I've personally never used it for such, that's what my Zoop is for. It's an ABC, and has been my last resort backup for hiking/hunting in that role. Otherwise, it's been my larger-display digital watch that isn't a dang g-shock.
>>704101638
Im a musician for a living, when not out for tour I thoroughly enjoy flea markets. Sometimes I find neat stuff
>>704101583
Omega, for a dive and IWC for a pilots. Out of all my watches the Omega kept the exact second for >6 months and I was using the atomic clock to check it. After that it started to go off a bit but no more than any other watch I had. I like IWC, but for the money a good Omega is a great fucking choice. So I didn't answer your question worth a fuck, sorry. Both very good and about the same price range so go try them on and see which one groovs with you.
>>704102051
I know which is what makes me kinda hate it more cause it looks like something you wear to get your blood pressure when working out. But to each his own but why a suunto if your not a scuba Steve
>>704100616
Ugh I had a Timex dive watch looked fucking awesome [i know what should I have expected?!] rated for 40 meters. Went down 15 meters and dive master points at my watch. Filled with water except a bubble leaking small bubbles out the side. Signals "go up?" No way! Watch already fucked. Take it off, tried to get a grouper to eat it. Spits out and onto sea floor. Prolly crab wearing it now.
Mfw when crab now gettin mad crab pussy wearin my watch cuz crab ladies don't even know watch dont work no more.
Stupid cunts
>>704102121
You've seen my watches, one who has a dick holder for a mouth. And you live in Chicago, nigger you ain't rich.
>>704102140
Tru, I just don't get them I kinda hate them like I said before but how do you like the zoop? Also let's meet up if your in FL always could use another dive buddy
>>704101243
you are the chubbiest of manlets. Look at that wrist, LOOK AT IT
>>704102251
Nah, that's what I was looking for, thanks for the info!
>>704102121
First rule of 4chan, don't you know you're not to show a pic of your face. And I'm sorry ma'am about all the 'cunt' comments I've made. Next time I'm up in Chicago I'll help you carry your bags across the street.
>>704102429

Yeah anyway to the Men here, good night gents.
>>704102615
Nah the band was just tighter. I'll upload a new picture in a second.
>>704102401
Lol oh god it's okay I lost a new Seiko on a wreck dive . My mouthpiece on my main kept falling off so using my BC inflator hose octo. Shit literally pulling at my mouth cause the BC hose idea is shit. So sometime in the wheelhouse I start sticking my hand in hole. When I pull it out poof watch gone. Try to look for it. Visibility shit. Stop looking and notice my two dive buddies are gone. Bang my tank hear nothing in return. Check my air fuck me barely 1000. So make my ascent to surface with luckily dive boat was near by cause I didn't have a safety sausage so I was waving my spear gun
>>704102307
Some of those Vectors actually have heart rate monitoring.
I'm not the one with Vector but I'll answer anyway. For me the most important features are barometer, thermometer, compass and GPS. So basically it's a navigation aid. I'm outdoors a lot and it's handy to have that information easily available. And it's not just "nice to know" information for me.
>>704102813
>lakeshoresrive tower
kek, you live there but don't know to put spaces between the names??? Yep, we all really believe you, I mean like a lot. Really we all think you live there and are rich.
>>704102494
Fair enough. I love it so far, haven't used as much as i really wanted to in the almost 2yrs I've owned it. Unfortunately not in FL anymore, moved back to GA, but hoping to get back down that in the winter
>>704103009

It's a Seiko SKX011J1 with an aftermarket band and a Dr.Seikostein bezel and bezel insert, all parts from Ebay.
>>704105167
Yeah, but those uniforms did look sharp.
>>704104588
Jajajaja så morsomt jeg glemte engelsk er dritt if you don't know dipshit English is my 4th language do you even speak Spanish you fat American?
>>704105301
Hell yea they did especially the SS skull not to mention that camo patterns where on point. Why did we even stop the Nazis they had alot of cool shit tbh
>>704105265
How much for you to build one for me?
>>704105265
beautiful.
did you do the work yourself?
>>704105624
I'm thinking maybe because of the whole genocide thing, but yeah other than that they were a real mentsch.
>>704104649
>>704104649
That's cool as fuck I'm surprised they go for that cheap was thinking it would be something around 2-3k but a little over 1k isn't bad. How long do the batteries last?
>>704092870
Nice, what year? I'm looking at a 1969 for aroun 5000 US
>>704092328

>>704106058
picked mine up second hand in Europe for 220 euro, basically 300 bucks. I'm a fan.
Watch is 2-3 years old and i changed the batteries for the first time a month ago?
>>704106204
Finally someone with something similar to mine. You an American faggot like the rest of these anons?
>>704105669
Easy to build bro. With the parts you can put this together in 15 mins. Questions?
>>704106304
Nice I'll have to keep my eyes open when I'm over there next year. This watch really got me interested. In my dress watches
>>704106510
Send link to my Kik dansen420 I definitely want to build one.
>>704094502
take it off that nato my g. The only real option for the speedy besides a metal band variant is a brown zulu. And that even may be pushing it
>>704094502
lol that matching.
>>704092671

>>704092328
Stay classy, gentlemen.
>>704100809
$100 is about right. might've been a pretty good deal depending on how new it was
>>704094633
it's funny that the owners of the nicest watches are the same guys that can only regurgitate what the saleman told them when they bought it. Look at you stumbling around trying to use the correct words and failing
>>704106510
1. do you have a crystal removing tool? are they hard to utilize?
2. also, did you swap out the movement for anything newer?
3. I do wear my watches scuba diving. once you mod your watch - should it still be rated for the depths specified?
4. best place to buy Seiko parts, and are they mostly interchangeable ie dials/bezels/movement etc.?
>>704106618
I'll try to get that info to you asap. The hardest part of putting this together is removing the bezel but with the right tool it pops right off. What's your email, no kik, sorry.
>>704106714
I bet he has matching Fedora
>>704095060
I use my dive watch as a general utility watch. I collect vintage so it's really the only rugged watch I could wear to do something more menial than shuffle around the office
>>704092328
total garbage. sage
>>704095615
eh, used to be a great brand. Now produces quartz watches you can't tell the time on for 500 US
>>704100809
look up Seiko 5 sports, go to images and find your model - yours is about +/-200 new I think (and holds its value, it's a popular model in the modding community).
>>704100877
where in the fuck do you find tags for $1?
>>704097283
honestly the first watch in this thread i have cared about
>>704106204
is it just me or does that bezel look a bit too wide
>>704100223
Wonderful! I kinda like the spotty patina. Do you know the ref. # on that valjoux movement
>>704092328

>>704101638

the flea market man. Not OP but it's not an unimaginable scenario that someone selling a heap of quartz cheapo watches threw in 2 of those formula ones. F1's from that period were cheap toy watches, plastic and rubber with quartz movement. Honestly that heap is where they belong, without the label they would be worthless
My dad gave this to me a couple years ago /b/. Is it good, idk much about watches
>>704107776
Yeah I do some restoration myself. Simple things that I've picked up over the past 10 years of collecting. But I am constantly going to flea markets, antique malls, estate sales, auctions, and etc. I make a good chunk of change doing it too.
>>704107686
Pls someone sell me a vintage Seiko to mod.
>>704107892
For you, its probably good.
>>704107947
I bet, if you know what you're looking for, you're gold. Too cool.
Do you have a favorite vintage brand?
>>704107702
Bonnet shark caught in the gulf. Tasted great. I cleaned it before it pisses the skin. Just hit it with a little lemon and old bay then threw it on the grill. Still prefer hog fish but whatever still great eating
>>704107892
You don't need to know anything about watches to like something and wear it. Just do you fam
>>704107686
Check you email later, I'll get ya started on the right path.
>>704107948
Dude you can find old ones lokeine on eBay for like 30 bucks it's only rated for 150m but seriously are you a tech diver and doing decompression dives. I doubt it so pick on up on eBay.
>>704106336
yes. this is my first watch... then I got the james cameron Deep Sea.. should I post a pic?
>>704108056
Is that why shark meat can smell like ammonia? how do they "piss their skin"?
>>704107527
perhaps you have never seen a 41mm before
>>704108044
nice dubs. Honestly it's a total toss up. I first started collecting solely vintage american (Pre 69 Hamilton, Elgin, Gruen, benrus). You name any american brand and I'm sure at some point I've owned one. But now I'm collecting more of stuff with complications. I like triple dates, chronos, moonphases, old power reserves, and a bunch of other comps. I have a thing for Landerons right now

Are you a hype beast or asain?
>>704108247
yeah, post a pic
>>704107780
Not the guy with the watch. But I'm wondering what the hell a hype beast is
>>704108230
sweet, will do. going to do a soxa mod of the Doxa Numa (pic related).
although I'm having a hard time finding that correct color, dagaz's blue hue is perhaps too dark.
i'll probably do a shark-mesh or rice-bead bracelet.
>>704108247
Post pic of rolex band and rear of watch mate. Where did you get that roli and when did you service it last?
>>704106678
Like this?
>>704108470
How cool. Do you work on movement? Or mostly aesthetics? I'm just getting into very amateur watchmaking.
>>704098775
That's a fucking awesome watch. You know you might be able to take a lot of the surface scratched from the dial off with one of those superfine nail file sticks. But obviously, check the grain of it first. I've seen some 1500/2000 grit polish sticks cheap enough and they won't ruin anything. I can't even find that watch on Ebay fuck.
>>704108561
use urban dictionary for more. But it's basically someone whose understanding of fashion or luxury products goes about as deep as what's popular. So they will buy items that are easily associated with excessive money or street style couture. An example would be someone wearing yeezy 350 boosts, balmain biker jeans, a supreme tee, a just don fitted, a g shock, and a rope chain.
>>704108339
They like don't have a bladder and the piss leaves the body thru their skin something like that. Legally I'm not suppose to remove the head completely but fuck it. so you have to cut the spin and clean the guts out like right after you catch them and killin'em.
>>704108776
exactly like that. looks 1000x better my dude.

>>704109012
ah I see, how interesting
>>704109054
Thanks friend this is what a usually wear weekends or going out etc.
I do like the NATO bands for work because it's a physical job and I sometimes sweat and get wet etc.
>>704109120
no deepsea pic?
>>704108938
You forgot to also put in g-shock and Micheal kors lol
>>704108817
Both. I can completely service most mechanicals and autos, but I have some trouble with chronos or weird complication movements. Like right now I'm in the middle of a disassembly on a hamilton that uses a split stem and a micro rotor. Super tedious stuff. Working on dials is super hard but rewarding if you do it right. Generally you have to be good with this sort of thing in order to feasibly make good money off of it. Otherwise there's too much overhead coming from jeweler's bills
>>704109150
yes 007
>>704109248
Ahhh. Well at the end of the day it's not my taste that matters, so do what you want
>>704109150
That sick what did the build cost you?
>>704108938
Holy fucking shit nigga I didn't know that there was a name for people like that I just called em white people. I bought that gshock a couple years ago cuz it blended with an old sweater I used to wear but now I just leave it in display next to my monitor

Oh you're a cali fag so you don't waste your time you over paid for it. The people here are watch people not fucking idiots like you paying for a status symbol oh and new rolex are crap compared to classic pre 1980s rolex. So find a new thread kiddo cause no one care how you flex your papa's money
>>704109681
its fake. he didn't buy anything.
>>704109561
Thanks, that was the goal. I'd like to get a ceramic bezel to complete the look.
>>704109442
$160 for all the parts.
>>704108817
When I was your age, I'm assuming the picture on the boat was you, I was just starting to take the watch case backs off and look at the movement. I had hardly scratched the surface of watchmaking. I would still call myself only a hobbyist because the experts truly are experts. However, my advice to you would be to just open up the watches you get. Go to estate sales or antique stores and pick up cheap watches or try to find some steals once your brand knowledgeable. You will get familiarized with the movements enough where you can say "hey, that's a nice movement" or "this movement is dirty" and from there just read, read, and read. Look at charts, take shit apart (hopefully nothing expensive), and keep collecting
