Wristwatches, watches and watch-like gadgets

[Virtual Blue]

Another one but I don’t think I will keep it.
6 Gs alongside my mechanicals is enough.

Credit card took a hit as the last mint/black Traska Freediver was bought. Just have to pay the import taxes and it'll arrive.

Hmmm, ok. Maybe works with a limited range of outfits...

 

[donkyboy]

Yes. I do coordinate my watches to outfits. But generally like red and gold.

 

[Baronage-Phase]

I'd like to get an old fashioned wind up watch..with a big face and dial.

Anyone know of a make I can look for?

Eta .. budget is up to €70

 

[pogofish]

Have a look at Bergmann watches - I got a very nice and decent sized automatic (Automat2) from them for @£40

 

[Virtual Blue]

For £70, I would get an Orient watch.

...never understood fakes.
you can tell with the finishing and weight that it isn't real.

why pretend?

better off getting a quality watch for the money.

I wouldn't want one to be honest.
Just something with a plain white face that's a good size and easily read numbers and hands.

 

[donkyboy]

yes. had another look at these replicas. just dont look good.

 

[Liker]

I want to buy Mi Band 4. Fitness bracelet, which is already somewhat similar to the Apple watch

Anyone know about ELVES watches?


(Serious question)

yeah, they're meant to be shit

 

[Virtual Blue]

Thoughts?

That's a big watch. Personally I prefer the SKX 013 for its smaller size but similar look. You may have to get the strap separately but there are plenty of choices.

SKX is more in line with the PADI turtles no? Yes they are excellent watches.

Yes, agreed on separate strap - the new Sumo ones look cheap.

I think it's an unusual price point for an automatic diver with a 70 hour in-house movement.
I cannot think of another alternative.

Is 45mm too big on a 7 inch wrist?

 

[Chilli.s]

None of the automatics at this price can hold a candle to a quartz movement for accuracy. 45 mm case is too big on me, looks like a bedside clock strapped to me arm!

I can't think of any automatic watches at this price point that have these features.
Maybe Christopher Ward but their in-house movement based on the ETA and for some reason, their QC/ customer service have become non-existent.

Oris, Longines, Tag - all the same - all ETA - nothing special.
Maybe Tudor BB but those cost over a grand and half more.

I like the 9f quartz in the grand seiko and the superquartz in breitlings...(aerospace)
but i already have a shit load of G shocks and not not sure if i would buy one in a regular...

 

[Baronage-Phase]

€5.99

Gave up looking for a wind up watch and just needed a basic one.
It'll do. I'll see how long it lasts.

Continuing the G-Shock love.



Meant to be £115 (Tokyo airport duty free charges this). Bought for £54.

Only got it because I wanted to be able to turn the light on without removing my hand from the train handle.

They are so tough and so accurate. I'd like a tidal one like you have but already have a 25 yr old g shock that wont die.

Can only wear one!

Where did you get it for that price?

 

[Fez909]

New watch for me today. My Rodina homage/rip-off of Nomos stopped self-winding a while back and the hand winding was annoying me.

I can't afford the watches I would like right now, so went for a cheapo Skagen in the meantime with a nice design.

Was going to replace the strap immediately but it looks nicer in person than it did on the website, so going to leave it on for a bit.

Japanese movement? Is it loud?

Very true.
I need to keep my collection to 11 watches.
and I can only wear 1 at a time.
