your shilling worked, gonna pick up that Casio
God you fuckers are so easily swayed.
My Movado
This is not me
It is a good watch, I have one coming right now too.
well it's 20 bucks so who gives a shit, and Casio can't be bad, they can just be ugly. Is the digital time independent of the analog?
>finally work up the courage to ask my local Rolex AD for a Rolex Magazine
>It's an issue about female empowerment and the history of women and horology
>Most of the pictures in it are of those Rolex models that are full of jewels and diamonds
It is, so technically its dual time.
KEK
Will post scans when it comes. Probably scans already on some Japanese watch forum for all I know.
>>It's an issue about female empowerment and the history of women and horology
How do you like my NOMOS collection?
Fat fucks get out.
how do you know if you're the baby or enlightened?
Yes! My OC has been adopted.
HURRY UUUUUUUUP
they had to know that it was a penis, no way that was unintentional
The hands tick at exactly 00, 20 and 40 seconds on the digital display but yea they are independent but easy to sync.
>The hands tick at exactly 00, 20 and 40 seconds on the digital display
what?
How long until fatty posts again?
The minute hand moves a little every 20 seconds
oh ok, that's quite neat
I'm assuming minute hand moved 3 times per minute.
>00 minute hand ticks forward eyc
Looks interesting, why did you put the red line there?
>Looks interesting, why did you put the red line there?
just trying to help
You can only be enlightened after owning an expensive over priced watch.
>still a toddler
>his rep dealer isn't an American living in china and thus doesn't care about chink holidays
Absolute pleb.
I'm absolutely in love with this 18 carat, rose gold Casio Ana-Digi watch purchased from the beautiful river of Amazon. Made with acrylic infused plastic that even my fingernail can scratch, I've spoiled myself with this gorgeous timepiece. The quartz calibre has been crowned as the most successful watch movement ever produced, completely handmade by chinks. It is also my very first day double time watch and it will be interesting to see if it becomes an important feature that Will depend on over time. I hope you all enjoy this watch as much as I do.
Holy shit.
Saved, thank you my man.
fixed to soothe autism
There's a new meme in town
>if it becomes an important feature that Will depend on over time.
it got me thinking, who the fuck is Will?
did a slight edit and changed from "completely handmade by man" to "completely handmade by chinks"
Where did your knuckles go
What a fucking ugly child
Sold em to buy tag huehue
That's what the mom gets for being a race traitor
You have a dealer that actually keeps stock of replicas?! Mine's in Spain. I've had the QC photos but not sure if it's shopped yet.
>tfw cool Seiko 5 pattern dial
So this leaves me with a question. Can you set 2 timezones on those ana-digi?
Don't be mean to John, he's all right.
It has dual time but yea sure you can. The analogue part is just a dumb mechanism with no coupling to the digital part.
>So this leaves me with a question. Can you set 2 timezones on those ana-digi?
somebody just above already said yes, dummy
but whys is his name John, that's too generic. That's the name I use for my online mistress, ffs
Nigger where do you think you are? This is Jow Forums, not Jow Forums.
>tfw the Casio gang comes after you
you're fat
and you should feel bad about being fat
stop eating shit, fatass
That's nice then. Would be pretty stupid if you couldn't.
Not his fault his parents have him the most generic anglo name possible.
No, only small stock, but now that you say that I see where the problem is. Doesn't help with your dealer being good to go if the supplier is asleep.
Different. Would look good on a tanned girl

For those interested the watch is 29mm across and the whole watch weighs 44 grams which is startlingly light. It truly is a flimsy piece of shit.
Thanks.
Swatch skin does that as well. It's the slowest visible beat rate of a wrist watch I'm aware of, with the Seiko 8m25 in second at 1 tick every 12 seconds.
Aaaaannnnnnddd this is why I never posted wrist shots on here

Will be able to translate anything else when you post it
I think being fat is your bigger problem
I can not believe he really bought a $1200 windyknob TAG just to troll us
Agreed, and it's being worked on my friend. You guys can meme me all you want but it's not going to change the obvious.
Who?

what are we wearin
are you the fat Canadian, the rolex guy?
..—...-...-...—-
Anyone here ever done timezone watch school? I want to learn how to fix or service watch movements.
Good luck, John. Unironically wish you the best.
Kashio
This Casio Ana-digi meme is only a few days old right?
Hamilton Intra-Matic
no
What the fuck did you faggots do to that poor watch
Yup, there's a thing for creating new obnoxious memes and spam them as soon as a thread starts, I'm willing to bet more than a few by the same person.
>Casio Ana-digi
>meme
It's haute horology.
ROLEX'D!
Where can I buy this
To all you faggessens that own the casio osama or variation thereof (or the latest maymay ana-digi):
Do you turn on your hourly chime?
Why?
Why not?
The shit watch I've made with the movement that moves around the case. And yes I know I have to cut the stem.
are the chinks really making a databank ripoff? like not just a shitty 99c calculator watch?
Had to roll my sleeve up to take a decent pic. It's a bit too thick to fit under my cuff comfortably hence the marks where it digs into my arm. This shirts cuffs are a bit weird it fits comfortably under my other shirts.
Was thinking that what this is missing is an integrated jubilee bracelet (or a nato with fused bars) and faux screws on the bezel.
yo mang your crown's trying to escape
nope, it's annoying and I suppose it drains the battery faster
Yeah, it's comfy and I leave it on most of time. Especially at home when I'm not wearing the watch, it's still audible enough to remind me of passing hours.
God, I'd love a striking Zeitwerk.
also this got me thinking, maybe pocket watch sonneries are affordable enough?
>hourly chime
Would be pretty annoying hearing a casio beep every hour.
It go so annoying while just pushing the buttons that I disabled the piezo on mine.
Any cool clocks worth collecting? sub $600
It's in the closed position in that picture too.
But I'll cut the stem once I find a way to make the movement sit right in the case - or I'll buy another dial or case if I need to. The strap is obviously not staying either.
Yes
>why
so it goes beep
Get a nixie tube clock.
If you're lucky you can sometimes find an Atmos for around that, like in an estate sale or something. And that's very much cool and worth collecting.
How do you know the buttons are pushed all the way in?
That is a real problem, looking to have a stripe milled around the circumference
None.
They're all still expensive as fuck. Not 100k+ though, at least.
Problems are the cost to get them serviced by someone that actually knows how to do it (or make the parts from scratch) and the greatest struggle is finding the someone competent to work on it at all.
ok, so it will just remain a dream then, well at least I can go to my local church to listen to the bells
The apple watch unironically has beautiful realistic deep and rich bell tones available
