This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that are required to make a fine watch, clock, or other timepiece.

Used watch guide and watch essentials 102 updated as previous ones were dead.
Please tell me the 'no true dress watch' joke is deliberate.

How do I spin this to make it look like the OP is in the wrong and people should use my thread instead?
You should just be fine with getting cucked, it's your speciality after all.
You should kys yourself and be done with it. ;^)
Rate my watch
So this seems to be a video of a badly-serviced accutron. The tines move 158-159 times, but the second hand advances more than a second. This can happen when the fingers aren't set up correctly; instead of advancing the index wheel by one tooth, the finger pushes the wheel 2-3 teeth for each vibration.
The other thread was not at the bump limit, reported
enjoy your ban
So there are no Tag Heuer in-house movements then? What a shame.
>>my thread was made five seconds later
>>can't deal with not being the OP
post blacked, where the girls are crying
SLAVED
Are you sure that will actually help?
It was.
You are just trying to get a ban on whoever is the next op by deleting your post spam after the thread is made.

This, the real thread is here.
Best migrate before the illegal one is deleted.
Nice.
>The lenghts faggotry you are willing to go.
Here we go again..
great another /wt/ thread ruined from the start
and I had today off and wanted to post
Come back in 30 min or so, it will be over then.
Guys, this isn't complicated.
Just use non-illegal threads and don't shitpost Quartz or Japanese watches.
Simple.
>Just use non-illegal threads and don't shitpost Quartz or Japanese watches.
very nice. Im gonna pick up an original one of those soon. I love that dial.
Just post, regulars are still here
Did the Tudor poster ever say anything about his age? I'm asking for a friend.
I come back from time to time but i honestly can't handle all this bullshit in every thread
UNPLEASANT PLS NO
I'm 14.
I know for a fact he is jewish.
Is this your?
Post movement shot pls.
Only 14 year olds buy Tudor.
It is a shame. Sadly wt still has the best frequency of meaningful technical discussion of other places I've found. The signal to noise ratio has just decreased.
Anyone know what watch this nigger is wearing?
I wish /wt/ was a hub of modders, watchmakers and tinkerers where we all would share ideas and do projects together.
A man can only dream.
Not him but I as a new poster think it's more strange than annoying. I mean, I honestly would like to think if this guy has some kind of mental problem.
Fuck me man, I thought this was a random ebay lot pic.
Post shots of gold penis on bracelet, raketa diver, sekonda chrono and that moonphase please.
dude just glue a phone on your wirst like it's not that hard y'all getting scammed by these so called watches lmao
It's not my collection, it's another anons.
sauce
Golden vintage moonphase on the bottom left.
That guy has his shit together.
So many interesting pieces on one collection.
Nice trips.
I'm not getting scammed since I don't buy swiss or chink.
really struggling to decide between black and padi versions. I'm not sure about the pepsi bezel, but I do love the deep textured wave dial on this. Its also a fitting watch to celebrate my return to PADI and diving with. Blue lume is also really nice. I do like the black/black though and I feel the pepsi makes it look cheaper.
Thanks, nice dubs.
agreed. He was here a while ago trying to sell the raketa, sekonda, and chronostrop. Didn't see any takers though.
I am going to see her tonight I told her I wanted to get her a watch because I can’t have her go around wearing a shitter. She said she wanted a watch that meant something.
So I got her the spooky watch from 1999 when I was a teenager also I got her another one from the same era I will post next
I never liked the Samurai. Maybe it's the bezel.
have you gotten a new strap?
Fuck off.
I used to wear a watch just like this.
This is a ladies Iron Man from 1996 with the tags still on it. It is new old stock condition and pretty hard to find it’s 100% brand new and perfect
The indiglo works great
its one of the few divers that fits me due to the short, sloped lugs and I liked it a lot in person
Tudor is the worst watch brand I know of honestly. I can understand why Tudor poster didn't want to pay 2000 on a real one.
He was asking a bit too much.
80 bucks for a Raketa (not serviced I presume) is too much.
We all can contribute this way.
Sadly, since I'm on a strict budget the most complex project I ever did was hydro modding some digital watches.
I'd love to assemble a watch by myself in the future tho
How does Indiglo on digital Timex compare to Illuminator Casios?
By my knowledge they are identical.
Just different terms because of different companies like Seiko solar vs Eco-drive.
Did that user that was getting a penisquartz hat ever get the hat?
Post watches.
That's a man of taste right here! I get all of my watches from Palau
Are you the guy who fucked up the royale?
Good work on the other mods though.
I have been thinking of machining stainless steel cases for Casio watches.
That is a bit too much out of my range atm and would require too much investing sadly.
>have you gotten a new strap?
No not yet, I am going to see if she likes it first. The original strap is brittle as hell, I can tell it will break in a week of normal wear.
I am going to see which of these she likes, if either then go from there. If she does not like either of these I will find her something else. She is always asking about what things were like in the 90s and likes 90s stuff from when I was her age, so I think she might appreciate one of these. I only want to get her NOS stuff though.
IMO if she wore either that timex or the spooky swatch she would get a lot of compliments on them
Is Tudor poster a cuckold? I mean in spirit. No way he has a wife of course, but in spirit he seem like one who would be a cuckold since he love cuckoldry porn so much. He is after all a white male, but he collects a vast amount of black on white porn with cuckolds. Honestly this is how I imagine the average fake Tudor owner too. He certainly fits the profile.
>How does Indiglo on digital Timex compare to Illuminator Casios?
They are about the same. I have seen casio in stores but never used it daily. This timex in the bathroom with the lights off looks really great. a million times better than the shit light that comes on some casios
No, I only download blacked porn ironically.
"sure"
What makes you say that?
Wrist shots on gf required.
>IMO if she wore either that timex or the spooky swatch she would get a lot of compliments on them
Has anyone complemented your watch ever?
You enjoy cuckoldry so much, it just make sense. It's when all the parts of a watch just make sense together, the information we have on you just fits into this profile. You are a cuckold in spirit who watches blacked porn in his sparetime.
I feel this is all a move so we start to hate the tudor brand, kind of like what happened with nomos, people went to reddit to find those oversized lugs on skinny wrists and made a collage of them, naturally making us feel unpleasant with the brand itself.
