Got a free Moto 360 v2 from my sis. She uses iPhone and this is Android Wear, so she can't really use it.

Should I give it a try? So far I haven't found it useful at all. And it's too thick and cumbersome.

This thread is for watches, not wrist mounted tracking devices, sorry.

I used to have a Pebble Steel.

Ended just using it to tell time. As a notification system it is pointless since if you're being notified of something, you want to know details. And that screen isn't big enough to drill down into the content.

So I would just end up pulling out my phone from my pocket, which was dumb as fuck.

I can however envision it being useful if you are the type of person who cannot have their phone on your person at all times / hear / feel the vibrations.

Guys, what do you thunk of this watch? Can it be worn casually or is it a dress watch only?

On my Casio the seconds hands align just fine in some areas but not all. Is this normal??

Yes

The Master Ultra Thin line is a "business casual" line so you can use it in most normal situations but it's still basically a dress piece so you would not wear it at bars, during sporting events, etc.

Jaeger LeCoultre watches in general are less high brow than Patek, Vacheron, etc. and are passable in less formal events whereas the higher end stuff would really be inappropriate.

Don't let the phuckers tell you otherwise.

one of the best bang for buck watches in the price range.

it can work outside of dress situations.

What strap goes with a blue dial?

Orange

Depends on the style of watch and type of blue dial.

these illustrations are so cringey and pedestrian

You're right but there's really no other neat/cool watch artwork.

It's a great watch. And yeah you can wear it anytime.

Basic bitch first auto, I heard you should toss the strap it comes with and don't want a leather one in this weather

I really admire your ability to ignore the ugliness of your watches. They seem to make you happy even though they are some of the worst version of their particular models.

Watch crown is not working properly. I have a Casio quartz analog watch. I used to be able to adjust the date and day by pulling it into half position, but that does nothing now

>Chink
Just talking about the wall of China, this is a genuine watch, not a replica like Tudor poster

so your claim 1. can't be qualified, and 2. likely makes 'her' a him (a trap)

we don't judge here. we like real watches, and real people.

thanks.

My post was not about her being a trap or about her sexuality or how lithe and nubile my teen gf is, but about the technology of the horological significance of the 1996 TIMEX IRONMAN

please keep the focus on watches and horology

I am a six foot five inch tall guy with 9 inch wrists (unironically). I am in my 30s and not very good looking. I met her via friends I made in Alcoholics Anonymous. The program of AA is weirdly a good place to meet people of different demographics. I have friends in AA that are 75 year old black men and friends that are teenage white girls, it's weird how good of a program it is for just meeting lots of people.

So the answer is basically drink a lot for a lot of years and ruin your life and you can get a cute teen gf too!

the funniest thing about him is that he has no real money and he's fucking physically massive.

so he's stuck with actual shitters. no dress watches will ever properly fit him. that beautiful king seiko you have there would look like a babies watch on him.

I'm genuinely happy that you enjoy your shitters but I really have to say, you have the worst possible taste imaginable, like holy fuck could you buy anything more ugly? Probably yes because there's no limit to how atrocious shit that makes normal people puke just seems to attract you like a lamp a fucking mosquito except you're carrying shittaste millions of times worse than malaria that the mosquito does. Really, holy fucking shit man. Now normally I would tell you to kys yourself which would be beneficial to the world but I won't. Because somehow, in your fondness for the disgusting, you're pure. Like a 30 year old man wearing skull signet or necklace, you wear shit that caters to your absolutely abominable taste and you enjoy it, even if whole world laughs at you, I'll smile upon you.

Are you surprised or something? All the permatrolls have the shittiest watch collections, got made fun of here, and are all trying to kill /wt/ because they're fucking bootyblasted faggots.

Do Swatch watches still make that creaky plastic sound at the hinge when you move the strap?

I say.... is this a gay homosexual styling cue?

>permatrolls
/wt/ doesn't have any.

Mine doesn't, but it's a pretty soft strap.
