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

Yeah, that was the first show I've ever seen not debranded watches in. Usually, it's like pic related.

Wore this shitter to the pool today. I have a few watches I regret buying, but I've been too lazy to go through the hassle of selling them so maybe I should just start wearing them occasionally again.
It's honestly not a bad watch and it's pretty good quality for the price, if it wasn't such a ripoff design and if it wasn't oversized it would be pretty great.

It's 42mm. I actually just saw that they now offer a 39mm version which is neat. It looks like they got rid of the aluminum bezel though, which is a shame because Steinhart's ceramic bezels are shit quality.
I could sell it

On a watch worth several thousand dollars you pay someone to do it for you if there is any question to your ability. Polishing is not some kind of amazingly hard thing to do but if you have never done it you should not try on a watch you care about. Kind of like painting a car, not rocket science but you need experience
