Thats a surprising amount of detail.

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

It's honestly the best and least pretentious option among fine watches.

Used my Samsung Gearfit 2 on a 50km ride up and down the Gold Coast. Tracked my Heartrate, speed, distance, cals, and safely controlled my music and texts.

Who woulda thunk you need to actually "excercise" to "get" smartwatches....

You had like a dozen encouraging posts in the last thread. Do you want us to call it a shitter?

They are not shitters user

I am deeply disapointed i couldnt capture my watch, bike and top-less girls in the one exposure :/

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.

Lol
Kys stupid reddit soyko suckboi

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

Not enough buzzwords, try again wristlet.

i like the way they look

That's just you sell something on Yahoo JP if you just want your price for it, rather than an auction. Think Buy It Now listings on ebay.

If Rolex ever releases a DD in 38mm. This baby is going bye bye.

rolex has several daily drivers in 38mm and under user

>get 38mm watch
>it's actually fucking enormous because lug to lug it's 50 fucking mm
You retarded assholes seem to conveniently never mention this, spent 3k on this fucking thing and now it looks retarded on me because there's a slight overhang

Is this OK? Should I buy it?

A 38mm watch with lug to lug of 50mm would look ridiculous, I don't know how you can miss that.

Do Seikos start spamming the report button whenever anyone says something they don't like?

They sometimes let you custom upload pics they print on watches, I had some hurtcore printed on one once that they didn't catch

wtf

one of my grails is unironically a Nomos

Are these photoshopped?

What other straps go well with this? Would a regular leather band look funny? I assume any kind of NATO would look good

How do you adequately polish brushed steel bands without destroying the finish?

>how do I remove scratches without removing the scratches that I want
think about what you just said..

That is the worst looking omega chrono I have ever seek, is this a joke?

Really how come?

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

2209 movement is pretty nice.

chrome plated though so into the bin it goes

(the rare solid gold ones are pretty cool though)

Where can I cop this?
