Watches

[HellioN]

Talking down about expensive basically hand made watches on a website dedicated to the NEO•GEO...
If you don't care for them that's fine but this is the LAST place to say something about expensive things that none of us really need.

One day I wouldn't mind having a speedy or a Tudor Black Bay Bronze.

I can tell because I've seen some pixels in my time.

Can't go wrong with Tudor tbh

First good watch should always be a speedmaster - no question

I’m kinda partial to the Day-Date for my first Roley:

Kern, which size Speedy do you prefer?

I've got my eye on an Oris 80th annv bronze with green dial. I think it will be really cool to see the patina change over the years.

Wataru, that day-date is nice. I've always wanted a Don Johnson gold Presidential

Expensive watches is a good protection against inflation .. I can’t afford a new watches as their price has gone up substantial especially Rolex. Also crypto ballers are pushing to audemars & pateks , second market price are way above the retail price.

If the most expensive things you cherish are video games - you have a problem

Video games vs Jimmy Saville jewelry...both pretty gay.

Are they seriously successful though?

You must like what you like because those are all very similar. White and Black.
Have you considered buying some straps to mix things up?

 

[kernow]

I had a few straps on the speedy but I'm not too bothered tbh

Rolex always look better on original bracelet

Thoughts on that new Apple Watch? I have a wide wrist so really tempted by 49mm—it’s like an apple big pilot

The Ultra? It may be the fugliest Apple product yet. It looks like it will be a big benefit for its audience.

I have a 3 and don’t see much reason to upgrade to the 8.

I just can't do the "smart watch" thing.
They just seem to lack... A soul.

It’s definitely more “rugged” looking, I’ll give you that. But bigger screen and battery are enticing. Also the ability to check my ovulation

For “those who ovulate”

There are some good hybrid smart watches now. I have a Fossil Hybrid HR which does what I need. It's my go to when I'm travelling around the country.
Garmin and others have some nice stainless ones if you want something more rugged looking.

As for the new Apple Watch, I like it as an activity or sport watch, but for business or casual it's fugly as fuck.

I don’t like it because I don’t understand its usage. I’m not going to count my steps I don’t need to know my heart rate and I think it’s too ugly to wear as a regular fashion watch. It’ll just be another thing for me to charge.

I tried messing with one for a day and just realized I’d rather pull my phone out to do most of my stuff on there instead of on my wrist.

My cousin who’s on the phone most of the day for work said it’s useful to quickly look at your risk to see who’s calling but I don’t do that kind of shit so it makes no sense for me.

I can't tell you how many times I've been to lunch with someone, and had to stop and ask if they needed to go somewhere. Because they just kept looking at their damn smart watch. Turns out they are just reading notifications that keep coming in on their smart watch. It's an appalling habit because they do it in the middle of dinner or a conversation as well. My mind instinctively thinks because they keep checking their watch, they need to be somewhere....

Smart watches are like CGI cartoons or fiberglass boats.

TBH I think the Apple Watch looks good as an everyday watch. At the very least it's much better than those Fitbits or the monstrosities that Samsung has put out.
