I've picked up some micro brands. I can't rationalize spending thousands, when I can get a very nice micro brand with virtually the same quality for +/-$1000.

That may explain some of the luxury brands' decline lately. Micro brands' offer substantive competition.

Nice -- that is a lovely suggestion.
Something about the vertical placement of the subdials and the date window rubs me the wrong way.

...but it also led me to find this almost-beauty.
Although this one is way too busy. I wish it just had tick marks and not numbers. And the telemeter can go too.

have you been checking the prices of these?

and I would refer you to this post >>12063041

when i went to see watches in person there were some 2-3k ones that I liked on more than 20k whatever. It really is different in person.

Good options for 1k or less are seiko and sinn. Also quartz. Lots of watch people disdain quartz in favor of mechanical but that's because they're idiots. Peak quartz is like 1.5k-4k while that's mediocre mechanical but instead you pay for real things rather than history and status and prestige and other bullshit that's really prevalent in mechanical watchmaking.

Like, watches with some significant monetary value, depending on make, model and condition.

But those two you listed?
You can get the seiko, new, for not much more. Perhaps eurocuck taxes fuck you up, but that's no great saving.

Also, these are beater watches, so if the fuck that used them before you wore them as such and they're all beat up as shit, then obviously they're not worth it.

If they're in near pristine condition, sure, why not? Especially if you can't get a new one for say, only a third or less more wherever you are.

As it stands, I say don't bother.

They'll be cheaper and Vostok divers are surprisingly "good" (for what they are and what they cost).

What are some top tier options around the $800 range?

>> No.12065228

>>12065180
The sole purpose of watches today = status symbol

If your budget cannot reflect that of a status symbol you're better off going without.

Take that $800 buy a top end cell pbone

>>12065180
go on a good watch forum and find a previously-owned sinn or a damasko, nomos, stowa...

or a nice Seiko, you can find a Seiko with a nice finish/movement etc. for $800, again, make sure you're buying from a reputable seller on the forums.

What a load of crap! Watches are still the best way to check time. It take just a second to turn your wrist, as opposed to fishing your cell phone out of your pocket and taking it off sleep mode to check the time. Watches are worn for convince more than status. The fact is, the average person doesn't know the difference between an Oris or a Seiko. They might know what a Rolex Submariner is, but unless they are a connoisseur, most would see a similar Orient dive watch and assume it was a Rolex, and wouldn't know the difference between a hacking second hand and a sweep second hand. People who wear an expensive mexhanical/automatic watch should wear it for their own appreciation, because the vast majority of people just don't care what effing watch you are wearing!

I prefer a NATO strap on a dive watch. I never understood putting a leather strap on a watch that is designed for water use.

>> No.12065522

>>12065505
Yeah. That's what I was thinking about. Thanks
>>12065507
Kinda agree, but the thing is that nato is so overused now that I won't feel comfortable with it. It has the standard metal strap but I need to replace it anyway because it's coming with me hiking and mountaineering (inb4, because it's reliable and I don't have to worry about batteries).

I have a few Russian watches and now a female friend is interested in them too. She likes watches that are not too busy ('minimalist') and/or somewhat classy. What would you recommend, /fa/?

In watchmaking, "minimalist" is another word for "shit quality and lack of design"

Guys, i am new to watches. What brand do you recommend from 100 - 200 ? I can´t spend more than this. I prefer leather wristband.
I was thinking of Seiko, but they all have steel.

Thank you for any advice.

Nope. you need to save up. They did a re-release in the 90's or early 00's, so that's something you can get if you really want to work for it.

monsterwatches.nl (Dutch) has new Seikos for a reasonable price. There's also this guy http://www.ebay.com/usr/mountapo_merchant?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2754 in the Phillipines that I bought Seikos from that were great for the price. They may be put together from different watches, but who the fuck cares for those prices.
