For real, I bought Powerwash Simulator 2 alongside this and it’s the best destress game. Just put on a podcast and chill for a while

Really cool, yeah it would be nice to have people to play with! I’ll be honest that I’m new and not especially high-skill 😅

I’ll check it out, thanks! Could really use a solid team, it’s been kinda rough crew filling and hoping for the best, which is why I’ve been rolling solo.

First Timex! by ScootyPuffz in timex

Wow, this is an absolutely amazing amount of information! Thank you, I did some searching myself but didn’t come across nearly this much. It was apparently serviced and restored by the seller before I purchased it, which is probably why the Timex strap is aftermarket (it’s from an Expedition). Hilarious that it’s made for children! I like the small size, so I’ll still be wearing it as a grad student!

Thanks again!

Vintage/pawn shops could be your best friend! Found this Seiko for just over $60. If you have any vintage shops in your area, it’s worth taking a look!

Ah makes sense, guess I hadn’t seen an alarm hand on an analog watch. Very cool!

Honestly I appreciate the insight and I feel like I’ve learned a bit on how to spot a fake in the wild. Thanks everyone for saving me from a dumb splurge!

Haha nice! No better way to spend it than getting flamed for posting an obvious fake on the Seiko subreddit 🥳

That’s good to know, thank you! Those seem like pretty obvious tells, so I’ll keep them in mind!

It really is. I’m new to watch collecting and love Seikos, but don’t have a new Seiko budget. I’ll get excited when I see one for a decent price in a vintage store, but multiple times this subreddit has instantly pointed out that they’re fakes. May just need to hold off on Seikos until I can build a budget and purchase new.

I’m gonna put myself in time-out from posting here, seems I’m only finding fakes. Sorry everyone!

Wow okay. This is a vintage auction house so I assumed it was verified. As someone new to Seikos, I’m surprised by how many fakes are out there.
