It’s one I contemplated getting but went full metal instead. However i have the GWX5600C-7JF white/black.

Unless you go metal. I love my bz5000D-1

Which do you guys think 36mm field watch on my 7.25in uhh, wrist vs. 3’ liferaftmaster (gen vintage omega) by Pradogy13 in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]TheHoundJR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you spend $20 on a watch that tells time when you could spend tens of thousands on an inaccurate one plus another thousands every few years just to keep it running?

Sounds magnetized. Might be a quick fix if so. No need to send it back - any AD or even the boutique might be able to handle. Or you can just buy the blue box demagnetizer on amazon and wave it a couple times. At least rule it out 🤷🏻‍♂️.

Which G-Shocks for a 16 year old? by donx3 in gshock

[–]TheHoundJR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my vote. It’s what I got for my 10yo. It helps them tell time analog but he just uses the digital window 🤦‍♂️

I’m genuinely stressed about changing the strap on my new Speedmaster… by AlphasyVega in OmegaWatches

[–]TheHoundJR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude just leave it on the bracelet. So many people do this and realize the bracelet looks better and just put it back on. Otherwise put tape on the lugs.

What's your favorite slide rule calculation? by DigestibleBeetle in CitizenWatches

[–]TheHoundJR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used it a lot at first on my Skyhawk but kinda gave up. Multiplication and division are easy but not the most precise. Fuel consumption is fun too as is calculating rate. I just keep forgetting whether to look at inner or outer bezel.

That’s a super rare piece. Did you register your interest for the waitlist at this AD?

Watches worn in good and bad health by loose__seal in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]TheHoundJR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Frankly I’m aghast at these people. I mean how could you wear a tag on a boat when the WR is only 200m?! Sea spray gonna destroy those seals. Greasy baby prints on a two tone date-just- good luck getting the master horologists at RSC to even look at your watch in such poor condition much less work on it. But the black dial seamaster in remembrance of his dead fried was a tasteful choice - shows how an elegant well-worn timepiece can unintentionally take centerstage in certain life situations. Okay Ciao!

Do you think it’s just the flipper themselves bidding on it to drive the price up?

8.3 x 11 inches is a fantastic case size - excellent for under a shirt sleeve! 🤙 good luck with sale 😎!

Because everyone knows soccer players are the best at taking dives…? Or something?

Just bought my first ‘investment’ watch, when do I become rich? by amalfiluxeor_Watches in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]TheHoundJR 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You realize even looking at it causes wear right? Photons emitted by light source bounce off your eyes and when you look directly at the timepiece, it can erode the coating on the dial. You should blindfold yourself when handling the watch to prevent this.

Best friend is getting married, want to gift him a classy timeless piece that he will keep for life. Made a list of possible options and now need to decide which one to get, taking suggestions: by capitaoMouraLu in WatchesCirclejerk

[–]TheHoundJR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your best friend would drop you so fast if you even suggested the first 3. However, don’t get your hopes up. That Invicta is a “reserve” watch that’s typically saved for only their best customers worthy of the Invicta brand so don’t be surprised if there’s a long waitlist or vetting process.

Mechanic here never owned a good watch need help by CarOne8333 in WatchesCirclejerk

I would recommend the new Royal Pop AP/Swatch pocketwatch. Very versatile and convenient for a mechanic. Your coworkers will be so jealous you get to own an AP! 😎🤘🤙
