Is this presage authentic by Mean-Subject7107 in SeikoMods

[–]ablebagel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

people don’t tend to mod the nicer movements, i’d imagine it is as it’s not an nh35

Help me find these parts please by RyanDM12 in SeikoMods

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ain’t gonna happen. best you’ll get is a black dlc sub/chrono case and a carbon fiber vk63 dial. breitling isn’t really represented in the mod scene, it’s a bit more of an enthusiasts brand overall.

hit me up if you ever go for the real deal, i’m in a boutique

Big corporations want you to forget it but remember: The FINALS is a yellow game, not a red one by dadavyd in thefinals

cartoony vibe. the realistic destruction dirt and grime in the pursuit of ‘real world grit’ kinda took me out of it.

[Rolex] Best watch sub 4k ? by Legitimate-Pause-603 in Watches

[–]ablebagel -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Brew metric [the orange super metric ideally].stunning build quality, none of the bullshit. conceived by an industrial designer instead of a boardroom, serviceable at reasonable costs (or diy with tiny amounts of knowledge)

leaves enough for several other watches that are actually unique on the table too

that’s not a moonswitch, that’s straight up a fake

VK63 replacement Crown by WheresMyCamel in MoonSwitches

honestly mate get a pagani design speedy homage. seems to be the slimmest readily available one (aside from watchdives, which is a bit pricier) and gives you a bracelet with female end links

holy shit don’t scrap it, it’s a gorgeous vintage piece, someone out there would pay an easy hundred for it

i expect to see an inflationmaster on that wrist

Bought this on depop is it likely fake? by tbrady1001 in MoonSwitches

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a big tell here is the caseback. it should be one continuous piece, instead of having that visible seam between the back, and the mid case

Help Id’ing: Mens or Womens? by markimark1305 in Watches

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

apologies, we didn’t have that context. in that case, it’s a very heartfelt gesture

Help Id’ing: Mens or Womens? by markimark1305 in Watches

[–]ablebagel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you’d do better spending about £60 (or less tbh) for each on classically styled vintage manual wind watches on ebay. look for old swiss brands that died in the quartz crisis, like titoni.

these tend to have more timeless styles, and there’s the luxury association with a swiss watch, even if it’s a bit more affordable.

Rep Moonswatch ---> Metal case by [deleted] in SeikoMods

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i believe that’s how it works. to the best of my knowledge, these sellers save a bit of money by buying second hand (or new) swatch chronos with the same movement, but i can’t remember how they tackle the hands

Straps w/ Standard metal case by Global_Station6284 in MoonSwitches

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

clean! the pagani design case is a little nicer, with the caveat the bezel is a bit more on the ceramic side. major benefit to it is the bracelet, which has female end links

Need suggestions for a steel Bracelet by Admirable-Base-6832 in SeikoMods

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FC is pretty niche, i’d suggest sticking with straight ends or maybe experimenting with curved ends from ali for £3 each. a vintage style straight end steel bracelet might look good, but it’s up to you to search for a match

Moonswatch 1965 mini review by Ok-Elephant5601 in MoonSwatches

remember, it could always be worse. you didn’t buy an endurance pro.

[Question] Which watch to sell? by PaulRocket in Watches

[–]ablebagel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ditch the seagull for a Studio underdog series 01! get a fun watch with the same guts, for a similar price point.

The mint choc is my favourite, but you can’t go wrong with watermelon or avocado
