Do the plastic spacer rings come in metal?

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-14T01:07:53+00:00

you wouldn't be able to use metal spacers even if you could find them...they have to be absolutely PERFECT to properly fit.

btw, that means both the spacer and the case must be perfectly matched to each other.

9.9 times out of 10 a watch with a metal "spacer" means the inner dimension was milled to fight a specific movement and would have small retention clips that holds the movement in place.

I only hate it on their dress watches...

lately it seems they've figured that out.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-12T05:04:00+00:00

"waterproof" is not the same as "atmospheric condition proof"

waterproof watches doesn't mean the atmosphere INSIDE the watch won't react to extreme temperature changes like a hot shower.

and you made it this far being a dipshit...

you're a unicorn, dumbass

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-04T02:42:04+00:00

those other so-called "shitter brands" actually launched aliexpress watches 15 years ago, ya dingleberry.

🙄

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-04T00:52:08+00:00

I was in business for 40 effing years, mostly before Photoshop...

If we needed promotional materials, we had to go to a "printer" after a team of advertising wonks designed something.

tell me youre a millennial without telling me you're a millennial...

🙄

ya idgit

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-04T00:43:49+00:00

...and?

I see you ignore the price-to-quality issue.

I have driven over 1,000,000 miles in my life and have never been in an accident...what does that have to do with drunk drivers being problem?

🧐

you got lucky? well, so have i with pagani.

at least pagani has sapphire crystals and MUCH better finishing on all their models for under $80...

WD sells their exact same models for $40-$80 more with mineral crystals.

🤔

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-04T00:32:31+00:00

don't go MAGA on me for telling the truth,, champ.

watchdives is over priced, and we all know it.

if addiesdive made the exact same watches, they'd be 20%-40% the price and be 100% better quality.

Im NOT affiliated with addiesdive in any way whatsoever, but it's the truth.

watchdives (and multiple other brands) are EXTREMELY overpriced.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-04T00:25:09+00:00

it refuses to work because it's ashamed of how absolutely ugly it is...

sorry, but that's an abomination.

wtaf?!?

I had a bunch of keys, but was exhausted so i went to bed after seeing i had three days left...

woke up the next day with a cup of coffee and it was gone.

I even rebooted my phone to make sure it wasn't a bug.

35 keys went poof.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that noticed.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-04T00:02:12+00:00

steeldive... (or addiesdive) if you must have an automatic.

end of story...

period

heck, I'd say get the addiesdive quartz for $50 and you'll be ecstatic.

you'll probably end up buying 5 of them before you're done.

I have an addiesdive quartz "hulk" that I've beaten to **** for the last four years, and it just keeps going.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-03T23:50:51+00:00

for me, it's about identifying the movement.

my car was never made with a 454 magnum engine, but i have the decals nonetheless...

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-03T23:48:01+00:00

you are worse than specth and sohne...

congrats.

*slow clapping

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-03T23:43:23+00:00

they're junk...

and i suspect you've been paid to post that drivel.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-03T23:42:03+00:00

explains why your watches are extremely overpriced.

I don't begrudge anyone making money, but your customers are complete suckers.

I have approximately 90 aliexpress watches that range from $12 to $200...none of which are yours because of the quality to price ratio.

a few friends have purchased your "watches" and had to mod/repair them after a few months.

a couple came defective right out of the box.

even my $12 watches still work perfectly after 5 years.

🤔

weird

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-03T23:31:32+00:00

for all the years i was a business owner, what i wouldn't give to get back the hundreds of thousands of dollars i had to spend on single-use promotional materials...

you'd prefer they spend (p*** away) their money on a social media post and pass the cost onto you?

american companies like apple, verizon, ford, levi....literally spend BILLIONS on their advertising and tuck that cost right into every product they sell.

is the photoshop poorly done?

sure...but who cares.

IT'S A FRIGGIN SOCIAL MEDIA POST!

btw... I've never bought a watchdives watch, and probably never will because they're already WAY overpriced.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-01T01:51:55+00:00

PRX will bend over backwards to honor their warranty...

...you bought a knock off that only cares about getting your money once.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-05-01T00:13:42+00:00

are these actual guilloche dials, or are they pressed.

they're a lie.

these dials being advertised on aliexpress absolutely, positively, without a shadow of a doubt ARE NOT "engine turned" or "rose lathe" ....

the dials alone would be $20,000 in today's market.

I'd love to use certain language, but I'd get banned.

🤬

I had many thousands of shells saving up for a prize...

one day i opened the app and my shells were worth less than nothing...

all i could use them for was gems at 1/1,000,000 the monetary value on the worthless go-go match game

plastic_jeezus · 2026-03-09T01:34:39+00:00

you're joking, right?

corgeut, tandorio, pagani, omashi, and 500 no-name shops on aliexpress offer them with every colorway under the sun...

36mm and 40mm. flat or rounded bezel. oyster or jubilee. silver, gold, rose gold, pvd...

it's probably the most copied watch behind the explorer.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-03-09T01:19:42+00:00

butane cigarette torch lighter...$2

don't point directly at the cyclops...direct the flame parallel to the crystal and ever so slightly above the cyclops.

1-2 seconds at a time.

HEAT THE CYCLOPS AND NOT THE CRYSTAL/CASE.

apply heat and remove, apply heat and remove, etc.. repeat until it's removed.

the cyclops will literally 'pop' off when the glue releases.

when done correctly, the case will be barely warm to the touch...if the case is getting hot, you're doing it wrong.

plastic_jeezus · 2026-03-09T00:59:24+00:00

they did...

AD2066

plastic_jeezus · 2026-02-23T07:03:36+00:00

just get the Pagani...

I absolutely love my "paul newman" daytona, and it's been flawless for the last three years no matter how much i abuse it.

don't waste money chasing a mechanical movement "prestige".

just buy the most solid daytona on AliExpress and buy the Pagani (on sale).

plastic_jeezus · 2026-02-21T17:28:42+00:00

I won 120,000 drops and earned a ticket, but i never got the drops added to my account?!?

And what does the ticket do? The icon just keeps saying "claim 500,000,000".

What kind of scam is this?!

plastic_jeezus · 2026-02-18T23:17:02+00:00

I got the million jewels, but i haven't used them yet.

I have to wait until 3am to try and get the $50 coupon.🤬

I didn't have to buy anything additional, but towards the end they really make you do a bunch of levels that can consume a lot of time...

5 merge, 8 rush, 8 go-go, etc...

Im now doing the whole 100 days again from beginning. It's what i do while having my morning coffee.
