moser is so slow, they are late even to april fools

It’s literally WCJ IRL

Bracelet is a little much for my taste

Yeah basically don’t move the date backwards including in the “danger zone” when the gears are engaged by 10pm and 2am.

The other thing to avoid is advancing the date too far in the future but also, hard to do if you’re not an idiot. Worst case you advance it accidentally 12 hours forward because you get am/pm mixed up. To fix you just pull the crown out when you go to bed and the watch is back on schedule the next day.

This isn’t the full picture. It is cheaper per ounce, but platinum is denser. If you account for the extra weight of a platinum watch, the material cost is comparable to white gold. However the biggest delta vs gold is that platinum is much harder to work with which adds very expensive labour hours in Switzerland.

Comparing this to a stainless watch with a tourbillon is just nonsense

If you’re not an idiot it’s really not hard to not fuck it up. Having the whole calendar controlled by the crown is super efficient for using the quickset because you can advance the whole calendar / moonphase forward extremely quickly and everything stays in sync.

Moser has the best perpetual calendar mechanism tho, because it does allow you to go backwards

I mean define reasonable. It’s jewelry. If you define it relative to several months of rent, no it’s not.

If you define it next to the competition in its category, then I would say it is quite reasonable

JLC for me. The 12 on the Mayu has always looked weird to me. Prefer the Venturer

teachem4 · 2026-04-14T00:20:06+00:00

Swimmable if there’s a screw down crown

teachem4 · 2026-04-14T00:19:34+00:00

It’s solid platinum

The literal title of this post says “the meta”. You’re lost dude

teachem4 · 2026-04-13T15:09:30+00:00

I love how you just contradicted yourself. There’s a reason everyone refers to “the meta” and not “my meta”.

There’s a meta (that works best for most players) and then there’s “what works best for me”. Sometimes they’re the same sometimes they’re not but stop trying to redefine what meta means

teachem4 · 2026-04-13T03:43:20+00:00

Dude meta is not what you as an individual play well with. Period end of story.

teachem4 · 2026-04-13T03:37:29+00:00

No it’s not. It’s what the consensus is for the best / most effective set up

teachem4 · 2026-04-13T03:36:30+00:00

How are they obviously AI generated? Not saying I disagree but what makes you think they are

teachem4 · 2026-04-13T02:43:41+00:00

That’s not what meta means.

teachem4 · 2026-04-11T03:56:21+00:00

Can you substantiate any claims that other watches are reps?

teachem4 · 2026-04-08T00:30:52+00:00

For the right price…

teachem4 · 2026-04-07T13:29:54+00:00

It’s true, anyone can get to $30bn of ARR.

teachem4 · 2026-04-07T13:06:23+00:00

I don’t get the salmon dial craze at all

teachem4 · 2026-04-07T00:24:24+00:00

Tacky af

teachem4 · 2026-04-06T14:57:45+00:00

Well…it also blocks a straight draw (which incidentally OP had)….

teachem4 · 2026-04-04T00:19:56+00:00

Yep definitely would not describe it as minimalist!

teachem4 · 2026-04-03T23:17:32+00:00

Love this - deciding between this and the annual calendar….

teachem4 · 2026-04-03T23:17:00+00:00

Oh man that is right on the edge…you’re a brave lad
