    above or below the wrist?

    lol ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I don't think that's what he meant ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ don't exaggerate ๐Ÿ˜‚ I understand the idea of a tight watch, well, not so tight that you feel "strangled", but tight enough so that it doesn't disturb and doesn't slide back and forth, possibly disrupting daily activities

    Preferred dials/ textures/ finish

    this model is not available in the replica industry either) even if it were, I don't really think that factories would reproduce it with such a refined dial as in the gen)

    Louis Vuitton: Einstein Automata timepiece

    lucky is the one who will have it after the auction. so much symbolism in this piece. Einstein fits perfectly into the concept. the operation of the watch is truly a work of art and the dial is fabulously meaningful and revealing. the rest (eyeball. togue) are just secondary elements. I don't...

    Fluted or smooth bezel Rx Datejust

    not sure about it..... though, the fluted one looks much more elegant and sophisticated... if you put them together and do a side-by-side comparison, the smooth one looks so mediocre. no one will even understand that you are wearing a luxury watch, even if it is a replica. with a fluted one...

    stainless steel vs rubber band. pls help me decide

    I think from the perspective of quality. rubber is ok, but not exceptional. steel is always steel and durability will never be compromised. in particular, you say that you want this watch for a long time, so you have to build it in such a way that each part is maximally durable and resistant...

    California dials in rep watches

    )))) for me, the california dial suggests that the watch manufacturer cannot decide between styles, and does not understand which target group to target))) idk bout the past and WW 2 stuff, but it seems that nowadays, the manufacturers who opt for this type of dial want to capture as large a...

    My impression of the gen 3235 watch movement

    I heard about many issues, all related to everything related to 32** mechanisms. so, I do not rule out that yours is not defective from maintenance, but rather from the factory. As far as I know, it is said that this series runs at a low amplitude and generates a slow running. Moreover, everyone...

    automatic rep stopped working

    is this exactly what we are talking about? (it's a random pic from the net) as far as I know, the automatic tend to stop if they are not worn for a long time, more than 2-3 days. have you had such cases? and how exactly "stopped"? only one hour marker, or all? or generally doesn't respond to...

    leather strap maintenance

    a neighbor recommended the leather conditioner to me a couple of years ago. different manufacturers make it, and they all make magic. Following the instructions, I apply the conditioner on both sides of the leather strap and leave it on for about 2 hours. after, I remove the excess and it looks...

    strap ruining it all in a watch

    what do you imagine a NATO strap to look like?! it's a quite popular type of strap and embraced and sought after by many people. It's a bracelet option for when you want the watch to have a more casual and comfortable style for lighter circumstances. besides, I don't understand your frustration...

    Quartz watches: seem the best to me lately

    I am also a fan of mechanical watches. I've gotten used to them for so long that it's as if the quartz ones don't even exist :D... but I admit that I'm tempted to try one... someone recommended me a Casio Oceanus and Wave ceptor some time ago. I didn't really listen to him at first, but the...

    how do you deal with scratches on your watches?

    actually, I didn't really wear the Hamilton for 2 years, more - occasionally. during half a year, I exploited omega rep more than hamilton in 2 years....so, it's a little true in what @Greg_B says

    how do you deal with scratches on your watches?

    no, it's not about vintage watches.. one is an omega rep and another is a Hamilton. I've had hamilton for 2 an' a half years, omega 4 half a year.... I thought the scratches were a defect in wstces, I didn't know they 'd have a certain value.... now that I read ur comments, I see things a little...

    how do you deal with scratches on your watches?

    how do you deal with scratches on your watches? 2 of my 316l stainless steel watches already have some scratches on them. I went on vacation with them last month and spent a lot of time on the beach. I rolled around in the sand a lot and didn't realize that the sand was actually scratching...

    vintage vs modern! help me figure it out!

    I don't really see much value in the vintage option either. I mean, I admit that it's valuable, that it's somewhat the original concept and stuff, but I look at it as nothing more than an object in the museum. I have not yet reached the stage where I run like crazy after such models. and I don't...
