The Watch Thread - Part 12

[kyteo79]

Manual winding
9S64
Static +5～-3
Actual +10～-1

so far these 4 months, i'm tracking it between 2.1 - 9.2
recently consistently around 7.5 - 7.7

I've emailed seiko JP and they say its within specs of +10~-1

got too many mechnical watches to manage now, so I let it run to a stop when not wearing, which is why I prefer watches that can manual wind, and not those that are automatic only

next servicing ask them to try tune it for +5/6 sec specs lah then you get a solid manual winding watch.

for 7 seconds you getting a very solid manual wind watch

maybe don't care so much - one day they will realise, and that epiphany will be far more meaningful because of having wasted money on DW.

No self respecting man should ever wear a DW or any brands that sits along the line.
I have seen well dressed man, and i repeat man, in a suit, wears a ***** dw.
like wtf

legit, my buddy girlfriend wears a DW, i say if you buy and wear u can go die. you don't deserve my friendship. lol
end up, the gf got him a fossil chrono (i help choose when we're in las vegas outlet stores) and a seiko chrono in singapore.
both quartz. but hey at least

paid more to secure luck number lah...

zenith is too ex locally ... a fan but poor service so sold liao.

please share about your zenith service experience.

GS all must send back japan for servicing. so far what's your experience been like?

 

[TeenTitan01]

GS ladies usually are quartz and very small, so in the entire collection, only 2pcs she like, so of course go for the LE one

Anyway GS don't really focus much on ladies design, so I'm safe

She always complain men's design so many nice ones, but too big for her hands

bro cyberet so smart!

haha they can buy DW for all i care.
but a smarter consumer will go taobao and get the same exact, somemore sterile dial.
at 10% of the original price.

DW is for boys la. If you're a working adult, i think you deserve better.

but i gotta say, the founder of DW is a smart man. those who buy it, not really

LOL.

N to bro gx84...nomos i tot of also. But too ex. Thats y i ask for price ard 200ish.

 

[TeenTitan01]

cannot like that say ... rolex owner beh song later ...

cannot like that say i anti social ...

just put me that i no money no taste and no blink ...

what i meant to say is rolex is "too safe, too boring". you don't need a "me too" watch, you prefer something "less common" that fellow connoisseurs will nod, wink and smile in agreement.

@ cyberet:

there're quite a few GS ladies models: https://www.seiko-watch.co.jp/collections/en/gs/ladies
