No, _that_ Seagull is a Nomos Tangente 35 knockoff
Mechanical watches = time keeping-meme equivalent of vinyl records?
Pretty much
They're also hundreds of years old while quartz is from the 1970s
""homage""
homage is a good meme
@unkoseizouki Look here http://www.manbuworld.com/c/quartz_0379 if you like anything
Those look too complicated for my liking
Thought so, but it's the only chink quartz watches of quality worth a damn I can think of
Why am I not rich
i mean you can just get a clone for 2-20 bucks
leddit cunters can afford that, you don't need to be rich. Though if you're sane you need to be rich
I guess a quartz tangente knockoff for about $25-40 would be your best bet
What should I look for in the description
Not quite sure what to search to get the decent ones. (i.e. actual steel case etc) Found a store on taobao and linked here once but can't remember the name of that either 🤔
If I like a watch
case material being uncoated steel
"subdials working" if it has any subdials
Not much else at your pricepoint. If you see "mineral crystal" or "miyota" those are good things
Normies can pay $130ish for watches with faux chrono pushers and/or subdials with glued on hands
oh shit i forgot about this server
I don't know jack shit about watches or anything luxury
But I throw up in my mouth a little bit everytime I see subdials like that
any of you own a chinkpad x220
x230
The lower end nomos knockoffs do come in that variety. Also just because the dial says nomos doesn't make it Bauhaus or at all related. Look at the styling (and materials) over what it says. Ideally it doesn't say anything at all.
i was a bit hasty with buying it
wanted a 3.0 port on my laptop
but got the i5
those docks any good
I don't have a dock for my memepad, but docks in general are very useful
x230 was probably my best purchase to this day. You won't regret buying a memepad
sturdy as they come?
There are some issues, like express card slots springs a little bit if you press on top of it but in general sturdier than a samsung or any other brand that's on the same price range
shits gonna be carried around a lot
gotcha
And it has a matte surface
Scratches won't show up that much
So good for carrying around
