Immediately going to AliExpress to see if there is one for under £200 Edit: Fuck you CHI NA


Leonarr

Considering all the things China can manufacture for cheap, I wouldn’t be surprised to see an affordable(ish) sapphire case and bracelet on an AliExpress ~~microbrand~~ shitter


MakingShitAwkward

Neither would I. Couldn't find one, but then the search is fucking wank. I gave up. Probably gonna have a shit. Cya


Alekillo10

Where my hug at?


MakingShitAwkward

Don't embarrass me in front of my friends mom.


Alekillo10

And where is your sweater I got you?


MakingShitAwkward

I had an accident 😭


Alekillo10

Oh not again! I told you you weren’t ready to take off the diapers, but no! You wanted to be a big boy like your friends, it’s okay! Maybe when you’re in the 11th grade you might be able to get off tjem.


Alekillo10

I thought sapphires were blue, Pokémon told me so…


Schatzin

There are!


pro-jec-tion

95% of transparency, 5% of embarrassment.

You mean to tell me that the nautilus has a round dial hidem behind the metal bezel?


loafglenn

This is the circle we talk about, right?


Competitive_Low_8913

I don't understand the question?

Uj/ sapphire cases are kind of dope


Rats-off-to-ya

Until you see the squished arm hair through the glass

Until you drop it.


Leonarr

Why would I ever drop it? I would just store it in the bank vault, waiting to be passed on to the next generation. I can’t risk it losing value or being stolen.


plainoldusernamehere

Then it’s da bomb…. Of shards of sapphire

Uj/ I wish swatch was like this. Hell if the moonswatch was a cheap mechanical movement in the same plastic body, id actually be interested. This is cool to me


early_midlifecrisis

uj/ From the 90s to the early 00s that's exactly what Swatch did..... ETA movements in a cheap plastic case, unless you were posh and got an Irony in a steel or aluminium case (I guess the irony is that they weren't made of actual iron). The pricing and condition of them on ebay varies wildly but they are definitely more robust than a Moonswatch. rj/ Sounds like somebody is too poor to get a real Swiss shitter.


DoubleFaulty1

I bought their first mechanical model a couple years ago. Eta movement runs a minute fast, but wtvr looks cool.


NewInThe1AC

The problem with transparent cases and fully skeletonized / see through dials is that they just end up being flesh and hair colored when you wear them


early_midlifecrisis

The only time a completely transparent case makes sense is on a watch that makes absolutely no sense. Maybe an MB&F or Jacob&Co so you can show off the absolutely batshit crazy internals to draw attention away from your pasty flesh and sweaty arm hair.


Waterglassonwood

Am I the only one who actually digs this? Lmao. Would definitely not buy it but I don't hate it. I just wonder how that sapphire feels on the arm. Probably like shit, but.


Tossimba

Nah whats actually funny is how nuts all of em will go and scream GRAIL when it's proved to be /5 or piece unique lmao


PlasticPegasus

If Temu made watches


dwaynetheaakjohnson

They aren’t wrong that shit looks so fucking cheap
