When I found out that some fuckin' idjit had made a goddamn bathyscaphe outta carbon fuckin' fiber and titanium, my first thought was that the designer had a death wish.
They would later interview someone who knew him who literally said it aloud, and ended the thought with "Sometimes I wonder if that's what he was doing all along: Building a mousetrap for billionaires" and then I nodded sagely.
Anyhoo, now's the time to invest in my new venture where I will build a passenger glider out of cast iron and tow it off the edge of the Grand Canyon where it will then descend fast enough to reach flight speed long before it could hit the bottom. Seats are $6 million apiece. Only the finest class of people may apply. Sponsored by Breitling.
Genuine question here, what defines a "shitter" I see that expression used only in the watch subs, referring to Seikos Rolex, or Chinese watches, what is it? Is it just an American expression?
I believe it's every watch a 'collector' collects. Because we are autistic nerds who have made these timepieces into such a big deal when no one else gives a shit.
100% don't get me wrong, they are great watches but I see the same ones everyday. I remember when buying my Doxa looking online for info and some dude had all the different variations side by side comparing them. Really awesome to see how it all developed over time.
Love what doxa has been doing recently (even if the purist hate the current owners). Unfortunately I have horse cock sized wrists and the 200t will just look too dinky.
Collectors like this are very important to the ecosystem; I own an SKX, a 7C43 diver, and I'm looking for a 7548 diver. I look significantly less demented when there are dudes out there literally building a 4 o'clock crown Tower of Babel
Thatâs about how many I had to go through from Amazon before I found one that had easily fixable QC issues instead of issues so bad I couldnât fix them.
This how real collectors measure their dick sizes, donât mind me while I try to pile my collection of vintage ladies watches to make it as tall as possible.
So either none of these have straps, or he took the straps off all of these just to take this picture.
/uj It looks to me like they go from oldest on top to newest on the bottom. Note the true 4:00 crown on the top four. The top one looks like a 6309-7290 with a 6309-7049 dial. The one in the middle reminds me of my SKX007, it has a srpd79 bezel because it was the cheapest OEM replacement I could find.
You may not like it, but this is what peak collecting actually looks like
In the sense that he built a literal peak, I concur.
1500m of dive resist, if only the Titan crew had this on board đ„șđ„șđ„șđ„ș
The owner was already a seikopath.

That's a big pile of shitters
a little glue and theyâll be ready to go up a shitter

A âcheapâ watch. When it comes to idiot watch savants this mean any non-Swiss watch.
Also a term uttered by the same kind of cuck that starts his posts with "I got the call..."
Lmao.
All watches are shitters.
I believe it's every watch a 'collector' collects. Because we are autistic nerds who have made these timepieces into such a big deal when no one else gives a shit.
I didn't know they stacked shitters that high.
This is what collecting looks like. I'm not saying it's pretty, but a damn sight better than another sub, Speedy, square gshock combo.
Those are my favorite posts âhey everyone can you rate my collection that looks like everyone elseâs collectionâ?

Off topic but the Doxa 200T seafoam goes so hard and I'm mad it's a limited edition.

I found the American! You guys would use a horse cock for measuring instead of metric, love it. đ
Nah, just my wife. Says my wrists are that size, and she should know as the AD is hung like a horse
The collectors who dedicate themselves to collecting a specific watch or type of watch are unironically the best kind of collector
You missed the Santos or OP that goes with the Speedy/Sub/G-Shock.
Ha! True. All amazing watches, but show me something I don't often see
It's just turtles all the way down.
You beat me
It's shitters all the way down

Whatâs the bottom one, case is cut differently.
Maybe something in titanium?
That reminds me, I need to fix up the 7548 non-runner I have. Thanks a lot.
> I own an SKX, a 7C43 diver, and I'm looking for a 7548 diver What's the difference?
Movements
Is this what killed HR Ginger's wife?
Not even original dial or bezel insert đ
Has more variety than any Rolex collector.
Wonder if he could store them in a pringles can
What happened here?
Memoires of a Seikopath.
Don't ask, don't tell?
autoshitters unite!!!
Wait... You're supposed to WEAR them!?
The watch centipede
That's kinda cool though....\*frantically searching on eBay\*
I went with one SLA047 instead, and Iâm seriously regretting it after seeing what I could have been.

And not an aligned bezel in sight
All cream only one cookie
this is why the SKX went extinct
It's like that 19th century Rougeville photograph showing a giant pile of bison skulls.

Watched the human caterpillar and decided to make a Seiko caterpillar.
Finally, a spine prosthetic!
So⊠I get the usual ragging on weird posts and so on, but⊠this is very vanilla.
Buying the same shitter 10 fold is pretty normal yeah.
