The true is that when You once try affordable Chinese microbrand watch You will absolutely never ever go back to anything from Orient, Seiko, Citizen etc. below 250 bucks or even 500. I am not talking about homage/clonage but some originally designed models of Boderry, Phoibos or San Martin. They really kick ass of famous producers and give You lot of quality and super cool feeling with nice look. But still lot of people rather wear logo or "heritage and history" then just having fun and enjoying having nice piece of steel on the wrist.

@@ChronometerCheck please tell me we're the difference between any Invicta Rolex look alike and those mentioned replicas is... I'm not talking about super clones that people use to rip off other people. What I'm annoyed about is that those fake watches today have better quality them many watches people buy daily for way more money. (Don't understand me wrong I don't mind your view of disliking replicas) but for example the moon swatch a watch even swatch employees call plastic waste costs 250$ and I can get a fully functioning automatic stainless steel watch with a special focus on detail because it's supposed to look way more expensive then it is for half the price. Even though Invicta might have a "sub" for around 100€ with a 8215 movement it's still not as clean as the fake because Invicta knows it's selling you a cheap watch and doesn't mind you noticing it after a few quick looks the fake on the other hand is supposed to make you feel like you have the real deal (although in this price segment their still way off from an Original Rolex).

@@ChronometerCheck and to the degrading the industry that's also kind of a hoax... All those companies claiming they lose millions because of fakes are lying to your faces... It's not like a person who has the money to buy a Rolex and really wants one buys a fake. It's the people who can't afford it who are most likely to buy the fake. So it's not like they lose a customer. (At least when it comes to high value items, when it comes to basic fashion like tshirts from basic brands it's something else) the only thing they can really be pissed about is other people making money with their designs and that's a valuable point but still especially high fashion brand like Rolex don't make any penny less because of replica watches. I personally don't mind fakes as long as the person wearing it is being real about it and I know many people who think that way.
