Should clarify it is indeed all the fake markings and useless hand that disqualify it. I have a gj16034 that I like VERY much. I just wish China would make CHINESE watches and give the fake crap a pass. Seiko's perpetual calendar has much the same look, a functioning chronometer, a functioning calendar for the next century and only costs $30 more than this on Joma. Sure it's a quartz (with a hardlex...), but it's an honest quartz and a cool looking watch. Beats this, hands down, every day, all day. I will happily buy more Guanqin products but will choose from those that don't pretend to be something they're not.

@PerthWAtch 5 жыл бұрын

Thanks for that bro - good comment about the false dials and functions, which I agree with. Especially bad are watches that advertise open heart movements as "tourbillons" I think, but this is much in the same pattern. Which Seiko perpetual calendar is that one? I'd like to take a look :)

@navajasrs2402 5 жыл бұрын

I was wrong two ways about the price. I thought this was a $90 watch, it's only $60 right now, and I thought the Seiko was $120. It's $130 currently, $140 for the black. www.jomashop.com/seiko-watch-spc131.html?nosto=productpage-nosto-1&refSrc=SE-SPC133 I standby the sentiment however: I'd rather buy one of those than wear what I think amounts to costume jewelry. I hope I don't aound snobbish, I'm really not. I just don't like artificial pretty much anything. I own a Guanqin and a Cadisen, and I don't just enjoy them "for what they are" I consider them a favorble part of my collection. I want to see more Chinese originals. They have a good thing going here buying NH35-38s and wrapping them with quality materials. They just need to dust off some design skills. With places like GearBest and AliExpress, they don't have to confine themselves to forgeries and make-believe.

The Chinese come up with truly awful names, which is a pity because they're getting very good, especially 1:1 copies of the major expensive brands. I own a couple of Megir's, and I think MEGIR is one of the better efforts at naming. It doesn't immediately stand out as being a Chinese name, and therefore has a little more cred. Plus, they're pretty good watches for the price...
