The real takeaway from this is that everything is marketing. Just as you marketed yourself with the fake Rolex and the big office to project success - if you look deeper into this, the same could be said for Rolex. The brand is synonymous with wealth and luxury. The truth is, the superclones from China are at a point where the internals are interchangeable with the original. The difference between them is price and limits. The genuine ones are purposefully kept low in number, whereas the superclones can be mass produced. It’s basic supply and demand - you think you’re paying into exclusivity, and you are - but that exclusivity is itself a manufactured construct - they don’t have to be as limited as they are. It’s all marketing. Everything.

@ThatGuy-sc5rx Жыл бұрын

I've read that even seasoned watchmakers can have difficulty telling the difference even when they open up a clone

@watches-replica 10 ай бұрын

I couldn't agree more. China's production technology is constantly upgrading, and the difference between high-end replicas and genuine products is so small that even professional masters cannot tell the difference. I needed a finishing touch so I bought a Rolex Submariner in China for $400. I knew it was fake and the movement used was Japan’s Citizen 8215 movement, but I still spent the money because it gave me confidence. I am now also an agent for selling their products in our country. It gives me confidence and makes my life better. I have money now and can buy a genuine watch, but I don’t have it, I still have it (it has been working diligently for 5 years).

@ams914 9 ай бұрын

That's still not enough to meet demand though. That's the issue. It's not fake scarcity. They are trying very hard to increase production. In fact, they are building two new factories as we speak. So let's say that takes them to 3 million watches a year. That will help, but probably still not enough. The real question is how many potential buyers there are each year.@@Sovnarkom

More than anything, I think they make me feel more successful when I wear them. In December 2021 I bought two very expensive leather Jackets from Overland. I wear the jackets almost every day and they make me feel like a big shot. 2022 wearing those jackets was my best year ever and I think the jackets may have been part of my success!

Here’s the most common sense advice: if you buy a fake expensive watch, you have to get yourself an expensive car, expensive clothes, something that could match the look. Nobody’s gonna believe you have a real Rolex when you don’t fit the look. So, by the time you do all that you will be spending more than buying a real 15,000 watch that could be a good investment or a way to save money
