In a post from a few days ago, I noticed that someone mentioned that they were afraid to post about their dislike of the Tudor BB58 for fear of downvoting. You know what? The BB is a boring watch that’s not worth the money, and Tudor wouldn’t be half as popular as it is without the connection to Rolex. If Rolexes were as attainable as they were in past years, cut that by a factor of 10. Would you really buy a BB if the reality were that you could just save a little bit more and get a Rolex Submariner? That’s my hot take. What’s yours?
Hard disagree. Saying that Omega is another name for Swatch is like saying a 2023 Porsche 911 is a rebadge of a 1998 Ford Escort. The model range of Seiko comes much closer to the lower end of Grand Seiko than any Swatch model comes to within 1000 miles of Omega.
