foulmentalraquetBtoWatches@style.land•[Question] Does anyone else use low cost homage watches to help decide between 2 high-dollar watches?English1·2 years agoNope, it’s more like buy the homage because you cannot afford the real deal i.e get the Maen Manhattan for $800 because you can’t swing $75k for a vintage Vacheron 2215 (and probably will never find one) so in a way the homage is OK.
My Casio A1000MA-7JF. It’s 50/50 split watch snobs would say ew or go wow!

Should be covered by Warranty, most likely they will give you a new watch Vs wasting time trying to fix a $50 dollar ETA quartz movement.
Lug to lug and shape of wrist makes a difference. Also it doesn’t matter what others think. I can wear my nightstand alarm clock on my wrist and even though it is clownish it’s my choice lol

foulmentalraquetBtoWatches@style.land•[Question] Anyone losing interest in the hobby?English1·2 years agoIt’s a self fulfilling cycle , ppl get tired of their awesome watches and sell them on the gray market for other enthusiasts to enjoy who then die and relatives go on Reddit to ask if they are worth anything.
