If you buy a Picasso replica because you like it, or have a Mona Lisa hanging on your wall, which everybody knows can't be real because of the obvious (it's hanging at the Louvre), this does not mean you shouldn't have them... Same with replica watches; nobody would assume it's real, but you wear it because you like it AS A REPLICA.

But seeing the average Joe that counts the days before his next paycheck because hes almost out of money with a ''Rolex'', is kinda obvious that it's a fake one.

A US $5 wrist watch keeps accurate time than the US $30,000 Rolex. So, Rolex, as an Accurate Time Keeper, lost to Electronics. In 2002, I bought 2 Rolex Watches in Pakistan for piddly sums of US $35 each. They are perfect. I swam, played Tennis and slept wearing them. Yes, they are Automatic: Day Date. I really do not see the difference. I get them serviced, also for piddly sums of US $10, yes, in Pakistan / India / Nigeria.

[@Emperor-Of-Karma]

whenever you are buying a fake watch go for watches that have design(look) which is not available in any of the unbranded or branded affordable watches. Do not buy anything too fancy as it will surely give it away. Do not buy very plain looking either because whats the point in buying a fake watch just for the name tag without the looks. Go for the watch that is having multiple functional dials. Go for watches with unique designs. I would never go for rolex because it would easily give it away as a fake.

If somebody buys a Chinese made fake Rolex watch they are not getting a Rolex but they are just getting a Chinese made fake Rolex watch. And if they show that watch to their friends and claim it's a Rolex they are just continuing the lie. Now the Chinese do or can make some very nice watches; but they should just put their own brand names on them. I have some nice Chinese watches that have Chinese brand names on them and I'm proud of those watches they don't pretend to be something that they aren't and they stand on their own merits.

For not much more money than a crappy Rolex Submariner fake, you could get a Submariner homage Invicta Pro Diver with an extremely accurate 21,600 bph Seiko movement that losses or gains only 2 seconds a day. The watch is far better quality than a fake costing a similar amount. Why buy a fake when you can buy something actually decent and real?! A close friend has a fake Breitling and although I'd never tell him, it's the most embarrassing piece of shit I've ever seen in my life. The printing on the dial is garbage and smudged, the hour makers are all different sizes, the bracelet is the flimsiest piece of crap imaginable and it keeps horrible time - it was 4 seconds out after just 1 hour. The only guarantee of even half decent quality and time keeping is when replicas use ETA valjoux movements or something similar. Then you're spending several hundred dollars on a replica watch that has no warranty when you could get a really nice Hamilton or Tissot for the same amount of money.

[@spaceman-pe5je]

@@Jimbo8012 hHHahhahahaha imagine recommending Tissot over a rep Tissot watches have TERRIBLE quality control and build quality compared to the reps you can get for the price (or an original Chinese watch like a Lobinni or Seagull). When you buy a good rep (which I can guarantee you have never held in your hand), you are sent macro photography of every angle of the watch (called QC pictures) and you accept the watch to be shipped only if you have no objections with the quality control - dial/indices/bezel alignment, solid end links fitting, rehaut alignment, printing..... Much better system than traditional buying

[@qutaiba6]

Why should be aware..it's beautiful and good watches with cheap price..

[@Zullkrokus]

When see all these very well made fake watches sometimes make me thinks, the expensives genuine branded watches being so costly for nothing...

[@anthonywlong]

Imagine getting robbed and shot over a fake Rolex...

[@Niamhcotts]

But if you lived it would be worth it yeah? Knowing the robber shot you in the head but only got away with a fake watch. Result.

[@anthonywlong]

Oomer Atomic lol

[@skajikhan]

Holy mother of god, if u r going to do this, FOCUS man, FOCUS!!!

[@TheNomadsLens]

Why would I do that? How would you SHIT yourself. SHIT yourself?

[@justanotherguy4874]

If you went to China in search of original Rolex, then one needs to kick your ass first ...

[@exexpat11]

There are Omegas sold by 3 sellers on EBay (I am sure there are more sellers and on other lesser known auction websites). They are always listed as 1970's Seamaster or Constellation Omegas. Once one is sold, a week passes, and another one shows up that is almost identical. (Does Korea have that many vintage Omegas of the same types?) They claim to be used from the 70's yet there are no blemishes on the cases - PRISTINE. They claim the crystals have been replaced and internals cleaned (reasonable... maybe). The internals are CLONES to the originals. I mean they are so good it they would fool a jeweler. The Auctions start around $30 (WARNING FLAG!) and usually the final bidder pays $350, $500, $700, $900, or even sometimes $1000 for the watch. Would you start an auction at $30 for what you know is at least a $350 watch? Here is my theory! I think these are being made in North Korea to prop up the regime. This is a Counterfeit that is generating as much money as Counterfeiting money and easier to pass off to the public and around Governments. So, not only are you getting ripped off if you buy one of these FAKE OMEGAS you are supporting Kim Jong-un and Modern Day Concentration Camps.

[@kewlnes987]

How do you know they come from North Korea or is this a hypothetical?

[@kewlnes987]

I agree it could happen tho

[@quledude]

.

[@ZoneCrasher]

I shed no tear for the sucks who buy those..LOL

[@landerzone2643]

Don't buy Korean watches off Ebay. Almost all are fake and full price as well. This is why fakes are evil. People sell them as the real deal. Fuck everyone who thinks fakes are ok

[@khanhchan5234]

I bought one for £10, do I expect a real one? I wear it for a laugh.it tell the time ok, but you can not open to replace battery , dont be stupid if you pay for £50 and expect a real one.

[@gonshocks]

When they make a watch that's a copy, well not so bad, but when they put a brand name on it then it's a counterfeit and thats really bad.

[@asmobrat]

Fuck all those who saying never buy cheap watches... People are free to buy what they like. Fake or original... What's wrong with that ? If there's a demand, then there's a supply... This is the same rule as narcotics... No one can stop this.... So, the ones who have to think about it are original brands... They can produce low quality watches for supplying the demand in the same price... All expensive watch companies have to choose quality rather than brand i think... Or beginning to produce dildos or lipsticks to sell in the same brand and low price...

[@josemaldonado1481]

asmobrat 01 ,Thanks for your opinion, at the end of the day people buy what they can afford, I’m one of them is their somewhere you can guide me to purchase one or two pieces, any information will be much appreciated. Thank you for any help you can give me.

[@asmobrat]

@@josemaldonado1481 i really don't know which is good to buy, so i just bought three watches these are Chinese brand version not brand imitation, on AliExpress... İ just made some little modifications on them and still using since 10 months. Still works well... I also have original brands... But these are really good for $10 i think... I got them just for hobby...

[@90AlmostFamous]

Itd be ok if they came up with their own brand name , but new watch buyers could be duped into buying fake cheap watch. So yea problem isn't with cheap watch but fake ones that are cheap. Demand is coming from false advertising.

[@bunog1]

your camera is also fake it is always out of focus

[@TheNomadsLens]

Yes

[@maximme]

here something to think about. "“Thanks to current weak Swiss laws, watches produced almost entirely in China can be sold legally under the “Swiss Made” label,” Jean-Daniel Pasche, chairman of the Swiss watch federation (FH), said in a telephone interview." he was referring to Panerai. Reuters report "What puts the Swiss in a "Swiss Made" watch?

[@jpolar394]

I know of a place in China Town in N.Y.C that sells watches by the pound. For example you can get 3,4,or maybe even more watches and you pay for just the pounds. These watches are unboxed

[@thor5397]

You never take Rolex gold or other colour...because his don't stay there all the time..special if you put perfumes or in the rain...always steel...😎

[@davidbowie2046]

I'd sooner wear a real Casio than a fake Rolex.

[@osocampana]

It's like a $20K diamond ring. You get another one exactly like it in CZ and wear it. Stuff the real one in a safe.

[@gonshocks]

They make fake Casios too so be careful.

[@徐安之-p5t]

Duke Of Prunes That's ture，they massive produce fake G shocks for 3-5 dollars each and sell them less than $15.

[@fredericbeigbeder9119]

actually itis quite amazing how they can produce such a wide variety of fakes for that price, if you pay 40.000,- Euro for a Patek you are ripped off kind off

[@donblade5405]

I had a fake rolex GMT for 8 years+ NEVER SERVICED.. Had some sort of highend movement called 2834 or something.. local watch maker open it up and said THAT IS THE SAME MOVEMENT USED IN HIEND TAG WATCHES.. When i wore my real 6k GMT everyone told me it was fake,,,,lol.... RETAIL ROLEX prices should only be for people who got way to much money...

[@hernzo4301]

Love my fake automatic submariner more so than my 1000 buck navihawk still running strong and water proof as well

[@beanzbeanz]

It's amazing how gaudy and hideous most of these watches are.

[@Ktc99999-b]

also goes to show how much we have ripped off by brander watches, since to really make one besides the movement is dirt cheap

[@terence2678]

They are not fake if they work and they really do work well.. Just the brand that is ripped but at $20 you would know that.

[@your_ex_stacy]

Tel whatsup thaaat, is still fake man....

[@wernermatthysen6334]

The replica watches that cost between 400 and 600 US, are so good, not even AD's can tell the difference. They have real ETA movements (you'd be surprised how many luxury watch brands use modified or decorated ETA movements - Panerai, Tag heuer), and built out of the same material as an OG, within scope of course... Titanium, ceramic, 316 steel. So how do 95% of people afford a clone of an original at cost price (90% of a luxury watch's price is brand hype).. Buy a superclone. They call them 1:1 I believe.

[@SpaghettiKillah]

You are right...many watches under and sometimes over 5k $ use ETA movements. However, for 4-600 $ you can get a Hamilton or a Steinhart running the ETA Elaborè grade movements that are +/- 4 secs per day, sometimes even less. Why would you spend it on a fake watch? P.s Panerai WAS using ETA movements...now they have gone up with full in-house movements.

[@lgic1]

I agree

[@kevinjamesdawes7223]

Even originals use eta movements. The name is 80% of the price. Who's ripping who

[@arkadiuszjandylewski152]

If Rolex decide to produce watches in china then they will be cheaper.

[@Oakleyworld]

no one is ripping anyone off, if its just the name then be it, it will still be worth alot in the resale

[@fassenm6041]

wrong. Originals have movements made that took tears to build.

[@asianskywalker]

The problem with luxury watches is that it's a proper con market. They're well overpriced and not worth the asking price, nowhere near! Most mechanical watches are small iterations of a mechanical watch movement thats been around for hundreds of years.

[@alex_inside]

I wouldn't call it overpriced but after 10k you will get less for more.

[@popsgewd5640]

Cyka CheekiBreeki if you wouldn’t call the luxury watch industry overpriced, then there is no purpose for the word “overpriced” to even exist. It is absolutely overpriced.

[@pekmenn]

only because you cant afford it doesnt mean you can cry how it is overpriced
