I just checked even Casio gshock is Sri Lanka is the equivalent of Hamilton watches. We have to stop watching the world through the prism of our comfortable lives. There is billions of other human being, outside of our internet microbubble hobbys and they’re pretty happy to enjoy aesthetically pleasing and affordable products.

Xavier Ancarno finally someone notices this fact. Where I come from these type of watches ($1-$10) were standard wear for guys below 25. A Seiko quartz is considered a high-end luxury product, only a lucky few can afford them. I was 24 when I could first afford a ‘real watch’ (basically a watch not made of plastic), a $70 Fossil and I couldn’t have been happier. All my friends admired my watch. ‘Affordable watch’ means completely different to someone making $6 a day, someone making $60 a day, and someone making $600 a day.

[@Patrick-857]

@@Alias_Anybody I'm aware Chinese products are heavily subsidised, hence the economic warfare comment. I genuinely believe they aim to eradicate manufacturing in the West, and they're close to achieving that end. As for the level of automation involved, I'm fairly sure there's still a certain amount of labour involved. China has over a billion people and their lives are all but worthless to the Chinese government. It's a question of which is cheaper. An astounding amount of work is still done by hand there from what I understand. It's a combination of both really. But regardless, I don't think getting a watch of any quality for a dollar, from anywhere, shipped across the globe to your door is possible without something being terribly wrong, and I'm not sure making profit is the objective.

There is. Thru currency value manipulation. And all their shipping is fully subsidized. BUT the movement is probably robot made and the rest is made by piss poor peasants in the north where there's no industry and hence 1 shipping container of watches a month makes it down south on the train. So the watch size allows them to make them in a REAL poverty stricken area. Ahh hell. It's probably just prison labor in Xinjiang province. Another thing is that a lot of the wish stuff is REJECTED orders because they were made SO badly that they never leave china and not seeing a real photo on wish is the ONLY reason they get sold.

I bought a Rolex-style Geneva watch for a total of $5 (shipping included) and it tells time well enough.

I bought it to wear while working on cars, for that purpose its excellent.

[@tghartman321]

It's been a year since your comment, so you may have already discovered this on your own, but the Roman numeral IIII has been standard on watches for centuries, even on high end models. Out of curiosity I've looked into the reason, but can't find anything definitive, just various theories.

[@RobotMonkeytron]

Just go to straight to AliExpress, I'm sure that's where they get all of their product anyway. On there, there are a lot of good watches, though they're a tiny portion of what's on offer, so yeah, the odds aren't good buying at random. Pagani Design makes decent watches (though mostly homages, which will be a turnoff for many), the Loreo Diver is quite nice (though also completely unoriginal, admittedly), and they've got the official Seagull store, so that's cool. Basically, you get what you pay for, and on these sites, you'll find bottom-shelf crap that any store you'd recognize would be ashamed to carry and sell. There are gems in that mountain of crap, but skip the middleman, as I'm pretty sure Wish just buys from AliExpress.

I don't care how bad is the watch. How is it possible to produce this "watch" and ship it to you from the other side of the world and still make a profit on it. Like how

[@rodbelding9523]

I mean for a dollar Id wear it as a beater watch, Ill never complain about anything that costs only a dollar lol.

[@roberpic]

I wonder how many months it took for it to arrive?

[@schreds8882]

I think I'm the only person that doesn't have a problem with a $1 watch. It's a junk watch that will fall apart within a few months (the strap a bit sooner) but hey, for your young kids just wanting some bling, it's OK. I'd totally hit it with Lysol wipes first though. That is if I can ever find some in the store. 😉

Shitty or not, its second hand hits the marks better than a 400$ Swiss quartz.

Step 1: buy 10.000 of these. Step 2: sell them for 2 dollars on the streets. Step 3: Rolex.

Fake it till you make it

[@guannan5085]

This watch is great, there is already wear and tear and patina before you even wear it! There is also a story behind that fake chronograph, they want to cut the middle man and give you a beautiful watch without even troubling yourself to use the chronograph

[@thetimeteller]

I LOVE faux patina, so honestly this is right up my alley. 😂🤣👍

"Let me take off my Rolex Explorer II" hahaha shit made me crack up.

I enjoyed this video more than I thought I would. This needs to be a regular thing.

[@RemiX_O]

Since the SKX series is now discontinued, would you be willing to try to do some reviews on watches styled after the SKX? Such as Islander Watches, Deep Blue, ect.

[@steveg4082]

I love how the seconds hand shutters and jitters between 4&9. I don't know how cheap watch movements work, but that could sabotage the watch's timekeeping and longevity. I guess it doesn't have Citizen's anti-backlash system 😉

I bought that exact watch from Wish for $0 and $2 shipping. It hasn't arrived yet. I'm going to give it to a 6 years old kid. Also, you can get the Skmei watches from Wish and they're pretty decent. The Skmei 1456 is an all metal, square Gshock homage and for $15-20 it's a heck of a bargain. It's one of my favorite beater watches.

[@DudemenProHI]

bruh this watch is worth every dime you paid. It works and it looks good from far and it only costed $1

[@spyker603]

I finally understand why the app called Wish, because after you bought from them you just “wish” you didn’t do it.

[@greenalien8503]

We thought you'd like them since we thought you'd buy one more around the $25 or $30 dollar price point...

[@sandokan1578]

But for 1 dolar what would you expect?

[@ahha6304]

the question before watching : which wish wristwatch?

[@RogerMillerInVA]

I don’t know anything at all about your love life, but if that watch doesn’t ignite the passions of all around you, nothing will. Thanks for a great review ... I loved it!

[@aarongonzales7878]

Speaking as someone with a nickle allergy I am right there with you!

[@MirceaD28]

For me this watch would be a parts watch. The glass, the mechanism sold separately makes more then $ 1. Remove the white plastic frame, push aside the spring leaver (+ terminal) near the stem, and the battery will jump out because the negative terminal under the battery is also a spring. Think like a watchmaker and you will see things differently.

[@daletaylorjr.4786]

I was totally expecting you strap watch over a piece of toilet paper 🤣🤣🤣

[@trevorstepoo8838]

There's plenty of room in my trash can for this watch

[@tunakann7629]

I think wish totally flexes on watch snobs when a wish watch looks literally just as good, and telks the time, all for 1$. There should NOT be a 5,000$ difference between a good enough fake and a genuine, imo watch people are ripping themselves off more

[@johnfrei9057]

That beard is getting fierce!

[@cobbler88]

A matte finish doesn't necessarily bother me that much, but there's a difference between matte and looking like construction paper. And cheap-ass metals and finishes regularly have reactions with a person's skin. I can't wear sunglasses with metal frames because they'll react with the skin on my nose where the rubber nose pieces touch the skin.

[@b33fy89]

Wish is actually dope for straps on the cheap, the NATO straps are perfectly fine
