Replica watches

[Denny]

I had a Yachtmaster and also got a very well-built replica of the exact same thing. I wore the fake most of the time and the real one on special occasions like going out, church, holidays, etc. The only time someone tried to call BS on it, I was wearing the real one. LOL!

What style are you looking for? You can usually find a reputable brand that makes something similar to what you like.

Not always. Yes, there are plenty of decent watches out there. Hamilton, Tissot, U Boat, etc., and I like those as well, and someday maybe I'll own a couple.

Obviously there are tons of opinions on this topic and here is mine. I have several cheap Invictas, a really nice Bulova, and a really nice Panerai replica. A real Panerai is roughly $12,000. There is no chance in hell that I'd ever spend that much money on a watch, but I love the way they look. I don't even care that it keeps time or not, they are just beautiful to look at. I paid something like $250 for a decent replica of a watch that looks really good and when asked about it, which happens very rarely, I always tell the person asking that it's a replica, I'm not try8ng to impress anyone. Now that person's opinion of me may change after that is said, but I don't really care what those people think. At the end of the day it's still a good looking watch and I saved $11,750 to have it and I carry a cell phone to let me know what time it is.

Call me a poser or whatever but I wear what I want and fuck anyone that doesn't like it.

I remember seeing a quote somewhere that said something to the effect of: more people are going to think a real Rolex is a fake before assuming a fake Rolex is real. I just particularly like the way a Rolex looks other than the white Explorer.

So why bother?

same can be said about a lot of things though... cars, car parts, shoes, clothes, the list goes on. What's the difference?

I agree there is a limit though, I'm not opposed to spending money on something nice, but within reason. I won't spend the money on a rolex or hublot or any of those watches that run multiple to tens of thousands of dollars, but a nice watch in the $1,000 to $1,500 range, I don't see an issue with if you have the money. I would say for a nice watch, $2k would be my absolute MAX if I really wanted it and had the EXTRA money to spend...

I always thought 1-2K on a watch was a lot of money...guess I'm not baller enough for the DFWM jewelry crowd.

At least I can eat the food.
Men drooling over jewelry is just weird.

I love watches, I have a couple nice watches, and I have a gshock rangeman. I wear the rangeman 95% of the time, and think about selling the other two all the time. To me, I can find other shit to spend my money on, like whores

[CexMashean]

nice shit is nice...

I assure you the starving kids in Africa licking flies off of their eyes think the amount of money you blow on food every week is amazing and retarded.

There are some great looking watches under $1,000. Hell, I've got two I'd be willing to sell, and they are not fake.

A Maurice LaCroix and a Lucien Piccard. Both are gorgeous watches, I just don't wear them anymore unfortunately and they are collecting dust. Let me know if you're interested.

[War Machine]

I used to hustle fake watches. I'd go to poker games and sell the shit out of em

This.

Spend $500 on a nice watch dude.

[GrayStangGT]

I can't justify a high dollar watch either, so I bought what I consider nice watches that are all under $1k and aren't fake pieces of shit.
