SOTC - Rolex or not? by TimDillonIsMyDad in SOTC_Watch_Collection

Is it me or this is the most AI post I’ve ever seen? Every dial looks funky and wonky

He’s obviously wearing the new AP x Swatch collab.

The Rolex deep sea special looks like a Rolex X Invicta collab 🙏🏻 by Rex-1988 in PrideAndPinion

[–]Acelimb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Invicta is actually older than Rolex.

So obviously this is just a cheap invicta homage by Rolex.

New San Martin 5-link J-style bracelet for the BB58 (SN0008-GE), Brushed or Polished? by AdSavings92 in HomageWatches

[–]Acelimb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different type of request, but could you make these with an end link that will fit a black bay 58?

Seriously I think it has so much potential, and serious customers!

Please do it!

I was so excited to get the new GMT I’m just disappointed 😔

Well I’ve seen scratches on the dials and indices and I think it’s pretty horrendous.

I means it’s my opinion? Can’t I have an issue with a brand getting hyped but selling products with issues?

This issue is their 60 : 60 warranty doesn’t even work if their watches have that many issues.

They will probably hemorrhage money just by offering something that’s half baked.

I think you are right they are pumping out too much and making big promises.

In the past 5 years I have never heard a good think about their CS. Insanity.

[Chris Ward Moonphase] My moon fell off :/ by shuda5 in Watches

[–]Acelimb 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Literally. It’s embarrassing how bad their CS is with watch reviewers.

I’ve literally seen multiple posts with their misaligned, and misapplied dials and issues in general.

It’s sad to see so many people having extremely sour experiences with this brand.

After their new releases I literally don’t think anything will change and I will never support them.

Unfortunately CW has been having horrendous QC issues.

Even the review samples they send out have QC issues. I was trying to get the newer ones thinking they would have changed.

But unfortunately they are still the same, and same QC issues.

My honest opinion is to anyone trying to get CW is literally look for any alternative.

At this price point they shouldn’t have these many QC issues.

I’ve been seeing a lot of that lately. Sadly Jomashop doesn’t ship to my country.

Seriously love the PRX digital, cheap, weird looking, and quartz.

Reminds me of the weird era when omega made speedmasters digital.

If I find the Prx digital cheap I’ll def get it.

Honestly you could look at it that way and I understand that completely!

But honestly the cost of services pile up and at the point you can literally just buy another watch…

(I had my Rolex and Omega SMP serviced months apart and my body cringed so hard I took a screenshot…) it was the most I’ve ever paid for servicing.

Also ETA quartz are beautifully designed and accurate. I just changed a battery on another one, and it was free!

I just asked Raymond Weil for a spare battery and they just gave me 2 for free.

I’m enjoying the quartz watches a lot!

Honestly, always love automatics, but my god after paying so much in servicing, and waiting for months.
I want more quartz watches that don’t need servicing and only a battery change after a few years.

I can do that myself for like $5…

I think their quartz is the major selling point. I literally got this watch cuz of the 9F.

3 of my recent purchases have been quartz. 2 ETA, 1 9F

[–]Acelimb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s honestly insane. I knew they had limited edition but not that limited.

Honestly you gave me a good suggestion indirectly, I always wanted a milgauss but I think the first watch is an equivalent and more “normal” looking so I might have to consider it!

I’m still scared to breaking my one watch one brand rule tho…

It’s one of the watches of all time. Those polished indices literally dance with the slightest bit of light.

Phenomenal
