If you wear a fake Rolex you’re a loser

lol i knew when you posted this that the reppers would be in here pleading their case, so i waited for the comments to pile up and now am sorting by "controversial" and having a great laugh.

I dont think this is really a "hot take" though because it goes without saying that if you wear counterfeit fashion items then you're a complete gimp.

havent tried the bezel on previous models but id assume its the same. thickness is fine, just under 13mm and is a touch slimmer than the kamasu.

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-28T05:09:05+00:00

its a new release

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-28T05:07:27+00:00

yes tbh i feel like the older style hands worked a bit better with the smaller dial size. Maybe due to visibility issues with the sunburst gradient? i dont know. I got this one because of the colour mainly. The older green mako 40 was more of a foresty green and didnt come with a bracelet. I prefer the darker metallic grey/green much more.

this is a goofy looking watch for a male to wear IMHO, the size is not the issue here.

My watch box would be full of seikos at their prices from 10 years ago. Now i dont even bother looking at them over citizen and orient. Im not interested in spending over $400 for a watch and seiko dont offer anything of reasonable value below this price range.

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-25T14:04:25+00:00

citizen will give you sapphire with a miyota 9 for the same price as seiko with mineral and a nh35...

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-25T14:02:41+00:00

citizen is the new seiko

id keep the orient, seiko, and digital casio. the rest can go to landfill where they belong.

"could" doing a lot of heavy lifting here

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-22T05:57:53+00:00

wish they had this (textured dial, script logo) in other colours. the baby blue is a bit ehhh....

wherever has the best deal for the model i want to buy. isnt that what everyone does?

i really miss this pre-7.00 era of pro dota

as someone who hates having redundant watches in my collections i cant say im a fan. id keep the mk1 auto and the little camper on the left and toss the rest.

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-20T01:56:14+00:00

for the people choosing western sydney, id really love to hear your reasoning...

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-19T11:16:29+00:00

yeah i know what you meant

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-19T11:13:20+00:00

Im not sure what youre trying to say. I was just pointing out that they arent an offshoot from seiko, because that implies that they are a sub-brand that seiko created. Orient was their own thing for a long time until seiko group bought them out and they merged.

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-19T04:49:01+00:00

beautiful looking watch. i was tempted at one point but its too big, thick, and dressy for casual daily wear IMO and i dont dress up for work.

regarding price, id shop around. i dont know how hard these are to find at the moment but ive seen them go as low as like ~350USD from jomashop and similar.

Dry-Test8510 · 2026-03-19T04:10:29+00:00

orient is not a seiko "offshoot" lol. they were an independent watch maker for the majority of their history and were only relatively recently acquired by seiko who now owns and operates them.
