Because you're getting 95% of the watch for 1/20th of the price?

It actually makes perfect sense. Usually people want to pay the lowest price for a good, and you can do that with replicas. They're basically indistinguishable, the average norman has NEVER seen a luxury watch up close, nor would they even know what to look for.

Do you think normans are sitting there with a loupe inspecting the rehaut x's and r's lining up with the markers?

Any rolex watch is just a very overrated status symbol with no aesthetic.

Imagine you buy a generic black tie for $20,000 because it's REALLY well made with quality material. It's just a black generic looking tie.

In my day to day life, the only watches that have ever popped and captured my eye because of their aesthetics are Skagens.
