redpill me on watches /biz/, i have a few options im considering

>one genuine piece, probably a royal oak
>a bunch of 'homage' watches for the same price
>a bunch of straight up fakes for the same price

i'm leaning towards buying a bunch of decent 500 buck fakes, but what do you think?

real royal oak is 50 bands, a good fake is 500 bucks, so i was literally gonna buy 100 reps for the same price.

like, every color of royal oak, every color of nautilus, every color of big bang, bunch of different rolex models, and a few mossianite iced out ones for if i feel like larping as a rapper, just buy every watch i've ever had the slightest inclination towards basically

or i could do what watchfags suggest, and buy homages, but that seems gay af

What the fuck does it mean.
100 replicas are not worth half real watches.
If you just want to show off buy a Richard Mille. You could even get a Jacob & Co. replica for $1500 but that's pure autism.
I'm not into watches, but I'd rather buy a simple (and real) Day Date, just because, but with a fake one I'd feel cheap.

I think a new one is about $70k. Does your manager seem like the kind of guy to spend that much? You can get second hand ones but they're still in the $40k range.
Could also be a fake. If the second hand moves at 1 tick/second then it's a quartz movement ie fake. But lots of fakes get around this now.

>>52529831
Yeah, all these expensive watches are mechanical. Part of the gimmick is that the second hand moves pretty smoothly. Not perfectly smooth, it does tick, but it does like 5 mini-ticks per second and never stops, as opposed to a normal quartz clock that goes tick-tock and stops on each second marker.
So if you see it going tick-tock once a second it's a fake.
But a lot of fakes are aware of this and arrange for smooth sweeping anyway, so it might still be fake.

Citizen has their own called the age of moon astrodea or something like that. Both look great, but the citizen line is a bit older and can be found for between 600 and 1500 depending on condition.

I thought about buying a replica patek, but I don’t really see the point of going through with it. there are thousands of nice watches that you can buy that look good aesthetically and they aren’t a mortgage or car loan.
