RE: not replicas, but affordable mechanical watches, yeah
Posted by bean on November 21, 2020 at 14:39:03:
My style and persona, even a replica high-end watch just ain't me. And I would rather encourage makers' own efforts rather than spend $ on 'replicas'.
I really don't do low-end like Seiko 5 (tho I own a couple), but I never spend very much on a watch. My daily wear is a Maratac large pilot style (surplus, DoD used to issue to contractors). Tough as nails self wider, based on a Japanese made Citizen pocket watch movement.
No quartz here. Or 'fashion' watches.
