What brand of watch do you wear? [Merged]

[chronicle]

ung iba they adopt that mindset... ung looking and acting rich

For me, nothing wrong in buying knockoffs for pang harabas.

What's not good is flaunting them as if they are the real ones. Masama kung muka nang fake, ipapaglalaban parin nila na orig. Haha

My parents bought me an orig seiko and a fake one before (forgot the models) and they would let me use the fake one on a daily basis as they knew i would just damage it due to carelessness back then and just use the orig one on during normal lakad.

I'd never buy fake watch. As they say, you are adding to a system of fraud and thievery imho.

i know of a few guys who buy fake rolex.
they derive pleasure out of showing off their genuine fakes to their friends.
but in truth, every one in the barkada can buy a real rolex if they should want to.

i do.
but it's out of my wallet's league.

at those prices,
i'd expect all power and plush leather, or with a toilet and bath already.

Sorry but I don’t get it why bought a knockoff and you’re gonna use it as a beater?

Diba kung pangharabas dapat reliable, dependable. There are lot more less expensive watches that are for sure more reliable than those fakes.

i don't buy a very expensive watch to tell the time with.
a timex can do that, and more accurately too, at a hundredth of the cost.
i buy a very expensive watch, so's i can flaunt it.

some of europe's royalty wear fakes, when appearing in public.
security issues and all that...

i wouldn't oris to divisoria.
and i don't ferragamo when crawling under the car.

kapag bata ang nagsuot ng relo at after a few weeks pa lang ay puro gasgas na, parang sayang nga kung orig ang ibibigay. better if cheap at disposable. yung orig siguro ay for special occassions.

I have a beater watch. The one I use when bicycling or doing household chores.

It's cheap, maybe disposable. But not fake. There lies the difference.

...so the mall mogul gives his son a fake rolex, "for practice"...
"he can buy a real one on his own, in a few years".

heh heh.

Hehe, I also don't get what all the fuss about is about these fake watches.

My uncle who is rich but not crazy rich can afford to buy several authentic luxury watches but he still buys them knockoffs back then when they were availbale only in Taiwan.

My ninang does the same with clothes, as everybody knows she is rich, she does not have any hang ups with wearing clothes from Divisoria.

Because it doesn't make sense if one can afford to buy original.

If for beater purposes why not just buy low to mid range price branded original.

industry folks say that fake watches are a theft of intellectual property.

beater watches. timex and casio.
although, casio went all-out in some of its models, price-wise.
heh heh.

my pamangkin is merchant marine. he says naka-sira siya ng two seikos in the space of a year. but his current g-shock is several years now and still going strong.

heh heh.

Hmm... is he really a mall mogul or just a Greenhills tiangge stall owner?
And the “fauxlex” is just letting the son practice his skills on how he could pass it off as a real “rolex”.

it was just an example, po.
one may replace "mall mogul" with the more generic "dad with deep pockets".
heh heh.

haha with the price of a fake rolex he can get the son a decent watch already. but if the dad gives a fake seiko to his kid as everyday watch, its likely the dad is not as well off as the mall mogul.

There's no other reason but to pass it off as original.
