>grand seiko entry-level luxury
>louis vuitton luxury
KEK, some of the things in this light might be on the right spots but what the fuck is louis vuitton doing in there? if you are wondering what is luxury, compare the second hand market with the retail price. rolex, pateks, etc go secondhand for more than their retail price due to artificial scarcity. tudors, grand seikos etc are roughly the same, you can buy them, wear the watch and sell them a year later at no cost.
brands like louis vuitton however, your watch loses 80% of its value the moment the transaction goes through. you can compare these prices right now. they charge 5000$ for chronographs you can get secondhand for 800$

not to discourage you and you should buy whatever you like, but if you are buying something thats going to lose 80% of its value you might as well buy one secondhand and you'll be able to afford a whole collection of them for the same amount of money

Anyone seriously considering these watches to be investments are retarded. Every single scratch and wear you accumulate actually wearing one of these watches will devalue it for more than what one of these 1:1 clone reps costs.

Unless you plan on keeping it in its box and never wearing it, buying a rep is a no brainer as an "investment" move.

here's the thing about fake/real watches: you don't need to look at the watch at all. look at the person. what do they wear, what do they drive, how do they speak. if it doesn't match, it's a fake. this is a better approach than any HQ pictures.
because you can't hide your tacky lifestyle with a "gen" replica.

I have an authentic Rolex. It's not worth 30k but around 16k. I could have bought a replica since they are available everywhere but I did not. Why?

You idiots don't seem to understand that purchasing a luxury watch isn't SPENDING as in the money is gone. When you buy a cheap shit watch, try selling it after 5 years. It will have lost almost all of its value. Try selling a fake rolex after 5 years and you will get nothing for it since it's shit quality cracking down or nobody wants it anyways since it's fake (assuming you're not trying to trick people into buying your "real" watch ofc, don't be that person anyways). But when I want to reallocate my money in 5 years I can just sell my rolex, worldwide that is, with no fucking problem finding a buyer, for roughly the same price that I paid. Most likely I will even make a profit on it since it's a classic model and not some gaudy iced out nigger tier watch, they tend to lose a lot of their value for obvious reasons. I get to wear a nice watch that I enjoy, that also has an impact on the people I do business with (most also wear expensive watches and could easily spot a fake watch btw) and if I ever grow tired of the watch I can just sell it. Maybe I will never sell it and it's just a drop of value in my security backup money pool. Mqaybe I will give this watch to my kid one day and it'll be a symbol of value to him. I don't actually care about the watch. It's a piece of jewelry, I'm not emotionally attached to. But it's not a waste of money to me for the reasons I wrote.

[Anonymous No.51123288]

Anyone have experience with Bell & Ross? As an entry-level luxury brand it’s a difficult call as they don’t have the reputation or the build quality of the higher end manufacturers but can still cost you a few thousand USD. Some of their models do look pretty good, but it might be safer to throw a bit more money in and choose a more established luxury brand.

yeah that's fair, that's the only mindset anyone should have buying a rolex. and only if they have enough money to justify it. but as a store of value diversification that's also a nice watch.

it just annoys me that the watches aren't actually worth that price and it sells for as much as it does only because of brand recognition and planned scarcity. if i was to spend 16k on a watch i'd want something that really costs over 12k to make in terms of finishing and skilled handcrafting that can't be replicated by machine. i'm not sure what watch would qualify for that though or whether it would be be able to sell as easily as a rolex sells for. also everyone knows the name rolex, while the hypothetical artisan made watch i'm talking about would probably go unrecognized and thus unable to flex or impress sluts. so in the end if i had the money to justify it maybe i would go with a genuine rolex anyways.

some watches you can spend as much as a rolex but they don't hold their value, also aren't worth the cost of materials and craftsmenship, and aren't well recognized brands in high demand. some people still buy those but whats the point.

but if you just want to flex a name brand to impress sluts there's nothing wrong with a replica. but thats all a replica is good for.

There’s all sorts of technical and functional development going on that’s not that easy to spot.

New knockoffs are so good that it's borderline impossible to tell without a full service, full services are sometimes not recommended if it's a collection piece, since a lot of collectors prefer untouched over functional. So you're in a bit of a catch 22...

The best solution imo is to move away from classics into newer models with "impossible" to replicate movements (grand Seiko's, or Ressence for example). But these are seen as hyper geeky watches so they're not priced well. The other alternative is to buy limited editions that have easier lookup time, but in order to even be allowed to buy those watches you need to burn money with your dealer. All and all a fucking scam.
