My most prized watch collection.
I've always been into watches since my early teens.
I remember watching a shit ton of youtube videos.
Now I'm 23 years old and I have 10 amazing watches. ( One shouldn't be named from s and s made by c and one that's not pictured above is a skmei metal gshock homage)
I'll tell you my opinions about the watches I have because I feel like in these 4 years of collecting, I've never regretted this passion. It was always great and always (almost) satisfactory.
- Pagani design Daytona black dial.
This is where the homage watch bug bit me. I fell in love with the rolex Daytona, before it was hyped and when I checked the price of this pagani I couldn't help but have it. It's been 4 years since 2022, the screw down crown, doesn't screw down 😶. But overall still going strong. Great watch for the 50£ I paid.
Sanda tank. Biggest bang for the buck. I've worn fro it more than a year constantly and it hasn't even once died on me. For 8£ I wouldn't dare ask more . It's honestly one of the best. Super light, super nice clasp, it's very good feeling. It doesn't feel expensive let me tell you. But it doesn't feel like it's an 8£ watch too. It's just amazing
Sugess . My one and only mechanical chronograph, I actually bought it last year when there was a thing going around saying that the st1901 movements would not made anymore. I boarded the bandwagon and pulled the trigger. Honestly it was such a good purchase. It's just great for the 90£ I paid at the time. It's such a sweet watch, the sizing is just perfect. Just perfect. What a watch this is man. Really impressed by it.
Onola hublot sapphire homage. The movement is pretty shit ngl. But it is a fun party watch and i really like it. Wore it less than 10 times in the year I owned but it's pretty comfortable too.
Skmei metal square gshock . A soldi watch for the price. Really loved it. It was like a gada watch for me. I did so many adventures with it . It was such a solid and strong watch. Really impressive.
Ss monaco. This is my second ss. After the s and s made by c . And let me tell you both are just amazing. Really solid, adequately built watches for the price, and also really nice. The monaco is a newer acquisition, and its pretty fun. The blue is just right unlike some cheaper watches. I got it at just 50£ and I am confident I'll love it for more than what I paid.
Dwayne campbell seamaster. Beautiful watch. Looks exactly like a seamaster, with the He valve. Although I don't see any use for it but I really like that they're staying true to the design, honestly, I guess it's one of the best seamaster homages under 100£. It's brand new and I have to get it sized, cause I don't have the required tools.
8.Qingxiya planet ocean. It's a newer acquisition and its pretty fun watch. It has sweeping second, and it costed me less than 10 . It feels really heavy and the strap is not so bad too. Although I keep my watches on the stock straps, this one felt really comfortable.
- Nameless Richard Mille homage. It's so good man, it is heavy tho, but it's thin and I feel like it can last a while. It's really fun, the colour pops really Nice and I really loved the way the strap is just velcro. It's just silly and I love it. For 18£, it's such a fun watch. Really appreciate it.
Honestly speaking,
I'm really happy that I found about homages and AliExpress, cause I can buy something that I like without paying fro the brand, and i can simply buy it without thinking too much about the cost because majority are under 300£ and that's something many people who like watches can afford. Genuinely love this homage watch hobby.
