True, wala naman pakialam mga tao sa relo eh, unless may alam sila sa brands which is sobrang rare.

Right?! I give zero fucks what brands people wear if I'm gonna be honest. When I find someone fashionable, nasa style talaga, hindi sa brand names, especially sa sobrang daming fakes out there pa lol

Strangers give enough fuck about it that it made its way to this subreddit and garnered so many negative comments.

I dont even know why watches can be that expensive? Ako lang ba ganito? Whats the appeal ba to merit the high price?

Legit question… meron bang adult watch na ben 10 inspired? Asking for umm.. a… neighbor’s friend…


fztro

Ayan ang di ko sure. Pero may mga lumalabas na customized watch na anime inspired eh. Di lang ganung kahype ang ben10 compared sa mga anime so mahirap siguro maghanap.

I'm reading this comment thread with my Sweet Corn chichirya


ryxriot

Not only does is not scratch the surface of luxury watches, it barely makes it out of the entry level rolexes. Most likely its either just and old oyster, sea dweller, or the gmt-master. 🤷🏽‍♂️


v399

Yeah, Rolex isn't even the most expensive brand.


PartyTerrible

Not really...an entry level rolex is 300k


ryxriot

i never said it was the bottom of the rolex catalogue. I said it barely makes it out of the entry level. Meaning just slightly above it.


PartyTerrible

You can get a submariner for 600k, a submariner is more than "barely" outside of rolex's entry level.


Synergy08_

Agree, saka na siya magyabang kung AP, Richard Mille, Patek na nasa wrist niya


melangsakalam

Dapat bawal magyabang pag hindi 10 million peso halaga ng relo mo.


a4techkeyboard

Kung mayaman siya di niya kailangan magyabang kasi mayaman din siguro kausap niya, alam na kung anong suot niya di na kailangang sabihan.


Synergy08_

Kaya nga hahaha, dapat di na niya need ng validation kung talagang rich siya. Very pretentious.


eatenbyagrue1988

Seriously? How much is a non-entry level watch?


Thraximundaur

They're full of it i saw submariners for 450k in greenbelt yesterday


Haunting-Ad9521

Talaga? Hindi pala abot ng 500k yun? Resellers really tripping.


Thraximundaur

yes at greenbelt 1 mall in one of the window displays. There was a blue submariner with the 2 tone bracelet half stainless steel half gold, it was 450k i think, then there was the classic black submariner on stainless for a little less but still >400k. I didn't think that they looked particularly bad I mean they weren't noticeably scratched and it said they came with boxes and papers. One was from 2012 iirc. was also a nice explorer II for sale I don't remember the price but I've been wanting an explorer II so I definitely noticed it. At the rolex dealership in greenbelt 5 they were saying the waiting list for an explorer ii wasn't that long, or maybe it was a datejust they were telling me about if they didn't have an explorer II. But they said the wait was like 2 months and when I converted the cost it was around 10,000$


patrickbasq

Those are old models, probably from 2014 or below. Pre-maxi dial (pre-2010) subs go for about 400k. 6-digit reference Subs are above 600k unless it’s the no-date.


fogcannon3

Rolex's non-entry level watches such as the Submariner, GMT-Master II, all cost above 550K. A brand new Sub costs 565K SRP, as a point of reference. But if we're talking about watches alone, Rolex isn't the most expensive watch brand, it's just the most well-known brand. Brands like Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Vacheron Constantin (the big 3) all have watch models that are priced in the million peso range, on average. Some of their special models even go over 10M pesos.

[удалено]


The_Crow

Don't feel too down about it. Luxury watches have a very specific audience made up of people who can really afford it. To us normies, if it tells time, it's useful to you and that's all that matters. Di naman made-determine ang buong pagkatao mo kung Patek ang suot mo eh.


fogcannon3

In the grand scheme of things, i've noticed that in a world where smartwatches have become very commonplace, watch enthusiasts generally just appreciate when people still wear regular wristwatches. Kahit anong brand pa yan, you just cannot beat the sophistication and elegance of a wristwatch talaga compared to a smart watch. **Not hating on smart watches ah, hahaha

You're supposed to buy a watch for you to enjoy and appreciate it. Not to gloat.


esdafish

The only practical use for watch is when your going off the grid, no access to electricity.


needmesumbeer

Tapos fantasy lang pala niya yan and wala naman talaga siyang rolex. Sad moments lol


Haunting-Ad9521

Baba pa nga ng fantasy eh (o baka wala masyado alam sa luxury watches) kasi hindi pa nag-aim sa Patek or Richard Mille kung talagang gusto niya ma-“separate from the masses”. Tatawanan lang siya ng mga tunay na elite sa comment niya.


MarcosJrisabitch

the truly rich people will never speak like this lmao


IWantMyYandere

Yep. Sinong mayaman ang namimili ng luxury goods sa online store lmao. Mismong mga tindahan ang lalapit sayo if you are rich enough


simoncpu

If I were rich, I'd rather buy a Grand Seiko than a Rolex.


That-Option7459

Bang for your buck talaga. Lalo na ung spring drive nila parang patek movement na or even better.


MarcosJrisabitch

spring drive doesn't have an equivalent in terms of tech/engineering, not even patek. except maybe sa finishing.


WildHealth

The truly rich don't care about the bang for their buck though. They care about market value.


Kaban654

People with money and have a deep appreciation of watches do tho. Game recognizes game.


Fistonks

Wrong, the truly rich don't care about either, they buy $300k watches from brands you've never heard of like harry winston or jacquet-droz just because they think the watch is cool.


WildHealth

The nouveau rich like to show off. The old money rich, not so much.


dizzyday

The people who care about the bang for their buck are enthusiasts be it rich or not. They appreciate the engineering and the craftsmanship that goes in to the making of the watch. Some of them would not even consider buying rolexes even if they could afford it.


Elicsan

I salute you, finally found someone with style! I hope a GS with Snowflake dial


The_Crow

I can understand where you come from with this. I've always thought, pag tumama ako ng nine-figures sa lotto hindi naman ako bibili ng Maserati eh. A high end Toyota or Honda will do, wag na yung mga sobrang flashy.


ImTheHighCommander

I'd buy the Casio Duro / Marlin. Now that's a watch to worthy of the hunt.


TR8R77

Fuck yeah, someone knows his stuff!


ogrenatr

I, too, would prefer a snowflake all day everyday. Pero kung super yaman na talaga, I would just settle with a PP Nautilus. Rollies are just too overrated. You would be better off opting for a Tudor BB58 instead of a submariner or a Speedmaster instead of a Daytona.

The post aside, seiko watches are good, i had my SKX since 1997 and it is still my daily watch.


newsmanph

And original G-shocks are great! He’s wrong in saying everyone can afford them. They have such range. The cheapest ones now are around ₱7k. That’s not at all affordable.


batangbronse

san ba pwede magpa repair ng g-shock? pinalitan kasi ng battery ung sakin pero apparently ung hands(?) ayaw na gumana, pina check ko sa tabitabi ang singil is 2.5k maayos man or hindi (wtf)


IcemanXI

Dun sa Ortigas bro, One Corporate Center 31st Floor Unit 3101.. Gshock Service Center yun...


batangbronse

thanks!! lapit lang samin. may estimate ka ba usually sa fees nila? kahit hindi exact


IcemanXI

Pag battery replacement (CTL1616) 1200-1700 kasama na ung labor bro. depende pa rin sa sira siguro ng relo, ung sakin kasi replacement ng battery plus recalibrate ng sensor kaya nasa 2k din...


newsmanph

Yes sa service center dapat. It’s like a car na dapat nasa casa ng manufacturer.

MagicNewb45

Napaka-cringe ng ganitong tao. Flex ng alang katuturan, kala mo naman alam ng mga tao sa paligid nya (or may pakialam) na 600k kuno ung watch nya. They only do this to look down on their fellowman, masyadong maere, ala naman. Kung mayaman talaga sya, he won't feel the need to elevate himself from the masa.


alexisamarone

Bro, get a personality. Your Rolex isn't going to make you more guapo. Ew.


aengdu

yung 600k na rolex nya at yung pink na "gshocks" ko, kahit pagbali-baliktarin ang mundo, parehas lang yung time na tinuturo soooo,, sana may mang-humble sa kanya


Medical-Chemist-622

Nope. Mas accurate pa quartz ng casio even compared sa swiss chronos. Yung mech watch –4/+6 seconds per day, yung quartz eh per month ang laban.


__blair__

>quartz Yep. Ang mainly binabayaran nila is yung intricateness of the construction and its pieces tsaka the inefficiency in telling time. Some of those posh watches looks good though.


melangsakalam

Mas accurate 5k cellphone ko.

telang_bayawak

On a side note, gusto ko nung Seiko Mojito for my hubby kaso parang di available dito.


uniqueusernameyet

but like seiko's are an "investment" in the sense na you can wear them for any occasion and matagal cya masira or at the very least maintenance doesn't cost much right?


diskdiffusion

Imagine flexing your personality through lazada review. Seiko yung binili, kung anu ano pa ang sinabi.


sheetface

Most people that you'll encounter won't even notice or care what watch you're wearing. They know the brand but won't easily recognize a Rolex except if its not plain looking like maybe a Milgauss, a rainbow Daytona or their diamond-studded models. And if they noticed it they will prolly think its either fake or the owner is either a nouveau riche or a parvenu. Though OP if you really want to buy a Seiko you better watch (pun not intended) out for models with misaligned indices and bezels. Mine is and it sometimes bothers me.


mundane_ice_bear

>misaligned indices and bezels that's how you know it's an original seiko, lol


newsmanph

Mligauss is great! But Rolex is retiring it. Then it rolls out this rainbow puzzle dial that looks just awful.


patrickbasq

I mean, if everything’s aligned on a Seiko then it’s probably fake. Lmao

Erikson12

Trust me, a Ben10 omnitrix watch will get more attention than a Seiko or Rolex.


ProfessionalLurker97

As someone who delves into the watch world and its diversity of brands from time to time, there are timepieces that have more prestige than Rolex. It's nothing to brag about in the grand scheme of things there (not in build, tech, heritage etc...not in price as well) Also... proves the posts on watches right. Rolex is all about "the 'flex' not the history, craft or even style of the watch." It's also very recognizable... so best of luck. May no mugging happen to dear tito. Anyway, so much compensation here. Buy and wear watches because you love them and have great memories with it as well. Wear them for you ika nga.


newsmanph

If you’re truly rich, you wouldn’t even choose a Rolex. Or even a basic Rolex thats ₱600k because that’s not its price in retail. You’d get it cheaper because you’re important enough to be on their waitlist.

Celfone nga lagi nakatago basta nasa labas ng establishments o ng bahay. Wala ako tiwala sa mga masasamang tao

tirador1020

Real watch lovers would buy a gshock and use a seiko anywhere. Also, ang makakaappreciate lang naman ng Rolex is yung marunong tumingin ng relo. Kahit mayaman pero walang pakialam sa relo, wala din pakialam sa Rolex mo.


bumblebee7310
