I live off my grand fathers retirement check

dont get cheap casio watches

Its been 4 years

like the f91w clones and etc

@NoFunAllowed i read that thanks

hence asking whether theyre sorta total shit or not

It's luck of the draw

All chink shit has the ability to be good or bad

yeah it really is hit or miss

It's like gambling. Sometimes you win, sometimes not.

more like crack

It's more whether you are able to gamble away 20 odd dollars on a watch that might be great, or might be complete shit.

or 20 bucks on like 6 watches

@foobar22 NOMOS and DW are the most memed

Why DW though

It doesn't even look that great

/fa/

that is the only answer

with the nomos can I feasibly pretend it isnt fake?

More like it's such a simple desgin that the chinks can copy it for like 5%of the cost

as in not pretend it's a real nomos but pretend it's a normal $100 watch

shoo shoo, ventrium stinky chinky

uh i mean do you have very rich watch enthuisist friends? no? then nobody will even notice

nor care

its a good watch, you can wear it with most fits and it isnt too gaudy, good fakes aren't super hard to come by either

as in will it look as good as my shitty $80 fossil watch

Most watches you have to stare at the persons wrist for a long time to see any sort of fakeness

is bascially what im asking

Hmm ok sounds good

Just as it says on the wiki, you might want to avoid cheap leather straps

They actually look super crap

and super-cheap nato strats

try not to scrape the bottom of the barrel with that

Rather ostentatious

Lmao

The nomos only comes with leather strap though

guessing i should buy a nato strap to go with it?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
