Just watched this video 🤣 🤣 the writing isint Swiss lol ,the watch is made in China, its a total fake , its not a real tudor , Bring it to your local jeweler and he'll have a laugh at u too. You don't know much about watches 😂
@@barryt8913the video is sarcasm lmao. He very obviously knows and is making humor of it. My guess is that you’re not an English native speaker? That would make sense
@@TheTownWatch He's right about it. I think you really need to read and speak perfect Swiss to understand it. It's written on the packaging. lol Thanks for the video. I had a good laugh.
The part I find great is even though you are speaking in sarcasm the entire video, many of the points you make, actually make sense. No waiting list, far below retail pricing, looks pretty good.
What??? What swis....it's Chinese....all over...it's an imitation...my goodness...and the price....but good copy of it. Reading all comments...wow...is this a joke! Well as long your happy it is ok. Hahaha! Swiss...
Part of me watching the video to the end is realizing the watch industry did this to themselves with their high pricing and waiting lists. All that;'s missing is those genuine Tudor atoms and molecules.
Aren't you forgetting about the other side? I mean, the "watch industry" people sell to other people, don't they? Who pays those crazy figures? Up to what, 50k for steel watches? I have no sympathy for the "watch industry" but you have to admit they don't sell in outer space, do they? It's not like they invented stupid, they just sell to stupid.
Mmmm movement engineering still earns brands like Tudor, Omega, Breitling, etc. their high-end price point. Hand craftsmanship still has its place in today’s markets.
This video delights me. You're informed enough to eviscerate a fake, but don't carry the pretentious attitude that normally comes along with that level of knowledge. Great work!
@@LeechUFC yeah you’re right. This is way worse than Hodinkee talking to John Mayer about the time he bought a 5711 to commemorate a particularly meaningful Earth Day. /s
They don't put hand wind movements in dive watches last I checked. Considering the threading gets in the way and the stem positions aren't designed to wind in the first pulled position they only wind in the unpulled position which can't the done with a threaded crown the first pulled position is usually designed for the date but can be a little funky like the gmt feature of the citizen night hawk. Correct me if I'm wrong of coarse
I’m Chinese and I love this video. Great humour! Unfortunately there are 1.5 billion people in our country and we’re not terribly proud of some of them..
The irony of these fake watch reviews is that while you are trying to show how cheap the quality is you are actually getting these companies more buisness! Of the over 100k viewer's a couple hundred are like that's not a bad looking watch for only $113.
I had no idea this video would blow up like it did! That's for sure! I guess when you tell someone not to do something, sometimes it just makes them want to do it! :)
I’ve recently bought a Tudor Black Bay 58 in Navy Blue on a Tudor nato strap as it was £300 less. (It still cost £2400 on the nato). I’m almost tempted to buy this fake from Wish just for the stainless steel bracelet and put it on my genuine Black Bay !
Dude -- you really blew it. I just saw today on Wish that you could have bought the same real actual authentic Tudor Back Bay for $9. You got ripped off! :)
Great report. Can’t wait to get mine for 1% of retail. I knew top of the line watches had lots of profit in their price. And to think no wait Who needs the box, papers and manuals. The Protective plastic was top of the line. Thanks for detailed report!!!!
I've paid more for watches that don't even have solid end link bracelets, so that's honestly not a bad deal. Also I've paid more for solid end link bracelets alone so tudor really is a cost effective company. No wonder they're so popular
Brilliant!! 😂😂 I've watch thousands of reviews and this is brilliant had me properly laughing .. the updated bracelet nearly made me drop my coffee 🤣 And the Swiss writing at the starts inspired 😂 well done bud 👍
Glad you enjoyed and got a laugh! That was the whole purpose! Thanks for watching and commenting! I hope you'll check out my more regular and "serious" content on my channel too!
Exactly.... it makes you think of the asking price of the real thing. We all know the movement alone isn't worth 1000's of dollars how well and precise it may work. Neither the sapphire or the strap, nor the bezel. It is a huge part marketing, wanting to show what you can afford. I don't say Tudor doesn't make nice watches but for sure they are overpriced. Just like Rolex, which I never ever liked, they're tacky and without inspiration.
They charge that much because ppl pay it...The actual material cost for a real Rolex Sub is like 10.00.They want you to think some Swiss guy is hand making the watch when 95% of it is computerized.
@@echochambers8418 plus the 'jewels' are all synthetic, as is sapphire glass. And Rolexes age so badly. I never understood the attractiveness of a Rolex watch. Nonetheless, people like to show they are successful financially, Rolex helps them with this.
@@echochambers8418 I was under the impression Rolex watches and the like were so expensive because of the manufacturing process (and the label more than anything) they invested in expensive equipment to make sure the quality of every single watch were the same and you get what you're supposed to get. Although sounds like mass manufacturing to me 😅
On the off chance this is not ironic: the difference between a $200 watch and $5,000 watch is the ministrations of dozens of small Swiss men in leather aprons making every last bit beautiful and perfect. Little Swiss men in leather aprons are not cheap!
Haha I got an ad for Wish just here. I buy some of the fake Seiko and Tudor watches for business purposes anyway, I actually like wish. Hilarious video though bro. 😂👌🏻🔥
Serious question, is the bracelet 20mm inside the lugs? Will it fit the real bb 58, I need a bracelet for mine and this could be a great solution, thanks!
It has been so professional to take inside your will to laugh, upon the case back removal to reveal the gorgeous suiss maid movement inside! Thank you for sharing! :-)
The Cotes de Geneve striping on the rotor sold me that it was indeed a genuine Tudor. I’m thinking the watch was sold at a deep discount probably because it was a return item due to the defective bezel, mistaken case diameter, and being an out of box item. Kohls does that all the time. The box is at least 2500. The watch itself is only a few hundred. So that’s about right. 😉
tnx, after watching this video i bought several high end watches, one i will present to my boss: he always wanted to have an original rolex! what a bargain prices on wish!!
Omg, what a DEAL!!!! Think I’ll shop there for my wife’s Christmas present! Thanks🙏 for the thorough review! You’re the best! Oh btw, before I forget, you need to adjust your digital caliper.
Nice 😉 As a Brit I appreciate the deadpan, dry satirical nature of the delivery 👍 I think it was a good idea including the intro and outro disclaimers, just in case some dullards don't get that it was satire.
Americans tend to struggle with satire, especially when it's a fellow American doing the satirising. (Aussie here, got the joke straight away, watched the whole video because it was hilarious!! Keep up the good work!)
Lovely review, and you got the extra size because of the “deluxed sized” trim you chose. In a nutshell, you got more watch for a bargain, bro, what a steal!
I understand you not putting the link to this replica, but please please would you mind sharing it, I absolutely love Tudor and would want to purchase the above one!!
Love the way you handled the subject. I’m tired of the hundreds of “look how much this looks real” videos. The satire was way more fun. In keeping with the theme. You think you did well you should see the white gold Daytona I picked up for $145. I too went for the deluxe model.
Awesome Twodoor! Love that Twodoor listened to the watch entusiast community and got rid of the riveted bracelet and introduced a new color-way for the Hack Bay 59. How did Hodinkee miss that one? No bezel slop on that bad boy.
Oh man. Hahaha, I just had to find out for myself, and I found this on Wish for $18.00. So, I bought two to take apart and play with. Honestly, the quartz movement wasn't bad. The second hand seemed to roll smoothly, so I had to rip the back off to be sure it was quartz. Rest assured...it's quartz. And that is the only compliment I can give it. Let us just say it is worth every penny of the $18.00 I paid for it. As I started, I had to pull off the back to check the movement. When I did, the tool scratched the "stainless." It is not even plated. The coating that makes it look like stainless...is some kind of plastic. It's brass underneath. The watch face...that's cardboard. There is lume on the hands...but not on the digits. I have no idea why I even bothered to pull out my hardness tester but...you already know it aint Sapphire, like the ad says it is. Now, i only bought it to pull it apart and play with it, and I only did that because it was $18.00. But even as a FAKE...the other fake watches won't hang out and drink with this one. It is hard to believe. I am a pretty low end collector. My collection is full of Paganis, Orients, Seikos Proxima and the like. But even a guy like me is a snob to THIS garbage. Had I thought I was buying something of value, and had I paid any kind of real money for it, I would be pissed. But I did neither of those two things, so...it's f__king hilarious! ****I almost forgot: My bezel was so tight that I actually had to go out into the garage, and use a pair of channel locks to break it free.
A cleverly done video which actually has the opposite effect to that which is no doubt intended. As the satire is too subtle and intelligent, you soon begin to think the fake watch is actually rather good for the money as few people care too much about accuracy of watch measurements etc. I suspect this is actually a great promotional video for Wish. I bought my Tudor from Wish and the crown dropped off after 2 days so in case you are tempted, these watches are only designed to look good. The absence of any quality build soon becomes apparent. The fun is in the buying and the expectation of its arrival!
as a swiss guy, i can confirm, that that is legit swiss typography.. it translates to 1002% legit Tudor, 45,5 saphires, only for domestic market. Thats why the box is so different. as we all known, everybody whos born in switzerland is giftet by tudor with a black bay in this special box. and because all swiss people are strong as hulk, the bezle for this domestic tudors is improved, to whitstand the power. The Movement in this watch is also special, it calls Sea-Gull ST16 (swiss german for: holy crap, is this a great movement). you have deffently a great piece here, as a swiss guy, i can confirm the 1002% legimity (as all known, all people in switzerland works for Rolex and Tudor, no exeptions), maybee you can sell it online for a total of 3 - 5 Toblerones or maybee a half Victorinox Swiss Army Knife
I personally don't own any replicas but I do have homage watches and one of my favorite homage is the steinhart 42mm.I love the design and look of many luxury watches but wouldn't mind a homage version with seiko or miyota or a cheap Swiss movement, as long I was getting the look (never been into the movements) I'm a car guy too , now that is something I want to the inside (engine performance) to be top notch and would pay accordingly.
The reason for the huge discount on this Tudor is these watches are seconds due to minor flaws such as wrong case dimensions and bezel action. An excellent buy!
This looks more like the blackbay 41mm series more than the bb58. Lol as an owner of bb58, i m not gonna lie. This watch is actually better than expected, lol congrats wear it in good health
Yeah, I thought I was ordering a 58 model but they sent me this. The quality is not too bad. I won’t be wearing though that’s for sure! Thanks for watching! I hope you’ll subscribe if you’re not already!
FANTASTIC FIND, I'm so glad you choose to display it.The wristband shine was dazzling,and the SAPPHIRE crystal,well there's just no way you're going to scratch that.HOWEVER I'm a little worried about the loom,after you ACTIVATED IT,my Geiger counter that i keep in the basement STARTED to TICK LOUDLY.!!!! So i paused the video and the ticking slowed way down.When i started the video back up the ticking continued until the end of the video.So if i was you i would at least wrap it up in ALUMINUM foil when your not wearing it ,and i would keep your hands out of your pockets.I was hoping for a side by side view,maybe in the future if you can afford it an apples to apples comparison would be great.Thank you so much for the informative and insightful video.
Dude you are hilarious! I love it! The funny thing is the watch is actually really nice! Like I would totally rock this watch if I had no shame. Great review, very entertaining bro!
i agree 😂 after seeing this I consider buying one myself. you know, if you wear a fake rolex everybody will know it is a fake ... but who would think that tudor has replicas?
What an amazing buy! I went on line and even with Corona the best price I could find was $3780. But much to my surprise I was able to find a Rolex Submariner Hulk for $90. That beats the hell of the quote i got in Aruba for their last model at $12,500.
Haha if you put an eta movement in it it will be the same as the original, what you should be asking is how can they produce this for lets say 40us and tudor charge 4K for the addition of a 300$ movement and seals. Haha enjoyed the video...
I own a sea dweller 16600 in brand new condition and i wouldn't mind wearing a replica of such quality when i don't want to damage the original one (i usually wear a Seiko diver in those situations, so i know there are alternatives...) I'm not sure you feel bad to wear a fake watch when you know you can afford the original one. Also when i bought my Rolex 15 years ago, i think a Tudor was under $2000, so Wish is not the only one to rip you off...
I finally got a Seiko Turtle. Its the nicest watch I've ever owned, but somehow its still crap . I need to stop watching watch channels. Now I want a Doxa.
Some of the "high end" fake steel watches are very convincing until you wind the watch. The sad part is that for $113, you can buy a real Casio or Timex watch that will work fine and you don't have to pretend to be something you are not. There is a certain freedom in being truthful with yourself.
The biggest thing is the seconds hand. The way it moves isn’t a Rolex automatic watch. See how it stops at every second instead of continuous motion, besides the price tag duhh but I’m saying in case u do spend more thinking it’s a discount always check the seconds hand. I know this rolex but doesn’t tudor have the same movement?
That's still a lot of watch for $100. Could have been a decent homage if there was no branding. True that there is little QC with such clone movements but that's no different from other overpriced branded $100 watches
made me chuckle - thanks! i'd be intrigued to know their numbers: how much it costs them to accurately replicate and manufacture this. and then how many units they would actualy sell.
Well I liked and appreciated this video! I've been dying to see up close and the insides of one of these cheap Wish knockoffs for a long time. Thanks for the input!
The "ghost date" is a premium feature designed to give you the occasional day off without any guilt at all. Sure, you can buy a package of gum worth more than this watch, but gum doesn't tell time.
That review was hilarious! You sure took the piss out of this "genuine" Swiss made Tudor watch, with particular emphasis on key words such as "high quality", "100% genuine", "Swiss writing & language", "well protected", "top notch" ...! This is my type of humour ... when you know how fake it is, you gotta laugh at the absurdity of it! Thanks for the laughs!
@trailblazer King I didn’t buy the Ball, it was loaned in to the channel at the time. I hear what you’re saying but I also think you should buy what you like whether it gains in value or not.
I was so angry after watching this video. I went straight back to my AD and asked him why he didn't offer me the Deluxed version when he sold me my Black Bay!
They know how to build a well made watch at that pricepoint. Aside from the brand ripoff, its still a solid watch for the money. And Japanese movements from Seiko or Citizen are robust pieces. Its way better quality than those overpriced fashion watches like Daniel Wellington.
Strangely, my background in east Asian languages allowed me to actually read the Swiss writing! I didn't know the Swiss language was so similar to mandarin.. Who knew?

No, it's because he ordered a 41 mm black bay, not a 39 mm black bay 58. The BB58 is smaller with the gilt finishing on the indices and bezel.

Honestly, the quartz movement wasn't bad. The second hand seemed to roll smoothly, so I had to rip the back off to be sure it was quartz. Rest assured...it's quartz.
And that is the only compliment I can give it. Let us just say it is worth every penny of the $18.00 I paid for it. As I started, I had to pull off the back to check the movement. When I did, the tool scratched the "stainless." It is not even plated. The coating that makes it look like stainless...is some kind of plastic. It's brass underneath. The watch face...that's cardboard. There is lume on the hands...but not on the digits. I have no idea why I even bothered to pull out my hardness tester but...you already know it aint Sapphire, like the ad says it is.
Now, i only bought it to pull it apart and play with it, and I only did that because it was $18.00. But even as a FAKE...the other fake watches won't hang out and drink with this one.
It is hard to believe. I am a pretty low end collector. My collection is full of Paganis, Orients, Seikos Proxima and the like. But even a guy like me is a snob to THIS garbage.
Had I thought I was buying something of value, and had I paid any kind of real money for it, I would be pissed. But I did neither of those two things, so...it's f__king hilarious!
****I almost forgot: My bezel was so tight that I actually had to go out into the garage, and use a pair of channel locks to break it free.
You should have got the "Deluxed" version...
A cleverly done video which actually has the opposite effect to that which is no doubt intended. As the satire is too subtle and intelligent, you soon begin to think the fake watch is actually rather good for the money as few people care too much about accuracy of watch measurements etc. I suspect this is actually a great promotional video for Wish. I bought my Tudor from Wish and the crown dropped off after 2 days so in case you are tempted, these watches are only designed to look good. The absence of any quality build soon becomes apparent. The fun is in the buying and the expectation of its arrival!
You're probably right! 😅 Thanks for watching!
Oooo hell man, i'm definitely subscribing !! The horology world need more people like you.
Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for subscribing! Really appreciate that!
you know this watch isn't even real right
It's a satire, a lil' comedy wont hurt. And of course the Black Bay is not a legit one. Can't fall for the price.
the packaging isn't in swiss language, it's in chinese which mean this watch is from CHINA
@@bonnguyen7527 😂
Wow, lucky you!! Can hardly wait for my Omega Speed Master to arrive that I found online for $51.00 ( Canadian)! SWEET!!😊
😅 Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching!
as a swiss guy, i can confirm, that that is legit swiss typography.. it translates to 1002% legit Tudor, 45,5 saphires, only for domestic market. Thats why the box is so different. as we all known, everybody whos born in switzerland is giftet by tudor with a black bay in this special box. and because all swiss people are strong as hulk, the bezle for this domestic tudors is improved, to whitstand the power. The Movement in this watch is also special, it calls Sea-Gull ST16 (swiss german for: holy crap, is this a great movement). you have deffently a great piece here, as a swiss guy, i can confirm the 1002% legimity (as all known, all people in switzerland works for Rolex and Tudor, no exeptions), maybee you can sell it online for a total of 3 - 5 Toblerones or maybee a half Victorinox Swiss Army Knife
Stefan Infanger 😂 Thank you for confirming this watch as genuine!
I got a Wish ad during this video!! You made money from the company you were "advertising" for!! Amazing!!
I personally don't own any replicas but I do have homage watches and one of my favorite homage is the steinhart 42mm.I love the design and look of many luxury watches but wouldn't mind a homage version with seiko or miyota or a cheap Swiss movement, as long I was getting the look (never been into the movements) I'm a car guy too , now that is something I want to the inside (engine performance) to be top notch and would pay accordingly.
felt sad about the dollars spent for that fake tudor "Black Bear"... $113 can already score a decent Orient, seiko or citizen watches.
The reason for the huge discount on this Tudor is these watches are seconds due to minor flaws such as wrong case dimensions and bezel action. An excellent buy!
:) Thanks!
hehe I love that old lie
💀💀💀💀💀
This is a replika, not even aa or aaa replika...
And of course, the wrong movement.
This looks more like the blackbay 41mm series more than the bb58.
Lol as an owner of bb58, i m not gonna lie. This watch is actually better than expected, lol congrats wear it in good health
Yeah, I thought I was ordering a 58 model but they sent me this. The quality is not too bad. I won’t be wearing though that’s for sure! Thanks for watching! I hope you’ll subscribe if you’re not already!
ya....it's neither...
FANTASTIC FIND, I'm so glad you choose to display it.The wristband shine was dazzling,and the SAPPHIRE crystal,well there's just no way you're going to scratch that.HOWEVER I'm a little worried about the loom,after you ACTIVATED IT,my Geiger counter that i keep in the basement STARTED to TICK LOUDLY.!!!! So i paused the video and the ticking slowed way down.When i started the video back up the ticking continued until the end of the video.So if i was you i would at least wrap it up in ALUMINUM foil when your not wearing it ,and i would keep your hands out of your pockets.I was hoping for a side by side view,maybe in the future if you can afford it an apples to apples comparison would be great.Thank you so much for the informative and insightful video.
😅
Yes please I want that to !
Dude you are hilarious! I love it! The funny thing is the watch is actually really nice! Like I would totally rock this watch if I had no shame. Great review, very entertaining bro!
Glad you enjoyed!
That´s actually not bad for $113, that bezel action is hilarious tough
i agree 😂 after seeing this I consider buying one myself.
you know, if you wear a fake rolex everybody will know it is a fake ... but who would think that tudor has replicas?
@@gordanbabic8028 The most replicated watch is the F91W, just a fun fact. It costs what, like $8-15 for a genuine watch?
@@gordanbabic8028 I always see this dude wearing a fake rainbow daytona and I'm like dude, at least try to make it believable
@@boltspeedman35 exactly! 😂
LOL ITS A REPLICA.
What an amazing buy! I went on line and even with Corona the best price I could find was $3780. But much to my surprise I was able to find a Rolex Submariner Hulk for $90. That beats the hell of the quote i got in Aruba for their last model at $12,500.
😅
CHINA IS IN THE WATCH BUSINESS!!! Ok, the fake knockoff business, but they are still watches.
Haha if you put an eta movement in it it will be the same as the original, what you should be asking is how can they produce this for lets say 40us and tudor charge 4K for the addition of a 300$ movement and seals. Haha enjoyed the video...
😂 awesome. Loved your presentation and the tongue in cheek review. Beautiful authentic Tudor watch. Enjoy 😉
When see all these very well made fake watches sometimes make me thinks, the expensives genuine branded watches being so costly for nothing...
I really needed this laugh amidst all the gloomy happenings around the world. The never ending sarcasm was classic, hahaha!
😅 Glad you enjoyed it and got a laugh!
I “wish” more companies would make the bezel as tight as that so that it loosens up
😅
I own a sea dweller 16600 in brand new condition and i wouldn't mind wearing a replica of such quality when i don't want to damage the original one (i usually wear a Seiko diver in those situations, so i know there are alternatives...) I'm not sure you feel bad to wear a fake watch when you know you can afford the original one. Also when i bought my Rolex 15 years ago, i think a Tudor was under $2000, so Wish is not the only one to rip you off...
I finally got a Seiko Turtle. Its the nicest watch I've ever owned, but somehow its still crap . I need to stop watching watch channels. Now I want a Doxa.
Hello, you said this watch is real but everyone in the comments is saying is fake. I’m confused. Please explain thanks
Please read the pinned comment and the description and carefully watch the video again... you will find your answer...
Anyone else get a Wish commercial at the start of this? Ultimate irony!
For this kind of money I was expecting quartz movement, ngl this is better than my expectation
Me too. When he took the back off I expected to see a battery
Oh my goodness thank you. “Now wish did say that this wouldn’t come in the original packing....” did I laugh out loud literally, awesome video m8!
😂
Some of the "high end" fake steel watches are very convincing until you wind the watch. The sad part is that for $113, you can buy a real Casio or Timex watch that will work fine and you don't have to pretend to be something you are not. There is a certain freedom in being truthful with yourself.
Absolutely! Thanks for watching!
Dude, this is hilarious! “Swiss writing”! Awesome! New subscriber!
Glad you got a laugh!! Thanks for watching and subbing!!
The biggest thing is the seconds hand. The way it moves isn’t a Rolex automatic watch. See how it stops at every second instead of continuous motion, besides the price tag duhh but I’m saying in case u do spend more thinking it’s a discount always check the seconds hand. I know this rolex but doesn’t tudor have the same movement?
Screw down crown and case back, solid end links, solid links, a milled clasp, and a box-domed crystal? I was expecting WAYYY worst lol
Not too bad!
That's still a lot of watch for $100. Could have been a decent homage if there was no branding. True that there is little QC with such clone movements but that's no different from other overpriced branded $100 watches
Yes, it’s not too bad! Thanks for watching!
made me chuckle - thanks! i'd be intrigued to know their numbers: how much it costs them to accurately replicate and manufacture this. and then how many units they would actualy sell.
Glad you got a laugh!
I was impressed the movement looked that good.
was the dial font PRINTED??
Just bought my MIDO Oceanstar from Wish, let's see how it is. It began by stating that it is quartz.... I will try to make an unboxing...
This video is actually quite fun! And this bezel, wow, only the best high quality can be that tight. Congrats on your new purchase.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
I can tell you have never unwrapped the plastic off a “High End Swiss Watch”. There should have been arrows showing you which way to pull it🤔
If they didn't brand it as a tudor...it wouldn't be a bad watch.
You're right! Thanks for watching!
I absolutely agree. Many of us could go for a sterile face instead. It's a good looking watch.
I bought a cheap Chinese quartz wristwatch for 70 euros. Is it any good?
Well I liked and appreciated this video! I've been dying to see up close and the insides of one of these cheap Wish knockoffs for a long time. Thanks for the input!
Glad it was helpful! 😄
I’d to see him going around ADs showing off his new Tudor😂
The "ghost date" is a premium feature designed to give you the occasional day off without any guilt at all. Sure, you can buy a package of gum worth more than this watch, but gum doesn't tell time.
😅
That review was hilarious! You sure took the piss out of this "genuine" Swiss made Tudor watch, with particular emphasis on key words such as "high quality", "100% genuine", "Swiss writing & language", "well protected", "top notch" ...! This is my type of humour ... when you know how fake it is, you gotta laugh at the absurdity of it! Thanks for the laughs!
Thanks for watching! Glad it made you laugh! 😅
@trailblazer King I didn’t buy the Ball, it was loaned in to the channel at the time. I hear what you’re saying but I also think you should buy what you like whether it gains in value or not.
that’s hilarious! I hope there aren’t any viewers who skipped the satire warning. Please destroy it ASAP!
Hahahahahahaha, Great video! Love your positive comments on the Wish Watch. Waauuuww. You even whistle ones a while.
Love it.
The price speaks for the quality of the warch.
I was so angry after watching this video. I went straight back to my AD and asked him why he didn't offer me the Deluxed version when he sold me my Black Bay!
😅😂 Thanks for watching! Congrats on your real Black Bay!
@@TheTownWatch Sorry this thing went sideways on you but I'm glad you didn't lose your money.
Why buy the Seiko Tuna on eBay when you can get the Seiko Mackerel on Wish? Solid, stainless chinesium.
I think the correct term is "stain, less steel”
I honestly was hoping you would have bought the low quality and the deluxed to compare.
That's the new deluxe plastic in house spacer. Congratulations 👏
Had me laughing so hard when you took that caseback off, not because of the revelation of the movement but your reaction lol
😂 Glad you enjoyed it and got a laugh!
Can't believe the bargain you had, I mean who will goto an AD after this 🤣
The Bald Watch Collector Exactly! AD’s are completely ruined now!
It lines up exactly as My original 58 and my Pelagos, so they got that right.
Exactly, just returned my new 58 under warranty for the same reason.
They know how to build a well made watch at that pricepoint. Aside from the brand ripoff, its still a solid watch for the money. And Japanese movements from Seiko or Citizen are robust pieces. Its way better quality than those overpriced fashion watches like Daniel Wellington.
It’s definitely a genuine replica from Switzerland. It’s strange that the other company called Tudor charges so much.
Possibly the best watch review ever.
Hysterical Dude! "Put it in this nice clear plastic bag" ...Dying
This is my favorite movie right now at this moment. Ohh my god. So funny. Sound effect & back ground music are so awesome. And such a joke !!!
That Swiss writing has my eyes going cross eyed trying to translate it lol
😂
Strangely, my background in east Asian languages allowed me to actually read the Swiss writing! I didn't know the Swiss language was so similar to mandarin.. Who knew?
@@lightspeeder 😂
@@TheTownWatch kudos to you for being such a sport.
Man I’m not going to lie, that hand was sweeping pretty smooth! I couldn’t really even notice the ticks!
