      This is because of the english language. People who are born in other languages also use the word cheap for affordable, not for the bad quality.

      you can use those two words interchangeably. its subjective to the reader whether cheap means "not good" it could also just mean, inexpensive.

    The only thing I dislike on the bambino’s is the water resistant label. Reminds me of my 20$ a168 and f105. Otherwise think it’s a nice watch I personally prefer gen1. Would def wear with my dress shirts.
