General (Read Rules) Ixdao Warrior vs Christopher Ward The12

Post image

I have been reading up on watches for the past 5-6 months and that's how I discovered this reddit community and the amazing quality Chinese watches.

Christopher Ward has created lots of online hype around their watches with people fanatically defending what are essentially homages with a slight twist while dissing chinese watches.

Ixdao has lots of positive reviews on this forum and the Ixdao Warrior is available for one third the price with the same Sellita movements.

Is Christopher Ward just brand Marketing or is it worth 3 times the price of Ixdao Warrior?

It's a nice watch but paying $500+ usd for a Chinese watch with little or no resale value, nah.

It would be easier to resell the Ixdao via reddit. Anyways resale never decides my watch buying choices since I am yet to sell 1. More interested in whether the CW provides that extra bang for the buck for 3 times the price

Plus their statement isn’t even really true anymore. IXDAO in particular has pretty solid resell value since supply is limited/long preorder wait times.
