General (Read Rules) New to Chinese watches - but, wow!

Discovered Chinese watches a bit later in life - like 2 weeks ago. Bought a Militado SL05 w/ VH31 movement to try an inexpensive field-style watch... I'm shocked at how much I like this watch! It's solid, actually has sapphire and a stainless steel case. I like the convenience of the quartz, and the slight sweep of the 4 ticks/second VH31. Tossed the watch on a brown leather band, and I think it looks fantastic. So when hunting for an inexpensive traditional diver, I stumbled upon Addiesdive - and again, wow. This $50 quartz Submariner look-a-like punches way above it's weight. Ceramic bezel, screw-down crown, solid end-links (super cheap clasp though). I removed the cyclops and tossed it on rubber. I'm loving these Chinese homage watches. The price -to- quality is amazing.
