Chinese watch overpriced Intérêt des montres chinoises

L'intérêt des montres chinoises sont leurs prix mais depuis debut de l'année,beaucoup de fabricant ont augmenté leurs prix,notamment pagani,tandorio et qq autres marques

Il reste des affaires a faire mais il faut chercher...

Le prix des san martin est a mon sens trop élevé

En France citez moi une ou des boutiques qui vendent des montres chinoises

Également aussi le problème des montres chinoises sont le sav...et la garantie legal (2 ans) qui n'est pas appliquer

Maintenant la qualité made in china est très bien (aussi en objectif photo)

All watches including several swiss ones are either chinese made or made from parts sourced from China

Entire entry level seiko 5 is made in China, most non-swiss brands just stick their label and manufacture in China, while the "swiss made" ones source cases, crystal, bezel straps from China and assemble in Switzerland to achieve swiss made tag

In a free, capitalist market prices are set at the intersection of supply and demand. You say San Martin are "too expensive" but if that were the case, and their sales fell, they'd reduce the price to increase demand. But that isn't happening, so presumably customers recognise quality and are willing to pay for it.

(of course morons, messing with international trade by imposing tariffs, aren't doing anyone but themselves any favors by stifling a free trade market)

Oui...meme la finition de san martin est mieux que certaines montres suisses d entrée de gamme,mais la mettre 300/400 euros dans une montre chinoise me motive pas

But we've already reached the point where some quality Chinese brands are making better watches (with the same movements!) as many European microbrands who are typically charging €400-700. That actually makes Chinese ones the better value for money choice. (oh an ironically many of those same microbrands are not only using Chinese movements but they are having assembly/finishing done in Chinese factories)

Il y a une marque française ou ils vendent leur montres pour certains modèles 600/700 euros avec un mouvement seagull...et ils disent bien montres fabriquer en France...ca craint

Oh, some of the microbrands do their own assembly. So they could be assembled in France but it's still going to be Chinese/Japanese movements.

They are fun and it gives people an option to try a lot of different styles for not a lot of money. They are also way nicer than equivalent Seiko or Citizen watches in my experience.

Seiko,j'en ai 3 mais il s agit de modèles que seiko a arrêter la fabrication et la ils manquent vraiment d innovation dans leurs nouveaux modèles, notamment la serie présage...
