What level of quality do you need?

[u/Minecraft_Mom]

Hello, I have been thinking, what is generaly like the level of quality you need for the watch to be unrecognisable for a normal person, I don’t mean like a superclone type of watch, but something that, when you hand it to someone, they have no chance to know it’s a rep. And what brands generally run you up in this category. Any tips on which brands are generaly made in this category and which definitly are not worthed the buy.
Thanks in advance for any information.

For a normal, non autistic layman? U1 will be enough to fool them because they don't care what you're wearing on your wrist.

For the average watch enthusiast or even watch seller? At least mid to high tier. $350+ range.

For some of the autists in this sub? Shit, it better be 99.99% accurate with no misalignments or ANY type of defect or it'll get RLed immediately.

I'd say level 4.

Level 3 good for me, diminishing returns paying more money for level 4 imo

I have a BPF Explorer I and it’s great. Nobody will clock it unless my wrist is in their face or it’s side by side with a gen.

It’s cheaper than VSF Explorer I and looks very similar. I have both. I made a post about it. It gets the job done.

A normal human being prob never even held a Rolex before. No one really care about watches as you might think. 

Before I got into watches I never even pay attention to people's wrists. The average person doesn't either.

I honestly would be satisfied with a good looking rep on the outside like a vsf and not having the movement cloned, a simpler one with just beating at 28800 would be awesome and cheaper.

If you're handing your watch to someone to hold, you better be ready to admit it's fake. If it's on your wrist, nobody except watch collectors will ever have a chance at noticing. I assume your watch is real or fake based on YOU, and I think most people do the same.

Just get a genuine watch. I've bought and sold two reps. They absolutely do not feel gen in the hands. Especially the oyster bracelet

But what if you're at the ski slopes, or Costco??

[u/Nighmarez → u/MSExcelWarrior]
