Although it also deserves a couple of quotes: "KINDLY NOTE THAT THE MACHINE DOES NOT FIT SNUGLY
IN THE CASE AND IS SOMEWHAT LOOSE ." And "Such a masterpiece in this brilliant shape is SELDOM SEEN AT eBay!"

True dat.

Not available easily for sure!
you know you good folks that have been on this forum a long time have probably viewed these slowly one by one over time as they were found.
having not seen them before I went way back many many pages and viewed up to the
latest offering.
Although I did have a few laughs, overall toward the end it kinda made me sad.
Many of the watches at one time were great pieces, and now they are a joke to many.
Maybe it's the beer but it made me think of the Brave little toaster movie I watched with my kids and how sad the once valued, now forgotten appliances felt.
oh well, keep 'em coming. I'll grab another beer 😉 !

They almost had it!

The chaotic randomness of the sculpting, the bold cuts to expose just enough of the movement, the effortless application of the emblem,

And then they had to feck it up by doing four symmetrical markers on the sub-dial <shakes head>

I'm intrigued by some of these watches to the point where I would totally buy one and wear it all over place. Of course I wouldn't spent more than a buck three eighty on any of them so I guess it's never going to happen.

is anyone else here as fascinated as I am with regards to some of these watches? And, there seems to be some inverse proportion or negative correlation between the amount of time and effort spent towards creating these fakes and how crappy they are.

it's like these knockoff artists take some twisted pride in their creation of garbage.

Well, at least when they are this bad they are easy to spot. The ones that worry me are the few that are almost correct 😵‍💫
