If this has already been discussed ad nauseam, I apologize, but the number of “is this watch fake” post seems to be growing at an uncontrolled rate. Replica watches have an outright ban, yet people seem to have found a way to circumvent this rule by posting photos of replicas and posing it as a question as to if they are, in fact, fake. Some Reddit users have even speculated that many of these post are just scammers “testing the waters” to see if their replicas will pass the eye test. 95% of the time these watches are obviously fake, (i.e. if you have to ask, you already know the answer) and the number of these posts daily are simply cluttering up the timeline, in my opinion. There is already another sub r/isthiswatchfake (although only currently 7 members, lol) where I think these post should be directed to in the future.
I’ve never been arsed to post about it, but I really hate the choose me a watch. Buy what you want dude.
I like the ones where the person hasn’t even bothered to look much. If a person has looked, they should say so because otherwise, I have no idea what to tell them. Ditto for the gazillion stupid NATO strap threads that could be found with the simplest a search engine searches, ex.: “Reddit best NATO straps”, “watch forum best NATO straps”, etc.
