Well, let me tell ya ’bout these fancy watches, the kind that look like a Rolex Submariner but don’t cost a king’s ransom. Folks call ’em high imitation, or somethin’ like that. Now, I ain’t no expert, but I’ve seen a thing or two.
First off, these classic style watches, they look mighty fine. Shiny and all. But you gotta wonder, how long will they last? Some say they can go for years if you take care of ’em. Clean ’em up now and then, don’t go bangin’ ’em around like a hammer, and they should be alright.
I heard tell that the real fancy ones, the real Rolexes, they got numbers carved in deep. Real deep, you know? And the fake ones, well, sometimes them numbers ain’t so deep. Just scratched on, kinda like. And the weight, that’s another thing. Them real ones, they feel heavy, like they got somethin’ to ’em. Them fake ones, they can feel kinda light, like they ain’t worth a hill of beans.
Now, why would a body want one of these high imitation watches? Well, let me tell ya, not everyone’s got a pile of money laying around. Some folks, they just want a watch that looks good, tells the time, and don’t break the bank. And there’s plenty of choices out there, more than fleas on a dog, I tell ya.
- Some are bigger, like that Sea-Dweller thing, 43mm they say. Sounds big to me.
- Some try to be different, put their own spin on things, but they still look like that Submariner, kinda like a cousin maybe.
- And then there’s the straps, the bracelets they call ’em. Heard tell the real Rolex ones cost a fortune! Like 800 of somethin’, dollars I guess. Crazy!
So, you got all these alternatives, all these watches tryin’ to be like the Submariner. They say it’s a dive watch style, but I ain’t never seen nobody divin’ around here. Mostly just wearin’ ’em to church or the store, you know? But they are kinda versatile, I guess. Means you can wear ’em most anywhere.
Now, if you really wanna know if a watch is a fake, you gotta look close. Real close. Like with a magnifying glass, the kind them old folks use for readin’. There’s pictures online you can look at, but I don’t know much about that internet stuff. They show you the real one and the fake one side by side, and you can see the little mistakes, the little things that ain’t quite right. The letters might be crooked, or the little hands on the watch face might be too short or too long.
It’s all in the details, they say. Just like pickin’ good corn, gotta look close, feel it, make sure it ain’t got no worms. Same with these watches, gotta look real close to see if you’re gettin’ a good one.
The thing is, these high imitation watches, they ain’t all bad. Some are pretty good, actually. And if you ain’t got the money for a real Rolex, well, one of these might just do the trick. Just don’t go around tellin’ folks it’s a real one, ’cause they might just laugh at ya.
And remember, a watch is just a watch. It tells the time. That’s it. Whether it’s a fancy Rolex or a high imitation, it ain’t gonna change who you are or what you do. It’s just a thing on your wrist, like a bracelet, but with numbers on it. So, don’t go gettin’ all worked up over it. Just find somethin’ you like, somethin’ you can afford, and be happy with it.
There’s plenty of folks out there wearin’ watches that ain’t no Rolex Super Clones and they get along just fine. A watch is just a tool, like a hammer or a hoe. It helps you do a job, and that’s all there is to it. So don’t be fooled by all the fancy talk and the high prices. Just get yourself a good watch, one that’ll last you a while, and be done with it.
And that’s all I got to say about that. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed the chickens.
