History of Watches and Watch Brands
Mankind has used the sun, water, candles, sand, pendulum, weights, springs, electric current, tuning forks, quartz crystal, ammonia atomic clock, cesium atomic clock.
Many different persons lay claim to the invention of the same advancements. An example of this is the system of winding and setting through the crown. It seems as if everybody has tried to claim this as their own invention. Some watch makers/companies claim to have invented such mechanisms but never had them patented.
For whatever reason, many people purchase watches that cost thousands of dollars and render the wearer liable to get their hand chopped off while walking home from a posh cocktail party. For everyone else, a replica watch is an inexpensive and sometimes gives the impression that you are wearing - for example the genuine Rolex while you are catering the posh cocktail party.
Many different people purchase replica Rolex watches. Some already own a Rolex but prefer to keep it in a safe tucked away and want an imitation for when they go out. For others, they like the look of a genuine brand and want the replica without spending thousands of dollars that a real Rolex may cost. Although it sounds like an oxymoron there are genuine Rolex fakes. In other words, there is a lot of variance in the quality of replica Rolex watches ranging from the Swiss high quality replicas, to the lesser Chinese replicas.
