Watches

Can’t believe I’m going to say this but there are some really great value watches from Chinese brands in AliExpress. 

Becoming a weird niche area of interest for me.

Absolutely. Keep in mind these are often looked at as “homage” watches but many of the brands have their own flavour added to some classic styles.

Most popular is probably San Martin. Mostly Rolex homages but with their own twists. Good quality and value.

Next is Merkur, which has a bunch of sub-brands like Pierre Paulin. I actually own this jump hour and love it.

Recently discovered Farasute. Definitely strong homage vibes but reviews I’ve read say the quality is pretty good.
