Hmmm a gen Rolex or a cheap investment property? I wonder which will make me money! lol It's a no brainer fellas. Watches are for telling time. Now we have electronics that do that for us so watches are now purely cosmetic. How is it that rep companies can make gen knock offs that look as good and work as good for 1/100th of the price? Long story short gen watches area rip off. People have been over paying for years. Have you ever tried to resell a gen? You loose 25 to 50% of the value. You can never sell a gen for what you paid. If you invested 7500 into the stock market and got back 5000 would that be a good deal? Of course not so why is it different for watches. All my rep lovers keep being smart and resourceful. There is simply no longer any justification for spending thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands on a gen watch, especially during these economic times.
