Why do people buy cars that depreciate in value?
Why do people buy $1200 cell phones that slow down and lose battery capacity after a few years?
We buy these things because it's fun and we have enjoyment from them.
Enjoy the hobby my friend.
I don't have an issue with the watch itself, I had YG daydate and 116613s... They are fun to wear. I just don't like when there is misinformation like "it really matches 18k gold Rolex" or "it feels like gen" etc being spread.

I do it for the same reason I buy any rep - to live the fantasy of owning something I would never buy in gen. I've never owned a gen Sub FG so these feel just like all my other reps in terms of weight and that's perfectly fine by me. No one else handles my reps so the weight of these FG reps is a moot point.
I have 8 FG/TT reps. If you take good care of them they can last a good while. Most of mine are close to two years old and still look brand new.
I put cell phone protective film on all the clasps and two links either side to prevent scratches. It works well. None of mine have any scatches or fading. You can buy pre-cut kits to do the whole watch, some people do this on their gens. If applied properly it's very hard to tell it's even there.

Are these watches you posted two plus years? Good job keeping them fresh.
Where do you find these protective films and what do you even search for.

Yes they are. I keep all of my watches as new.
I cut out the film I used from leftover cell phone sheets. I use Best Skins ever, a product that truly lives up to its name IMO.

Several companies make the pre-cut ones

Why does a Dog lick his testicles?
Because he can.

Thanks for sharing. I ordered a DIY kit and will probably have to load some new blades in to my carpet knife.

Only those capable of licking their own testicles can edit their own posts.

You’ve changed your tune pal. Didn’t you previously have “concerns” about the weight of the Smurf and the lack thereof impacting your ability to wear and enjoy it.
