Hmmmm, interesting discount, on a £1795 priced watch, that discount code reduces the price to £274.20! :flushed:

:joy: mental. What on earth is going on here.

85% off although looking on ebay for the same watches that figure still looks a bit high :joy:

I can see they have partnerships with other clubs but the only one which seemingly had a watch made was QPR which was priced similarly

Not sure what commercially this partnership brings, and it looks like they have a few sporting partnerships, but the watches themselves are just homages to Rolex, AP, Patek etc.

If people like them fair enough but dont spend more than a couple of hundred quid on one, from a quality perspective I expect the cases and the bracelets to be tat, and the sellita movements are a bog standard generic swiss automatic, serviceable workhorse but nothing special.

They’ll probably be setting up a stall at the Sunday market :grin:

I mean I’ve bought a “replica” watch on a trip to Turkey and I’ll bet the quality of that isn’t any different to these, probably come from the same warehouses :grin:

The designs look very similar to some Rolex’s and using the phrase moonphase is a nod to Omega.

As I say interesting discount, seem a bit of a weird link up for the club, there must be some benefit.

That’s pretty damning, what a weird link up for WFC! 85% off makes it seem a bargain, but take a step back, would you pay £300 for a watch brand you’ve never heard of? Mental!

I’ll wait till I go to Salu and get one off the lucky lucky man.

To be honest they’ve probably sent Sadler and Boycott a complementary watch and said the club can have 10% (or whatever) of Sales hence the code to use so they can use to track it. Every little helps.

Not like Christopher ward who are a sleeve sponsor for Everton who though a lot may not have heard of them are a genuinely good quality British/Swiss watch brand.

Haven’t worn a watch for years now, just use my phone. Will never go back to wearing a watch but I have noticed that they have become a popular accessory again.

Apple Watch did it for most wearers, including myself - if the smart ring is launched as suspected, I think watches will become fashionable again (just not these knock offs)

From over a grand to £200 with a.
Discount code?
Sounds like the kinda dodgy crap watch you’d get from watch gang or wowcher pretending to be luxury
I’d be careful with these , get a tissot

Wouldn’t trust it at all, no luxury watch brqnd gives you 85% off all over the internet . Fake online price to think you have a bargain.
Legit company but common tactic for unknown ‘ luxury ‘ brands
If your gonna spend that much get a ‘ swiss made ‘ not a ‘ Swiss movement ‘ watch from a brand with resale value and history like tissot , tag heuer or even an omega
