Wearing a watch that seems more expensive than the car you drive gives you an unexplainable thrill. The small edge one gets when someone glances in your direction, then quietly walks with herself like she just hopped off her yacht, though she has actually taken the public bus.
That is the fairytale world of superclone watches, specially designed to resemble almost exact replicas of what you’d find in the originals-individual hours put into the tiniest details down to imitating the weight of an authentic watch resting on your wrist. Superclone captures luxury without the accompanying price of a Rolex, Patek Philippe, or Audemars Piguet. For most people, it is less about status and more about being able to enjoy artistry.
The Allure of the Clone
For most people, it’s not about fooling others. It’s focused on indulging in the feeling of luxury without the luxury price tag. High-end watches can go for a house down payment—superclones, on the other hand, let you get that taste of design and craftsmanship at a fraction of the price.
