Du har ret i det angående alle de billige 500-1000 kina modeller og underlige mærker som Invicta og lignende.
Derimod så tager du 100% fejl angående alle micro brands som Helson og lignende, da de koster "noget" og folk vil købe og bære dem med stolthed, så de vil overleve i en grad, sådan at de vil blive til vidunderlige kuriositeter for vintage samlere om 30 år Icon_e_biggrin
Husk lige at det er ikke noget nyt fænomen, micro brands/ garage brands har altid været til stede i urverdenen og giver os i dag en dejlig indsigt i fortiden!

Prøv at forestille dig en verden hvor alle går med Seiko, Omega, Rolex eller bedre, er det ikke lidt simpelt og farveløst Icon_cool Eller er vi ude i noget bedrevidende snobberi Icon_evil
I agree with you about the snobbery , and the fact that we will get nothing new without new brands . But Brands like Helson and others will not survive . They are only interested in the money and they bring nothing at all to watchmaking . Just look a brand like Nomos to see how it is done . You can fool a lot of the public for a while , but when they have to sell one of these micro brand watches the truth hits them between the eyes . Watch dealers generally leave this type of brand alone because they know that they are basically just design watches like Gucci etc etc . To even think that these watches with a basic caliber costing a few dollars will have any lasting value is a joke . And i rate Invicta to be just as good as Helson , and thats not saying much .

Hvis du kendte til urenes historie, så ville du vide at du tager fejl!
Micro brand LeJour ano 1970 Valjoux 7734, Patent PVD urkasse. Interessant for vintage ursamlere
İmage

Og det er bare et micro brand og der findes mange andre vintage micro brands og de er skam ikke anderledes end dem man har i dag.
Det skulle undre mig meget at historien ikke gentager sig, til stor fornøjelse for fremtidens samlere.

Jeg går ikke ud fra at du har ejet alle disse ure som du nedgør og nok heller ikke har haft nogen "bred" samling af vintage ure, så det er måske rart at pointerer at det du skriver er baseret på holdning og ikke viden Icon_e_biggrin
