The problem is Jacob,that morality comes in all shapes and disguises.I like to call a spade a spade.
It is just to easy for people with no knowledge of watches,to be fooled by false marketing.
And most people who join a watch site,do so to get information and learn about watches.
So they need people with some experience of watches to give them some qualified answers.
You have learnt about watches by reading, or talking to people who have knowledge about them.
Having known you for many years,i know that you prefer if people tell you their honest opinions.
And i also know that you fully understand the marketing bullshit,that is in the watch world.
Why not pass this experience and information on to people who can put it to good use when
buying their next watch? What you say about my own personal meaning,could not be more true.
I mean,what else do we have my friend? This is a debate forum,and we have many different
opinions on watches here.And all of these opinions have a place here.Nobody has got the
absolute truth about watches in their repertoire.We give opinions,and we let people make
their own decisions.
                               I do not care if firms are fighting for their share of the market,they have
very big budgets compared to the average person.It is always the consumer that needs protection.
My sister has a son who is a director of a company that do nothing else but manipulate what
we all read on the net.He is a rich man,and business is thriving.The consumer is really up
against it today,and most of it is based on lies.So i think that if we can help new watch buyers
to find their way around the watch world,it is a good idea in my opinion.
We both know why i wrote this thread.  When someone posts something that is completely
untrue,and is a clear marketing trick designed to make people believe they are buying a watch
from an old established brand,and hand made,to boot,what is wrong with pointing this out?
I am not here to be a diplomat,i just give my opinion.If you disagree ,you write what you
disagree with,and we have a debate.
                              To be honest i get so tired of people on this site just back clapping
one another,you would think every watch ever made is great if you read this forum for
the first time  Just like our parents try to prepare us for the grown up world,i
am pleased my parents did not feel the need to be diplomatic or accept the lies we get
told everyday. I think many forget this when they enter the real world where telling lies
is just everyday business they like to call marketing.
