First off, that whole “weird core lemon” thing? No clue what that’s about, maybe some kinda viral TikTok trend I’m too old to understand. But the *real* lemon here is thinking you’re gonna get a genuine anything for a buck at the dollar store. I mean, come ON.
And the serial number thing? Yeah, the Savvy replica watchmakers are getting sneaky. It’s like, they’re putting more effort into faking it than actually, you know, *making* something real. I saw this thing about asking the brand if it’s authentic, which is a good idea, but kinda feels like admitting you already suspect it’s a dud, right?
Then you got the “fake security camera” part. Okay, totally different topic, but it does make you think about the whole… deception thing. Like, are we just surrounded by fake stuff? Are my friends real? Existential crisis time, anyone?
Now, about the ticking. That’s the oldest trick in the book, right? “Real watches don’t tick!” But honestly, even *I’ve* heard some pretty quiet ticks from supposedly “nice” watches. So, I dunno, maybe my ears are just super-sensitive. Or maybe the quality has just gone down the drain. Or *maybe* everything is fake.
Honestly, the whole thing is kinda depressing. Like, we’re living in a world where you gotta be a freakin’ detective just to make sure your wristwatch isn’t a plastic monstrosity glued together with hope and dreams. Is it even worth it? Maybe we should all just go back to sundials. Okay, maybe not. But seriously, the dedication it takes to scrutinize for authenticity, whether it’s finding the serial number etched in the right spot or paying attention to the way the watch *feels* – it’s all too much.
Anyway, back to the dollar store. Let’s be real – if you’re buying a watch at the dollar store, you *know* it’s fake. You’re not fooling anyone. You’re probably buying it for a kid to destroy, or maybe as a gag gift. And honestly? That’s okay. Just don’t go around pretending you’re rocking a Rolex you snagged for a dollar twenty-five. Because, come on, that’s just embarrassing.
