THIS is the kind of watch you buy if you see other people with fancy watches and want in on it...I am not a fan.

Why? The whole thing is ruined by the fake screw look and I just ain't a fan of the octogon

If you want people to know you can spend tens of thousands on a watch this is the way.

some rich people have entire collections with just 40 of these in it.

I'd actually rather save 99% money and get a Casio GA-2100, which is dubbed the "Casi oak"

I do like the clean lines, but I feel like I've seen similar Vostoks for a fraction of the price.

You were definitely born 50 years too late

You're too fancy for this generation

I never like Audemars regardless of the type. If I was rich enough to buy luxury watches it would be stuff like Bovet and Louis Moinet. Those brands look really cool.

Yeah, the thing is the AP will be more accurate, more reliable, have better finishing and other things. Though this isn't a fair comparison, the AP will be better in almost every way, as you'd expect from a watch that could cost 20-40 grand. But a vostok is 99% cheaper and a steal for what you get at that price point, so there are no arguments from me about it.
