Friend of mine collects watches. Know the difference between a Tag Hauer or Omega and a knock-off Tag Hauer or Omega?

The name.

The movements for both are made in China, and the good knock-offs use the same OEM movements.

As far as the heavy clunk of doors, my buddy's A5 is a rattler and always has been while Hyundai has gone overboard. And the nice thing about Google emails is I almost never get them. Apple? for some reason it thinks I care that they have the new Nikkie Minaj single.

None of this shit is branding.

-I have a friend that is a smithy and a watch repair-woman. She advised me on the watch I bought for my wife and made sure first and foremost that I stayed away from the two brands you mentioned.
