My experience comes from two very different ends of the market.
Two watches I wear in my life are my 1995 Seamaster and a £30 Tandorio field watch from Ali express.
The Seamaster sees the shower daily, no drama
The Tandorio up until Monday got pummeled in my car mechanic job that I now left. It got every fluid on it known to man, and would go from wrist to the bottom of the bath to “soak” the grime off and would stay there for 20-30 mins while I cleansed with absolutely no intrusion at all despite the temperatures.
I agree. For me the build quality of the bracelets and the lack of precious metals makes it a daft choice….though I don’t doubt they keep better time than all Rolex.
