Invicta Irony?
Have you received a badge on Watch Crunch for a brand that you dislike and for which you only have bad experiences?
I just received the Invicta badge, and it is just such a brand for me. I have nothing good to say about Invicta, as I had some bad experiences with both their watches and their warranty.
I know there are lots of Invicta fans, and I would never talk down to someone who likes Invicta, but I also won't pretend to like Invicta.
Anyway, my poll question is about receiving a badge you don't really want. Is it a case of Invicta Irony? 🤣 I say it is. I earned this badge through writing negative experiences with Invicta. I never have anything positive to say about the brand.

I've been collecting for a few years and have a decent collection of mostly budget and entry-level watches with a few mid-tier watches. I consider myself a lucky watch enthusiast, as the six watches i...

I have a Seiko badge, but I don't own a Seiko watch nor do I ever post / comment about the Seiko watches. I think I got it from posting / commenting about "Grand Seiko", and the Seiko word got picked up - to prove again that Grand Seiko is just Seiko with a Grand in front of it. 😀
I have a Rolex badge, despite having pretty much zero interest in the brand. People sure love tagging Rolex in their posts, so I suppose that's how I got it.

People tag Seiko in a lot of posts, even if it's not really directly related to Seiko.

I don't need no stinking badges.....
You have earned that badge.
I got a Rolex badge as one of my first which I did find mildly annoying as I would never buy a new one.
I had been active in discussions about the poor Rolex AD experience so I suppose that will teach me!
I have responded to many posts, just in the course of normal conversation. Often, these posts carry multiple hashtags. Whenever you do that, WatchCrunch keeps count. I have had many discussions about Grand Seiko and Rolex, despite that fact that I could never afford either brand; and most of those discussions were me, as a newbie, asking questions to other people ABOUT those brands. Nevertheless, I jabbered so many times, I earned badges for both.
I have a Swatch badge. Surely that was received for saying so many times that the MoonSwatch is plastic piece of junk.
I drank the Kool Aid!
Yeah got a Rolex one? I can't remember saying anything about the brand . I only like 2 of their offerings. Explorer and Explorer II
I have a Seiko badge, weird as I don't own one
I hope to have a Grand Seiko badge. I long for the watch and badge. LOL
