Adee Kaye automatic watch

Based on what I can see, it appears to be a basic jewelry store fashion watch with a Chinese movement inside.

I have questions...but, in keeping with the spirit of WC I will let this pass.

Wear it in good health.

Aurelian. I’m confused by your statement. What is your question? What are you letting pass?

Only mention of the brand I've ever seen was on TV watch shows some years ago.

I applaud Aurelian and his self control.

I was just looking for some information on a watch I did not know anything about. Didn’t think it would elicit snide remarks from watch snobs. Do us all a favor and keep your pompous ass remarks to your self. Some of us just like watches. They all don’t have ti be Rolex’s

Directed at me? Sorry, I am not a Rolex snob. I don't know anything about the brand and I am not inclined to research it.

What I meant was that there are design choices that brands make due to how they source their parts. Established brands and microbrands that have a coherent design ethos have a certain look because they assemble watches with this ethos in mind and do not substitute.

All that I would do would be to criticize this watch company for their decisions. That wouldn't answer your question and would not serve to make this a more inviting forum. It is much easier to tear down than to build up.

The problem that I have is that I am a leveler. I would burn it all to the ground. That's why I am an uneasy fit on this forum.

I will go further if you want me to, but I won't go there uninvited.

Watch snobs come in all sorts, in all price ranges, with all the ranges of collecting experience. There is no accepted definition of "good" watch or "bad" watch. It is all a matter of taste.

I agree with your statements. Your comment as well as the comment of others brought nothing to the conversation. I see from all your posts that you have a wide knowledge of watches. A true comment to my post would be greatly appreciated from someone like yourself. Every one has opinions and are entitled to express them regardless if someone agrees or disagrees. Your response was frustrating

To the extent that your comments were directed at me, I assure you that there was nothing snide behind the comments. Jewelry stores often commission watches with their logos on them that are made by other brands -- there's nothing new about this, you can look to the past and the Tiffany & Co. dials that adorn models from the likes of Patek Phillippe, VC and others.

My comment wasn't intended to scoff at the watch -- I was merely pointing out my observations of the watch: (1) it appears to be from a Beverly Hills based jewelry store, which means that it's not from a watchmaking company, so there's no real horological history there; and (2) the movement appears to have originated in China.

That's it. There was no judgment there.

JBird. Your all good exactly the response I was looking for and expecting from this post
