Amazon Essentials Watches

So I think I'm up for a badge if I create this post.

Has anybody gotten the call on an Amazon Essential timepiece?

You need to make this into a poll with a choice between YES and NO.

It's all the rage😜

Did you get your badge?

That would require a new post. But there is a pollster badge as we all know....

Yes, @madminuteman I instantaneously got the Content Creator badge so I don't know why I'm even bothering with this thread anymore. Perhaps someone will comment on the nefariousness of Amazon finding out what sells best and then screwing the sellers that helped them on that by making their own version. Well, having their own version made. I doubt they own the means of production.

The Amazon AD gave you THE Call?🤣😂 I guess haven’t spent enough at BezosMart.

Did not know these even exist

Closing in my next badge. Wristy 180, on target for this weekend.

I don't mind cheap quartz watches. It's only at the sub $60ish folded metal mechanical watches where I draw my personal line.

My $25 Winner worked fine for a few months.

You made me actually look at it as I wondered how this can cost about as much as a Casio F-91W. The answer seems to be because it doesn't really do anything more. The two circular subdials hilariously share the day function. And they oddly chose ThFS for the small one. It is 50m over 30m water resistance though.

My guess SKMEI is producing some of these "essentials.. Anyways, in the end it all comes down to display-layout, design, comfort and functionality 🍻

I do believe that SKMEI, like Armitron, is known for overly elaborate digital geegaws that do very basic functions.

I noticed I have lots of badges I didn't know anything about. I wonder if I have accumulated enough to have earned my Badge badge.
