What's your guilty pleasure?
I'm not talking about the quirky but respected microbrand or the budget gem that gets fairly widespread praise. What's a watch you love that would get snubbed by most of the watch community? I'll go first:
I know the Fossil Blue BQ-9166 is a demonstrably cheap watch, with a mass produced quartz movement, rough finishing, and folded-link bracelet. But it also has a pretty striking coppery brown dial, a funky design that feels at least partially thought out, and a calendar complication. I've had this thing for over 20 years and I still like it.

I'm a simple man. I like pretty, well-made watches and breakfast food.

I used to get one of these every 6 months or so from Costco - they would fall apart on me, or I would smash them into a million pieces, because I used to be an active human being. Loved them!!! Just look at that! Beautiful.
I like loads of Ali Express homages, that the general watch community can be judgemental of. No Judgement on WC though 🍻
I also love a brown dial 👌

That brown dial is nice looking! I think pagani tends to pack a lot of spec for cheap, no hate here for that.
