[Discussion] What are your hot takes or opinions you haven't yet posted for fear of downvoting? (alien.top)

In a post from a few days ago, I noticed that someone mentioned that they were afraid to post about their dislike of the Tudor BB58 for fear of downvoting. You know what? The BB is a boring watch that's not worth the money, and Tudor wouldn't be half as popular as it is without the connection to Rolex. If Rolexes were as attainable as they were in past years, cut that by a factor of 10. Would you really buy a BB if the reality were that you could just save a little bit more and get a Rolex Submariner? That's my hot take. What's yours?

Hamilton and all field watches are dork watches

Longines is not that great and only pushed on Reddit for some unknown reason

Lmao, “dork watch” is the perfect characterization for field watches.

I’m imagining them all posting on /r/edc and delicately staging their Hamilton khaki next to their knife, paracord keychain and waterproof “Field Notes” notebook
