[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?

99% of watches don’t need lume. Yes, it’s a cool feature to have, but to pretend it’s necessary or even a deal breaker for a watch is comical

Agree it’s not a dealbreaker but I’d rather have good lume than a date indicator.
