Another difference that glared at me from the beginning was the numerals on the bezel were steel/aluminum colour on the fake where they looked contrasty white on the genuine.
The ultimate test is to send the fake back to ur friend instead. Not only to test how real the fake watch is but also to test how real is your friendship.
Some people might. My ex bought a “Samsung” through let go and was duped. She knows nothing about phones but found a used new model galaxy for 400 bucks and went for it.
"watch people" always know instantly. but in case you're hoping to impress people with your nice watch, 99.9% of people are not watch people. wish customers are people who saw a facebook ad. and if you look at the comments on a few facebook watch ads, you'll see that these are people who know NOTHING about the watch market. they might recognise a rolex, but they literally wouldn't know if a black bay 58 is a $4000 watch or a $200 watch. they don't know that seiko makes dive watches in dramatically different price ranges. they don't know that a $100 curren that looks like a child's toy is just some marketing parasite gouging people for a $20 watch. and they don't understand that watches are not like socks, in that they are never sold at a 90% discount off their normal (rather than imaginary) price but having said that, and despite my preference for $30 chinese-branded watches, imo mr town watch is working a bit hard to prove that watch people will notice the difference. of *course* we can tell ... instantly. but i think these watches work pretty well as harmless costume jewellery if you're just going for a certain look. because watch people are convinced everybody is going to judge the value of their watch ... but 99.9% not only don't recognise your watch (unless it's a rolex), they also literally wouldn't care whether or not you spent too much money on a watch. they don't think your watch is interesting, and they're dreading the moment when you tell them how much it costs. always buy watches for your own entertainment, not to impress other people
That's what I was trying to point out in the first video. Are the dimensions close enough that you could install an NH35 movement or anything else That's meant to fit the real deal and is it stainless steel or chrome plated?
Haha love these videos Josh! That Feiko is miles away from the real turtle. Love that fully automatic quartz movement...just a very extreme and consistent Miyota stutter we’re seeing 😂👍👍
As far as I'm concerned the only good thing about buying watches from wish and or geek is the fact that they're cheap and perfect for pieces parts and modding projects and experiments to play with rather than ruining good decent watches that aren't fakes
How to spot a fake Seiko: Check the alignment of bezel with chapter ring and the dial at 12 O'Clock If they are aligned, it's 101% FAKE @2:26 second hands on automatic watches don't jump, so the Feiko is the one on the right :)
@@mariog7213 pre-owned watch market is flooded with feikos, faulex etc And the fakes are getting better and better! In some cases it's hard to tell if you are holding a fake or genuine watch
Another great video! The Feikos are obvious to tell from the naked eye. Although, I have never owned a Seiko Turtle but they aren't that different from the Sumo models, which I am a proud owner of. I don't understand why anyone would go to lengths to make a Feiko when Seiko offers a variety of watches to suit different budgets. 🤷♂️ I get why fakes are produced for Rolex, Tudors etc but come on Seiko!
Because Seiko automatics are overpriced and now with the skx007 being discontinued you can have yourself a nicely made fake with a nh movement under $100 (even less at times). All my Feikos are of equal or better quality to the original. The only thing my Nemo is missing is the cyclops, but I'm not a fan of them anyway.
You don't understand why they knock off Seikos? The real auto PADI is like 500 bucks. There are two markets for these fakes. 1) If they can produce a fake for 50 bucks and sell it for 150 to people willing to buy fakes to save $350. 2)Then sell a some for actual genuine retail to unsuspecting buyers thinking they're getting the real thing. They are making a killing. Especially in China, where most still live in poverty. A real example of pointless knock-offs are Casio watches. Their famous little plastic FW series are only about 15 bucks in Walmart. Yet i'ts nearly impossible to get a genuine on Ebay or Amazon. There are more fakes than real for a $15 plastic watch.
Thank you for the multiple shoutouts. Appreciate that brother. Feiko 🤣!!! Love it. The dial on the Feiko looks decent but the quartz tick and the bezel is done horribly. Amazing they were close with the measurements.
Great video. I bought a 23 jewel automatic Seiko 5 watch in Abu Dhabi in 1980. I have worn it almost every day since and it has never been mollycoddled, serviced or maintained. It's still running but quickly winds down when not worn and loses about 5 minutes a day. Coincidentally, also in 1980, I bought an almost identical Seiko 5 for my brother in law. He has a number of watches and a few days ago I half jokingly asked him if he had any spare watches to sell as my Seiko 5 was past its best. He said that he still had the Seiko 5 that I had bought him 40 years ago. The steel bracelet was broken and it has been in a drawer for at least 35 years as it wasn't cost effective to repair. To cut a long story short he gave me his Seiko 5 which I have repaired using part of the bracelet from my old watch. It looks almost new, keeps perfect time and holds its auto wind charge for at least 20 hours (I haven't tested it longer). Oh happy days!
Of course the lume pip, lettering, and the slimmer pointy case is the fake padi. Glad you bring this up. Hate to tell this, but these feikos abnoxiously swarm up massively. Asia is the epicentrum, my hometown is one of it. As for me, i'm a bit of seiko hoarder, but strict to vintage only. Enjoying your video marathon so much, i barely sleeping.
I'd never be dumb enough to waste my money on a watch from Wish, I'm saving my money to order a Lomborghini Adventador from them. But seriously, if you order a Turd-le from Wish, you'll get what you pay for, and a lot less.
The quartz movement when it says automatic is a dead giveaway. I mean the tudor at least had an automatic movement and was pretty decent for a clone, noone would know and it's not like you're wearing a knockoff patek philippe or richard mille that would be a huge striking difference.
I bought a seiko, automatic turtle from wish. What turned up was a chrome plated alloy quartz. Got my money back purely as the movement was advertised as automatic and it was quartz...I thought I could use it for parts...NONE of it was desirable.
Fakes: Horology's answer to costume jewellery. It's a real watch, it's just not a real Seiko. The reason that the Feiko isn't brushed on the case is because thecase isn't stainless steel. It's most likely chrome-plated pot metal. All in all though, with the exception of the movement, the Feiko didn't do too badly for $27. LOL
Shouldn't say automatic if it isn't. What I found odd on the automatic I looked at for 13.00 it said hollow. If it's automatic it shouldn't be hollow. It says to wind occasionally but you shouldn't have to if it's automatic
I’ve got the Genuine PADI Turtle with the Pepsi bezel cost me £320. The price of the $27.00 fake says it all. If it’s too good to be true it always is my father always taught me as a kid. The Fake water resistance should have an extra m on the 200 to make it max depth of 200 mm 😂 Great Video *Subscribed.
You can buy a fake Tudor on wish if you know that is fake. Of course you can't expect a real one or a perfect replica for 80(?)$, but if you want to get a "good looking toy watch", well, I think wish is okay
I have just purchased this watch again thinking it was automatic but like yours it was battery.i complained to wish and I got my money back.its wrong that they do that.you no it's not real for that money but it should be at least automatic.liking your review.
Perhaps some will be genuine, I don’t know. If you receive fake watches that were advertised as genuine, I would let them know so you can get your money back.
I just found your channel, Nov/22/20 the Tudor BB 58 from Wish and I laughed so hard that I had to subscribe. Keep up the Great work, it made my day. lol
dude, it's insane how the faiko can get shit aligned properly compared to the usual Seiko issues. Look at that 6 a clock with the red line. Not sure why Seiko is still struggling with the same issue now, for decades.
You forgot to mention that the Fako, being a quartz chrystal instead of an Automatic is probably more accurate than the real thing. A time base of 365,000/second as opposed to 7/second means it should be accurate to about a second every 45 days, as opposed to the Automatics second every 8-15 days. The Quartz movement is not position dependent and you could go months without wearing it and you would put is on and it would be on time withiin 2-3 seconds. I decided not to buy one of those as I supposed it really was an Automatic movement.
I fail to see the point of this. I have a "Fake" nemo prospex and it's easy to spot. The fake has a 90 click bezel and poor lume of course but yhe number on the back is always the same and doesn't trace to any model. But as for comparing to the "real one" is just pointless. My fake is running at less than 5 seconds a day on the wrist way better than my presage. Water proofing is excellent and has withstood water sking. As for the real one. The chapter ring is way off, the strap is exactly the same as the fake as is the bezel insert, the movement and case can be made in the same place as the fake as in nh35 as opposed to 4r35 or 36 so not all real ones are made in Japan and they cost upto 5x the price. I think you need to define real rather than fake. .
The fake is so obvious. This is not even a good fake. I could see several things wrong in the first shot. Without getting into everything that is wrong, Seiko does not make a quartz Version . Also, the Padi has a sunray blue dial. The Bezel on the Facko looks terrible and the crown is wrong. The print at the 6 is also conpletely wrong. There is a lot more. I will also say the Seiko has fully removable links, while the facko has several permanent links.
@@AliasEveWatches There is a lot wrong, many things that were not brought up. Thanks actually have a J1 Padi Turtle, The real Seiko here is a K1. The Feiko has the wrong text on the dial and the caseback is not even close.
The fake looks little better at this distance. And the prospex have awful chapter ring alignment. But the fake is quartz. How stupid would you have to be.
Has no one thought of buying a fake seiko from wish and a real one from Macy’s, only to return the fake one to Macy’s and get your money back? There’s no way those old hacks that work in the jewelry department will know the difference. I’ve talked to all of them, they’re clueless as to what they sell.
I’m sure someone has tried it and done it. I do not recommend or condone this kind of stuff though. This would be called stealing. I do agree with you that the people who sell watches at Macy’s are clueless though.
The fake was awful. I bet the watch dies, if you got it wet. Water could get into the quartz movement. Don´t even try and dive with it. The fake was terrible. I guess at the 27 dollar price, they probably could not find a cheap automatic movement to put in hence the quartz.
You know whats also straits Forward with this thats funny. with more (irony)...lol. THE Feiko is quartz and 3X more Accurate than the $390 Chinese caliber watch I thought was a funny thing not to mention.lol.
YHANK YOU Wish. So technically you should say buy watches from wish? bec 98% they are the same, The Original one is around $900, and the Feiko Is $27 !!, so Feiko Wins for the majority of people, specially in many countries around the world you need a year of hard working to save $900
you could get a perfectly good Timex for the same price as a fake Seiko from Wish. I have no idea why anyone would want to buy such an obvious fake watch.
I’m not trying to yuck anyone’s yum here....but it’s glaringly obvious. Anyone not expecting a fake watch from wish is an ignorant fool. I don’t think there could possibly be any way a reasonable person with an understanding of retail consumption could think otherwise.
Bought a New Upgrade Red/Blue Seiko Watch Men's Watch Special Edition Diving Men's Watch Fashion Blue, seiko-luxury edition. Description said automatic. Same as the one in this review. I always thought Automatic meant self winding. Mine from Wish is battery. Took off the metal band, cause they pull arm hair! Took a shower, watch leaked. Checked the back plate and it was loose. Watch is dried out, for 20 bucks we will see if it runs more that a few days! Watch looks great through! Don't know how these can pass US Customs, oh wait, Biden is president! Never mind! I usually wear Casio Divers...They last for years and years.......
All you need now is a pair of Mike sneakers and May Dan sunglasses.
Lol! Thanks for watching Manus!

If you're making a modded seiko the case alone is 80 bucks, kinda worth getting the wish watch for the parts.
Not a bad point!
That's what I was trying to point out in the first video. Are the dimensions close enough that you could install an NH35 movement or anything else That's meant to fit the real deal and is it stainless steel or chrome plated?
With the quartz version of the Feikos you may run into some issues installing a NH movement.

You forgot to mention that the Fako, being a quartz chrystal instead of an Automatic is probably more accurate than the real thing. A time base of 365,000/second as opposed to 7/second means it should be accurate to about a second every 45 days, as opposed to the Automatics second every 8-15 days. The Quartz movement is not position dependent and you could go months without wearing it and you would put is on and it would be on time withiin 2-3 seconds. I decided not to buy one of those as I supposed it really was an Automatic movement.
The second hand.
Thanks for watching!
If a factory is located in china, all bets are off as far as honesty, the so called Seiko factories there no doubt sell parts to anyone.
I fail to see the point of this. I have a "Fake" nemo prospex and it's easy to spot. The fake has a 90 click bezel and poor lume of course but yhe number on the back is always the same and doesn't trace to any model. But as for comparing to the "real one" is just pointless. My fake is running at less than 5 seconds a day on the wrist way better than my presage. Water proofing is excellent and has withstood water sking. As for the real one. The chapter ring is way off, the strap is exactly the same as the fake as is the bezel insert, the movement and case can be made in the same place as the fake as in nh35 as opposed to 4r35 or 36 so not all real ones are made in Japan and they cost upto 5x the price. I think you need to define real rather than fake.

The fake one is quartz
The fake is a quartz movement
the first thing i would do is take the caseback off. get a look at they automatic mechanical quartz
Not even need of that, all quartz movements do one tick per second. Mechanicals either 3 or 4.
yes true, however seiko may have released a dead seconds without any fanfare... you know, one of the more obscure and complicated mechanisms
This guy slow? Why do people today sound slow? Right watch is a quartz movement. Left watch is an automatic movement. Notice immediately.
Fake ? No way, do mean that Rolex I bought for €20 wasn't real ?
its easy to see the fake Seiko.s its 9 times out of 10 better than the OG.

There’s no way those old hacks that work in the jewelry department will know the difference. I’ve talked to all of them, they’re clueless as to what they sell.
I’m sure someone has tried it and done it. I do not recommend or condone this kind of stuff though. This would be called stealing. I do agree with you that the people who sell watches at Macy’s are clueless though.
The fake was awful. I bet the watch dies, if you got it wet. Water could get into the quartz movement. Don´t even try and dive with it. The fake was terrible. I guess at the 27 dollar price, they probably could not find a cheap automatic movement to put in hence the quartz.
You’re probably right! Thanks for watching!
Don't buy anything from wish
Oh yeah easy.
Thanks for watching!
A Fake one is QUARTZ
A Real one is AUTOMATIC
SIMPLE!
You know whats also straits Forward with this thats funny.
with more (irony)...lol.
THE Feiko is quartz and 3X more Accurate than the $390 Chinese caliber watch I thought was a funny thing not to mention.lol.
Simple to watch enthusiast. Not so simple to unsuspecting people getting into the hobby.
Come on they are the same
YHANK YOU Wish. So technically you should say buy watches from wish? bec 98% they are the same, The Original one is around $900, and the Feiko Is $27 !!, so Feiko Wins for the majority of people, specially in many countries around the world you need a year of hard working to save $900
Don't make a mistake and send Average Bloke back the Wish Watch...
I might accidentally give Avg. Joe the Feiko! Thanks for watching!
@@TheTownWatch Send both the watches back to Average to be on the safe side...
that feiko looks so crap... haha
you could get a perfectly good Timex for the same price as a fake Seiko from Wish. I have no idea why anyone would want to buy such an obvious fake watch.
Come on buddy you bought them because you wanted them and not to educate ppl!
😂 I have zero interest in owning fake watches! Nice try though!
@@TheTownWatch lol Fair enough!
@@NathanChisholm041 I still have the Feiko, it just sits on my shelf collecting dust. Need to figure out what to do with it.
@@TheTownWatch take it to a gun range and blast it lol
I’m not trying to yuck anyone’s yum here....but it’s glaringly obvious. Anyone not expecting a fake watch from wish is an ignorant fool. I don’t think there could possibly be any way a reasonable person with an understanding of retail consumption could think otherwise.
I totally agree Levi! I’m sure there are enough ignorant people out there though they they dupe some people
@@TheTownWatch true man, there is a reason for warning labels 😂
You bought a quartz Feiko. That was your first mistake. Dude. Delete this video, you are making a fool of yourself.
🙏❤️
Bought a New Upgrade Red/Blue Seiko Watch Men's Watch Special Edition Diving Men's Watch Fashion
Blue, seiko-luxury edition. Description said automatic. Same as the one in this review. I always thought Automatic meant self winding. Mine from Wish is battery. Took off the metal band, cause they pull arm hair! Took a shower, watch leaked. Checked the back plate and it was loose. Watch is dried out, for 20 bucks we will see if it runs more that a few days! Watch looks great through! Don't know how these can pass US Customs, oh wait, Biden is president! Never mind! I usually wear Casio Divers...They last for years and years.......
A real Seiko for 27 dollars??? Come on man, sure this is fake.
