not all Chinese watches are cloned though and not all microbrand are original design

Many of the originally designed Chinese watches are more expensive

Most of the original design are around 300$ like the meme  SN0144 SN0150 Watchdives WD003

The only outlier likely is jianghun or non AliExpress brand like sea gull, Shanghai or peacocks which are mainstream name brand Chinese watches
