The OPs are indeed very simple/basic watches, with clearly too much hype based only on similarly basic and pastel colored dials. A strange phenomenon indeed. But if taken for the basic, easy to wear pieces that they are (plus a little splash of color), then it is easy to appreciate, without all the fanfare. In my wife’s case, she doesn’t follow all the watch hoopla and will surely beat this one up as a daily beater, which will be nice to see a watch worn normally…although I will cringe and she’d a tear over every little scratch or mark that I may notice in time 😳🤣.
