Why Watch Brands Copy Each Other

Описание: Why do modern watches all feel… familiar?

From dive watches to chronographs, heritage reissues to “new” releases that somehow look decades old, the modern watch landscape is stuck in a strange loop. Everything feels polished. Everything feels expensive. And yet everything feels the same.

In this video, I explore why original watch design has slowed to a crawl, why brands keep copying the same silhouettes, and why collectors (often unknowingly) reward familiarity over risk.

This isn’t a rant.
It’s a look at nostalgia, safety, psychology, marketing pressure and our own role in shaping the watch industry we claim to criticise.

If you’ve ever wondered:
• Why so many watches look interchangeable
• Why “heritage” has become a creative crutch
• Why true originality feels rare, but still matters
• And whether we really want innovation… or just reassurance

Then this one’s for you!

Be excellent to each other!
