That is an insanely basic looking watch...You may not be able to find one with internals the same quality, but you can find one that looks similar and has the same basic functions for an affordable price....

You just wont be able to keep accurate time for 5000 years with out adjusting it...

Well point them out to me then. I've been looking for a while now and have no found anything I like as much. And I'm not resorting to Chinese knock-offs.

I never quite understand why people want to spend such obscene amounts of money on a time-keeping accessory.

Unless of course to serve the needs of the ego .

most shitty, cheap watches lose or gain seconds or even minutes over the course of weeks or months.  good watches don't.

Seriously, they have no watches cheaper than even $100. These people sure are taking advantage of their brand name rep, it appears
I don't really like the look, though

You can spend a lot more than that if you so wished. 1.8k is cheap in watch standards.
