I could have bought a bucket of them when I was in Shanghai yesterday, for about $3 each. If China is awash with counterfeit watches, etc., I never saw any for sale.

I still can't get over dollar watches selling for 40 bucks , when I was a kid the local tobacco growers asso. had marked them down to get rid of them ,there was a full card and about 4 on another, I told my father we should buy all of them, we would never need another watch ! he snorted and replied that they were not worth a dollar , wouldn't he have a fit now !!

I predict those cheap quartz watches of today well become the collectible "dollar watches" of fifty years from now.
