I am seriously considering purchasing a replica watch. Bear with me - I have a reason! My father passed away a couple of years ago, and I remember him always saying that he wanted a Zenith watch. It's the only brand I ever heard him mention and I seem to remember him owning a timepiece that sticks in my mind as having the gold 'star' and having a grey, blue and red face. It would probably have been a replica itself as he certainly wasn't a wealthy man. I don't know why this particular memory stays with me but recently I've been thinking a lot about it. Maybe because I have a son of my own now too. Anyway, I can never see myself owning an original, but I am thinking a replica would be nice. My question is basically does anyone have any experience of a modern day replica? Are they tremendously bad and be useless within a few months, or will they keep adequate time?
