Christopher Ward + Bark & Jack ( Adrian Barker ) make a Rolex Submariner and the Internet is MAD

Opinions matter. If you’re opinionated like me… they really matter. I’m full of tons of opinions — Unpopular opinions: I don’t like the Rolex Daytona, I don’t like the Omega Speedmaster… And I really don’t care that it went to the moon, I don’t like brands and watch industry people always trying to convince you that luxury watches are not overpriced, and I really don’t like Youtubers (possibly blinded by fame and paychecks) becoming less authentic.  Now for the drama. Christopher Ward teamed up with Adrian Barker from the Bark & Jack brand to create a collaborative watch.  In reality… The watch looks nice. In truth… The watch looks 95% like a Rolex. No controversy there — Christopher Ward has been making Rolex homage watches for decades. The controversy is in the controversy. Critiques made by smaller Youtube channels regarding the familiar look, the increased price, and the overwhelming positive praise given to the Christopher Ward brand by the watch publication community were critiqued by more powerful Youtubers. Is it unfair to have an opinion? Let’s talk about it.
