3 EASY WAYS TO SPOT A CHEAP WATCH

TALLEY & TWINE'S TIPS FOR SPOTTING A CHEAP WATCH - WHAT TO LOOK FOR

1. MATERIALS

Look at the product description to determine what materials the watch is made of. If the watch is made of metal, be sure it's made using a metal like stainless steel that won't corrode or rust. We recommend that you stay away from alloys as most watches of poor quality use these. A quick test for this is to hold the watch in your hand and feel the weight of it. Is it heavy? If so, chances are good that the watch is made of quality metal. If the band is leather look for 100% leather to ensure the best quality.

2. WARRANTY

This one is simple; Do they offer a warranty on the product? If a company doesn't trust its product enough to guarantee its quality you may want to reconsider your purchase. If they do offer a warranty, how long is it? What does it cover?

3. REVIEWS

In the age of the internet, bad news spreads really fast. A good practice is to look at VERIFIED (usually validated by a third-party source) product reviews. See what their existing customers are saying about them. How many reviews do they have? Any video reviews on YouTube? If so, these will give you a good idea of whether or not you're dealing with a quality product.

Talley & Twine makes timepieces for trendsetters, tastemakers, and trailblazers.

We have styles for every occasion.

Created with a person of style in mind, Talley & Twine satisfies a need in the marketplace for quality, aesthetically-pleasing watches that resist the status quo. These designs were born after finding that the market is riddled with watches that compromise quality or style to emulate the most popular brands. Talley & Twine was created to disrupt the stagnant, uninspiring watch marketplace. Tastemakers, trendsetters, and trailblazers can appreciate our clean and classic design.

Talley & Twine was founded on two principles: legacy and lifestyle. We want to set the standard for future generations, and we want to look good doing it. The number seven on the face of our watches represents completion and serves as a reminder to always finish what you start. The face also gives our timepieces a distinct look that sets us apart from other brands.

Interestingly enough, our name comes from an intersection that was formerly the center of a notorious, crime-riddled neighborhood in Virginia. In recent years, the neighborhood has been completely revitalized and families now have the opportunity to own. A place with a dark past now has a bright future; Talley & Twine represents that future. It's not about how you start, it's about how you finish.
