Built on shittier tooling and older designs so shittier power reserves and thicker. Of course, Pateks are worse than JLCs for the same reason...except for the Grand Complication Pateks. Those are at or better than JLC level construction.

Get a JLC MUT or a Grand Seiko or a Rolex Submariner. A MUT Perpetual is $20k retail but you can find one for $15-16 on the gray market.

I hope OP got a Rolex - JLC and Grand Suckos are clunkers. Unless you’re a multi multimillionaire who can blow money needlessly on men’s jewelry stick with the basics (i.e., Rolex). You’re losing 20% once you walk out the door with the others.
