There's a real hobby around replica (ok, fake) designer watches. It's not always about ego and trying to present something you're not - though a lot of people use it for that. The real interest a lot of people have around it is the ~art~ of replicating something to the extreme detail that a lot of these manufacturers do. There are countless extensive posts of people reviewing the same watch from different manufacturers under microscopes and critiquing the build, quality, and accuracy to real watches. And to be honest, I like them a lot too because they're very fashionable and look great and are iconic. But I also don't want to spend $12k+ on a watch. And also in honesty, I always present it as a replica when asked about it and usually provide the above context where appropriate. I have no issue supporting replica manufacturers because they always represent their merchandise as replicas, and I also have no respect for intellectual property and the ridiculous practices of legitimate manufacturers. All this to say (admittedly defensively) that Monero is used often in buying replica watches. A friend of mine has also used it to buy drugs online (which was sent to labs for testing before using).
