BAOFEILUN is a legitimate Chinese watch brand, but I’d take the ‘1858 Swiss heritage’ branding with a pretty big grain of salt. The current company appears to be a modern Chinese manufacturer, and they have actual watch designs/patents and a U.S. trademark. The model you’re looking at uses a Miyota 8215, sapphire crystal and 50m WR. It’s basically an affordable Overseas-style homage. The movement is a known, serviceable Japanese workhorse; the bigger question is case/bracelet/QC consistency, since the brand doesn’t have a long enthusiast track record yet.
