Likely just a stolen review from a way less expensive watch. A beater in this context would be a cheap watch that one can wear outdoors for long periods of time without worrying about damage.
It's also common to review bomb redic products. These are some of the iconic ones

One of the most surefire ways to find funny/troll reviews on Amazon is to sort from price highest to lowest, and type in something that should be relatively affordable, like a watch or a vacuum cleaner. Although for every twenty troll reviews, you will find one serious one, and be shocked/appalled that they had that much money to spend on something that won't drive you somewhere. I did come across one review for a TV that cost as much as a car, and the review was actually serious. Complete with a picture of how the TV fell from the wall mount.
It's not a stolen review, it's a joke. The Patek Philipe watch he mentions is even more expensive, made by the company that made the first wrist watches ever.
