Genuinely nice pieces but waay to high of a markup value to justify buying.
I literally destroy everything I touch thats why I only buy sub 400 watches so I don't feel like I'm losing the world if I break them.
>>712017274
Never wear it because people around me don't appreciate it. The occasional fuck boy maybe but that's just because of the stigma. Sad to say but my apple watch gets more people talking on a day to day basis.....

Because I, and everyone I know, have smartphones, all of which are linked to satalite clock, so I always am able to tell the time.
Furthermore, the few watches I have had throughout my life inevitably get wrecked and/or lost as I am apathetic and forgetful.

Can't afford one
Don't like flashy things, regardless

>improves his style/outfit

>reliable, as he's always prepared

because I have a seiko 5 and expensive watches are for insecure faggos
I wouldn't say no to a simple-face watch with a comfortable, wide leather band, but I can't really find one for a price I want to pay for it.
$12 piece? Basically garbage.
$400 piece? I have a fucking computer in my pocket that costs less than that fuck off.

watches are either or. the only middle of the road shit you'll find is fossil.

Rolex isn't a luxury watch. It markets itself to poor people who want to pretend they're rich. Also they're a shit watch. Real rich people buy Patek Phillipe (among others, but PP is a very nice brand).
Cartier and Omega are also shit tier watches. FYI.

You really are a stupid asshat , IF i was to wear a watch it would be digital and cheep. You think because some clown in a suit says something is worth $ XX,XXX you should pay it, or because you see the name at most major sporting events its worth more ? you literally are the kind of retard that marketing people dream about as they laugh behind your back. A $5 digital watch is more accurate than ANY mechanical watch and it tells the time only , thats is its function !
Also , is a dog turd and better if it is gold plated ? NO , ITS STILL A TURD YOU SIMPLETON

Some rich people do believe in status symbols, it's just not common.
These are targeted towards people who come across random money from wills or lottery tickets etc.

meh, if you're already rich, and then sell out and become even more rich by attaching your character to a brand name, then yes, there is soemthing wrong with it if the company caters to tryhard faggots... and that's exactly what rolex does

It's convenient to have a watch, and looks good. You wear a nice watch (not saying you have to buy something that costs thousands of dollars, but just something that looks good) but then you're clearly someone who has his shit together, a sense of style, doesn't have to fumble around in his pocket when he needs the time, etc. I feel naked without my watch, and I need it at work as I don't like to have my phone on me.

Expensive watches are cool but honestly they're a waste unless you're among other rich people.
What common person is going to know what random luxury brand of watch you have unless it's a Rolex (which even then they'd have to take a good look at it to see the Rolex logo on it).
If you're among rich people who COULD identify said luxury brand, they're all going to have their own shit and you're going to just be another person among many.
I don't wear anything besides clothes and shoes, maybe a hat when it's cold.

>>712037682
I'm not rich. But I do collect watches. My tastes reside in the 1K-1500 range. Seiko. Otis. Tissot. Victorinox. I buy them on markdown from amazon. I don't spend a ton of money. I don't usually pay over $800. I own very stylish watches that most watch snobs (people who like Rolex) would consider too poorfaggy. Thing is though, I'm complimented daily on my watches by normal people who appreciate style and to be honest, it feels like a more genuine compliment coming from an average person than some rich snob.
>pic related
An $800 watch certified by the COSC as a chronometre. Has a higher power reserve than some 3 thousand dollar watches.
Having some rich prick be able to identify the brand of my watch isn't why I collect them. I love them for their mechanical design.

I have a scar on my left wrist that travels up the bottom of my forearm. It left a great deal of nerve damage. I can wear my watches on that wrist but it hurts after awhile. And not just like a dull pain but that nervy fucked up half-sensation tingling pain. So I got used to wearing them on my right wrist. It feels weird at first, but you get used to it.

To prove you're not a nigger.
And you've failed. Nigger.
First and foremost because of the prejudices that come with it.
I'm in my early 20s and I don't look/don't want to look like a middle manager defining himself by his watch and his Porsche.
Second reason is the price tag. Sure they hold their value well and are very nicely designed and very well made watches but bottom line, raw value for money wise, it just isn't worth it.
Third reason is because i already bought a Nomos not too long ago and spending any money on a watch right now seems kinda stupid.
