Currently price plus 2 yrs of price increase maybe 26k. Save like 30k just to be safe bet. Rolex price increase once at times twice a year iirc.
Save 22k and prices went up, suck thumb lol

Anyway if don't give parents, cut down Internet and entertainment, work hard very possible. Just nothing for raining day, rain hits sell Rolex to pawn shop get big lost. Light rain can take time sell privately for a better $$.

unless you insist on buying from local AD, there's always better prices through grey dealers and even better prices buying pre-owned.

median salary of $3,500 after cpf = 0.8 x $3,500 = $2,800

don't be daft. there's still enough to give parents. and save. and how to "cut down on internet"?

and that's without sideline income for the enterprenerial / freelance on off days.

22,000 ÷ 5,475 =.....


How can 2 years lol.

So what you calculated is set aside bonus 2 years and remained still needs 1.5 year total 3.5 years.

the saving of $10/day for 1.5 yrs happens within the 2 years time-frame! you save $10/day while putting aside the bonus over 2 yrs. geddit? :D

My own opinion, if one need to scrimp and save and give up almost every other thing in life just to get a (rolex/ luxury) watch, it just mean you are not financially ready yet.

I would actually advise against doing that.

Watches are lovely but if you miss this one, there's probably still a next one available down the road.

Lol so sad. Have to save like mad Haha. Saving for a watch is no no no.
Spend on needs. Watches are wants. Buy when you can afford.

A very good point on wants and needs. People today must differentiate the two.

Having a luxury watch is a want not a need. Get it only if it is within your means.

That's also why I got the Steinhart, at my age and salary, a luxury watch is not within my means (service cost is :eek: too).

Down the road if production stops, they produce different model already.

But your advice is good. No big head , dont go wear a biggie hat.
