bro, me not married lah...waiting for wedding night then can experience
trust me bro Thai_Rak_Thai dai kor, marriage is way, WAY over-rated. watch nirvana >> wife/gf.
a watch will never:
- trap/annoy you by asking you "do i look fat in this?"
- nag at you.
- say "sorry dear, i've a headache / time of month is here / etc".
- say no to you.
- make you wear green hat.
- betray you.
- judge you.
- clog up your closet with expensive clothes, shoes & bags that it hardly wears.
- say "your money is our money; my money is MY money".
- fade in beauty / droop / sag / grow fat / become fugly but gain in patina & value.
- disrespect your parents / family / friends.
- have mood swings / pms.
- scream / shout / undermine you in front of others / your kids.
- overspend her cc limit on frivolous makeup, shiny, expensive trinkets like diamonds, expensive bags/shoes.
- change.
- expect you to change.
a watch will always:
- tell you the time reliably if you take good care of it.
- be faithful to you.
- be there when you need it.
- bring a smile to you face when it greets you as you open your watch drawer / safe / box.
- be a sign of your good taste, refinement and sense of style.
- help complement you in your various roles, identities and adventure as you rotate among your resin quartz gshocks through to your pilots, divers, dress, chronographs, military field watches, perpetual calenders, tourbillions, minute repeaters, etc
- be part of your identity as a refined, cultured, dignified gentleman of good taste and proper decorum.
- feel good on your wrist.
- remind you of man's ingenuity in engineering and crafting a highly accurate, tight tolerance, mechanical marvel with a beating heart on your wrist.
ps. for happily married, contented bros here, i salute you cos you're a rare breed. feel blessed and be grateful.
