The Watch Thread - Part 8

Slacking off at work...

Love how the colours bounce off the surface of your watch.

Does it make sense to blow 5 fig on a luxury watch when one does not even have a car?

Trying to get my head around it...

Steinhart isn't that great for the price vs brand

You can consider Squale watches from gnomon watches.

Look for 20 atmos- submariner homage
Pricing 600 plus, used to have one but sold it off

30 atmos for GMT homage

Would be good if the crown for north flag isn't so protruding. Make the sides wider for easy grip.

Does the brightness of the Lume last long?

Have not taken notice to the duration of how long the lume lasts..
Think not as long as seiko monster or explorer 2 :/

I have to confess. When I sold my 114060...i had some sleepless nights. Once bitten twice shy. Back with 116600

Woah! So is this new love able to make up for lost of the old love?

Car has upkeep which is $$$
A luxury watch upkeep is 90% non-cash. 10% cash in form of maintenance n watch straps

Car is a liability and needs $ to sustain. If u have 5 figure sum, might as well pay a down payment for a hdb flat. Watch does not appreciate in value.... Property does...

 

[Henabi]

Buy what you deem make sense. Since is your money

Car and luxury watch doesn't link. There are people who have luxury watches but doesn't see the need to own a car. There are those who drives a car and doesn't see the need to own a luxury watch.

But that being said, it's your own money. Just buy whatever you fancy.

Anybody wear a fitness tracker with your wrist watch?
Care to share which model is it and which hand did you wear it on.

I'm thinking to get a fitness tracker, but scare that I will look weird with the wrist watch on.

Cartier has good reputation in watch making unlike other luxury brand like LV ... Santos is a very classic model and is a safe buy.
