not saying you're poor. don't be mistaken. i am also poor duh. i am currently jobless. can't be far worse than me.
all i am saying, don't squeeze your 2k just because you want to get him something.
save that 2k, save further more, get a higher budget then you can have more to choose from.
at the point, you can have all the options that he wants, and if that fits, he will wear it.
if you die die wanna spend that 2k on a watch and he doesn't even like it, what's the point right?
he won't wear it, he can't sell it, you wasted 2k.
wear to work, no need expensive watch. boss don't care.
wear a seiko also can.
why must a nice watch be expensive?
a sub $200 orient watch is damn good and looks expensive, for those don't know and for those who know, knows his wife got taste.
not sure if you're getting me on this.
but i am not putting you down in anyway.
can you believe this watch cost only $200? automatic, made in japan, rose gold.
it looks 10x more than its price.
