Good lord.


Digital I'm guessing.

Casio G-Shock or a Garmin Fenix but only if cycling, hiking or jogging or something.

Otherwise, absolutely not. mechanical. In house movement preferably.

You reckon I'm judgey with clothes (i am actually not, I'm just extracting the urine) but I will literally not talk to you if you're wearing a shitty watch.

... and by shitty I mean something expensive but rubbish.

Jag are the worst, mine's been back to the repairer 3 times, over a month each visit.

What do you recommend Q? I'll try FC's too.

Some scents don't go with some people, depends on your body smell.

I tend to go for Chrome or Cool Waters, I do have one in a Gold Bottle that escapes me that seems to go alright, I use that one sparingly.

Throw it out. Unless it's a gift, then only wear it when in that person's immediate company.

I wear it because I'm used to having it on, despite the time not being accurate.

The saying "you get what you pay for" is not at all true when it comes to watches. Especially at the ultra-cheap end. Watch movements inside many of the "luxury" fashion brands are usually cheap chinese rubbish worth little more than $2.

So if you're only going to spend $100 on a watch, you're better off with a Seiko, Casio or Timex. Or Swatch. You only need to spend a little bit more and you can get a nice Tissot or American made Hamilton. Be careful with the new hipster brands too. Nixon, Daniel Wellington - again mostly cheap chinese mass produced movements. You're paying for the look or the brand - which is fine, but watch snobs like me will judge and they will not last.

< $500 - Look for good quality Japanese quartz. Seiko, Casio.

$500 - $2000 - Mass produced Autos (ETAs), some Japanese Autos or non swiss in house movements - Tissot. Sinn, Shinola, Hamilton, Bulova

$2,000 - $7,000 - the buyer beware market. Where watch people rip you off the most IMO. Trying to sell the myth of luxury. Tag Heuers are mostly pretty shit, for example, yet many people will wear them proudly. Look for in house swiss or german automatics. Rolex, Omega, Nomos, Panerai, Longines, Breitling, IWC all mostly very good.

$10,000 - $50,000 - bespoke, hand made, pieces of art with multiple complications that you'd use as a family heirloom, Patek, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Cartier, Breguet, Audemars Piguet

> $50,000 - limited editions of famous watches, custom made engineering marvels or vintage rarities that rich people use as investments/hold money. A Lange and Sohne, Hublot, Richard Mille

For the price, these are fine! Some are even quite collectible now, Last for ever and just need a new battery every now and then.
