have never ever understood spending more than $500 for a watch. But I'm not a watch guy and I don't like flashy things


I get not being into watches. And obviously there's a price limit that makes things ridiculous. But I think people confuse expensive watch with "flashy" watch. Expensive watches aren't expensive because of diamonds and gold. They are expensive because of precision, complexity, and reputation (Along with looks. but like everyone has said, Target can make a watch that looks the same).

Looks like a swatch watch to me.

I wouldn't be caught dead wearing any watch. They are obsolete , and it basically says that you dont know how to manage your money.

Unless you are a woman. Women can wear stupid jewelry and get away with it.

People who think this don't have any money to manage in the first place. A nice watch is a status symbol. Every self respecting man should have one

Wearing a watch means you don't know how to manage your money? How much do you think watches cost?



The dumb shite some of you people say is downright hilarious.
