Watches in 2021 are for niggers

how much for this sir?

such a retarded way to wear a watch. the knob jabbs into your hand when you have to bend you wrist up. that watch needs to be worn on the right hand.

>>28106776
Watches are just boomers jewelry for normies. There isn't any portfolio big enough to justify having one of these

>>28107072
only gays are wearing watches on the right hand sir

have your father gift you one when you graduate :^)

>>28107134
Watches are the most sophisticated kind of jewelry. Some of them are actually quite rare and understanding your watch makes it an immediate talking point when hanging with people who will appreciate it. And generally those people are of money because you can't buy them without money. It's literally a ticket to an exclusive club you can't get in because you're poor.

>>28106776
Why the fuck would I get that depreciating normie watch?

>>28106776
watches are a covert way to signal real wealth to other socialites that the peasants can't pick up so you can socialise at your own level
since we are all anti social autists watches serve no purpose to us

also expect this function to be taken over by some form of digital asset
just like all outdated boomer things are being replaced
in the end you are paying a huge premium just for the brand name that can be mass produced or faked at will, at least a digital asset will represent true unforgeable scarcity

>>28108009
subs dont depreciate fag

yes anon white skin should not wear or appropriate any chains and shackles, invest in your financial education and don't add up to your financial liabilities

The only men who wear shiny jewelry to attract mates are fags and niggers

>>28108923
look at the price of any sub over the last 10 years. or can you not read graphs

Imagine not wearing storage of wealth in the form of precious metals on your wrist.
NGMI, anon

>>28106776
never no matter the circumstances. its a useless gadget that does not improve your life a single bit.

Are Apple Watches considered good?
I like the idea of the extra health tracking info, but Apple is pozzed as fuck.

brokies in the thread are the ones who are mad

Why? The more money you make, the better it looks.

>>28106776
I wear an Explorer 2 cause I like it better.

Subs are still cool, I’ll get one eventually. I was hoping for a market correction cause they are selling over retail and have been for quite some time.

>>28111336

i fucking love these watches.

>>28110981
let them go, some people are destined to slave

>>28106776
when you make it time is no longer important. because you are no longer a wagie. so there is no need to wear a watch. btw 250k is nothing.

Submariners are too fucking big for my baby wrists. I would spring for an OP or a DJ instead.

>>28106776
I'm planning on getting one when I break 7 figures

>>28111336

I would rather wear this

What are you, a boomer?
I am a millionaire an will never play golf or join a country club. I don't know a single millionaire under 50 who does that. It's all about chilling in cozy places all over the world and doing shit you're interested in.
True making it is doing what you want, not what you think rich people do.

I would suggest a Tudor Pelagos then, fren

>>28115010
I like the look, but it is not durable.
I have the gshock version of that, dw5600. The only thing is the alarm never has woken me up once, too quiet for that.

>>28110753
If you’re going that route just get a Garmin. It does everything an AW does with better battery and upgrades like Gorilla Glass on the front. I’ve used mine for about a year now and the fitness/lifestyle metrics are awesome. Several people I know have Apple watches that shattered.

>>28115617
Nice bro. This is my new piece. Makes women stare with lust and men stare with envy.

just buy an SKX007

>>28107072

>>28106776
just dont buy a rolex, they are just ugly as hell

>>28118392
great watch

>>28117947
Those aren't them

>>28119941
Looking at phones is for children
Watches are for adults

>>28119993
Rolex used to be a tool watch that you could actually use without fear. These days G-SHOCK took over, but don’t be a fag, subs definitely look cool. Every diver watch copied them (and they potentially copied the blancpain 50 fathoms)

>>28106831
Based.

>>28120199
watches are a terrible investment, i can do far more with a phone than you can with your watch and it's 5% of the price

>>28120385
Steel sports Rolex, Patek, and AP most of the time appreciate in value

>>28120032
>Rolex Explorer

>>28120385
Do you still wear shorts too because it's cooler manchild?

>>28106776
I just looked it up and it only costs $800?
I'm a poorfag with zero dollars in the bank and a crypto portfolio amounting to ~$1200 and I can easily afford that watch. My Herman Miller Aeron chair I'm sitting in right now costs almost double the price.
Honestly I think most poorfags only don't have nice things because of their shitty attitude of mind. I feel like I'm rich and I know for a fact that $1000 is not a lot of money, I could easily drop that on this rolex even if I didn't have any money but that.

>>28120639
yeah

>>28120464

Beautiful, I didn't like explorers that much at the beginning but there are growing on me. I used to like the datejust but now I just think it's a poser's watch and it's way too flashy, especially if you go jubilee bracelet.


To answer the OP, I think you should have a 10k$ watch only when you have a capital of 200k$. That's already 5% of your wealth on your wrist basically. But people do far worst with the cars and as you said the value is not depreciating.


If I make it, I will definitely buy myself at least a nice watch. I think I would go vintage Rolex. I find the watch having such a deeper esthetic value when vintage I don't know why. Vintage sub no date are looking gorgeous. Vintage explorer as well.

You should get a sub when you can spend the money and not miss it. Simple as, you'll know you bought it because you wanted it and could have it, not because you wanted to consume conspicuously to broadcast your wealth to world
And others can tell when you're doing this btw
Spent a long time in the banking business and fren I can tell you truly wealthy people (8 fig +) are not wearing rollies to the grocery store. Usually that's people, well, like you said, $250k in the bank. There are reasons for this
>>28111336
I just ordered this in army green with a green and sand nato strap

>>28120686
800$?
What fake are you looking at? Rolex lists the Submariner as 7700€ for retail and you can't get it at that price unless you are on the fav list of your AD.

>tfw 6.25 inch wristlet

I've been considering buying a superfake for like 600-800 bux, you literally can't tell the difference unless you compare it with another with a fucking magnifier glass. Also even then there's plausible reason for doubt because despite common misconceptions, not every Rolex is 100% perfectly made.

>>28120686
>$1,000 to your name
>spend it on a trinket
This is why poorfags stay poor

Another thread paid for by a Rolex pawn broker.

No I'm not paying you $10,000- $20,000 for a piece of jewllery, I'm not bill gates or a woman.

Brah Bill Gates doesn't even wear a ROLEX.

>>28120686
kek i can never leave this place

>>28117653
Imagine being this retarded.

>>28120686
I fear the $800 submariner

Dont be a dumbass, buy 1/1 fakes and spend your money on something worthwhile. I was gonna buy a rolex, but then I just bought a trip to SEA and bought a perfect fake for $200 and no one knows the difference and I got a life changing experience and saved like 6k.

>>28117947
>Jesus how are you all so fucking fat.
It's just the angle of the photo

>>28125208
>>28124304
Honestly buy a superfake if you feel it's not worth it but people WILL notice. Subconsciously you are projecting you are not wearing a real Rolex and as a matter of fact your confidence, stance and general allure will reveal this. Of course, Stacey and Brandon won't notice it, but the moment someone who is actually high staus sees it, you're immediately rejected. And trust me, more people will notice than you can imagine. A "super fake" can be told apart from a real one. There will always be clear indicators.

>>28117530
>Nice bro.
Looks good. Slim fit aesthetic is big right now. I copped a similar piece

>>28106776
The only watch I have and wear belonged to my father. I've worn it and taken care of it since he died 11 years ago. It's nothing fancy or expensive, but it's all I need. Your pathetic, overpriced bling means nothing.

>>28115148
fucking kek

>>28125633
>all of that cope bullshit

No you can't notice

>>28125660
What’s the deal with wearing watches so tight? Did momma tighten it so you wouldn’t lose it? Holy shit lmao

>>28126629
They are reposting years old pics to make fun of us

>>28106776
Is it a waste of time if I can't read an analogue watch?
I've only ever used my phone or a computer clock.

>his watch isn't waterproof up to -300m
What's the point bros

>>28124832
Kind of my point fren ;)

>>28125633
As someone who owned a second hand rolex this is utter horse shit.

>>28106776
Rolex watches are extremely gaudy and look like they were designed by autists. If all you want is to flash your wealth, there are plenty of legacy watchmakers that make obscenely priced pieces that are actually also pretty to look at, like A. Lange & Söhne.

>>28117653
anon I...

>>28111336
I wore one of these daily until I inherited my grandfather's Rolex. Miss wearing it sometimes I don't have to worry about banging it up

>>28128499
the fuck is wrong with that arm

>>28129223
Also this, I've owned $500 - $1000 watches that are better quality than some of the higher end brands assuming your not just some wanker who walks around bragging about your watch all day.

>>28130391
Don't masturbate

>>28130391
>the fuck is wrong with that arm
Just weird camera angle

>>28117522
This, if you want to get a watch for sporting/fitness purposes, Garmin are the way to go.

>>28114366
If you spend money on stupid shit, I highly doubt net high net worth is an issue.

>>28106776
Even the wealthy are wearing Apple Watches instead of high end timepieces. Sometimes I’ll put on my Speedmaster and wish I just had my stupid smart watch on instead

>>28106776
my watch lol
>inb4 ppl mad

>>28106776
I've already got one, think my lesbian neighbours misunderstood when I said I wanna watch for my birthday

>>28106776
Most sport watches are function without purpose. If I race cars I'll wear a Daytona, but I don't race cars. I'm not James Bond, so no Submariner. The make-it watch should be considered carefully and fit you personally. I'm looking at Patek, but 95% of people don't even know the brand so wearing one is not about impressing people in general.

>>28131728
What's a good watch for laying on the couch for 8-12 hours per day with a laptop

>>28108140
>peasants can't pick up
Just checked, r/watches has 1,5 mil subs. Maybe what you are saying was true 10 years ago, but now every normie knows about even the niche luxury brands. That’s why I don’t want to wear mechanical watches anymore, they are “conversation starters” for people I don’t want to interact with.

>>28131959
I like the minute repeaters. Also the bird repeaters, but they can run close to half a million.

>>28108140
This absolutely isn’t true. I guarantee you my father in law makes more than each of you and possibly more than all of you (his beach house is $7.5M in RH alone, he has a second in Cancun, one in Montana, a flat in Mass and a main home outside of NYC in NJ Pine Barrens) and he couldn’t give two fucks about watches because he is interested in gardening, his wine cellars and his horse and car collection and so are his neighbors.
Watches are plebeian tier when you have a 30ft cellar filled with 7k-50k bottles. You wanna know how someone is wealthy? Incredible wine knowledge, home repair and garden botany knowledge. I know because I need to pretend it all the time so I don’t embarrass that side of the family.
If you can’t tell me the top 3 Argentinian Malbec winners in South Am and how they compare with Mendoza vineyards you are like doctor rich. If you can tell me the timing numbers to a Ford Bullitt, wines and why your garden is a period authentic Sicilian then you are wealthy.
Wealthy people have fuck around money and fuck around time and have weird as fuck niche hobbies as a result. Watch bragging is on par with “oh your home is so nice” level of faux pas.
