With LINK back at ATH and me being 2x away from hitting $1 million, I was thinking what watch should I get to mark that first $1 million? I'm sure many anons here have made lots of money recently and are looking for a watch. The price range should be about $10k-$20k(can be with a small interest loan as well so wouldn't have to sell any LINKs/crypto) so it is not some super expensive watch, but it's also not some cheap shit anyone can buy. Also no used watches. We don't want someone elses memories attached(>he doesn't know). Yes I know it might depreciate and how it's a waste of money, but I want to give this first watch to my grandchild one day and tell him the story how I made money on this place called /biz/.

So I was thinking the Rolex Datejust since it looks kinda sleek, but I don't know much about watches. The good thing with Rolexes is that others know, but not many people know about IWC or Philipe Patek.

Bought myself a modest Seiko when my portfolio hit $100k. Will probably buy a Grand Seiko if/when I reach $1m. Right now I can't imagine buying a watch more expensive than that, but that might change in the future. I definitely value watches more than "it just tells time lmao" and think it's a very nice reward for reaching 7 digits, OP. Hope you find one that you like.

I've had all the watches under the sun up to Patek. I sold them all because I realised I don't actually like wearing watches. That and it started to overtake my life getting a collection together for every fucking occaision. Watchfags saying they need 3 divers, 2 dress watches, 1 chrono blah blah blah. It drove me insane. In the end, it's all a larp. You don't use a Rolex for diving. Nobody knows if you have a patek on your wrist. A daytona will attract the wrong kind of attention from people looking to rob you. Now I wear nothing unless I'm diving with my seiko. If I'm out for dinner I might put on a vintage dress watch but that's it.

One watch I do miss is my Panerai. Might get one of those again.

I’m so close to pulling the trigger on a black dial 34-36mm Oyster Perpetual. It’s a Rolex with all the quality that comes with it in terms of the case, the bracelet, as well as the really solid movement which I think is like 1-2 seconds per day or something. All that without the flashiness of any of the date watches or god forbid the gold-digger-friendly subs and GMTs or the negroid-magnet Daytonas.

Same here. It's just too damn comfy. It's the only watch that I literally cannot feel on my wrist during the day. A chunky mechanical almost starts to fatigue you after wearing it all day. Still, I'll probably buy something nice when I hit $1M.

Just buy a Seiko OP. Rollies, TH, and huboldts are nice watches, but the whole luxury watch industry is an overpriced meme. Japan makes as good, if not better quality watches than any swiss or bongland. If you do go with a Rolex, get something that's neutral so it goes with whatever you're wearing or if desperately need money at some point, it would be easier to get the market value.
