I'm warning all of you now, dress watches are going to make a comeback next year. I don't want you all to start crying and yelling that you weren't warned. Sportswatches are oversaturated just like dive watches were and then chronos. It's not even going to be fancy high end dress watches either. It's going to be utilitarian every day dress watches and vintage watches. There will be instagram shilling and showing off high end stuff but the real change will be in the low and medium end. If there is a vintage dress watch you had your eyes on get it before it's too late. Everyone is going to do reissues and revivals. They will be a mixed bag but a necessary evil since the quality of watches has improved so much. This is your final warning.

It has just the right mix of old and new. I'm genuinely surprised that Patek had the balls to even consider doing something like it and the touch to pull it off well.

That's not how things work in the luxury market, smoothbrain.
First of all normies don't buy luxury watches, let alone JLC (they make 60k watches a year, that's fucking nothing).
JLC is a niche brand sitting between luxury brands (Rolex, Omega, Cartier) and Haute Horlogerie. If they struggle to MAINTAIN their market share in a GROWING market, it means they're losing on both sides.
So yeah, it's definitly terrible news when the laughing stock of the watch industry (Hublot) is overtaking you.

Are luxury watches pretty much like luxury handbags for men? They're both expensive accessories that may or may not be needed during the day to day. But the difference is that you don't see women arguing autistically that Louis Vuitton is better than Chloe or Burberry. Like Rolex vs. Omega and Patek etc. Women just own multiple handbags and are happy, why can't men do the same?

Depends on the watch.
On a no-date watch 48h makes no real difference to me because setting it takes no time.
If you've got a perpetual calendar, though, for example, then 48 hours is a pain in the ass because setting it is a much longer, more delicate process.

The same goes with manual vs automatics. With a manual winder, you wind it to full in the morning and off you go. 48 vs 72 hours doesn't matter. If it's an automatic, you can never be sure if, even if you've worn it, you've moved your wrist enough to keep it fully wound.

Do you actually believe that you can dive 100ft (98.42ft) in a Reverso?

What you forget is that the seals (which in a 30m watch are basically nonexistent) start breaking down the second they are taken out of the package.
On Day 1, you may have 30m WR, but on day 100, that seal might finally fail, and now you have no WR and you'll never know until it's too late. You're washing your hands, get a little splash on the watch and, next thing you know, the crystal's all fogged up.

100m+ WR watches have thicker, stronger seals and typically have screwdown crowns. They last longer, so even if you only service your watch every ten years, they'll have some life and protect the watch in between services.

If you stop idolizing women you would realize they actually talk shit about other women's bags all the time. They don't have the courage to do it face to face but it's an arms race and class warfare. They look down on women who cheap out on bags and they also look down on women who spend too much on bags. They also usually have multiple bags. Also they are less happy than men because men actually find joy in their hobbies.
