Hi guys, the question is simple, I am trying to learn from your mistakes because I don’t have money to make my own.
And I thought we could share some stories too.

As someone who wants to get into watches but is weary of buying the “wrong” one, how have you been able to differentiate between a watch you simply like versus a watch you actually love?
In my opinion, you can’t, until it’s too late. You need to actually wear them for a while, by which point you’ve committed to the purchase. I have a bunch of watches, just like I have a bunch of coats and a bunch of shoes. I guess I could spend 5X the amount on a single expensive coat or expensive pair of shoes, but I’d rather have a collection.
TL;DR don’t get into watches, it’s a money pit!
Indeed
I def don’t see myself turning watches into a hobby, but after my grandpas watch was stolen almost 10 years ago I’ve been slowly considering a replacement. I started with looking at Fossil and have come so very far 😂
I think you either need to buy it or pick a watch, but wait months before buying. It might help to see it in person. You don’t need one of every type of one of every dial color. So get your favorite type in your favorite dial color. Think about what works for you, rather you working for it. I learned quickly that I don’t like mechanical watches. Erring on the smaller size is better looking and more comfortable as the watch slides around on the wrist, for example.
