tom in atlanta, i'm axel in stockbridge and in my time in the United States Army, i don't recall seeing a timex being issued to me or available for a reduced price due to surplus rates, I think ya got took
Yeah - budget does come into play unfortunately. I'm not hugely bothered about it lasting forever or being top notch - just has to look ok, do the job, and be fairly understated.
my man, your watch (if you wear one) is the FIRST thing people judge you on. be they lovers, contemporaries, rivals strangers. And a 40 dollar timex says “cheap, tasteless and boring with ZERO confidence”, its best to have 2 watches (save your pennies) one for the day to day like a Seiko or eligen (sp?) and one more expensive dressier watch like a top end invicta or even a rolex
as for the day to day I wear a chase durer 1000xl S.F watch, it’s like 685-890 dollars depending and my dressy watch(es) are a chase durer stainless and a rolex Daytona….. both chase durer watches I got through work and a massive discount, and the rolex I got in the line of duty from some one who didn’t need it any more cause god knows some one with my shitty check can’t afford a 19k watch
try jewelry stores that sell “pre owned” or refurbished watches, that will save some coins, ebay is a good way to find deals, and quite honestly if the watch is a little warm on your wrist, who’s gonna know? Just remember to take it to the old Punjabi fella in the flea market to get it serviced or a new battery… not the dealership………… hope this helps, don’t be a cheap skate when it comes to your watch, on the strait market you get what you pay for, same as that race car in your pic, didn’t get there on the cheap

Get a watch without a second hand. Do you ever wonder why Joe shmoe would need a second hand on a wrist watch?
I've read that in the odd lifestyle article, but never heard more than one person express that view out loud ... and he was a schmuck about external stuff (and had the bankruptcies to prove it).
Who wants to know anyone who would judge you by your watch? Doesn't that seem pitifully superficial? Warren Buffet wears a Timex. You think anyone judges him by that?
A friend showed me this site. Not that expensive and located in the UK: Next: Official Site - Watches - Page 2 - Accessories - Mens
So when people see you him or I, and gander down at our wrist and see a 45 dollar watch, they are gonnathink of you as low end. didn't say it was right but puppies die, ice cream makes ya fat and people make judgements and assumptions about you baised of simple observations. its life
You could probably make such a judgment because you're into watches, axlx.
But how many people have that same trained eye?
I don't ... and when I walk into a jeweler's store, I usually see a huge number of watches, most of which belong to no brand that I can identify.
And I personally don't see an obvious correlation between price and physical attractiveness ... at least not once you're past the very cheapest makes (and some of those are reasonably attractive).
The other thing is that there are so many fake watches out there now. If I see what looks like a Rolex on a guy's wrist, I have no idea if it cost $3000 or $30.
You're no doubt right. There are people who can identify a whole range of high-quality, expensive watches, and will judge people on what they see.
But do the people able and inclined to do this, exist in any great number?
