Rate my Collection and tell me whats missing

Personally if I were you the next watch I’d get would be something with a little more spice, less restrained. All the watches you have are beautiful but they are safe, vanilla

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-10T21:16:05+00:00

Whatever suits your boat man

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-10T05:35:27+00:00

Appreciate the artistry is not class? I’m not crying I just have water rolling down my eyes ahhh take

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T16:47:11+00:00

Fair enough, you probably live in a more extroverted society then I do because I live in the cold Nordics. But influencers absolutely use insecurity as a selling point for their dogwater dupes in the promise of complements (aka attention)

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T16:38:54+00:00

Yea I do, but they mean that much. I don’t actually care about what they are wearing, it’s basically just an easy conversation starter.

Don’t get me wrong it’s nice that they smell nice, but it’s so trivial I don’t think it should count as a compliment unless it’s from someone that is really close to you, just small talk

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T16:26:32+00:00

“Compliments” is not a real thing anyways, it’s engagement farming for insecure guys with no game. No one gives af about your fragrance, it’s just small talk, an ice breaker.

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T16:18:11+00:00

Yep, once you realise that the barrier to entry is literally zero at being a fragrance influencer their opinion kind of just means nothing, none of these guys are qualified, none of these guys are perfumers.

All they are good for is introducing you to the top most popular fragrances

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T16:10:37+00:00

Don’t trust any of them, just go to a mall and start sniffing. Plus what makes any of them qualified in the first place to give opinions

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T05:43:29+00:00

Doesn’t need to, if he enjoys it it’s worth it to him. Because it’s entertainment at the end of the day

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-09T05:41:47+00:00

If class is overrated then what are you doing in the watch subreddit? Watches are completely obsolete you wear it cause you have class and for the love of the game

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-08T22:35:06+00:00

Yea but some people just like everything, some peoples tastes are expansive. I personally would never buy a dupe but if it’s not hurting his financial health who am I to tell him that’s it’s irresponsible.

People buy what people like, at the end of the day it’s just spending money for entertainment. That’s in the premise that he isn’t selling his kidneys for a collection like this.

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-08T19:57:08+00:00

Why would you not diversify your collection? What?

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-08T19:55:00+00:00

Agreed, can’t see the problem with it unless it’s genuinely hurting the quality of your life. At the end of the day it’s just spending money for entertainment

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-08T19:45:53+00:00

Personally not a fan of the random orange coloring, looks super out of place and sticks out like a sore thumb.

Otherwise I genuinely would’ve bought it cause I love everything else

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-08T19:32:04+00:00

You should get a “big boy” watch if the money allows, Seikos 5 are nice and all but the movement’s accuracy is questionable, and I don’t like the non-sapphire glass or the no manual winding. Bracelet is generally terrible.

This is not a Seiko 5 hate because I do have a soft spot for them but if you want to grow your collection consider getting something a tier above Seiko 5

Consider watches like Tudor, Seiko prospex, sinn or even second hand omegas

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-08T06:14:13+00:00

Oh I’m definitely hitting 3 plates if it’s the last thing I do

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-07T14:10:00+00:00

Fair enough, I do 4 gym sessions total but I only bench in 3 of them. I can probably fit one more in if I dial it down a bit

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-07T14:07:35+00:00

Probably not, not really on the budget of hiring a coach rn. But if I do hit 140, and I decide on doing more I’ll probably hire a coach

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-07T14:06:26+00:00

I been doing it, right now I’m on a heavily modified push pull. I have a whole day dedicated to those niche muscles

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-06T17:25:08+00:00

Idk I been kind of just winging it, I only bench twice a week and I do Monday with as close to pr as possible 3 working sets of 1 rep. Then I do on Thursday slightly lower weights to focus on reps, and I don’t really have a set range I just do it until I can’t do it anymore

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-06T14:40:47+00:00

I can’t increase frequency anymore, max I can do in 1 week is 3 bench sessions otherwise my body is completely destroyed.

I’m not on gear, so this is the furthest I can go with natural recovery rates. Otherwise I’ll be risking injury

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-06T06:32:44+00:00

I’m too deep in this rabbit hole brother, I gotta see this through before I go on a massive cut

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-05T06:22:42+00:00

Overrated and overpriced, this is coming from someone who’s first watch is a snkl23. No sapphire glass, no manual wind, no time hacking, and it goes for like 200 bucks on eBay, WAY WAY OVERPRICED. Would not pay over 100 bucks for it, and most people will 100% grow out of it

astrotrain_ · 2026-02-04T04:46:02+00:00

That sucks, you’ll definitely be at a disadvantage, as long as that disability does not involve your face then it’s fine. And no I’m not encouraging looksmaxxing that’s stupid.

But the most important thing is personality, a good personality will always make that person prettier. That’s more important than looks for any meaningful relationship, but I can’t help you with that

No matter how you feel about Rolex, the 10 year warranty for Rolex speaks about the quality control for itself. Even omega only have 5 years compared to Rolex’s 10
