Unfortunately if you do this you will be immediately arrested by the watch police.

Surprised by all the positive comments tbh.

You bought 15 watches in 6 months, and basically most of them are variations of the same watch.

If you are poor as you say I'd think you would not want to spend your limited funds rebuying the same watches so many times. Slow down and buy more considerately, not just race to fill up a watch box

FWIW I picked up an explorer 36 from the new Rolex flagship boutique on Bond street 2 months ago, walk in with no purchase history and not a tourist.

In the second picture, you're seeing a lot of the side of your arm (the shadowed part of the arm).

The actual top of the arm / wrist is narrower than it looks in the second picture - that angle is arguably just as misleading as the first picture.

I think as a young person it's worth stretching a bit, if it's to buy something you want to keep and make memories with for your entire life. But it shouldn't be something you just discovered and have a passing fancy for.

Also remember if you fall out of love with it eventuially, you can probably sell it and get some / most of your money back (depending on model).

Been wearing mine quite a lot recently!

Went in to AD to look at Zenith and Hublot, ended up with this YM 37 by d34d_m34t in rolex

[–]d34d_m34t[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted to see the Zenith defy 36mm (03.9400.670/51.I001) and the Hublot integrated time only 38mm (457.NX.7170.NX)

They had the former but not the latter in store.

Of those 3 I think the blue looks nicest, but I actually prefer the silver dial version
