My new Cartier friend

I have the Breguet Marine 5817. I really like the way it looks, but it was discontinued a while ago. As for its newer replacement, it's the Breguet 55...

What would you choose?

I'm facing a serious decision to make! I can sell my Omega SMP and add some extra cash to buy a used Sub, or I can choose not to sell anything and purchase a brand new Santos from the boutique. The pr...

That’s what also came to my mind! Having my birthday in June, so another reason to buy the Santos is new color. I’d love to get the medium version in blue or possibly green

This was definitely wise advice that sounds 100% rational. Watches are not guaranteed to retain their current value. However, when we're talking about spending money on them as a hobby rather than a real investment, it's not a complete waste. It can even give some decent returns on the money spent.

For example, if wearing my Cartier for a couple of years results in a depreciation of 1-2k, that doesn't seem too bad!

Watches are something personal. I could try, or let someone try, my watch on, but I would never lend it and have never been asked to do so

It is, but in steel instead of titanium

As for me it’s looking sporty enough to have a bit of fun with colorful strap, it suits quite well!

commented on Guess watches are they any good? ·

Those are the most basic and cheap quartz watch with a brand logo on it which is making it much more expensive than it should be. You’d better get something like Timex within this price range or save a bit more to get some decent entry level swiss watches like Hamilton or Tissot

I personally like to use my watches as it’s meant to be used. Feeling totally fine swimming with my Seamaster Professional. For me it’s an exciting idea for a watch to go anywhere: pool, river, ocean. After all it doesn’t look like a big challenge for Seamaster that was built to handle the depths of 300 meters. As for the dirt or sand seems like not a big deal as you can easily wash the watch.
