commented on 30th Birthday - new watch recommendations ·

I had this milestone a few months back, and took good long while to decide. I too thought I wanted a big name brand/luxury brand, mostly looking at Oris, Tudor, Longines, etc. After much searching, however, I ended up with a King Seiko that I've been delighted with. I had to go to ADs, try stuff off, see what I liked. Point I'm trying to make is, don't box yourself in, just because you have the budget for something doesn't mean you're required to spend that much. Buy what you like, within your means, and please please please try things on!
