Send someone who the friend deeply admires / has a crush on / loves, etc. and just get them to say this:

"That watch looks really nice on you - you should get it!"

Works every time. At worse, a lot of lost sleep will be had later agonising over the impending procurement.

No better way to discover than to actually try to see which strikes your fancy.

I do believe in the general principle of never settling so I feel if you can responsibly save up for the one you really want, best to do that!

However, if it is beyond budget, then there is no shame in getting something you’d be happy with and truly like!

I have only one personal curiosity @Max - what happens now to your 'perfect' BB58 Silver with the Submariner 14060 now in the collection?

commented on Rectangular Watches - Will they find a place in your Collection? ·

absolutely fair - which is why I posed the question in the first place? There's a perfectly rational reason why rectangular watches are not perceived as versatile as sportier designs.

commented on Kurono Grand Mori Anniversary - Worth it? ·

that's a fair point. I know of one person who got it but he is a Kurono Contributor who was part of the first batch. It is looking a little bad that the other batches aren't ready yet. Hope yours arrives soon!

commented on Kurono Grand Mori Anniversary - Worth it? ·

Actually if you operate in USD, the price has actually come down due to the strength of the USD currently. Kurono have effectively kept the price of the Grand series constant in JPY terms. Feel free to fact check me! 😉
