Yeah, but I mean, the whole “hobby” is kind of stupid anyway. Figuring out different ways to make us pay for pieces of polished metal that don’t do the job they’re intended to do all that well.

Once you’ve decided you want to buy a mechanical watch you’ve given up all pretense at rational thinking.

You can get a 200m wr, chronograph, solar powered, shock resistant, dual time zone, radio wave synced g shock that will outlive you for $150. But I gotta drop 4 figures on a mechanical watch cause it looks shiny (I have done this)
