Is it a bad idea to buy luxury watches when you're young? I want to reward myself using my crypto gains by buying an expensive watch.Unfortunately, I'm also depressed of being a NEET and might start wagecucking for fun based on the previous advice given to me in my other thread days ago. The other anons said it will be good for my mental health.
Will my boss and coworkers hate me if i wear an expensive watch? I'm not talking about Patek Philippe watches here. Probably rolex and cartier ranges only.
I want to buy the cartier santos 100 XL since i like the aesthetics and my boss wont think im that much of a douchebag since cartier is not as well known as rolex.
However my dad says its a stupid idea since cartier's dont hold as much value as rolexes and pateks. But im afraid wearing a rolex marks me instantly as a douchebag.
I just want chicks to mire me and know im successful for my age.
Xavier Miller
omfg, a watch won't change the fact that you are a huge faggot.
if you think a watch will get you chicks then you are wrong, bitches don't know the difference between a q&q and an expensive or a fake one.
invest that money is a personal trainer and start a sport like boxing or smth, that will help you A LOT.
also, chicks dig cars, if you want to buy smth to impress wymin, buy something with a NAME, like audi, bmw, mercedes
Hudson King
The fact that you call yourself a young boy is telling enough that you should not buy a watch and instead kys.
Logan Gray
If you buy expensive shit you look like a huge faggot especially if it's from crypto gains, just pay down a house first
Julian Harris
Pathetic.
Tyler Walker
>omfg, a watch won't change the fact that you are a huge faggot. See this is what im talking about. My coworkers will probably think the same thing. Maybe i should not wagecuck after all i dont need the money. I just need normal social interaction outside bars.
>if you think a watch will get you chicks then you are wrong, bitches don't know the difference between a q&q and an expensive or a fake one I can get chicks without the watch but why the fuck do you think men spend a shit ton of money on luxury watches and luxury cars? Absolute denial. Its to send a sign to women and fellow men that you're successful.
>also, chicks dig cars buy something with a NAME, like audi, bmw, mercedes Already got that locked down. I need a watch.
Joshua Rodriguez
>just pay down a house first I already have a car and a condo paid by my parents. An expensive watch is the only thing missing.
Noah Wright
I don't understand anyone who wastes money on an expensive watch.
High end watches were a "thing" what, 15 years ago?
Thomas Wood
get dat fully loaded AP my nigger
Camden Green
Cringe
Joshua Moore
You stupid as hell my nigger. Step outcho mama's basement stupid ass bitch boy.
Jaxson Murphy
Too tacky my man.
>Cringe Kek this is what people with $100 portfolios feel. I'm expecting my coworkers to be salty too.
Brayden Cook
>I just want chicks to mire me and know im successful for my age. fucking kek
Joseph Martinez
I dont know your situation, but I am currently in college and before doing crypto I traded WW1 medals for some profit. My current watch is Panerai Luminor GMT. and before that I was given as a gift Ulysse Nardin San Marco. Both of them are not tacky and look quite nice.
Bentley Ortiz
Sorry that just looks retarded how small is your penis
Ayden Sullivan
NOMOS or kys
Christopher Morgan
It takes a post like this to remind me how autistic everyone on here is. I'll slowly forget again, but thank you for posting this OP. You keep me grounded.
If you still want my opinion, buy whatever you want. You sound like you're already a douchebag so you might as well get the rolex.
As far as chicks go, I know 90% of people here like to reduce them to the most superficial stereotype, but if you want a quality woman you have to strive for one and a watch (or car, or whatever) isn't going to do shit.
Parker Martin
Who wears a watch anymore lol
Hunter Long
>My current watch is Panerai Luminor GMT. I noticed young men prefer Panerai's especially in my social circle. Its definitely not tacky, and anyone who does not follow watch brands wont know its expensive as fuck. Much more expensive than the entry level rolexes.
The thing is, its probably only guys that will notice you're wearing an expensive watch. Women probably havent heard of Panerai's since its mostly favoured by young men.
Ethan Murphy
Get a couple of watches. Someone who only owns a single rolex might be look at as a douchebag, but if you own more watches they'll just think you love wearing them.
Austin Thomas
The point of this is so that you don't need money ever again. Wearing a $20k watch screams to the people around you "I desperately need money."
Wyatt White
>but if you want a quality woman you have to strive for one and a watch (or car, or whatever) isn't going to do shit.
I dont ever want to get married desu, having spent a lot of time with hot hookers i realized marriage is a bad deal and divorce can really fuck you up. I just want them to MIRE ME not MARRY ME!
Aiden Jackson
>Panerai >definitely not tacky
ROFL
Ayden Smith
Get yourself a Versace.
James Williams
That is indeed true. But you see, guys that notice expensive watches can be very useful acquaintances from my life experiences
Michael Rogers
IMO you don’t need that materialistic shit. Use your money to make experiences, go travel the world, woman will appreciate that more than buying a few nice looking watches that’ll sit in a box eventually
Kayden Campbell
>Wearing a $20k watch screams to the people around you "I desperately need money." OH FUCK UR RIGHT user. Wearing a rolex at a wagecuck entry level job is -9000 alpha points. I'm fucked am i? Either depression from not having a normal office social life or girls mirin me.
Ian Long
Wow OP you are exactly like me and your thread made me realize what a terrible person I am. I also don't really care for women I hate them, I do not even care about sex honestly too much I just want hot women to mire me and surround me so everyone else knows how much better I am.
In other words women are just like a cool watch or nice car imo just something to hype myself up with and make other people feel inferior and jealous.
Adrian Evans
Chicks hardly recognize panerai's are expensive so its not tacky. The only thing tacky about it is its large size.
David Martinez
he's right you neckbeard, i'm at 50k port and already own a rolex, you're autistic as fuck, don't buy one you mouth breathing smooth brained faggot
Kevin Cox
That's a fair point. In that case you should definitely do the rolex+lambo combo or a variation of it. If you really want myrin' you should pay a personal trainer to beat you into a hot body. Only then will your douchebag pussy slamming transformation be complete. Weight training will legit have many other benefits though, both emotional and physical. It'll give you confidence which is always attractive.
Andrew Reyes
I was thinking about getting a watch today. Saw a sight I could use bitcoin to pay so might just do it that way to save cashing out. Really don’t know what to get, I think something that isn’t well known like Rolex,Patel,Cartier.
Joseph Cooper
Also op, a buddy of mine has Hublot Black Magic. Its quite nice too
Jayden Ross
It's current year. People will wonder if you're gay because you're wearing a bracelet.
Dylan Miller
>But you see, guys that notice expensive watches can be very useful acquaintances from my life experiences This. Expensive watches can get you connections and respect from other successful men.
>In other words women are just like a cool watch or nice car imo just something to hype myself up with and make other people feel inferior and jealous. You see user, 'mirin is the best example of Proof-of-Stake. The more 'mirin you get, the more people will admire you.
Parker Nguyen
If you want a luxury understated watch then check out Vacheron Constanin
I mean, this shit will cost you a house deposit, but they're one of (if not the) oldest watchmakers around and their watches are understated and usually worn by conservative rich fucks.
They were founded in the 1755, for fucks sake. They invented the first ever complication.
Check out the Patrimony, but try to see it in person. Pictures really don't do it justice.
Cooper Thomas
>being this insecure I've go bad news for you. Nobody will ever be envious or feel inferior to you, no matter how many watches, cars, or babes you acquire. You can still hype yourself up though, so you still have that.
Cooper Walker
>Rolex SHITTER You have no idea what the fuck you're talking about, do ya?
Gavin Lee
>Vacheron Constanin Ah the holy trinity of patek, audemars piguet, and vacheron. If im going to get one of these its probably the patek since its INSTANT RESPEKT distilled in a chrono device.
Most people havent heard of Audemars piguet and vacheron
Ayden Reyes
Buy steroids and get Veeky Forums girls will admire a good looking body instead of a fucking watch faggot.
Brandon Martinez
I mean this shit is fucking exquisite.
Audemars is nigger tier trash for rappers. Patek is not to my taste either, too overstated. Every dick with cash has a Patek
Not that many have a Vacheron though
Wyatt Watson
He's probably one of those faggots that only respect the holy trinity of watches.
Samuel Taylor
Dont forget breguet
Benjamin Jenkins
Buy yourself an expensive watch and an expensive car and all you're gonna attract is gold diggers. Invest that money into yourself (education, fitness, travel, etc...) and you might just get the good one(s)
Colton Stewart
>Doing shit to please women Lol you fucking faggot
Rolex is trash imo I like some models of the explorer but thats it I'd rather have an Omega seamaster than any Rolex plebdate or any of that shit
Liam Torres
How can you be so sure faggot? I bet you're just saying that cause you're jealous you are inferior to me.
Robert Clark
I really apologize if this is a copypasta but I've not been around lately.
A few hundred dollars for me is a flight or a week or three of Airbnbs. I don't have an apartment, I own property and other assets but I mostly travel so I think of money in terms of how long I can keep travelling. You realize how soon you can live without most possessions and it feels really good. The right person for you will value what you do, so if you value posturing and possessions you'll attract the same. This is a bad idea. Make yourself the person you want to be instead of surrounding yourself with things and you'll feel so much better off.
Samuel James
I think a better analogy is
>Vacheron is the grandfather who was previously the king >Patek is the current king >Audemars is the prince
Anyway i wont consider buying any of these until im in my 30s or late 20s. What a waste of money lmao, no way I'm pulling that much money out of crypto this early. These things make rolexes, cartiers, and panerais look like a bargain.
Noah Cooper
100% lol
Aaron Perez
I like the Patek world time though
It's not that expensive bro If you respect the craftsmanship then its not expensive at all
It's not about "having an expensive watch"
Jayden Wright
I personally bought a Versace. Bitches have major brand recognition and a Versace watch probably means more to a bitch than a Rolex desu. It wasn't too expensive but expensive enough, and it's very tasteful and elegant. Bitches are mirin it all the time and I don't look like a huge faggot.
Ryder Martinez
Looks like shit grandpa
Leo Ramirez
I'm 23 you pleb faggot Go listen to your nig raps mate lad
Henry Nelson
>I've go bad news for you. Nobody will ever be envious or feel inferior to you, no matter how many watches, cars, or babes you acquire. Lol the cope. I assure you, unless you are WELL-KNOWN like Vitalik. People will treat you with much less respect if you wear a shitty plastic watch compared to a Patek.
Less respect = harder to get connections with other succesful men. Women and establishments in general will treat you differently as opposed to someone wearing a Patek.
A chick who works in a casino (i dont gamble, she just works there) i fucked even told me they were trained to spot what type of watch the customer wears!!!!
YOU ARE BEING JUDGED WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT.
Benjamin James
What the fuck is wrong with you. You are literally the stupidest person I've ever seen.
Luis Gomez
>I'm 23 you pleb faggot Holy shit, OP here. Im 23 too KEK!!!!!!!!!
Nolan Gomez
>t. brainlet buying watches made by designer clothing brands At the worst case try buying a watch made by a jeweler like Cartier. Even cartier doesnt hold its value that much because of this i cant even imagine what happens to versace watches as soon as you leave the store.
Jace Watson
Holy shit that is awful, next step a diamond engraved cellphone if you want recognition
Samuel Butler
Confirmed faggot
Noah Thompson
That is fucking disgusting
Levi Flores
Anyone buying a nice watch in this market is pants-on-head retarded. Wait for the top, this isn't the top, and don't pretend you're wealthy, you're not wealthy yet, because you're on Veeky Forums
Michael Martin
Nah, go ahead and treat yourself. Just realize it's bait for people who are hypnotized by expensive tacky things, aka soulless normies. You will get tired of all these goons who try to hang around you just because they know you have (or had) money.
Brayden Wilson
get some fucking class you nooobs
Noah Sanchez
jj lecoultre is nice
Christian Lopez
Fuck you retards I've never met a person that saw it and didn't compliment it. I think it's one of the best looking watches I've seen.
Tyler Kelly
>confusing fucking someone in the hopes of getting money with respect
Poorfags seem confuse respect with opportunistic networking. They don't respect you, they want something from you. Anyway, if you ever make it financially you'll find out the same way I did. Best of luck.
Ayden Harris
that is apiece of shit and i bet its quartz
Nathan Gonzalez
LOL which one of you salty faggots made this thread just now?
>jj lecoultre is nice FUCK I FORGOT ABOUT THIS. They make the dankest square watches. Will chicks mire them though?
Colton Rodriguez
Get yourself a Rolex, nothing too loud so you don't get mugged. Consider it as jewellery that goes up in value. Here's my white gold bezel Datejust II.
Josiah Bailey
Stop being a faggot. Buy a top tier replica Rolex Noob v7 nodate submariner for $400. Problem solved. I wear that shit and everyone believes it’s real. The sub is an entry level Rolex, you could afford the real one used for about 6k but why bother. I’m not buying a real one anytime soon, my money goes to crypto now.
Jaxon Parker
When do you expect the top?
Gabriel Long
Vacheron Constantin if you want to make boomers shit their pants
Jeremiah Butler
>Living in a country where people own things worth value / know what a rolex is Enjoy your taxes retard
Ian Morgan
>you're not wealthy yet, because you're on Veeky Forums Speak for yourself pleb. Not everyone is a loser like you. Pretty sure a lot of people in this board are wealthy now.
Cooper White
Jesus all you faggots buying nice things to impress other people are are lost cause.
Buy them so YOU can enjoy them
Benjamin Sanders
Bought my first Rolex at 19, a brand new GMT two-tone (gold/steel)
4 years later people still commenting about it but I couldn’t give less of a fuck
I laugh in their faces, poor niggers
Carson Wright
see i think my versace looks cooler and more tasteful than this not offending you dude it's a nice watch but everyone hurt my feelings i don't think mine looks that bad
Aiden Smith
I have a bit of an OCD about scratching my watch - so as a suggestion look at ceramic watches
Luis Parker
I used to work in watch repair. While I don't know if wearing a Rolex comes with preconceptions of douchebaggery, I can tell you that the parts availability has been pretty solid for a really long time but maintenance on watches can get really expensive. You'll also want to go to a watchmaker you trust to know what they're doing. Legit watchmaker's are steadily getting harder to come by. The general stability of Rolex also invites a fair number of convincing but fake parts (or whole watches as well) too..
Mechanical maintenance is going to run you about 3-500USD every few years. You want to check the gaskets, timing, and oil about every 3 years. The frequency really depends on environmental factors, though.
Quartz watches, probably 2-300USD and lower maintenance for the most part unless you need to replace the circuit. Change the battery every couple of years even if it's running fine because the seals in the battery could break down and leak acid even while running the watch.
On that note, generally, I'd wear a fancy watch mainly for two reasons: As part of business attire or on special occasions.
Jeremiah Nguyen
thats probably the most handsome rolex you fucking pleb
Jonathan Bell
you insecure anons are no better than rappers with their gold chains. at least they have the cash flow to support jewelry while you guys just pretend. go buy something that fucking matters and a timex and stop being such a small dicked retail cuck
Leo Jenkins
Great choice sir, the two-tone GMT is the quintessential 60 year old baby boomer uncle watch, only second to the two-tone daytona.
Austin White
a good watch is collectable, they usually hold their value or appreciate with time. I think a good watch is a worthy investment they are also easy to sell for cash
Evan Reyes
If you aren't reinvesting those gains you're an idiot
Nolan Murphy
>Bought my first Rolex at 19 >4 years later people still commenting about it but I couldn’t give less of a fuck
What kind of comments? Do they think you're a douchebag? I'm pretty worried about that.
Carter Carter
Get yourself some fucking taste, lmao
David Sanchez
>Rolex WHEN WILL YOU NIGGERS LEARN THAT THEY'RE UTTER DOG SHIT? LMAO
YOU SHOULDA BOUGHT A CASIO
William James
Your Versace shitbags watch will be a quartz generic movement rebadge. You are paying for a brand. Rolex, Patek Philippe, Cartier etc you are paying for craftsmanship, thats different.
Tyler Cruz
People are saying that it’s unreasonable to buy such a watch; why would you spend such money; unnecessary etc
It’s all jealousy, you’re going to encounter it but you’re also going to laugh at it after a while
Jaxon Kelly
I'm not going to argue just take my advice
Girls don't know Rolex or sny of that shit Just get a luxury clothing brands watch like ysl Bvlgari Prada something women your age actually know about
And yes if you're young like early 20s you definitely should find a regular job for fun and experience it will keep you from turning into a out of touch weirdo and you'll meet girls and fuck them
Austin Diaz
>literally the only watch you will ever need
B-but m-my Swiss m-movement piece of shit watch that I got ripped off in buying is definitely worth it.
I-it i-is a w-w-w-work of a-art that a Chinese sweatshop wo-worker d-definitely can't knock up in 45 mins for $20, wh-where literally anyone won't tell a single fucking difference between legit copies
Nolan Rodriguez
Shiny jewelry is for women and stupid niggers. Roll your gains into more gains you fucking faggot.
You'll thank me later after you grow up and stop having such low self esteem that you think you need to burn money on bling for someone to like you.
This whole thread is sad, low test, wannabe new money fuck boys.
Christian Anderson
>Girls don't know Rolex or sny of that shit Bullshit.
>Just get a luxury clothing brands watch like ysl Bvlgari Prada something women your age actually know about Kek much worse than buying a watch. At least some watches retain their value.
Pretty stupid for a man to spend a lot on expensive clothing when he doesnt have an expensive watch.
James Garcia
Well yeah these keep better time but come on bro. Horology is an art you faggot. It's like saying "HAHHA WHY BUY DIGITAL CURRENCIES WHEN YOU CANUSE FIAT DUDE HAHAAHA"
Carter Bailey
Good opinion sir
I shall enclose another picture
