Thinking about buying my first entry level luxury watch next month. Undecided on buying a Tudor or a Tag Heuer. Any suggestions on which one would be the better option?

The better option between the 2 is Tudor. They make a good watch but their cases are just too damn thick for my liking. I wouldnt get the Tag at all. If you want an entry level racing chronograph you cant go wrong with a classic Speedy.

different parts are made by other companies under richemont which is as good as ur gonna get unless u pick some totally vertically integrated company like seiko/rolex. afaik all their shyt is still made in europe unlike other many other "swiss made" companies, i'm looking at you and your chinese bracelets omega. :umad:

most have basic movements but ur buying a carti for the design, the prestige, the flashiness, so who cares? if seeing a quartz watch tick would be annoying or make you look poor u can get one without a seconds hand.

this insane cac sums up my thoughts on cartier (watch on 1.5x speed)

"Cartier, the jeweler of kings!" :laff:

I can't tell if that guy's satire or not. :dead:

he has several channels where he plays a different character on each but even the "out of character" channel/his real life is pretty insane (thai ladyboy content, being robbed for his patek collection, random mukbang, etc). he's said in interviews the whole idea is that even if you can afford a ton of expensive toys, none of it makes you a better person and playing a piece of shyt is his way of getting the message out.

imo he's really knowledgeable and is one of the few watch yters with honest reviews, one of my favorite series is him flaming viewers who donate for advice on their collection

As a young hypebeast i almost fell for this BS several years ago :mjlol:
I like maestro as a content creator back in the day. Havent been up on what hes been doing these days but in my humble opinion this aint it.

I admire the intricate mechanical engineering that goes into watchmaking and this comes off more like capitalizing off of a following more than anything else :hubie:

After giving some though, I decided to hold back on getting a Tudor or a Tag Heuer. I noticed this watch from Seiko and thinks it looks good with the Arabic dial. What do you think about the watch or the brand in general?

I like the Arabic dial as it completely different from the rest of the watches that I look at. I did check some of the Tissot watches and they were cool but I don't see any that had this particular dial as Seiko. Do you know any other brands beside Rolex (can't afford) that also offer this?

if u want an arabic dial that says seiko then the one u picked or snkp22j1's prolly it. if u don't care about it being branded than u can get any seiko 5 and swap in an aftermarket dial. i like that it's an easy watch to mod so u can do stuff like this to it, that patek conversion... :mjlol:

Also, not 900, more like 24K

This just moved to the top of my list. Lemme get back to these TPS reports

when i watched this the other day i immediately peeped out his site. I wasnt sure if he was a breh as he was lookin kinda ambiguous. But interesting story nonetheless. Even more so if he's black. How does one get one of these is the question.
