Save your money for what you really want. Be it a Speedie, Rollie, or whatever.

3K spent on an entry level Speedmaster, can get folded into a 5K Polar Explorer 2, which can be the basis for 10K Rollie, which can step you into a Daytona, which will lead to the AP or Lange or whatever you really want to sport.

The resale market and # of buyers for cheap watches is next to non-existent.

This is why I haven’t bought any watches. I’m just gonna wait until I can spend around $12k, and get what I really want.

I'm getting a Timex with a tan leather strap for more formal outfits, and I'm getting a Blue G-Shock because I already have a red one, had it since 2011, and I have a black Shock and an aquamarine Shock

Do yall have insurance on your watches? Just got one that protects against loss, theft etc with Hoodinkee. Figured if you're spending a few thousand on a watch you should get some.
there are jewelry only insurers too. one thing i'd do before buying this kinda insurance is hitting pacer or w/e their state's equivalent is and looking up lawsuits against them for denying coverage or other fukkery. see how many of those get dismissed vs. reach a settlement vs. get a payout.

I ended up with the Hoodinkee insurance. I don't have any other jewelry right now outside of watches but I'll keep that in mind.
