10 Watch Buying Mistakes (and how to avoid them...)

Try looking at picture of the watch that you wanna buy everyday for 3 months. If you still feel like you wanna buy it, buy it

[@KeepingWatchUK]

Or if it’s a Rolex you want try looking everyday for 3 years by which time you may only be another few years off ‘the call’! 😉😂👍

[@gelmibson883]

Try it on is the next step. Pictures and measurements tell only half the storie. But yeah, in general, it might be a good way to avoid hype shopping/at first glance, you will regret it most of the time.

[@wans5885]

That's what happened with me last night, been thinking about Khaki Field mechanical for few months, watched lots of reviews, went to the shop to test on my wrist few times, finally pull the trigger. Not the expensive watch I'd ever purchased but it sure bring the satisfying feeling as it was low-key in my wishlist this entire time. Not regret it at all.

[@kastapostgard5306]

[@dhunter1133]

#1: Cannot stress this enough; a watch is a tactile experience as much as a visual experience. Beauty shots often hide thickness, which impacts weight. #2: Ask yourself, "when would I actually wear this?" & "what would I stop wearing to wear this instead?" If you struggle with the answer, don't buy the watch.

[@WatchesOnWood]

Rule one: I nearly fell foul of this. I convinced myself to get Defy 21 on the backing of your videos. I bought online, but was then contacted by the grey dealer to say they couldn't fulfill. I was annoyed but a few weeks later in a different city I visited the AD and it just didn't live up to my expectations. All those macros that i'd seen that made the watch special, couldn't be seen at a normal distance on my wrist - at arm's length, it was just a dial of metal spaghetti. What a bullet dodged.

I bought a Bulova Surfboard online because I loved the design and look. When I got it I realized that unless the lighting was perfect my eyes couldn't see the hands. At least I could return for a refund. Seeing a watch in person is a great way to avoid pratfalls and maybe change one's mind about the product. I didn't care much about the Hamilton Navy Sub in green until I saw it at a shop. Now it's a daily wear watch for me.

Buy a watch like you’d buy an outfit. If you can see yourself being comfortable in that outfit and wearing it to death all is good.

It's not my most expensive piece, it's not the prettiest piece, it definitely isn't the nicest finished, but it is the benchmark I measure all other watches by because it fits my wrist so perfectly and is just so dang comfortable.

Tudor GMT does not go with a suit as well as the Sea master or Sub. Try the Sea Master on your wrist. It is one of the most comfortable watches. More comfortable than a Sub.

It will be cool if these are the SOTC of the talking hands. One of my rules for adding to the collection is: will you absolutely buy the same watch again if u lose it?

[@christopherduke8935]

I only buy new watches over a certain threshold at a fixed 0% APR and currently have two financed. In this strange case, paying in cash is actually the less savvy thing to do. With climbing annual inflation rates and the retail cost of imported luxury goods set to soar, your savings are far better protected and have greater prospects in a long term Stocks and Shares ISA of managed index funds or treasury-back bonds. Why not keep generating compound interest on your own investments, with the added benefit of letting inflation pay 7-10% over your watch payment term? Otherwise you lose your time in the market (because you're too smart to save in cash) by simply pulling out those savings to settle the bill on the door. This is financial advice but I am just a dog on KZbin. Go forth and chuff.

[@christopherduke8935]

@@londonsfynest The consequence of 'hard search' applications on your credit score are only short term, providing you keep to the terms and have under 6 unsecured loans. Any more than this is considered overborrowing regardless of any cash savings or investments you may have. This includes phone contracts, car leases, and mortgages, more or less anything you owe on. This method can also be used to generate a better credit score, when properly planned, managed, and paid on time. Remember that it doesn't cost a penny more to do this but never agree to any debts you cannot budget and pay for certain. You are absolutely correct. A person may not want these applications on their report when looking to secure more finance in the near future.

Unless it's a limited edition that sells out before you make up your mind. Or gets discontinued after 2 years. Or updated with a feature you don't want or removal of a feature that you do want. Or has a price increase that takes it out of reach. Or it has a waiting list. Or the manufacturor introduces a pre-purchase qualification requirement that you cannot or don't want to meet. Or it's a second hand / vintage watch that someone else buys first. Or the manufacturor is taken over by a company whose morals / ethics / business practices are incompatible with your own. Or the owner / watchmaker retires or dies or goes out of business. Or you do. But sure, otherwise foolproof... :)

Don ´t buy a watch if you haven ´t seen it in real life, if it ´s more than 500 Euros. Buy it only for yourself because you really want it. If you cannot afford it without any compromise, leave it.

Keep it under US$300. Try for better than ten seconds a year accuracy. Steel bracelets are less bad than leather straps. Photovoltaic cells are better than batteries or dribbles of mechanical power. Those have sort of worked for me. Sort of.

Stop buying watches that have bubbles in pricing. Pretty simple.

Or instead of 0% finance where the finance cost is often hidden in the price, pay in full and get a discount instead…all the other advice is sound

Took me 12 watches to find the one that was right for me

For goodness sake, just buy the watch that you will wear in a heartbeat and without a heartache!
