I’m looking to get the Tudor Black Bay and perhaps another watch in the $3K range, before coming back down to Oris, etc. Hopefully it will work out.

This video should be included in the high school curriculum. I just recently got into this watch collecting thing few months ago. I have never been interested in superfluous things nor was I ever an ambitious man. My interests has always been finding out why are we even on this earth. But we desire all things of beauty, though what defines beauty is quite subjective. Watch combines art and vanity, the two often go hand in hand. Fast forward few months, I'm already on the thought process of getting 1 or 2 grail pieces and be done with it. But then I question the purpose of grail. I've seen people stay in budget collection for years. If life is just an experience, then all emotions are part of the experience. You may feel bad about amassing cheap Seikos, homages, fashion watches. On a broader sense, the realization and the regret is also part of the experience. You may go through life as a king or a beggar, if you haven't figured out the why, the end is the same.

Second, I'm not really sure how I'd feel about wearing a luxury watch out in public, or spending that kind of cash on something like that.

Indeed sounds familiar. I think the phases sometimes even return, but surely the path usually goes up the price tag - maybe until you realize that satisfaction in life does not correspond with your watch collection. Only thing I disagree on is the fact that you need to own a Rolex. If you like them and you have no problem with the image this watch has in many social communities, go for it. If you want to retain value - go for it. If you simply do not like the brand, style or pricetag - buy what you like. There are many nice alternatives for the watch enthusiast.

I was wondering if the ML Aikon would be a wrong/stupid option or if it is really a watch that values its money. What do you think about it? Do you think that, instead of buying a ML Aikon would be better saving for a Omega, Rolex, Hublot or... Any of those more expensive luxury watches?

I can’t deny I enjoy my Rolexes a little out of snobbery. With the Aikon, snobbery is out the window as it’s clearly not as luxurious and hyped as AP. I can enjoy it purely out of pleasure, just because it fits me. There’s a certain jubilation to own something just because it pleases you. Having said that, I’m sure tons of people by now love the Aikon and other ML models. They do things right and nothing in their products feels cheap, not even in terms of accuracy. That also is refreshing in a climate of overpriced steel sport watches.
