I regret every watch I bought from a Kickstarter campaign. Every one. They are all gone now, and I'll never do that again.

I hate to sound stupid but I gotta ask you what a kickstarter campaign is, just so I can avoid it as per your experience.

[@FrazeCommentarys]

@@daverauti1170it‘s a platform where you can fund products from start ups for a discount. But in many cases the products aren‘t as good or miscalculated.

I'd agree, but Maen was born out of a Kickstarter campaign, and they are absolutely killing it.

I regret buying the Orient Bambino Version 1 instead of the Version 2. At the time, I thought the cream dial, roman numerals, and track of seconds markers looked old fashioned. Now that I have a few higher end watches in my collection, I can see the appeal of getting unique dials that stand out, instead of the boring non-numeral hour markers on a white dial that seemingly every other dress watch has.

I have regretted every micro-brand watch i have ever bought..... There is a reason why the big boys survived for so long, you just can't beat them

[@HRM.H]

100% agree with you. Except for my Formex. Have tried over half a dozen brands, all had quality controll or reliability issues.

Wow, interesting. I honestly still love every watch I bought in the last 20 years, since my first Breitling. In fact, I’ve never flipped a watch for this exact reason: because I’ve never been able to part with a single one of them.

[@Chrono24Official]

Congrats! You're one of the lucky ones.

@@Chrono24Official Thank you! I been winding up getting something new every +/- every 4 years. My latest is my first C24 purchase: a Zenith El Primero 49.9001.9004. It’s absolutely fantastic and I couldn’t be happier. A very welcome edition to the winder. Getting ready to add my first Omega and my first Tag, then in 2027 I’ll definitely get a 75th anniversary Navitimer. Then, all I need is to get something from 1972, and my watch collection will be officially complete!

How can people buy a watch that is too big or too small for their wrists? All watches listings have the sizes so it’s not hard to see that a watch doesn’t fit, especially when buying from a physical store.

Tastes change. I have a 16.5cm wrist and spent years thinking the biggest watch I could wear was 40mm. Now I wear 44mm on the regular. There's also the problem of not really knowing how a bracelet feels until the links are removed. I sold a Grand Seiko because no matter what I did, it wasn't comfortable :'(
