I love everything about the style of T&H, however I’ve been in this for 30+ years and you’re definitely overthinking it. The only people who care about watches are other watch guys. The “average guy” has not one iota of f#%k to give about watches. People who have any sort of disposable income can be watch guys, but more will put it into family/vacations/cars etc… I’ve spent so much money on watches over the years to realise the only person who gives a sh#t, is the one in the mirror. Just my honest opinion C

Yeah i was thinking this. Most average people know absolutely nothing about luxury watches other than Rolex, cartier and maybe patek. Even fewer know about Audemars and omega, forget any other brand. They'd also probably be hard pressed to value any of those accurately and would likely think rolex is the most valuable of those brands. Still great content to watch :D

I feel like IFL Watches are extremely overpriced... That "Gravity" Seiko 5, a 150 piece limited edition, was £1,090. The Seiko 5 Sports "Blueberry" GMT SKX re-intepretation (SSK003K1) has an MSRP of £420 but it is normally available for considerably less if you shop around. I can't see how the painted dial adds £670 onto the value of that watch. They haven't regulated the movement or anything else that can justify such a wide markup on the painting. It's a nice design but I just can't see myself paying that much for a basic Seiko 5 GMT on a jingly-jangly jubilee...

An IWC that fits a large man’s wrist and can be bought for less than $30k is “baller and flashy,” but a little obscenely priced steel watch with widely-known brand that screams “rich guy” is sophisticated? Most people have no idea what IWC is. That is why so many people like it. I understand that there are small men who look ridiculous wearing big watches, but for some of us, a 36mm Datejust looks ridiculous. Some of us have 8” wrists or larger. Some of us are well over six feet tall (come to the German-Scandinavian Midwest), and our wrists get bigger as we age. Many of us would feel more comfortable dropping $30k on a gold, not big name watch instead of a flashy name steel watch for the same price. I am old, so it might be a generational thing, but after rap, I am not comfortable wearing Patek or AP on the streets of Chicago anymore. I sold my Rolex. My gold chain is white gold (which also suits my ghost pale skin and blue eyes better). I kbow you are Italian and from New Jersey, and that your words speak true to that region, but where I live, Patek on anyone under 40-years-old screams poor taste, or even thuggish, not unlike an over-sized yellow gold chain, or worse yet, a diamond-set chain on a man. To me, that is Patek Philippe, a young cursing man surrounded by call girls talking about how much money he has. AP even more so. I am more impressed by FP Journe, Czapek, and other exceptional independents (Maurice Grossman is another). If I were not in a financial situation right now, I would own a gold Czapek Antarctique. That is beautiful and does not come with any brand baggage. Again, this could be a regional difference, but here, a little Italian guy wearing a Patek looks considerably more flashy than a large man wearing a size-appropriate IWC (I know watch publication do not get this, but many of us have 8” plus wrists). I understand how size impacts this (my friend’s sub looks larger on his wrist than my massive Seiko Astron), but there are big people in the US. I lived in Manhattan for years, and I was not the only tall, big guy there.

In Japan, we have the saying "A Rolex and a Toyota Crown, some day" It's the typical, cliche go-to that every normie aspires to. At your 40s when you've climbed the ladder a fair amount and to show the world you're respectable, Rolex is THE symbol watch. I literally see Rolex, Omega and occasionally an IWC worn by so many people, they're like clones of one another. I know it has history, but Rolex is the Louis Vuitton of watches to me... I can't imagine they have taste, they see the logo and buy it. Their designs aren't classical to me either - the strange balance of the bezel and the dial face (it looks too small to me, it's like and iPhone 3G screen) with the ill-sized dotted digits...it's simply obsolete in my eyes. Which convinces me further that they've kept that design without aspiring for novel designs to keep it recognizeable, to attract the average bear who strives to wear VLTN t-thirts and a Rolex. My grandfather owned a few and maybe that's giving me the old-man vibe bias. But yeah, I really don't see the value in it, just as I don't see value in an LV monogram bag.

Your watch says virtually NOTHING about you. Someone might wear a vintage 33mm Patek from the 40's because they love the style and how it gives them a feeling of being connected to a bygone era that they are fascinated with. Someone else may wear the same watch because they are a "label whore" and it was the only Patek they could afford and love telling people they own a Patek. Someone else may care nothing at all about watches but wear the same watch because it was passed down to them by a grandparent. Someone else may wear the same watch only because they are an aspiring writer and found out their favorite author wore something similar. Someone else may wear the same watch because it fits in with their hipster vibe and someone else may wear the same watch because they are very much into design and the love the simplicity of it. Someone could be rich, poor, very educated, uneducated, a serious collector or have no interest in watches at all, a businessman, a teacher, or a pro wrestler - and all have the same watch for different reasons.
