"Buy once, cry once." I like that. When it comes to watches I always say, don't settle for second best. If you want a particular watch, save your money and buy the one you really want. I learned this long time ago, so now I don't waste my money.

The one key mistake in watch collecting is buying what I call « validation pieces ». Under that category fall the Speedmaster, the Cartier Tank, the Daytona, any Royal Oak, ie Ben Clymer approved models that you think you need to own to be taken seriously in the community. The day you realize these watches are just not « you », flip them and buy this Oris Diver 65 you have been wanting for years, you’ll be an happier person.

Thanks for a thought-provoking video. Buy what makes you happy. It is different for everyone. I have 37 watches in my collection. I have been collecting watches since 1974 and have never sold a single one. I think it is mainly because I buy a watch to celebrate a special event or occasion, and that watch is then part of my life. Each of my watches has a story. I spend much time planning a watch buy and then wait for a suitable occasion. When I do eventually buy a watch, I buy the best I can afford. Last week my wife bought me a Squale 1521 for my 64th birthday and, while it is not a Tudor, it is my Rolex. Yes, I would love a Tudor Pelagos FXD; but, for someone with my income, the price is too high for something that I want to wear while working, swimming, cycling, tinkering on my car, or gardening.

Love the buy once cry once model - HOWEVER, on really expensive purchases, (like that Rolex Explorer 2 for example, my ex-favorite watch), sometimes it's worth the extra cash to buy a really cheap knockoff first to make sure you even like wearing a watch that looks like that before you dump a ton of cash on it! I bought the Pagani Design knockoff for 120 bucks (the most recent version) just to make sure I even like wearing the Explorer, and man, the thing is so good I'll probably just keep it and spend the 10k on a different watch! Or just not at all! Anyways, I totally agree with never buying the second best, because if you're gonna spend most of the money regardless, you might as well go all the way - but sometimes it actually pays to buy the cheapest first! If then you find yourself loving the look but wishing you had the real thing, you know it's worth it to buy the real thing! Plus then you'll have a great beater watch when you're done.

Conversely if you buy the “ridiculously expensive” watch (we’ve become desensitised to the astronomical SRPs so that a basic Tudor costing 7 weeks mean net earnings is ‘good value’) all you will think about once you have it is how much it cost and where you have to be careful wearing it eg London. £6.5k for a Speedy Pro 🥴 buy once…buy a safe, buy annual insurance, take out a regular savings account to save up for the servicing cost, cry each time 😉 So, it does indeed depend on your perspective…and how much you make.

I'm a picky person who pays attention to the details in everything I buy, be it a new car or a bluetooth speaker, and always do my best to decide what do I really want among the options I'm considering, even if that involves deep analysis. As I am a "keeper" I am a faithful defender that the price is soon forgotten but the satisfaction remains. I have a lot of examples of "expensive for me at the time" things that looking back in time I'm thankful that I took the choice of stretching my budget or had the patience to save the extra money and went for them instead of having settled for "second best" or "good to go" alternatives that in the long run would bring remorse.

I have no idea why I didn't get the watch I originally wanted, a Rolex 14060m, but now I'm going to buy it--it's steep. Currently around 10k-11k but "buy once, cry once". Also, your point about the Polar 16570 is salient. I own one as well. It was my first Rolex. I purchased back in 2019, but I think it's time to let it go. It never gets wrist time and I feel it looks better in photos than on my wrist but the emotional connection keeps me from letting it go. This hobby is frustratingly expensive.

I’ve more or less stopped wearing all my mechanical watches as a) aesthetically I prefer the quartz and b) after 7 years or constantly resetting mechanicals and getting annoyed with their lack of time keeping precision the mechanical/auto magic has worn off a bit now and I just want a ‘set and forget’ watch!

Your last comment is totally true, to buy the one you really want and not a cheaper alternative. The problem with this hobby is that money is always an issue, which I hate. It’s always an obstacle in buying what I really want. It’s hard to wait several years to save up for an Explorer, example, when a Hamilton can do the job now. I love the Hammy but it’s not the same. I really want a BB58 but have to settle for a Seiko 5 because everything is so expensive and it’s only getting worse over time. Watch gecko did a good rant video on this last year about how even 20 years ago, with inflation, Rolexes should be in the $2-4k range and not $10k.

I like "buy once, cry once." I'm of the opinion that a watch purchase should hurt you a bit without harming you (or at least require delayed gratification). Seeking out accessible watches especially as substitutes leads you down the road of accumulating pieces that have no meaning to you at the added peril of eventually costing you as much as a possible dream watch, at any price range. 'It' watches are also the devil to me. FOMOing into a watch the Internet is clamoring over because you can't hear your own desires over the noise is a miserable spot to get stuck in. I'm happy I'm on a list for a piece that was ridiculed nearly everywhere I looked because I know it's what *I* want.

Unfortunately I would say as much as 75% of the time, having isn’t as pleasurable as wanting. Human beings love the chase, acquiring what they don’t have. Having said that, the White Rolex Explorer 2 is Beautiful. If I bought a Rolex, that would be the one. I had the chance but chose the Seamaster Professional. It was gorgeous.

Don't let some beautiful images on the ad to make your choice, buy something that looks good on you, whatever the brand is.

For example for my the speedmaster is garbage when you take into account what you pay for a terrible hesalite glass and a terrible crown winder…

Sometimes you dont like your watch anymore because you have watch fatigue set in. Rotate your watches every week and see how you feel. Men used to own only two now they average like five. So down size your collection.

I don't understand the point of using AI for this. It seems like a waste of time and waste of screen use.
