Do you still have your first luxury watch? Been debating whether I should sell it for the residual value or keep it for the emotional value.

My first watch was given to me as a graduation gift from my dad. He grew up dirt poor and made it in the US so it has a lot of sentimental value to me. I don’t think I’ll ever sell it

Do you still like to wear it? If you’re not going to wear it, I’d let it go/trade it in unless it has real sentimental value to you.

That’s what I did, but I’m not a very sentimental person. I just didn’t see the need to carry around a watch I wasn’t crazy about for the rest of my life.

Do you need to sell it? If not, just keep it. Optionality is always a good thing. I rarely wear the first one I bought (Cartier Tank Francaise), but with the right look it rocks.

What watch is it? And did you buy it for sentimental reasons or just because you could afford it?

I sold all of my original “entry level luxury” pieces, but that said, I can’t imagine selling my first Rolex (which was an original Batman).

Hi,
I graduated last year and was working with my university until last month. I extended my STEM OPT with my university before July 5th (first year OPT expiry). I got a new opportunity right after submitting my application & I notified my change in employer (submitted updated I-20 & I-983).
Last Friday, I got another opportunity that is way better than the current one and I don't want to miss. My STEM OPT application is still under review. Would it be okay if I change my employer again. Thanks!
