Friends, I need your help deciding: should I spend $40k on a brand new Patek Calatrava? I have zero debt.

If you just have like just $40k saved, the answer is probably “no”. If you got substantially more than that in the bank, go for it!

funny

1.) Do you have enough money?
2.) Do you like the watch?

If the answer to both questions above is yes, then purchase it.

Would you buy the watch if it didn’t have patek on the dial?

This is why we buy Lange and VC instead.

What other dress watches do you own, OP? And why are you interested in the Calatrava specifically?

like

How much do you make? Do you have other watches?

Silly question. Ask the government how easy it is to spend other people's money.

Buy the watch, heck get a second one just because you can.

Wish I had this problem

What do you like about the watch? Which ref are you looking at?

6119g

Except if you want to start building a « relationship » with a Patek AD to get a shot at in-demand models, it makes no sense getting this one at retail. Plenty of heavily discounted ones on the grey market.

Thinking about a pre owned myself. What are folks considerations when it comes to pre owned Patek?

That’s my Porsche fund right there 😂

Sorry if this has been asked before but anyone have recommendations for brands that typically have a thiner profile? I’m shopping around for a piece in the $1k-$2k range (willing to buy pre owned).

ISO a ladies or unisex watch under 500 bucks, rectangle face, black leather or jubilee-esque bracelet. Assuming will have to be quartz movement at this price point. Thank you for any suggestions!

Brand new to the bowl. Looking at getting my fiancé his first nicer watch as wedding gift when we get married next year. I’m trying to stick around $7k, but would go to $10k. Is it worth getting him something now or wait until I’m willing to spend more? I know absolutely nothing about watches. Recommendations?
