How much is too much for a Watch? I am looking to finally buy myself one. I don’t know too much about it.

There is a luxury watch bowl you can ask this in

If it's more expensive than what your manager wears, don't wear it to the office. Barring that rule, the sky is the limit and only your bank account can tell you otherwise

Depends a lot on what you want. People spend 100’s and 1000’s on watches because they like the hobby of it. I bought a Seiko early on, somewhere around 300 or 400, and it works for me, but I couldn't imagine spending much more on them at all. But there are definitely a lot of options if you have an interest in it.

This is not a priority right now.

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
