Just curious to how my firms (wealth management/bank/trust) comp compares with others out there.

Ladies - my GF is turning 30 in a couple months. What are your thoughts on a Cartier watch? Was thinking Tank or Santos. How would you feel with either of those? Or go an entirely different route?

How do Rolex waitlists work with respect to different models? Like if an AD could let me have a Sub, Exp 1 or 2, DJ, GMT, etc I would honestly take whatever is available first. Are there lists for specific models or is it sort of just one big pool?

Do the Explorer and Explorer II have ridiculously long wait time from ADs?

Why would a luxury watch brand make/sell connected or smart watches? What is the business reason for it? To me it just kills the brand value. For instance I was a big fan of Montblanc but after I see their smart watch line up I instantly devalued the brand in general. Same for Tag (tag is questionable anyways), or Breitling. What is your opinion on this topic?

Does anyone have a Farer watch? Or does anyone have thoughts on them?

Are men’s watches with steel chain bracelet type of band considered more luxury than ones with leather or rubber. I wanna buy a luxury watch so I don’t wanna make a rookie mistake.
Also when I go online there’s things about watch movements like Chornos, automatic , hand etc. what on earth do they mean. Should I care about them? Which is one is “the best”

Any Rolex AD recommendations/connects in Miami area? Tyia
