I am looking for my next watch - I try to buy one per year, for my bday. My absolute favorite would be Rolex Yachtmaster Titanium, however given how rare these are, it us very unlikely I will get one.
In the absence of it, which if these three would you choose?
1. Zenith El Primero Skeleton; 2. Tag Heuer Monaco; JLC Reverso Duoface.

If the yachtmaster is your dream, how on earth did you pick these sad fall back options? And that’s coming from a person who isn’t a fan of Rolex generally. Just buy it off of Chrono - they are all over. Filter for box and papers with certification. Buy it and then bring it to Rolex for servicing if you think it needs it.

If you’ve got the money for an annual watch, you’ve got the money to buy it from grey

There is not a single piece on grey market in my country and I do not want to risk shipping it internationally, I would prefer to buy it f2f if I buy grey.

I think the JLC and skeletonized Zenith are pretty niche. Monaco is a good change of pace from normal round watches.

Buy me one

I prefer the C11 Monaco over the crown on the right hand side in newer models, it’s the classic McQueen look

Mine’s a Calibre 11 but I bought mine years ago

I would choose zenith. On rubber or bracelet.

I would do the JLC by a pretty big margin

THE REVERSO!!!!

Is it misleading to just look at Total Compensation from a $ dollar value/ Total Compensation seems to be much more subjective than base salary in terms of its value. Some factors might be:

RSUs granted on dollar value or by # of shares & stock price trends
Vesting schedule
strike price on ISOs & delta between strike price and real market value

For instance, most of value in Amazon's comp seems to be granted in years 3 & 4, but it's well known that most people last only 2 years max there.
