I currently have 1 luxury watch which I primarily wear on the weekends. I’m thinking of adding an Apple Watch for more daily usage while being out in shorts/sweats as I WFH. Any recommendations on which to get or if it is even worth it?

Get a Seiko or something

Maybe a good field watch, if you want just a watch .. or the Apple Watch is also fine

Apple Watches aren't so popular around here, but I have one and wear it daily for at least part of the day. I also use mine for alarms and alerts on my desk and nightstand. I do find them useful. I can't recommend one in particular because I've had mine for a couple years and it's still going strong, but mine's a ceramic Series 3 GPS and cellular. I have clanked it against marble, tile, and steel several times and it still looks like new. I don't think it's stictly necessary to have the cellular feature but if you would like to do some activity and leave your phone at home, that's where it might come in handy. If that's not something you imagine yourself doing, then a regular GPS one would be fine.

Why not? It’s a good daily beater. You can also look into g shocks in case you want something that’ll survive a nuke!

I have the Apple Watch series 3 still and it still runs great. I only use it for exercise purposes when I run and lift but I got my wife the series 5 over a year ago and she wears it daily. I’d like the series 7 and so would she but neither of us are in a rush to do so given how well our older versions have held up. I’d highly recommend the Apple Watch, especially for its utility in terms of the apps it holds and what you can do with it.

I swore I’d never wear an Apple Watch…then my parents bought me one as a gift. Now I wear it daily. It’s hard to downplay the practicality of them. It’s durable, tracks my activity and workouts, lasts all day, can control my music, and gets notifications. My luxury watch is now reserved for special occasions

Pros: 50k bump, company is full remote, no time tracking software, unlimited PTO, 10k in quarterly bonuses, vertical move in responsibility and title, will set me up for future roles in different companies with the title I am looking for (so strategic move)

Cons: Its a startup, the solution they offer is adjacent to my desired industry, its a very small team so I wouldn’t grow my network as much, tech stipend for new laptop (but they don’t provide a work one)

Would like some thoughts on a 2-br NYC condo my husband and I are considering. $250K HHI (no kids). No loans or debts, both have newish cars fully paid off.

Offer would be for $725K, with 10 percent down. 30yr mortgage @5%. We would need to include closing costs in the mortgage, to keep about $10k liquid. Monthly costs will be about $5k.

This unit is special, very rare (we’ve rented in the area for 10 yrs and know the local market well). Should we go for it?

Additional Posts in Luxury Watches

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?

Help me decide which piece to get as my first luxury watch after this years promo. My brother has a strong relationship with an AD so my options are looking like green Omega seamaster, GS snowflake, GMT Batman. Obvi Batman is almost 2x the others but I’ll eventually have all 3 at some point in my life

Shot in the dark since it’s an expensive, niche, and quartz watch… but does anyone have a Breitling Emergency? I wouldn’t say I *need* the emergency beacon aspects of it since a pay for a satellite communicator, but as an outdoorsy guy I’m intrigued. $15K+ seems like a lot for a quartz watch even with the plb functionality but bonuses don’t spend themselves
