Just got a new quartz Tag F1 (for a cool 15% off MSRP) as a first watch - mainly to get used to the idea of wearing one. What's the next step? An Omega?

Not an answer to your question lol but I have a F1 and love it (also my first higher end watch). I have the blue dial and I think it looks so good!

The next step is whatever watch you want and can afford. For example, I went from a $800 Victorinox to a $9k Rolex (Hulk) because I knew I wouldn’t be happy with anything before I got the Rolex I wanted. I then got an Omega after the Rolex. There is no set path. I think is what makes this hobby so much fun.

I bought it new with no purchase history from an AD in 2015. I do think I was in the right place at the right time. However, I don’t think it was quite as hard to get back then because the AD said they would have another in 6-9 months. I also didn’t pay sales tax since I had it shipped to a different state. That is no longer allowed though from my understanding. So, I got about as good of a deal as you can get in my opinion.

Just to add some color to the story, the AD I was at was in south Alabama. They eventually lost their Rolex license since they weren’t selling enough. I think the demand in that location also played a part in my ability to get it. Again, right place right time.

For those of you who got into FAANG or other tech company as a dev (swe, DS, DevOps, etc...) How did you word/express your resume to show that you worked on an internal product/platform?

I feel like there's a lot of client facing dev roles or dev roles that rotate a lot of projects. I think real tech companies have a bias towards devs from consulting companies due to this... But I've personally been working on a long term platform at Deloitte.

I really like this look and thinking about buying but talk me out of it. Feel like IWC has so many different watches, there’s a surplus in store, it’s bronze not gold, and may not hold its value like Rolexes do. What do you think? Is it worth it.
