New to watches based on a friends advice bought a date just 41 with diamonds couple of years ago. Never worn it. Is it something worth keeping to gift my kid upon graduation after a decade. Or are they dime a dozen and I should have bought some other model? Thank you.

I don’t think most recent grads would want to wear a datejust with diamonds. If I was you I would probably trade the DJ into something you would regularly wear (e.g., Sub or Omega SMP).

Throw it in the sea

It’ll only be meaningful if it’s a watch you wear regularly and is associated with you in family memories. I would just trade it in for something else that you like after doing some of your own research and trying on a few different watches

I’d recommend seeing how much it sells for. I don’t know the gray pricing for the DJ but presume you should at least be able to get your money back; maybe even make a coupla dollars.

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking. I didn't particularly enjoy either role and am not interested in moving over to the buy-side or some monotonous FP&A role. Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?

Finally got my hands on one. I was expecting it to feel much cheaper than it does. Definitely still get the quality feel that Swatch is known for. The weight is nothing like a real speedy, but still looks great imo. I went with the Mission to Pluto as I didn’t want one that looks too much like the real thing, and the Mars/Sun versions had the gauche white strap imo. Overall pleased for $260.

Went in to check compare sizes for an Aqua Terra (green dial) but now torn between that and Moonwatch Sapphire (manual wind but the case in the back is just 😍)

Surprisingly the Moonwatch felt smaller (even though it’s 42mm vs 41mm Aqua terra) but I’m not sure about the manual wind tbh - worried I’d break it

This is going to be my main watch for the next 20+ years so I want to make sure I pick correctly!

What would you pick and why?

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.

What is your opinion on this topic?
