My brother sent me a picture from a former work colleague (22 yr old lawyer making max $50k US p/a). The kid is very well off, family owns/owned a major retailer and he inherited quite a bit of money.
My brother showed me a pic of his collection, given he knows I’m into watches. The kid has pretty much bought every hype watch going:
Patek Nautilus 5711
AP Royal Oak
White face ceramic Daytona
Batman
Sub date
Hulk
Datejust
JLC MUT moon
IWC Portuguese
Panerai
Omega Aquaterra
Omega Seamaster 300m.
Guessing it would cost you $250k (us) to purchase.
These are all, within reason, the ‘hot’ desirable watches to own. If you put together a list of the top ten most sought after, he’d have the majority them.
It says a lot about his collection. I feel the guy is collecting to impress others and it appears passionless.
I was thinking, if he had true interest and spent the money he did spend, it wouldn’t be just hype.
The question is, $250k (us) budget… what would you buy?
