[Question] Are there any lifetime watches in the 800 - 1500$ range? (alien.top)

Looking to buy my first nicer watch in january to celebrate surviving my rather intense work schedule in december. Having fallen into the watch-youtube rabbit hole I'm not even sure I can call these pieces "nicer" but the ones I am liking at the moment are the Hamilton Khaki Field Auto 42mm, 42mm Murph and the Longines Conquest black dial. Looking for a daily driver that I can use for the next 10+ years. Is that even realistic in this price point?

Would also love recommendations in this price point for a big wristed feller.

How do you already know you're going to survive December?

I think there’s a something corporate song that goes like this? Could be wrong.

It’s been a long December, and there’s reason to believe maybe this watch could be better than the last

I really don't! I work with severely autistic teenagers, one of which attacks me quite often and I have a 14 hour shift with him on christmas eve. If i werent a foot taller than him I might not have made it this far lol. Hes a lovely kid when hes in a good headspace though! He was just dealt bad cards unfortunately.

praise to you. I work mostly with elderly but sometimes I do some shifts with younger patients in that spectrum (and some other stuff as well). it's not an easy job. So don't be stingy and treat yourself with a very good watch, you deserve it 😁
