A community for watch & horology discussion.
People are different and have different opinions in collecting. A watch you like now you may not like a year from now.
Best advice I can tell you is to try on a bunch of watches until you find one that you can't stop thinking about. Then wait 3+ months. Go try it on again and if you still feel the same a month later, get it.
Also if you're buying vintage, wait until next year. Prices are continuing to drop.
I'd you like vintage watches check out auctions near you
Highly recommend a speedmaster reduced , especially the second version ref 35395000
Actually my favourite Watch in my collection
I would advise you to buy a few cheaper watches at first to see what you like and don’t like. If you make good choices, most watches can easily be resold on r/watchexchange for 75% of what you originally paid.
Firstly I want to thank you all for your feedback. I made a decision and bought a Speedmaster Reduced for a fair price, I think. So I got some savings for my next purchase. As I bought a everyday watch, next should be something dressy. I’m looking for a nice Cartier Tank. But I will take some time. Maybe another watch will cross my path of beginning the collection. I got an eye on some other watches. With some time I should be more confident.
Thank you guys!
