My wrists are too skinny for watches

I pretty much agree with everything Vicktor Vauhn said, he "gets it."

Um... not really. A watch isn't something that requires grounbreaking technology for it to work... they have been around for a very very long time... Seem to be doing fine. The statement COULD be applied if someone was looking for a stupidly expensive computer and a stupidly expensive watch.... But I am pretty sure prices for computers are more justified than prices for watches.
Not more justified... You don't need to play your video games.
It comes down to justified to who?

Sam.... You only wear clothing you bought from the thrift store right? And even then you shop around and compare prices?
Get your shoes used, and only wear one pair?

Have any shirts with logos?

People spend fucking tons on jewelry, necklaces that do NOTHING.... If you are gonna wear a watch, and you have the money... why not wear a nice one?

Some watches get passed down from generation to generation, If  its a quality watch lasting 20 years isn't extraordinary...

So if you buy a 1.5k watch, but keep it for 20 years.... your only paying $0.20 a day.
If you have ever bought a pair of shoes worth more then $75 that lasted less then a year of every day use your paying the same amount per day for them.

A watch is a piece of  jewelry, and beyond that quality older watches are marvels of engineering. While no longer necessary due to modern manufacturing, the designs employed in old watches to keep accurate time are AMAZING. While its relatively simple to make an accurate watch now a days, making a watch that performs well used to be a true art. Many of the more expensive watches now reproduce these designs, not because its necessary like it used to be, but more to pay homage to them, or as an act of craftsmanship.

So you CAN go buy a $20 timex.... You can also buy plastic bracelets and a $10 folding chair. But some people want a nice piece of jewelry, and appreciate craftsmanship.

Not to make it sound too insignificant, but if your are an adult making good money a $1k isn't that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things.
yeah that must be right

because im not a complete twat like some of you and waist money on watches, that must also mean that i buy shitty clothes and own one pair of trainers
Uhh, no man that was the point.... Who the fuck are you to critisize the money people spend on fasion when you are doing the same thing?
That was the whole part about a $75 pair of shoes costing the same per day as a $1.5k watch...

You buy fasion oriented items as your budget dictates, as do the people buying these watches... they just got more budget then you do. Sure they may be spending more then they need to on an item... but so are you.
