The end of my premature watch phase.
I always used to have a thing for watches,
I used to make my folks buy me watches for everything, every occasion, celebration etc to feed my need.
So naturally, when I was forced into being a teenager I did the most sensible thing in my mind, to splurge all the "reward" money I received for one nice watch, the Timex (TWOTG7631-C2) for the first time.
I loved it, no matter what movement or brand i had finally done what i've always wanted to do because the smartwatch phase had finally passed (early adaptor) and all those unknown offer watches finally had great company!
Then it started to die down , slowly i realized I just drained the tiny treasury I had for 2 odd watches. Everyone questioned me of my decision and i was basically broke and i missed out on outdoor independence that every other teenager had at my age.
That very year made me set basic priorities going forward and even if i continued enjoying watches, i stopped myself from making any drastic decisions.
