If you're using watches as status symbols for clout or respect, just work on your body for better ROI. Ditch the watch. A fit person with an F91W is more impressive than a fatass with a Rolex. Go hit the gym lads. You're going to get a lot more compliments about your weight-loss and being fit than "Hey nice watch."

And this is just me but if you have pudgy wrists and fat fingers, it makes your watch look worse.

Bring on the hate.

by getting absolutely ragdolled with individual stockpicking and options and crypto.

The path to Babylon is through XEQT and a peaceful slumber.

So they typically go something like..(and fair enough it's not just this sub):

Same cadence every time, short sentence. Longer sentence explaining the short sentence. Then some fake dramatic line like “this isn’t merely a watch, it’s a statement.” Then a forced juxtaposition between heritage and modernity, elegance and toughness, restraint and presence, whatever

Every watch is suddenly “quietly confident.” Every dial “reveals itself in the light.” Every bracelet “balances refinement with everyday wearability.” Then comes the grand conclusion about how it “earns its place in the collection”

You could swap the watch names around and the posts would still work, Tudor, Seiko, Omega, Casio, who care

Quarter of the sub sounds like chatgpt. As someone in comms, it infuriates me

Rant over. Sorry. But stop being lazy guys, honestly

Owning a Sinn says you understand the details and care about function and you see yourself as someone who sits outside the usual luxury-watch crowd.

That is clearly orchestrated branding and Sinn does it really well, people who love and buy Sinn are buying the feeling that they are informed and hard to impress.

I'm sure this can be applied to other brands but Sinn stands out to me in particular.

That's my hot take. Come at me bro....while we're at it, wtf is King Seiko.

Fuck it, Imperial Omega and Absolute Breitling, let's see them

I haven't thought about dividends in some time but I came across the dividendgang subreddit on my homepage and holy cow it's like being stalked by a crazy ex.

Dividend subs keep popping up in my feed, and the tone often seems weirdly defensive. Is it just algorithm-driven tribalism, or is there something about total-return investing that dividend investors find especially annoying??
