Wearing my luxury watch tonight at home and thought….why versus any watch. Asked Google search: Watch Shop Near Me | Chicago Watch Stores - Swiss Finetiming


Here are 6 things wearing a good watch says about you?

You are dependable.
Regardless of the style of watch, people who wear watches are seen as dependable and reliable. To others, seeing a watch on someone’s wrist says that that person is punctual and values not only his or her time but other people’s time. After all, time is money, friend.

You are practical.
There are many types of watches and most of them serve a purpose other than simply telling time. Watch-wearers who like adventure generally choose a watch that fits their lifestyle. They may select a watch that is sweat-resistant and water resistant. Their selection of a watch to fit their lifestyle shows a practical vibe that doesn’t come from smartphone bearers. Seiko watches are known for their durability and are known to last years without need of repair, even their non-luxury watches stand the tests of time.

You have personal style.
Let’s face it. Watches look nice. They come in many styles for all manner of tastes. Whether you’re wearing a watch to a formal dinner or for everyday use, your watch says to onlookers and admirers that you take pride in how you look.

You are Successful.
Honestly, we don’t really need to wear a watch with everyone glued to smartphones. But a beautiful timepiece is more than just a way to tell time. It’s a status symbol. A well-made time piece tells people that you appreciate the finer things in life, and you work hard to get them.

You value tradition.
Trends come and go, but a classic timepiece never goes out of style. You may even partake in a few fashion trends here and there. But one thing is for certain. People who wear watches value tradition. You value the hard workmanship that goes into making a classic, luxury watch. Traditional doesn’t necessarily mean old fashioned either. It means you value the high standards that were passed down to you.

You have a sense of adventure.
Watches like Panerai and Breitling are designed to serve you throughout your active lifestyle. Whether you are scuba diving, skydiving or rescuing a company’s stocks from diving, a well-made watch reflects your sense of adventure.

My luxury watch tells me I don't owe a penny on it and it's not even close to luxury but shows off like it is.

I'd say that most of the silly/negative things people have mentioned are grounded in some truth. But I'd also say any enthusiast of horology is probably also interested in the value of time. Our most precious commodity is worth keeping track of and if through the use of something beautiful, all the better.

It is somewhat counterintuitive to spend a great deal of resources that likely took time to accrue on said beautiful time keeping object, but what are we if not creatures of contradiction and madness, telling ourselves we're rational, thinking animals.

You guys piling on the thread starter but they didn't actually write that. Just copy pasted it from a jeweler's website. Of course a jeweler trying to sell and make money will say stuff like that in their marketing.

Anyways, just for fun :p...

What does wearing a luxury watch say about you?
  1. You are impractical. Because if you were practical you would wear a inexpensive quartz or smartwatch, not a mechanical and definitely not a luxury watch.
  2. You are frivolous and irresponsible with money.
  3. You’re desperate to be noticed but are clueless about what actually makes people notice you.
  4. You’re desperate to impress people but are clueless about what actually impresses people.
  5. You’re a pretentious snob.
  6. You're selfish, greedy, narcissistic, and egotistical. And have no values or morals. Because people all over the world are starving or homeless and you choose to spend four, five, or six-figures, or enough to feed 10 starving families for a year on a piece of jewelry that nobody notices or cares about to adorn your wrist.

Wearing a luxury watch can be seen as a personal statement, reflecting one's individual style, taste, and possibly even status. For some people, a luxury watch represents a symbol of achievement and success, and is seen as a way to express their wealth and success. For others, a luxury watch is a statement of style, reflecting their fashion sense and personal taste.

However, it's important to note that the perception of what a luxury watch says about someone can vary greatly depending on the cultural and social context, and that wearing a luxury watch does not necessarily reflect someone's character, values, or personality. i.e insecure douchebags.

Ultimately, the meaning and significance of wearing a luxury watch is highly personal and subjective.

Nobody gives a f...about your watch except the guy having a gun and planning to steal it from you in order to sell it for food or drugs..
You can buy a very , very expensive watch from a house cleaning company for pennies after a rich guy dies...You can fancy with how knowledgeable and rich you are about it after ...but your father knows exactly who you are...I know a guy who bought a 10k$ original Omega for exactly 50 bucks this way and he had a shock when I found out where he bought it from...At least he stopped pretending being someone important to me...A watch is good to keep your smartphone in your pockets giving less chance to your cheap android to be seen instead of the last Iphone model...
Just watch to the end:
