Started into the hobby (unintentionally) with the caravelle chronograph purchase a year ago, and decided a few months later that rabbit holes were so much fun 🥴 citizen was the latest pickup to fill the box. Next up is the orient “Kamasu II” to get my first diver. I decided that I wanted to go with only Japanese brands until I can afford my first luxury watch and then I’ll go Swiss, although a grand seiko spring drive is definitely in my future as well. Anyways, let me know what you think!
If having luxury watches is your thing then that’s good for you! For me I don’t need a watch to have a certain level of “hype factor” around it for me to enjoy it and want to keep it until I die. All the watches I’ve selected I absolutely love and are great value for their price. I’d also suggest you do a bit more research on Japanese watchmaking and its history before you make more uneducated comments passing it off as “Chinese garbage”
