      I'm new to watch collecting and have been doing a ton of learning on brands, prestige, market worth, accuracy, and build quality. As I gain more and more knowledge, it's increasingly hard to not pick Seiko/Grand Seiko every single time unless you're at the elite AP/Patek level. Seiko/GS dials are out of this world, they're reliable and easy to service, and are priced so cheap that you could get 2-4 stunning ones for the price of one Rolex. It's like buying a Toyota back in the golden age of Toyota.

    Early on, I made a bunch of mistakes that I would just refer to his growing pains with my watch collection, however, it didn’t cost me very much because I’m also a bargain Watch shopper… I do have a nephew, expensive watches that most would consider luxury category… I like them however, I find much more enjoyment and finding the bargain… I don’t mind spending what money would consider a lot of money as long as it’s a deal! I don’t flip them, but it’s still my wheelhouse… I guess that’s a good thing because my collection is always 40+… And that’s even though I give away a bunch of gifts

    I only have one Seiko, SRPD79, it was my first watch in 20yrs but now I just can't see myself getting another Seiko. I was at a Morgon Jeweler in Utah last week and they had a bunch of Seiko but the cyclops were not on square or the bracelet seems to need an improvement for the price. The new GMT were cool but yeah, I dunno. GS is another story, those are nuts to see in person.

    Lots of snobs in this hobby that only swear by ultra luxury brands, Rolex fanbois are not the only ones but they certainly are the biggest offenders haha. There are really great channels that focus on affordable brands, like Ben's watch club or Just the Watch. But they are still made by individuals who over time develop preferences for certain styles or brands that might not suit everyone so "don't be sheep" is what it comes down to haha.
