Current Events > Would you ever buy a watch you just saw in pictures?

(+) Yeah! (+)

i mean, have you ever bought a watch you didn't see in person?

I have never bought a watch period and Im 31. Every watch I had as a kid was given to for a birthday or Christmas. No need for one now

I have many times. I've only gotten one watch I've seen in person first, actually. Lol.

oh you're a watch guy too, i see. But it's getting harder and harder now to see watches in person. Cause a whole lot of people just look at it in store then buy it online kinda like electronics

I bought the Galaxy Watch based on reviews. I'm not really a watch kinda guy and it was probably since middle school the last time I wore a watch consistently (those digital watches from Walmart) before I got this one. I'm 30 years old. Galaxy Watch is so convenient and I feel naked without it now.

that's cool. How much was your galaxy watch? isn't the apple watch better? not sure, not into smart watches

Yeah, I get all my watches online. Between reviews, the listed specs, and pictures it usually goes pretty well for me. Every now and then there's a bracelet that I just can't get a perfect fit on, but you can always swap it out for a strap.

Apparently I spent $297 on it which is actually kinda rare for me to drop so much on a gadget like that. But I have a Galaxy phone, so Galaxy Watch pairs better. I've never been a fan of Apple products.

That's a hard question, what pricepoint and segment are we talking about

what about, no limit at all on how much it costs and a limit of around 45k to 80k. So like mustang, charger, corvette territory

I bought my watch online. A $300 watch that I bought using a gift card provided by my employer. It's a very nice watch, though I do need to replace the strap.

What era are we talking about? It's not fair to compare a pre facelift nsx to a current gen m3. Are we adjusting for inflation on original msrp, or current used pricing on older vehicles?

i'm mostly into newer cars, so cars like less than 10 yrs old. original msrp. geez you really want it to be specific don't you?

tbqh, that's still a hugely broad spectrum to choose from. Something like a Porsche Cayman GT4 for a 2 door, or a C63 AMG for a 4 door would probably be my choice.

you rather have a cayman gt4 over a 911 or a mid engine corvette?

A 911 is less of a daily driver than a caymen is, also a GT4 is a better drivers car than a base model 911 is. Now, if we were talking about the GT3 variant, i'm all for it (don't like the GT2). The base model c8 (even with the z51 package) is slow and less desirable than other cars it's competing against. I'll be interested in the c8 when the z06 or zr1 trims come out.
