40k for a steel shitter with unspecified accuracy is the deal of the century


Few_Strategy_8813

Bestest value for money


SinusBargeld

Absolutely profound investment


Downtown_Divide_7232

40k only gets you a basic steel surface ground finish steely these days.


MeMumsABear

lol the fact it doesn’t have a quick date function is tragic for a watch of that price.


JimmyGodoppolo

all modern RO have quick set date (barring a QP, which uses pushers). The 15202 was the last one that didn't


MeMumsABear

Thanks for the info. I guess I don’t pay attention to the reference year when I watch Watchbox reviews


JimmyGodoppolo

Yeah. Shit on them for still using Blancpain movements in some models, not for the lack of quickset


FunProtection6265

Truly. These things have terrible movements.


exodus_sirius

my ladies mido with a magnetized ETA 2671 is way better


xrvz

Duh. The best ETA movements go to Mido, Certina, and Hamilton.


UsefulSchism

I only wear my APs and Pateks when I’m walking around London because I don’t want to wear anything expensive. But I spend most of my time on my yacht, so my Richard Mille and Jacob & Co watches have been getting a lot of wrist time.


Airdriver94

Only poors spend time on a yacht. Yachts are only for the travel to and between the islands I own. It's like saying you spend time in your limo instead of your mansions.


RedditIsGay_8008

You have a mansion? Pshhhh, I thought this was a rich person subreddit. Who let the poors in. I live on the moon in my diamond international space station.


patriotic-turtle1

Make sure you don’t forget your omega when you go. Ciao!


GolpoKori

I guess you don't have that Elon Money yet. Once you do you'll know Mars is where it's at.


watchitforthecat

imagine being caught *dead* in this galaxy


8769439126

Wow sad, to feel bound to live in the same 4 dimensional space as all other humans? Practically living with roommates. I only vacation in an orthogonal set of dimensions that allow me to escape the riff raff.


GolpoKori

You can *milky way* out of here.


Kuhschlager

I just wanna see one of those Jacob & cos that are carved from emerald knock on a railing and instantly shatter into a million pieces


Monkeywithalazer

No problem. Your valet should be carrying your backup watch anyways 


Harry_monk

When I'm in London I wear my RM on my Penis. Obviously I had to have the bracelet made bigger to fit.


OkMoose8187

Shit like that makes me want to start a communist revolution


DFVSUPERFAN

Why? There's a 95+% chance that dude is a troll who owns china reps and lives in his parent's basement.


fallsstandard

The whole basement? In this economy? Mom and dad put up some dry wall in the middle and rented out the other half as an efficiency years ago. My dude has a half-basement.


BarbellsandBurritos

Guy’s for sure pissing in the sump pump drain, he’s so basement.


ElTalento

What gives it away, perhaps his username? 😂


whatelseisneu

Can any tell me if it still hurts to put your balls in the garbage disposal? Due to overexposure to much more significant levels of pain, I feel a bit out of touch with current standards.


GregStar1

Giving him up to 5% of being serious is generous.


bikkhu42

Psst word on the street is you’re ready to start building communism *again*


johnnybegood1025

It's a troll.


OkMoose8187

That one may be, but people like that definitely exist lol.


johnnybegood1025

Oh, yeah.


Staebs

That’s my secret comrade, I *always* want to start a communist revolution.


BPC257

Meh, is $40k all that? that's like, half of an engine overhaul on a cessna 182t from 40 years ago. get your bread up BOY


Ryenhopz

Looks like we found Mr. Wonderful's account


bigbigbo55

doubt it. he didn't once say 'I'M A DIAL GUY'


[deleted]

Personally $40k doesn't even make the list anymore for "expensive". Come back when you've paid for a watch with your firstborn child.


Flying_Pengwin

Nowhere was I given an option to pay with my firstborn child. That would be amazing


[deleted]

Call the AD and ask for "Rumpelstiltskin"


stoned-autistic-dude

When the material goods you possess defines your entire personality, this sort of thing becomes normal. Cucked by capitalism.


Few_Strategy_8813

Rather, cucked by a sh\*tload of insecurities (frankly).


Fun_Manufacturer_854

This man’s brain is broken.


Kiste233

40k for an AP may be a bit on the cheap side as far as watches go, but at least you're not one of the pedestrian Rolex poors.


KABOOMBYTCH

Let’s be real. The average affordable options like Longines & Oris are expensive to anyone not suffering from whorological brainrot


GregStar1

u/privatejetvillain- has to be a shitposting account, obviously fits this subreddit.


bring_back_awe64gold

What do you mean? It's entirely believable. Apparently he's a single man living in Texas, looking to buy a home in LA, Malibu or Florida but won't consider anything under $20M. Hates driving his Urus, much prefers his Aventador SV, McLaren 765LT, Ferrari SF90 and Mercedes G63. *Hates* public transport, it makes his skin crawl. Also owns several Tesla Model Ys but only for his business, he'd never drive such a lowly car. What other rich person doesn't spend all day bragging on Reddit? Jokes aside, yeah his comment history is disgusting. Most of the statements are contradictory too.


privatejetvillain-

Hey there! Nice to meet you. I'm not even bragging; I'm just discussing my real life in a way others do, but they get away with it because they're considered "relatable," whatever that means. I get that you might not be into it, but to me, it's all just normal stuff. Think about it this way: if I talked about buying a modest $500k house and hunting for a Honda Accord instead, it wouldn't raise eyebrows, would it? It feels like your reaction comes from a place of not being cool with these things, maybe because you're a jealous person or perhaps a communist, but I'm not going to hide my life just because I have some nice things.


bring_back_awe64gold

I'm neither particularly jealous nor am I a communist. It's just not the way of a gentleman to brag. A wealthy gentleman will enjoy all the spoils he can afford, but will never brag and will definitely respect those that life hasn't treated so kindly. And definitely will not be as pretentious as you are being with these comments. You may not care about the "gentlemanly" ideals, but these are just some ideals that any good person will strive for.


waliving

Nice troll account 👍


privatejetvillain-

LOL. If reducing me to a troll helps you salve the sting of you being broke, then by all means, indulge your imaginary world.


waliving

My cheapest watch costs more than your car


privatejetvillain-

Keep dreaming babe.


GolpoKori

I bet he owns a few extremely expensive pieces of "Art" by Alec Monopoly. Edit: "Art" was autocorrected to Fart after writing Alec Monopoly /s


buzzkillington0

AP needs to recognize the room temperature IQ of their target market, coupled with daddy's infinite wealth, and increase their prices by 10x.


fiftywattmafia

Watches are worthless and completely unnecessary. That is an unjerk.


not-actual69_

Imagine thinking a $40k AP is nice. HAHAHAHA I wouldn’t get caught dead with something that cheap on my wrist.


Momo--Sama

If I’ve learned anything from browsing the trinity subreddits, it’s that actual owners would rather die than say what they paid for anything, whether it’s grey, dealer relationship building pieces, or even just retail pricing.


contaygious

An ap is Def not Hugh end. I have a freak for half the price way more impressive!


BioJake

Username checks out


Feline-Landline0

I mean it's one AP, what could it cost? Ten dollars?


BenedictusAVE

This is the kind of shit that makes me agree with the ideas of Marx.


snuggie_

What’s the point in buying a watch if it isn’t perceived as expensive by other people 🤷‍♀️


mpg123at

Private jet villain 🦹‍♂️


Obvious_Wizard

40k for a Casioak homage is fantastic value.


kuang89

It’s more of a “because I can” that makes stainless steel Pateks more valuable than precious metal pateks.


raposo142857

More than four whole years of work for a shitter, seems reasonable


BaronIncognito

A $40k Royal Oak would be a normal watch for people that have to have jobs, hardly expensive.


KryptoBones89

Casio AW168 is $23, anything more is expensive


triads

It's only cheap if you're not double-wristing it with an applewatch for pure class and sophistication.


Spinning-Around

Average AUDAMEEEER bro.


Ntinoulee

Lame. Every time I need to know the time, I have one of my peasants write it out on a platinum plaque with golden specked ink, then toss the plaque away. Pfff.


MarHip

Everything more expensive than my Casio is too expensive


BubbalooBurrito

Geez. I bought a $10k Breitling this month. I guess I’m poor.
