I have an observation after years of "watching", and I mean this only in a good way. The "best" watch is the watch that suits your own individual needs. Period.

It has nothing to do with price, features or any of the endless technobable spewed around on all sort of sites and forums. I've watched with great amusement how people literally anguish over what watch is "the best watch". They literally spend weeks, sometimes months, wavering back and forth. They hone in on a final choice, only to read a post or two slamming that choice or praising something else, and then the person is right back where he/she started agonizing all over again!

My advice is to simply choose a decently reviewed watch that fits you well, rather than languishing around all these web sites and forums getting caught up in everyone else's "mania" over having to get "the best watch". Don't get me wrong, these sites/forums are a great source of basic information indeed. I refer to and use them myself. However, it's sad to see so many anguishing for days, weeks and months over what to get!

The joy of a nice watch is in wearing the one which you yourself prefer and which fits you well, ... not in the selection of any theoretical "best watch". So the best thing to do is to grab the watch one personally prefers . . . and to return to the joy of wearing a nice timepiece !!!



... of course as long as said timepiece is a Rolex...
