My Run In With Watches

I do not consider myself a watch connoisseur but I have definitely started to take a keen interest in buying decent watches for my collection. I have almost committed myself to buying a decent piece of watch every single year and have already started an investment plan for my goal. But what is important for me is to choose a nice Watch for my Budget and increase my watch collection slowly but surely.

Now because of me constantly on the lookout for proper watch that I could buy this year I am constantly being targeted by Ads and there has been one such watch brand that has been on almost every single page which is ARGOS.

Truth be told at a first glance I was really impressed with these watches and the price point they were offering them at but as usual I did look out for some reviews and almost most of them came out to be a positive one and I couldn’t find a single bad review about the Watch brand and that was a little concerning for me. But still I was ok with having no bad reviews about this watch brand and just started to accumulate money so that I could buy this watch.

But while I was waiting for me to accumulate money one of my friends bought a watch from the same brand and his experience was not good at all. According to him the watch was just a bad investment for him as the watch face got scratched just after a week of use and the watch leather strap was just itchy forever. So yeah I have definitely skipped buying this watch brand but it goes to show that Brands do invest a lot of money in targeted ads and even till date this brand targets me as their potential customer as I am still searching for my new watch.

PS - I am not saying the watch brand is bad and delivers bad goods but it is just not for me as what they are marketing is not what they are selling.

Good to know, will you present your collection of watches in the future here in a post? I would like to see what people collect. I also wanted to get a watch that keeps the price overtime instead of paying 300€ on a smartwatch, but I don't know which brands/models keep the value.
