Hey guys recently I've been getting more into watches and picked up a Swiss TAG Heuer chronograph watch at a great price used but in new condition.
What are your thoughts on the benefits of wearing a more expensive watch in terms of hooking up with girls? Do you feel like it changes for a designer watch v Swiss and do you think it could actually be worse in terms of placing yourself into 'boyfriend material'?
Also in terms of business/networking/client acquisition anybody who's noticed a positive ROI from wearing a luxury watch?

High-end watches only make a difference for people that actually know stuff about watches. Girls really only know about Rolex and yes it will attract them, however not for the reasons you want. People who were these expensive watches are also more expected to have fancier dates, although not always.
My advice is to pick a watch that looks really clean and suits your style. It's better to have a watch that looks good and expensive than it is to have an expensive watch that doesn't resonate with normal people.

I'm rocking this watch right now. It's a medium-prized watch, the colors really pop and the symbol of the globe fits my personality of someone who travels often and is adventurous.

In the finance industry, yeah I think it does.
People come to work from all kinds of different backgrounds: ethnicities, religious upbringing, etc. But when you find that slight commonality of, "Is that an Omega? No it's a Rolex, blah blah", there is that mark of recognition that you belong to a certain class.
With girls, I have no idea---but women do love shiny things.

@Hedon
I recommend you start a log around your specific goals rather than one off threads such as this btw
We try and discourage this sort of thing and rather you have a log and change the title to make posts like this

Same as shoes most girls won't notice -- the girls that do notice / give you a compliment are going out of their way and would compliment you on something else instead.Hedon wrote: ↑Fri Dec 09, 2022 9:57 amHey guys recently I've been getting more into watches and picked up a Swiss TAG Heuer chronograph watch at a great price used but in new condition.

Bigger impact would potentially be if you feel extra good / ballsy wearing your dream watch or w/e

Nah girls in my experience are way more clued up on shoes
Especially if they are primarily sneaker girls
Granted i have 'mens style consultant' in my tinder bio so its screening some in

I got a rolex oyster but its stainless steel and not that flashy. I do think it helps somewhat with girls but this is also balanced out by my fear that theyll steal it at 3am when im asleep after bringing them home and fucking them. I also dont really know shit about fashion so defer to the experts here

expensive watches are like big muscles, only dudes come to you and make you a compliment about that.
If you are into that, cool, it's a great way to network with HNWI, but for SMV, it's a complete pass

Buy a high-end watch that's being traded on the grey market, for example on Chrono24. Sign up there and you'll get to see how the value for each watch has developed over time too. People keep buying these $500 random brand watches that end up being effectively worthless as soon as you walk outta the store with them, TAG is an okay choice on a budget as they have many models that hold their value over time, or even increase slightly in value over time.
Watches are beautiful accessories and generally compliment your style, but they're like fancy cars in the sense that most people expect to get laid with them but end up instead getting just heaps of male attention. There ARE exceptions to this, however, the Lamborghinis of the watch world, ie. AP Royal Oaks which stand out so much that you'll randomly attract gold diggers who've memorized that these watches are generally $50k and up.
In business though watches are a great conversation piece, and can demonstrate a certain level of success but won't ever alone open any doors for you.

Perfect, okay man will do so.
Thanks everybody for your thoughts, looks like most agree watches are more of a ‘guy’ thing and so maybe more beneficial for biz rather than girls.
It’s true about the shoes being more important for girls lol, it’s insane the amount of girls I’ve met who told me how they judge a guy by his footwear and how much of a turn off bad shoes can be.

I look forward to reading a log of yours tbh, seems like you achieved a bunch already and it’d be good to see what you want to do next

They don't care tbh and 99% won't notice the watch. I know someone who wears a real Rolex, he says almost nobody notices, especially women. Many will also think it's fake unless you're rich af. If someone doesn't make more than 5-6k net per month + owns good material goods in other areas, it's cringe anyway.

I've had a Tag for the last 3 years or so. It's a 'high-end' watch in some senses but really only something that girls know like a Rolex or a Patek matter. The only compliments i've ever had on my watch has all come from guys and even then it's like 3 compliments total across 3 years.
A Tag will not make an appreciable different in any way, 99.9% of girls don't know the brand.
Get it because you like it, not to impress others because a Tag won't work for that

I'm about to treat myself to a two-tone Cartier Santos watch for my 30th bday. Not for girls, but because I want it.
But I am also targeting more elegant/boujee girls these days, many of whom will know Cartier and will be impressed by the piece. But again, I'm not doing this for the girls.
Depending on what type of girls you're going for, stuff like this gives you a non-trivial boost at least in a place like Los Angeles.

Yes since I made the post I've worn the watch in night game and 100% girls have noticed it, a few have tried to guess if I'm in 'real estate' or something lol.
Nice one man! Cartier Santos is a great watch and deffo a elegant piece. You're right though, higher end girls do absolutely love Cartier
