I have that Orient Kamasu diver. Already looking to level it up with a super sea wolf Zodiac, Tag aquaracer, Certina DS Action Diver , a CW C65 Aquitaine Bronze, or just say F it and save a little bit and get my grail diver an Omega seamaster and not worry about upgrading again.
One thing I did when I started I wish I didn’t, was buy up a crap load of these ~$500 watches that are just…not very good. I didn’t know what I liked, what to look for and just made mistakes that I paid for when I took losses selling them all off on FB marketplace. I had 8 watches, now I only have that Kamasu, Seiko Dolce, and a Sinn 556 that I bought from selling all the junk off.
I think you’re right, and I’ve been told the same thing by other watch enthusiasts but really I wear watches as a way to express myself, as of right now I’m not in the market for any chronometer certified or very mechanically advanced watches. If I see a Casio and think, wow that’s a beautiful watch” then I know it’s right for me, and I know that even the biggest watch collectors still have a little love in their hearts for a seiko 5 so I feel pride in my collection so far because they do a great job of representing me and who I am
