If you must know, I do have a university degree (maths) - I received money for graduating. I wanted to buy a luxury watch to represent the fact that I graduated and something to remember it by.
Sorry, but does anybody really "need" a watch? Computers and phones tell the time - sure. I don't wear (or buy) any jewelery and I don't smoke or drink and I've been wearing an $80 Fossil watch for three years. It is such a big deal I wanted to buy an Omega?
And I decided against the Omega because I couldn't justify the price spending that amount of money on a watch.
So what exactly is your problem?!
I've been following and contributing to your decision making process on the watches thread. You don't need to justify why you're buying anything to anyone here, I don't get why some people feel the need to come across in such an aggressive manner when discussing what other people have bought with their own money.
Like I said over in the watches thread, the Tissot is a nice watch, you will like it a lot I'm sure. Maybe buy the Omega another time, the Speedmaster/Seamasters are going to be around for a long time to come yet.
