Watches can be an intimidating subject. Not only are nice ones often very expensive, but people who really know about watches are passionate and often very knowledgeable on the subject. If you feel overwhelmed, don’t worry, I was right there with you not that long ago. But I took the leap into the world of watches, and am so glad I did.
