Take heart Brother you're by far in the majority - these watch ads are aimed at the upper .01 to .05% of watch buyers. That's WHY they have to ask literally 100x or 200x what a high quality Casio, Seiko or Invicta would cost. And I'm thrilled with my Casio & Invicta collection - I have about 14 of what are to me, their most interesting models - within my modest budget all of them together costing around $950 or less & bought piecemeal over about 8 years. Truly, to each his own !
JLC reverso is the one

You're FINE and God Bless you & your marriage ! This 100% unrealistic projection applies to the upper .5% of Grooms at most. Wedding watch budget of only $ 5-10,000 ?!? Similar to you, my Invicta Pro Diver Automatic Submariner homage, in Hulk Green has a Seiko Automatic movement, is stunning in beauty and was $80. I've got several Casio Duro Marlin Dive Quartz watches that are tough as nails & beautiful too - get compliments on them. Then my Casio MTP-1302D in Grey Sunburst Dial on Stainless bracelet is a STUNNER - A Gorgeous homage to Rolex Oyster Datejust, but unique in its own right & better in a couple ways (IMHO) to the Datejust. So I just laugh at all the over promotion thats rife in "WatchDom" - it's SO much posturing & show off ! I'll tell you what's cool - maybe you'll agree - I just replaced a scratched up stock mineral crystal on my 8 years old Casio Duro with a tough Sapphire one for $22 + a Harbor freight Crystal watch case press tool for $12 - thus saving this tough watch back to a daily wearer. To me, knowing these skills at upgrading - that's luxury !

@@psalm2forliberty577 thank you for your blessings. I agree personally I love my pro divers I bought 3, I wear a two tone blue one and I couldn’t care less if people hate it. Only thing I don’t personally like is the logo on the side. One day I’ll grow confidence to fix that myself. Funny enough I found out my most expensive watch in my collect is a Casio Calculator flip ftp-30 watch from the 80s my dad gave it to me when I was in junior high and I kept it in perfect condition I love it. See that’s something I want to get into. I’d rather have a watch I fixed up myself than to wear a watch I’m afraid to wear. Especially being in California.

We already spent a lot on the wedding, so my budget was nowhere near 5k, so I went with the very affordable but classic looking Seiko tank on a black leather strap. Perfect watch for me that didn't outshine my tux. Not to mention people at first thought it was a Cartier. Win win.

Get a moonswatch jupiter but buy directly from swatch- not worth a markup. Unique color that goes awesome with earth tones. They’re super light so they never feel clunky on the wrist.
