Hey guys, new to the forum and new to watches. I'm 26 and have never owned a watch, it's not something I've ever thought about. However, I start a new job in Melbourne soon and was thinking that to mark a new start I'd buy myself a swanky new watch before leaving. I reckon I could swing something in the RM4-5k range and the watch I've come across in that range that I quite like is the Baume and Mercier Classima.
I've got a couple of questions regarding the watch if that is okay?
1. Firstly, would you recommend buying online? Or should I pick it up from a retail outlet? Any recommendations of good vendors, online or retail, are more than welcome.
2. If you were buying a first watch would you go for the watch I've identified or be looking elsewhere? Again, any recommendations are welcome.
Thanks!
