^I actually tried that, and it doesn't make any sense.

Why can't you construct your sentences in a more academic manner? No need to conjure theories of psychodynamics to criticize the OP, esp. the ridiculous phrase "are you that insecure?" Wearing a fancy watch is something that, IMHO, an emblematic symbol of "new money." That's the first thing men buy when they make some money. I'd advise the OP to focus on shoes or a nice jacket instead. No one gives a **** what you wear on your wrist. My uncle was a Jeweler and he wore a modest vintage piece while selling these $200K + watches.
No one, excepting the members and readers here, really cares about your jacket or your shoes either.

+1. I'm 24, about to graduate law school, and want to buy a nice watch as sort of a graduation gift to myself, as my parents are funding a European vacation after I take the bar exam. The unfortunate thing is that I haven't been able to save for it, since I can't have a job during the school year, and although summer jobs pay well, rent and utilities are expensive. I'm starting to save now, but I know I'll have to wait close to a year before I buy it... but it will still be a graduation gift to myself. I've got my eye on a few different ones; I'm thinking either Omega, Rolex, or IWC. Although I might do better with a more formal or business looking piece.
People this weak should be destroyed (your boss that is).
I never understood the hype behind tag. If quality is important to you then you can get better watches for the price. If looks are, you can also get way nicer looking pieces from other brands cheaper than tag. ****, I even hate the name.
I'm not a watch person (to me it is a waste of money) and probably won't buy an expensive one until I make 100x its price in annual income. But by all means, if it is something that is important to you, buy it as soon as you have the disposable income needed.
