My wife bought me a very expensive mechanical watch as a gift, which I myself would never even think of looking at in a shop. First I was like, what the hell am I supposed to do with that? I already have a smart watch!
But god damn it’s growing on me.
- Because it’s such high quality it doesn’t scratch and looks absolutely stunning even after wearing it constantly for month. Normally I put scratch resistant stickers on it and stuff but they scratch everywhere they touch anything. This one nothing at all.
- And this is so huge to me and I never realized it, I never have to charge it, it just always works. It glows in the dark a bit because of the fluorescent clock hands too.
I kid you not, this is so amazing, every time I want to know the time it just works for months without charging and it looks beautiful.
Yeah, that’s my luxury.
Is this the class struggle Karl Marx was talking about?
