bwana,

i appreciate your concern and admit that a cheaper watch is most practical. my logic is that i can still make the most out of a car, while a watch can last forever.

i also admit that i'm spending more than necessary, but am certainly not in debt and wouldn't consider putting myself near debt for a luxury.

the part you mention about the harder you try usually means the less you have is also quite true. sounds like you've been reading some finance books! my plan is to buy this luxury then save literally all of the rest of my money during college, so i don't think i'm going too overboard.
