Maybe for Pakistani nihari takeout owners and uber drivers thats a lot of money, but for Indians like me in tech industry, where the basic tech salary pays 100k an year, it is chumpchange
. Even my internship paid 50k...
But putting your personal attacks aside, if you actually follow the watch market, you would know that something like an Omega seamaster can easily be had for 3000-4000 dollars(if bought on the secondary/grey market, not retail), it was even cheaper 4 years ago during my internship when i bought it, Watch prices shot up rapidly during 2020-2021 and there was no hype like that before this year. Omega is not even considered a proper luxury brand, most people can easily afford it, so i don't know what you are on about when you say no amount of rent money can buy an omega. Most Canadians can easily afford an omega.
JLC is obviously much more expensive, but really depends on the model, they have watches in ranges from 10,000 all the way to 100k. Again, most canadians with proper jobs can easily afford a 10-20k watch, it wont be easy as omega, but definitely possible.
