Head vs Heart

I’ve often been asked about my decision process when it comes to getting a watch. Felt today might be a good time to answer, as the watch I’m wearing now is a good example of my process or lack thereof 🙂

I’ve been looking to get a JLC Reverso for the longest time and it was the next watch on my list. On the day I went to the authorized dealer to get the JLC, this Cartier Santos Dumont came from left field and sang a full on serenade.

I put both watches on my wrist, and I listened. I was shocked that months of planning was actually being overshadowed by a piece I just saw that day 😂

Do I regret getting the Cartier over the JLC? ABSOLUTELY NOT! Do I still want a Reverso? ABSOLUTELY! Haha. After all that is what the journey is about- enjoying what you have and looking forward to the next!

What about you guys?

So what is my process? Get the watch that sings to you 🙂
