Picking the right watch is hard. Not only are they, on average, one of the most expensive single items you’ll ever buy, but you have to look at them all of the time. It’s a bit like having children, I guess: make sure you get a good one because they’re not going anywhere. They’re always right in your line of sight, either delighting you – warming your heart, swelling it with pride; really stuffing the pride in their, like its a calzone – or they’re enraging you. How could you be so stupid as to pick *this* watch/have *this* child? You stupid, stupid man.
But luckily, help is on hand… or on wrist. Not sure. Either way, I haven’t had any children yet but I’ve had plenty of watches, and we’ve rounded up eighteen of the absolute very best watches available for you to buy right now, with an option to suit every budget.
