Thinking about solving the problem in this way only if you are a watch connoisseur.

Patek's are absolutely top of the line, but maybe you need to start small.

Casio - Seiko - Omegas - Rolex - Patek / AP / VC

Longines' are superb.

True watch aficionados realise that Casio's are the God Tier :) it's nothing to do with the price of the watch.

Even with a networth of 50 cr+, many individuals choose not to buy fancy watches. I know some of them. You can buy yourself a patek with a networth of 8 cr also but it's probably not prudent. Aim to have around 100 cr (achievable through investing in a very disciplined manner with salary of 10LPM+).

Woww but how to get 10 LP month? Which jobs pay such salary? Or entrepreneurship is the only way

After 15 years many jobs can do that. Aim to reach cxo. And then stay a cxo for atleast 15 years more

Not by doing a job. I would guess that you're talking about the median price of a PP watch. Lower levels are achievable if you have a salary of 1 cr py. Median levels are achievable if you have a salary of 10 crs+ py. Higher levels are for the ultra rich.

Not by following the chutiya advice in that other thread "Don't work hard" at least, for sure.
