I didn't realize you were linking to some strap seller's account. I wanted to check out the watch, not normally into square watches, but that does look good. Not into watches that expensive though. I would not be comfortable walking around with it.
This was right below when I clicked on your link and I absolutely love that strap on that black watch. Makes me want to find a black watch to match that look.

It's a statement piece that I wouldn't mind having one day. I'd also get it to serve as a reminder to myself that hard work pays off.
If you get the opportunity then slap it on your wrist (2019 model) and see if it does anything for you.

I understand all the arguments for the fancy watches, but it can't overcome my own feelings of anxiety to wear something that costs over 5k on your person. I can afford something technically. I just have overwhelming paranoia about it. Especially when you understand how easily someone who knows watches can identify something at a glance.
I'm also not hanging about in affluent areas, so there's that. If I was guy in office work and socializing with other office worker types. I'd definitely have a bigger watch collection. Embody the American Psycho watch battling lifestyle. Like that Key and Peele hat bit.

Watch collecting is a journey of upward nobility for me. I wear what I'm worth and it doesn't make me uncomfortable. I want my grail piece though.

My worry is about getting mugged. If I was going to fancy event, which is not something I do, I wouldn't have a problem flaunting.

This was made for me. I put it on and it becomes an extension of me.

Currently rocking a seamaster 300m, well normally I am, but its currently getting serviced (cant upload images for some reason so have to link to watch). https://www.omegawatches.com/en-gb/watch-omega-seamaster-diver-300m-chronograph-41-5-mm-22258000
Looking at getting another watch for my 10th wedding anniversary, started looking at doxa and certinas, but then started to expand my search by upping the budget, and now really tempted by the longines zulu spirit (and get a leather strap separate)
www.longines.com
Or maybe this one

Or perhaps a tag

Or a tudor black bay 58, which is the most expensive, and not digging the snowflake hands.

Really need to try and find some local stores with them in to try on. Any users have any of the above and can provide any feedback?

Flipping brilliant piece.
There us a new Zulu time. It's got Henry Cavil plastered all over it, or the other way around. You can't miss it. Caramel bezzel.
I actually tried it on today. It's flashy like a Rolex. Feels like a statement piece.
