So the idea of “buy it for life” is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment
What are some of the top items you recommend for this?
Love my Thorogoods. I don’t need them for work, just for awesome, and I have no doubt I will never have to do anything but minor maintenance on them.
A “quality” mechanical watch can be had for far less than that. Get a frickin’ Invicta for $100 or less. A Pro Diver uses the exact same Seiko movement you’ll find in TONS of watches upwards of $1,000. Watch snobs will shit their pants in anger, but the movement is what it is and it can be serviced as readily as anything.
