Why shouldn’t I get an AP Royal Oak?

It’s just the most aesthetic, alpha looking watch in the market. It exudes power, class and avant-garde engineering. Why shouldn’t I use my bonus to get it? In fact I think any seasoned engineer and executive in F500 should be owning either a Patek, AP or Daytona to show their power. Pic from Instagram:

No one is stopping you. You don't need strangers' approval.

Just looks like a lump of metal to me

Very alpha of you to ask me first

I’d rather have a Garmin Fenix or similar that provides more functionality than the top left corner of my phone screen.

Go for it. Be careful though, you don't want to be mugged.

If you have to “show” your “power”, you are doing it wrong.

“Alpha looking” != “alpha”. Asking the same question on Blind two days in a row because you’re afraid to drop the cash on this thing that you covet is very beta indeed.

If you're buying a watch because of the image it exudes then you're pathetic. Get an actually interesting watch.

You mean interesting like the Omega aqua terra or what?

Omega watches are mostly boring, but there are so many others - breguet, glashutte original, and JLC are some of my favorites.

You should buy whatever that makes you happy. I prefer the aesthetics of Patek, but I don't feel like buying one.

Seasoned engineers make wayyy less than an executive in F500. But, to answer your question, yes you should absolutely get it! And you should also get the Ferrari.
