Unnecessary luxury choice problem. (lemmy.world)

I wanted a Rolex yellow OP when it came out, waited for a year for it but then it got discontinued. I changed my 'reservation' to a DJ41 green mint. Waited 2 years for that and I guess the market cooled and I'm allowed to buy one. But should I? I really have a hard time struggling to know if I want the watch because I like it, or just because I've waited so long for it and it was a very wanted item during the pandemic. It might be a bit too big for me, but it's a sturdy good watch, but it might be too flashy, but it's a classic, but it's a lot of money... Anyways I still have a few days to decide. Not sure if there's a solution to make a choice I won't feel icky about later on. "Should/shouldn't have gotten it".

I'd be mad like hell if I'd lose it, for a lifetime, but I'll live. I hate notifications of my phone so no smartwatch please. I can't return it but might be able to sell without loss. I think I want it but have trouble picking cornflakes, choices are hard for me. I can get it secondhand but it's gonna cost more secondhand. 😁 Loved the questionnaire. 🙏🏻
