Why do people ice their expensive watches?

[Jason Voorhees]

Why do these niggas think icing out their Patek Philippe and AP's is cool.Don't these dumbfucks realize that the value of these watches drops by almost 40% by icing them? You're doing it at a loss, because why would someone else pay for your customization?


I'm not against buying expensive watches. Watches are a good investment and generally hold their value pretty well. I also get that people get it iced so that it becomes a statement piece but why burn your money on a depreciating asset. Brub paying $50,000 for a watch and spending another $10,000 to get it iced only to sell it for less than $20,000 when you eventually get bankrupt because of the poor financial decisions you've made

I would prefer a normal automatic watch over a iced out watch anytime. They look ugly. You can't even wear it everyday, it’s not really a practical everyday watch.

It’s a common American theme. Immigrants save up money most of the time, wanting to secure a long term future

And the rest spend their money on useless things the moment their paycheck arrives. Even taking monthly payment plans, and other retarded shit

I agree with you but being wise and careful with your money doesn't get you bitches. You need to be a careless low IQ badboy

Just because you can't wear it everyday it doesn't mean they can't, and honestly who actually buys a watch as an investment? The main reason people buy watches is to flaunt wealth, and anyone that claims otherwise is just trying to look financially wise lmfao.

Yes I get that but wouldn't owning that watch already signal wealth and social status. 99% of people can't afford a Patek Phillipe or an AP. It's a bit like modding cars

Which is better?

This Car that Bentley spent decades making and designing, pouring in hundreds of hour, considering every little detail and perfecting it's aesthetics

Or this "customized" monstrosity that came out of a 3rd party garage in a week

The iced out watch just looks more expensive to the average layman who is not into watches, let alone people from the hood.

This is a flawed analogy, the equivalent of that car would be a silly chain like this
