in Hedonism

No gentleman should check the time on his phone!

Most common misconception when it comes to automatic watches is that, in order to be taken seriously as a man who knows style, you need to wear a watch that is prohibitively priced.

While A. Lange und Sohne, Patek Phillipe, Glashütte Original and Rolex are great timepieces, you don’t need to spend thousands of euros to get a nice, quality automatic watch.

Here are eight entry level automatic watches worth spending your cash on.
