Really love what the watch offers, but the price is quite damn steep
Yep, back in the days the early bird price was $169 and MSRP was supposed to be $199. And now we're looking at $225 pre-order price.
Adjusted for inflation, $199 in 2016 would be $267.85 today.
I mean, inflation is one thing. How much have wages gone up since then?
Relative to 2016-dollars, wages have gone down.
But that's not the watches' fault.
