I do really want a Speedy but I've kind of resigned myself to the fact if I'm this cautious about spending $600ish on a watch, I'd drive myself to the brink of despair on a multiple thousand dollar watch. At the same time I feel like once I got one, I'd never have to look at another watch for the rest of my life, which in my current line of thinking, would be great for my sanity.

If it’s a Speedy you really want, pass on this. Saving is tough but it’s tougher when you keep rinsing the fund! When I saved getting over the £1k mark made me much less likely to impulse buy another £300 watch.
I chose a Ti Seiko for my 21st Birthday (not exactly a future classic) and in the last 18 years it’s become a total beater, scratched to shit and the bracelet is very stretched which they’re prone to do. Still my go to garage/welding/gardening watch.
