So the idea of "buy it for life" is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment

What are some of the top items you recommend for this?

The reason invicta watches usually cost around $100 dollars is because they generally, though not always, lack a sapphire crystal. Mineral crystals scratch very easily and are unsuitable for daily wear unless you work from home or something. Shit I ruined one changing my laundry once.

So you destroyed it to the point of not working, or you put a tiny scratch that only a total bitch would care about into the glass which can be easily replaced?

BIFL does not mean "maintenance free for eternity." Shit needs to get fixed sometimes.
