How bezel clicks and the value line work

I rate watches from 0 to 120 bezel clicks. More clicks means I like it more. My taste sets the score, and I'll say when I've worn the watch.

On the chart, price runs left to right and my rating runs bottom to top. The upper-left area gives you more clicks for less money. The dashed line follows the highest rating reached at each price. A watch below it has a watch rated as highly or higher for the same money or less.

It compares my reviewed watches. There are no extra ratings or good/bad cutoffs hidden in the chart. Prices are USD, dated in each review. Estimates are labeled and official prices may remain unconfirmed. Equal spacing on the price axis means equal price ratios.

Only I assign scores. Unrated watches stay off the chart, and a rating doesn't establish wrist time.
