Definitely the only watch I'll ever need...... because it'll be the ONLY watch I can afford in my lifetime. :D

Truth :bowrofl:

Good thing is.. It also comes with a leather strap, so it can assume the roles of the work watch with a nice suit. When you need the sporting weekend watch, just swap out the leather for the links

Do we have any watch or timepiece fans here and if so post up your favorite brands.





For me i just started to really like them, i have a few very modest watches but have a nice wish list of ones i don't have the means for currently. I really want a Bell & Ross, Tag Heuer and a Panerai.

My current watch is a Seiko Sportura....this is all I can afford.

Tag Heuer will always be my favorite brand, but goodness they're expensive. I think I have a Seiko somewhere at home...

But why do you need a watch? That's what cellphones are for!

i like timepieces. i own this one

and a gunmetal freestyle with a blue face, but i couldn't find a picture.

I have a bunch of Seikos. They are all very durable however some are very cheaply made, so you have to be careful when you buy one... Lots of them use cheap folded bracelets instead of solid metal. I always avoid the folded ones.

My "daily" is a Tissot PRC100. I'm a fan of a lot of the old school Tissot pieces but think my next watch will be something of the Rolex Submariner variety. I don't care how cliché they are... the sub has always been my favorite. I'm going to get black face and two/tone silver/gold.

That's interesting because my daily watch is a Tissot PRS 200, which I have owned for about 7 years...it has served me well and still looks quite modern. Go to the orient if you want to buy a watch...I was in Hong Kong last September with some friends. There are so many jewelry stores on the street in the old downtown part of Hong Kong with used Rolexes and many other watches. I don't know enough about the subject but some of the used ones I saw for $10,000 US were apparently "deals"...I would have a hard time spending that much on a watch though.

I should have said I like some of the old school Tissots better than the new ones. I like my PRC100. Looks good and is a solid piece.

As far as the Rolex... I almost bought the one I just described about a year ago for something like $7700, but decided to wait. When the market picks back up and things are back in order I will pull the trigger. :tup:

^ do you characterize this as a new or old style watch? This is mine.

I very much want a Rolex Explorer II, but I've got a hard time justifying spending that much on a watch.

Definitely a new style.

When I say old school I mean these designs. This is from the heritage collection so technically it's new, but it's based on an old design. :D eWatches.com - Authorized Dealer of Tissot Watches:
