Why would anyone spend so much for a watch??? isn't it rude?
No, me calling someone a **** for no reason is rude! Buying a watch is just that, buying a watch!
What watch do you wear?

er, because I liked it
I spend a load more than that on hols each year and have nothing to show for them
My car has depreciated by more than that in 2 years
The watch makes much more sense than both the above

I can't find any pictures of it, but its a Seiko Chronograph Titanium.
After having Titanium, I don't think I would ever go to using any other material, it is so light it is daft, still going strong after 5 years without a bettery change (couldn't afford a kinetic
) though the bezel is scratched to buggery...
If money was no object, I would buy a Breitling or a Tag..

I don't wear a watch but find that when I do, I still ask other people what the time is.

The engineering in good watches is impressive, but with carrying a mobile phone everywhere i dont see any use for a watch whatsoever.
suppose its just mens jewellery if thats what your into.

I want one of those Casio Illuminators. Ghetto Pimp Chic 4TW.
I pretty much refuse to wear my current watches, as I find them boring. I want something mechanical, preferably Omega, but that will cost money I don't have ATM.

Ill get ahold of a pic of an old rolex i inherited from my grandfather. He bought it for 50 quid, its not too nice looking but we had it restored and valued at around a grand. Not bad for an old watch.
Ill try to remember to get it tomorrow

This is what i wear daily... cheap and nasty but it also works as a compass which is useful when trying to work out where the sun will be when scouting out photography locations.
I did venture into the nice watch market briefly with a Breitling Hercules, but after having it for 7days it was gaining 3seconds/minute so i had to return it.
