Laaloo Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Here is a winner: Zenith Men's 96.0529.4035/51.M Defy Xtreme Tourbillon Titanium Chronograph Watch: Watches: Amazon.com List Price: $145,000.00 Price: $78,875.09 + $9.95 shipping You Save: $66,124.91 (46%) :haha: Read the reviews :haha: This review is from: Zenith Men's 96.0529.4035/51.M Defy Xtreme Tourbillon Titanium Chronograph Watch (Watch) I was drawn to this timepiece because it was 46% off and that my friends, is a deal worth getting. I anxiously waited for my new watch and when it was delivered I think even the UPS delivery man was relieved as he spun out of my driveway as fast as he could after hearing what I great deal I got on it. I put the watch on and instantly my world changed. It was like opening my eyes for the first time after being on a psychedelic high for a week much like I used to experience in the 60's. I wore it on my date and the lady couldn't take her eyes off it and when I asked her what she thought she said "It's something". I think I hear wedding bells in my future for sure.. There are a few things about the watch I was a little less than pleased about. I didn't appreciate having to spend almost $10 on shipping. I think the shipping was probably only about $8.98 so I thought that was a little unfair. I also noticed that the watch gets caught in my chest hairs when I'm slee
Holysmoke Posted January 27, 2014 Author Posted January 27, 2014 Same here. I can hardly notice the difference between a decent $100 watch (Swatch for example) and a $50 000 Patek Philippe. No idea why people would pay thousands for something that almost looks the same as a $100 watch (and they both tell the time). Why would someone buy an original van Gogh when he can get a photocopy of the same for 10$. After all, they look almost the same ....

zen Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 With almost everyone having a mobile phone, watches are becoming more of a fashion/life style accessory. The watch you choose, at times, tends to become an extension of your personal brand whether it is a smart watch or a jewelry. Do your self a favor by staying clear of fakes (not good for personal branding) As for me, I wear a Rolex. I, probably, have the watch for 10 years but it still looks new mainly because I only wear it occasionally. Would love to add an Officine Panerai to the collection in the future

Would love to add an Officine Panerai to the collection in the future I just dont like Rolex watches. None of the styles appeal to me, not a single one. Recently bought a seiko 5 automatic for daily office wear (I put a leather strap on it) and an orange monster for casual occasions like Sunday brunch, etc. I'm currently saving up for this one.

Recently bought a seiko 5 automatic for daily office wear (I put a leather strap on it) and an orange monster for casual occasions like Sunday brunch, etc. I'm currently saving up for this one. Omega Planet Ocean GMT looks pretty good. I used to wear a Seamaster long time ago when Pierce Brosnan made it popular in 007 films :cantstop: I totally understand that Rolex are not of everyone. Of late, I have been attracted to retro style (though I got my Rolex instinctively before I even realized that I had this fascination). I admire the classic style and how it fuses with the latest technology to create the modern-retro classic look. And importantly the all time classic style never goes out of fashion! My Rolex still looks like a new one available in the market today It is not just in watches, I admire Porsche 911 as well for how it fuses a classic style with modern technology. Every generation (more often than not) keeps getting better and better. The evolutionary process is remarkable. (I don't own a 911 yet). This fascination with classic designs and technology has trickled to laptops too. I have a Thinkpad with i7, 12 GB RAM, IPS display, etc., but it still has the old military styling or what I call business black. I even had some people telling me if I am planning to buy a new laptop (not realizing that I machine has some of the relatively latest 2012 tech :cantstop: ). I know that a year or two down the line, today's design may look out-dated, but my thinkpad will still be a classic and "in"!
Lurker Posted March 9, 2014 Posted March 9, 2014 As with everything else Holy baba, it totally depends on your personality, what you can carry and look comfortable doing so. Personally my thumb rule for a good watch is rather simple: a) Shouldn't be circular or squarish, I prefer rectangle cut. b) Shouldn't be steel belt, I prefer leather. If you have decent built, forearms specially, that works great. This is what I have been wearing for almost 3 years now. Very comfortable and sleek. Oh and don't go by price, you should be able to get this at half that, or even less. http://www.watchshop.com/mens-emporio-armani-chronograph-watch-ar0478-p99935227.html

I dont like rectangular watches. Much prefer the clean circle or a circle in a square (like the tag monaco line) Not a big fan of quartz watches. I absolutely love the smooth flow of the second hand on an automatic. To each his own.
