Moreover, more interesting watches can be had for a lesser price; mechanically superior (by design, complications, and material quality) watches are available at each price point at which a Rolex may be found. What is required to access these other watches is, of course, knowledge -- about horology, history, mechanical craftsmanship, the luxury watch market, and so forth. And thus, in purchasing a Rolex, the wearer reveals the complete absence of that learning.
To be clear: Rolex makes a good watch. A fine watch. Just like BMW makes a great car. And there is a reason for its celebrity -- people wear current Presidentials and Daytonas on the shoulders of earlier generations of Rolex craft, just as the 20-something rides about in his fresh new 335i ignorant of but still due to the excellence of the 2002. But there are better options. |

Not to mention it's probably THE most faked watch in the world, and tons of TTT brands like Seiko have copied the look. So yo usee someone wearing one, you can't tell if it's a fake rolex, a real rolex, or a $100 Seiko.
That being said, fuck it, I still want one. |

If you really want to blow closer to that amount, just get a rolex Sub-C |

An understated European watch with a leather wristband and claims to "historical significance" is best. |
|
Date: May 23rd, 2012 3:52 PM
IWCs can totally be had in that price range.
Just the fact that you mentioned IWC and Patek together so casually shows the breadth of your idiocy. |

It is a beautiful watch and looks great. I get complements on it all the time and it is not too over the top.
You can pick it up between $5k and $10 depending what style you get. (gold, white gold, steel, etc.)

This is what happens to the bands. It takes 20 years of daily wear for it to get like this. |

he wears a non-descript watch, can't remember the brand, but i think he told me he paid like $400 for it. similarly well off guys he knows and hangs out with don't wear anything especially expensive, at least not day to day.
lol at nigger-rich white collar strivers blowing money on this for social signaling. may as well start wearing chains and get rims on your piece of shit A6. |
