Where'd you get it from?

Cambodia or Thailand, I forget which...........

Surely you got one when you bought your new Bentley?

Wink

Bet it looks as good as the real thing though except under the closest examination.

They are ok when new but scratch up dead easy, water knackers them and they break quite easily. if they last a year you have done well ok out of it.

Is it just me that prefers to go for watches which are made by actual watch manufacturers rather than designer labels, for eg Police or Diesel

90% of the 'designer' brands are made by fossil. Fossil' watches can be picked up in the US for $40-$50 which tells you the. true value of them..

I love my raymond weil parsifal, which I have had for nearly 15 years.



(this is a newer version with bigger numerals which I dont like at all). The watch is incredibly thin.



i am secretly after one of these, which must be about the cheapest watch that Rolex make :

TAG is a swiss watch maker that has been around for about 150 years...proper watches...

I remember for a while back in the late 80s they seemed to be selling a lot of  'fashion'. style watches which were quite plasticky and bright colors, but they have gone back to more traditionall styles in recent years.

Sofa, - I love Omega watches. I have a mate who has a Omega seamaster and the weight of the thing  is just unbelievable....

the only 'luxury' brand i dont like is breitling....apparanty a favourite of premiership footballers, which is all you really need to know...

Thread is starting to take off!! I spent 500 on a pocket watch with money I got for my 21st, wish I'd bought a wrist watch now as I never use the bloody thing and got it for novelty I guess!!

Might buy a cheap one and save up for a decent one!!

Woodsey would you be willing to pick me up a watch when you go in August. After something similar to Sov - silver and simpleish, either breitling or TAG etc
Would happily ship you cash before you go and could pick it up from DTD one weekend when you get back.
Something like this

Yeah no probs. I'm going on 24th Aug just remind me before then. It would probably also best if you give me 3 models you like so there is a choice in case I can't find the exact one you want. I'd be tempted to get a couple of I were you as I've had ones that have gone knackered within a couple of months, but for £20-30 what do you expect hey........
