    I've got a Tag Heuer Kirium watch. It was a gift from my parents.

    Holy crap dude. That's a good deal. I have that same watch and it cost me $1100. That was 5 years ago, but still.

    I have a seko Kenetic that was around $500 when I bought it. It looks a lot like the more conservative TAGs and has a sapphire crystal.

    Figure I will eventually upgrade to more of a luxury watch. Really like that Omega Seamaster that SamFisher posted.

    You and I probably have the same watch. I got my Seiko kinetic several years ago as a gift, as well. Since I take my watch off when I am in the house, the thing is never wound.

    I also have a cheapo Timex that I wear a lot of the time that was a Valentine's Day gift. And my wife bought me a watch of some sort for our wedding. I think it's a Bulova. I haven't had much opportunity to wear it yet, but it's nice looking.

    I still have the Gucci watch I wore in High School (one of my Dad's business associates gave it to him for Christmas, but it was too low-class for him, I guess, so he gave it to me). It's almost like a throwback at this point. I wore it from my Sophomore year in High School (1987, I guess) until I got the Seiko in 2000.

    I've never really been into watches all that much, but I like to know what time it is, so I'll wear one when I leave the house.

    ok well i decided i'm gonna buy a watch. i was at a wedding this weekend and i saw one of my best friends there and he had a pretty sweet watch from tiffany's on. i got the disposable income now so i decided what the hell.

    so i've been looking online and trying to educate myself on all the different brands. then today i decided to go to a higher end jewelry store to check some of them out in person and man i was stunned by the zenith watches. they are awesome.

    i saw this one in the store and it was amazing...this picture doesn't do it justice

    i also saw a nice omega there too...they look much much better in person

    [​IMG]

    also online i've seen some of the breitling watches and they look very nice as well.

    i can go out and get a rolex but i don't want people thinking i am wearing some fake rolex. plus i think there are simply better looking watches out there. so any opinions or ideas on what type of watch i should get? i am leaning more towards a zenith after i saw one in person but i just wanted to get other opinions or ideas from anyone else out here who knew about watches.

    I just recently bought an all black Guess watch at buckle...It was about $115...I would like my sugar mama to buy me a really nice one as I just don't think I would spend the money myself, as I'd really like one...

    Man, the BBS has become the Lazarus pit for threads... I've seen quite a few being resurrected lately... :D

    My time telling options include:

    Fossil watch - $65
    Cell Phone - $149

    I never understood the whole high-end watch thing... If I were going to spend $500 dollars on something, it wouldn't be a watch, that's for damn sure.
