there are entire forums devoted to watch “collecting” - it’s SCARY. I thought it was bad “collecting” old german cars lol… I’m partial to TAG stuff but will acknowledge that there’s a big premium to be paid for the name, sure they are excellent quality, but the markup is astronomical. There are a number of other brands that are just as well built (or in the same ball-park at least) for far cheaper (or better for the same money) - Breitling has been on my “short list” lately… ![http://www.swissmade.hu/breitlingsuperoceansteelfishg.jpg](http://www.swissmade.hu/breitlingsuperoceansteelfishg.jpg) Superocean Steelfish ---

i really like TAG and ESQ. i have an ESQ, fake rolex(good quality fake), and a freestyle. i like the freestyle for the looks, but its kinda heavy and ive already had to have it repaired twice. the ESQ is GREAT! its comfortable, not too heavy and its always ticking. oh and it looks good too ive always had a thing for TAG’s but never got one ---

4 pages and not one good watch was mentioned… except the RM, AP and Breitiling mentioned… Not to be rude… but Tags are not very good watches… they dont hold their values and have crappy movements. If you must get a Tag get the Monaco. depending on your price range Good Watches: Breitling Navitimer Panerai Rolex IWC Frank Muller Patek Cartier Hublot ---
