there’s a guy on OT who does work for [theluxurybazarr.com](http://theluxurybazarr.com) they seem to carry all the top top brands and he can get a decent discount. Honestly I’m more of a watch window shopper, I really can’t afford to just dump $5k+ on a watch right now, especially since I want to buy at least 1 more house in 07… > [@BikerFry](#): > > :wtf: A 6 figure watch had better come with a pair of blonde Russian women that don’t speak English and love to suck dick… :lol: like cars are to many, a watch is much more than a device used to tell time. 500+ hand made moving parts inside something that’s on your wrist is a masterpiece. ---

Yeah, I suppose. I guess I should just be glad that a watch to me is just a time telling device. The last thing I need is another interest that I can’t afford. :uhh: ---

Nice watch! I love Movados… they have great style, and the quality is awesome. Here are my two Movados I picked up recently. The Blue faced one is a Movado SE, and the Black faced one is a Tungsten-Carbide Movado Valor. Both are awesome watches. I personally think the SE looks cooler, but the Valor slides into the “daily” spot because it is so damn tough to damage. Just for shits, I tried to scratch one of the spare links with a new Razor, a few screwdrivers, and a stone laying around…didnt happen on any attempt. :tup: to Movado for making a “dressy” watch that can actually be WORN. ---
