I dont really like any of those watches you listed… if i had to chose i’d go with the first one.

I’m a hussy for being able to see the movement. I \<3 exhibition windows on the back and some visibility through the front, hence why i bought the skeleton watch.

how is the poor person going to tell time if you dont buy him a watch?

then it becomes a game of: how nice a watch do you buy for your poor person who tells you the time? which of Joe’s options would you put on the poor person’s wrist?

Sure, if I only had 100K cash it would be stupid to buy a 100K watch. Since I don’t have 100K cash it’s not even a question. The fact is that there are many watches in the 100K+ range and that the watches i’m looking at are in fact “entry level” fine watches.

I already own a house and am on my way to owning another. The money I spend on random expensive purchases is bonus money, I don’t factor it into my yearly income. I happen to have a job where bonus’ are frequent and substantial.

Honestly buying a high end watch is probably the smartest “waste” of money out there, much smarter than buying a car.

I can dig where you’re coming from. If these watches really hold that much value (I’m not a watch guy, if you couldn’t already tell), then go for it. Thumbs up dude…
