The only way you can justify getting a 2k watch is if it has some James Bond addons.

And if it isn't waterproof, everyone here is gonna laugh until they puke.

I've got nothing against expensive watches, or expensive fashion in general, but I hope the rest of your wardrobe matches a $2000 accessory.

That said, the Movado watches that Archaic mentioned are pretty suave.

If I were you I would have gone with the Omega, though of mid-size the Seamaster watches, I would really go for this one instead:

http://www.omegawatches.com/index.php?id=286&details=1&ref=21230362001001&no_cache=1

I have the 300 M Chrono Diver myself. I've had it for two years, and it's as reliable as the sun. Nothing against Tag Heuer, but if you're going to have one watch for the next ten years (like I'm planning), then I would go with the Omega.

Watches are kind of obsolete. Buy a new mobile instead. You can get a very stylish luxury phone for 2k.

Definitely #1, the second one looks like a $10 piece of shit. And hell, even if it were free I wouldn't wear it.

I might go for the speedmaster date as well. Thanks though, I'll check it out when I go to the dealer.

I voted for #1, but if I had the money I'd get a Fortis ... should be good for all occasions and is very readable:

If I really really had to go with one of your two picks, though, I'd get the first. But honestly, pocket watches are SO much awesomer!

Yeah, seriously. Anything less than Guess would be unacceptable to wear with a 2k watch. (I only used Guess because it rhymes with less.)

To be on topic. I don't like either watch, but I voted #1 because I think it looks better. When it comes down to it, though, you need to buy this for yourself, not for everyone else. Honestly, if you're buying this watch with the sole intent of impressing people, no one will be impressed because you'll come across as a try-hard dbag. You gotta go with what you think looks good, and fuck what anyone else says.

Wow...why shoud anyone buy any jewlery at all? Why does anyone buy brand name clothing when there are far cheaper alternatives? By your logic, its cause they are all douche bags. So if you ever buy a sports car I can call you a douche bag. There is nothing wrong with trying to impress people, thats how you get people to like and respect you. There is also nothing wrong with buying expensive things to have a good image and impress people especially in the business world(or impressing girls (^.-) ).

Anyways, go with 1.

You missed the point of my post. Good job on having poor reading comprehension. (FFS, I even said buying anything less than a name-brand clothing company, although not the most expensive in the world, would be unacceptable with a 2k watch. You're really bad at reading.) To clarify, so we don't have to drag this out, I wasn't saying that buying name-brand makes you a dbag (I don't think that at all, and I WISH I made enough money right now to buy nothing but top brands like Prada, Gucci, Louis V, etc, but I don't at this point in my life [broke college student TT;], but I digress). The point is, if you're ONLY doing it to impress other people, you're doing it for the wrong reasons. Buy things because YOU like them, not because everyone else likes them. People that buy things with the sole intent to impress other people with their money are shallow douche bags, and I have no problem at all saying that, because it's true. Having really nice things is really nice, but don't buy it if you don't like it. That's all I was saying. And I'll give an example: a lot of people love Ed Hardy clothes. I think they're tacky as fuck, therefore I won't buy Ed Hardy just because it's popular, and a lot of girls like it. I'd rather buy something else, because I like the way it looks, not because everyone else tells me it looks cool.

I guess I'm saying to be yourself, in a roundabout way, but I don't mean it like "it's okay to be an antisocial loser, maybe you'll get lucky and find someone some day." I think those people need to change, but don't be a fucking robot I guess.
