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.



yeah you better have expensive looking clothes to go with that watch.


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.)


Im a math major. I dont read words.


Well then, what you're doing is ridiculously impressive. I edited in clarification in the post you quoted.

I agree with CharlieMurphy... all those watches don't even look like they are worth 2k. Only people you will impress are those who know how much you spent (which means you actually have to tell them) and people who know a thing or 2 about watch brands (which is like what? < 1% of the people you will meet?).

Spend max $500 on a watch and then $1500 on something else, unless your parents are buying it for you then go nuts and get whatever you want.

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!

My friend has a pocket watch that he wears AS A MONOCLE.

why is this not a blog?

the only people i know who buy fancy watches are poker players...
but the OP seems to be either
1. "im gonna spoil myself for xmas and blow 2Gs on a timepiece"
2. ~19 year old subruban white male with mom's <$2000 xmas-watch-budget.

regarding the watches. they are hideous. try something less bling-bling.

Well it's more about style than it is to tell time, really.

I'd get something like this.

I don't like watches that have too many dials, and the second one has huge digits.
Also, 95% of people won't be able to tell how expensive it is. So at least find one that looks really well if you're gonna spend that much money on it.
Im not a n00b, I just play like one.
