Mildly interesting

You are deliberately missing the point. There’s not the huge difference between 73 and 88 as there is in watches.

I dont have any expensive watches, but I think for people who "collect" them or buy them, they are like pieces or art.

The price itself does not justify what you receive, just as if you were buying a painting by a famous person that costs USD$XXX+ dollars.

For sure, if you just buying something to tell time, then you would not buy an expensive watch.

For a mere $430,000, you too can look like a Russian oligarch!

I guess beauty really is in the eye of the beholder

On his deathbed, he'll have a Rosebud moment where a single tear will stream down his cheek as he laments that nobody ever asked him what time it was.

I got this watch for my birthday. It's my first Citizen and the most expensive watch I have ever owned. I think it looks much better than the $430k watch that phibes posted. It's solar powered with a 20 year battery that can be replaced. I suppose the battery will still have to be manufactured in 20 years for that to be possible. Whatever, I hope I live to see the battery die.

I have an opportunity to buy a Rolex but even with the great deal of 1/3 it's actual value, it's still way too much to spend on a watch. And it's not something I could sell due to me valuing a friendship over money. If did buy it, which I won't, I would wear it but not every day.

U came the same argument for pens? A bic will get your message across like a Mont Blanc

[bachophile]

Btw I have neither, Rolex or Mont Blanc.

I don't own a Mont Blanc.

Or a Rolex.
