I have watches from these guys: http://www.tissot.ch/index_offer.php?c=eu&l=enI have the PRS200 with the blue face and an all stainless steel T-Touch. I like them. They're dressy but not tacky or Gino-y/Niggery.

Tissots are VERY sexy watches, Tatty. I just use my phone as a watch.

Thanks,G. I don't wear a lot of jewelry so I figured I'd spring for something nice. They're decent quality so I got a second one.I'm brand loyal as hell. I'm such a technotard that I never remember that my phone can do more than just call people...

My regular watch is a skagen. It reminds me of Lawrence Olivier's car in Marathon Man. I'm not sure why. The pic is too big for the page but I left the link.

I've got a Fossil sports watch for casual wear and a dressier Guess watch when I have to look a little more self-absorbed or snobby.

That watch is too large for your wrist. When you have small limp wrists like that you should wear a smaller watch.

I think there's a middle ground.
I won't spend more than a hundred bucks on a watch because all I want from them is the time of day. I trash watches like Brandon tosses back valtrex. If whatever watch I'm wearing is in too bad a shape for a wedding or other formal event I'll just go without. Without wearing walmart clothes, I will go as cheaply as I can get by with when it comes to clothing (though I wouldn't even appear in a porno movie without cuffs in my suit pants). I will drop money on things more important to me like tools or electronics or real property and to some extent food. I will spend bucks on things that bring pleasure and/or utility to myself, but will not spend money to impress others.
I think some people who spend megabucks on clothes and watches probably feel the same way but would be content to fish with a Zebco rod & reel and rent an apartment.
I'm sporting this cheap Fossil until I finally break the crystal.

This watch looks cheap indeed. It is the cheapest price range that Fossil offers. Currently today's version of this watch MSRPs at $65.00, the Relic (Wal-Mart and Kohl's version of rebadged Fossil) equivalent is probably $50.00-$55.00. It has a basic but quality Fossil movement. But I do like these spikes hous marks.

Hey, go nuts and buy crap. Nobody's stopping you. It's about priorities. Personally, though, I'd like a nice tailored suit if I'm going to a wedding reception rather than something I can buy at Wal-Mart. I'd like to have a nice pair of dress shoes for a formal occasion than some crap made in China. But, hey, do your thing and I'll do mine. Don't forget though:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=fW_QCRGvT-g
Your suit and shoes will still be made in China. Unless you are willing to break the $3,000 barrier.

Nicest watch I ever had was a Guess? watch I found at the bottom of a river while swimming in Missouri when I was fifteen. It was still working, and nobody in the vicinity claimed it, so I kept it. Don't really wear watches too often.

not so, good sir. Check the labels. I buy a lot of vintage as well, lots of which was made in the civilized part of the world by people who actually gave a shit. Anyways, the China thing was more of a facetious remark. I was implying more 'you get what you pay for'(which can be bullshit as well). I had a roommate who was always buying the best and newest computer stuff, but bought his clothes at a chain called the Bi-way(Think cheaper and crappier than Wal-mart). So yeah, it's about priorities. But I've always taken ZZTop's advice and always will. Feel free to get the opinion of any of the women who post on here.

Bi-Way? I don't think I like the name of this store. I wouldn't go there.

Four-dollar drawers. And if you can get a decent pair of shoes (and women ALWAYS check the shoes) for 50 bucks, I'll buy us each a pair when I come to Jew York...

That's a good observation... and frankly I'm surprised to read it here. But the knuckle-ding came through the use of a very powerful tool in cramped quarters. Shit happens.
I also just realized I shit the thread with an oversized picture of my fist of fury and cheap watch. If I can delete it I will.

Thx for fixing my post Loopnode.
If I had a Rolex, I'd keep it on my dresser until I was going to a wedding or something. I'd wear it and as the wedding party was leaving the church for the reception the limo carrying the father of the brides transmission linkage would fall apart and I would feel compelled to scoot under the car and effect a temporary fix permanently damaging my RENTED tux and Rolex.
I know myself. I can not be trusted with expensive watches and I have no business owning my own tux.

Everyone should have one really nice tux, especially if you do the formal thing alot, have high affluent friends or co=workers, then its definitely worth the investment.
But you're right if you are one to lose things that way then don't buy youself a Rolex.

Right now here in NYC they have a special promo: 2 suits for $125.00 good deal, but I dont know the quality. Nut I would say that these suits would be good enought for a job interview.

If you only need a suit for job interviews, and you're not going for a management position, you don't really need an expensive suit. You can't wear those cheap suits every day, though.

Get a few sensible shirts and pairs of pants from a place like Banana Republic and rotate them. Stick with neutral colours. I've had my best luck with blazers from vintage/second-hand stores because of my shape. At a cheap price, you can pay a tailor to adjust them to your needs. I got a beautiful Canali blazer for 100 bucks and had it fitted for another 40. I wear it with everything...

What I meant was that you can't interview for a management position with a cheap suit.
In a related matter, I bought a bitchin' suit from some Sikh tailors in Bangkok when i was lining in NY. The suit was $210 with shipping. I bought it unfitted and got it tailored here for about another $250. Still it's a great suit for the money. It's hand finished, has linen lining in the trousers, and it's made of worsted wool. The quality is unmistakable. If you have a suit that fits you to a 't', you can overnight it to them, they'll make a carbon copy or it, and mail you both suits back within about a week. +1 Sikh tailors.

I should probably design my own watches. My watches would look good and be reasonably priced, and aimed at men who like hot women. And if a gay person will buy the watch, then when he will put it on the watch will have just enough explosive in it to rip away the wrist from the rest of the arm.
So how will you plan to wear one of these "Panzer" watches on your dates with Tom Ford?
We will send the Broccoli from men in pain, I bet that he wouldnt mind.

What's with the Fossil obsession, Alex? If you want to stay in that price range, try a Diesel. It's a much hipper brand, and they tend to look more expensive than they are.

Fossil makes Diesel watches under license. And fuck these European brands. We should support American companies and not buy that eurotrash.

You're hopeless, Alex. Nevertheless, I'm still pulling for you to lose your virginity before you die. Good luck.

Seiko does make great stuff. I've got three of them, not cheap, they range from $150 up to a grand but they look great and run forever. About 25 yrs ago I bought a Seiko for $100 and it still runs beautifully, crystal never scratched and the thing is so efficient the batteries last 10 years.
They can go head to head with any Swiss made out there.

Get a few sensible shirts and pairs of pants from a place like Banana Republic and rotate them. Stick with neutral colours. I've had my best luck with blazers from vintage/second-hand stores because of my shape. At a cheap price, you can pay a tailor to adjust them to your needs. I got a beautiful Canali blazer for 100 bucks and had it fitted for another 40. I wear it with everything...
Very nice taste Tatty.

Depends on his field, if he sells hotdogs at a stand like you then he doesnt need a blazer now does he?

go like a mile and buy a used tag at tourneau, they're really not much more money than buying a new trashy one-look for the formula one with the rubber strap. the fossil shit might be worth 10 dollars at a yardsale down the road and you could have had a real watch for a few hundred bucks
i'm pretty sure my omega seamaster will outlast me-it's just a fucking monument of overengineering. plus, mine's orange and i actually get it wet all the time and it doesn't let moisture in like aquatimers and better-recognized 'dive' watches through the bezel if the screw's not absolutely perfectly set in.
for dressier-shit i broke down and bought a jaeger reverso because it's the best add-toy to play with and watch during tedious conference calls where there's an outside chance the internet could be too distracting and make me look like an idiot if one of the other idiots droning on decides to ask me something and i'm unreponsive.

There is no such thing as a real watch. Whatever sells for over $50 will show time fo at least 10 years.
yes, but it'll look classless for each of those years. fossil's probably not in business in a decade, i can't help you if you're intent on buying shit destined for a church rummage sale.
What class? I just want a good-looking watch that works.

My Fossils go from wrist to trash can. Before Fossil there were Seikos and before those Pulsars (Which were not cheap watches back in the day).
It would be a shame to subject a Tag or Breitling to what my watches go through. A waste of resources. And, I haven't had a water resistant watch fog on my in almost 20 yrs. regardless of cost or stem setting.
Treating ADD through complicated timepieces is an interesting concept though- someone should write a thesis on that. Years ago, when some people wore digital watches, I'd see guys racing to see how quickly they could start and stop the timers. Some times were in the hundredths of a second. I've never owned nor worn a digital watch but I do have a digital "tide watch" I keep in the boat slipped over a toggle switch on the console.

seriously, the standard tag with the rubber strap looks good and you'd have a real challenge destroying it. they should be under 500, it's sometimes worth it to acquire something that's crafted noticably-better even if it's at a small premium. same deal as choosing to buy a kimber instead of a taurus-over time it just makes you happier even if it's a bit of a luxury.

I see your point, and I understand it. It just isn't practical for me. I will spend money for quality where I can appreciate the differences, for the very reasons you mention. I'll spend up on sunglasses, electronics, tools, tackle, guns and hard use shoes and clothing. I noticed once I started buying better sunglasses I stopped losing and abusing them so maybe the same would be true of a watch but I'm loath to experiment. Imagine how much more fun it is to drop 500 bucks here.

Why should a watch make someone happy? Good looking quality watch that works is all that someone needs.

Gia would look great in that pink sweater, sure beats her turtleneck. And those black glasses would look great on her too, people might think that it is a somekind of limited edition designer frames.
