One of my watches cost more than £100 and it makes me feel like Zsa Zsa Gabor.

i was looking at one for £300 about 10yr ago. i never bought it and i still regret i!!!

OP, I love everything this post chooses to be. :)

Get money, Sly. If you could sell one of your watches for almost 5.5 million why wouldn't you?

Dang I think the most expensive I’ve seen listed on auction was one for $1.5 million - thank god it wasn’t a Richard Mille.

I’m no horologist but have been getting more into watches and their craftsmanship. I treated myself to a vintage Longines watch from the early 70s for my 30th. I’d like a vintage DolceVita with a leather strap for my next watch.

I do love the Cartier Tank Française.

i used to dream of the art deco tiny gemstone bracelet watches! i find myself gravitating towards larger faces for favourites because i can't read the little ones even w/my contacts and reading glasses!

it doesn't feel that much of a vintage characteristic. the large face feels way more modern.

although if my dream watch ever appeared i'd somehow found £500 even though i probably wouldn't be able to read it. it's the only time i've ever fallen in love with a watch! it was 10+ years ago and i don't think the brand even makes their own watches anymore. they have a watch *shop* but don't make their own anymore

I have a TAG i got as a graduation present that i break out when i want to feel fancy. That's about it.

I do. I like my timexs but it is harder and harder to find replacement bands and such. :(
