I love my Omega - the only watch ever on the moon, the first watch in space (worn by an American) and the current Bond watch. Class with history.

I have a Relex my uncle bought back in the 80's in NYC from one of thosevdudes selling them on the sidewalk.

I have a pretty nice Bulova that was my grandfather's retirement gift back in 1975.

Rolex pre Daytona chronograph with a black face. You'll have to increase your budget by a bit, though.

Have an omega dive watch, stainless steel orange bezel. With tax it was 6,300.00. I like it a lot. It is the only extravagant thing I own.

Patel is NOT in the same "price category" as Rolex. Patek is a MUCH better watch and more expensive. Not even in the same league.




Well....?

The intro Patek is probably in the ballpark of a Green Sub or Newest GMT or SeaDweller. Within a grand or so?

Close enough for horseshoes.

like the Omega's I wouldn't mind spending more than what I listed I just wouldn't want to drop a shite ton on a watch when I've been wanting to buy a custom Kimber 1911...so if the watches cost got up to that I'd spend it on the pistol



Buy a timex and get a Wilson Combat 1911.

I just bought a flex watch. I saw it in the show "the profit". Each type supports a certain cause, it cost $50... Thanks for playing.

Have you checked out Movado's? I love their watches and they would be in your price range.

I wear my Rolex everywhere. Do you think anyone will really notice what watch you are wearing? Really???

If it's a dress up I might wear my 5 diamond bracelets too.
