Brietling Orbiter are nice - I don't own one myself because I'm not at Getbigger millionaire status yet but if I had the money, I'd have one of those babies hands down.

I have had Tag Heuer for a few years now and it's my favorite of every watch I've ever had or have.

How does it feel knowing that the watch he's buying would run you 3-4 months salary?

Golf is not a sport, why would they sponsor a non-athlete ???

I'm sorry I think a Rolex is garbage. There are way nicer watches for that price. Personally I am a way bigger fan of Movado over Rolex. Rolex is all about the name. Shit that's like buying a Viper. way better cars for the money, but there is always that douchebag with the Rolex...

I don't think you could wear a movado to everything, but with a nice suit or blazer, I think it makes a great accesory. I wear a Elgin for my everyday watch, it isn't as nice as I would like, but the wife bought it for fathers day for me. It does the job and I get compliments on it all day at work. It does its job, and they told me that if anything happens to it for the first 4 years they will replace it, scratches included on my band and crystal, the wife did good for staying under a 1,000.

Nice, yeah that is pretty close to what the wife paid for mine. I have an old Bolava (sp.) from my grandfather that is from the early 1930's. Need to get a new band put on it. The elgin is good for me, I still wear it out to mow the lawn then clean it up and wear it to work. It's a nice everyday wear.
