How much...
...would you spend...
on a watch? Is it something you just use to tell you what time it is? is it a statement about who you are, or is it simply a fashion icon, or a way of flashing cash you may/may not have?

Re: How much...
Nothing.
I don't wear a watch, ever, or any other kind of jewellery (except for in my piercings  )

Pete doesn't wear a watch either. We have our mobiles if we want to know what the time is

Re: How much...
I paid too much for my watch according to the missus, even though it was < half price!
http://www.wris****chreview.com/2006...uced-35105000/ Thinking of changing it soon but not sure what to get, I don't cultivate money trees alas, but I do like a nice watch!! |

Re: How much...
I brought a TAG in new york a couple of years ago. It was from a big horrible man who approached us. I felt obliged as a toursit to buy this watch or eat the pavment.
As to say it cost me 20 dollars and when i got home, i got a mate to check it out. It was a fake! Not that i didint know that already but i thought i might get lucky and it was stolen in a robbery or something! |
