Some women like handbags and shoes ... I like watches. Give me a limitless credit card and I'd probably buy up a whole Swatch shop. I do think when someone buys a watch, it reflects their personality ... what type of watch do you wear? My current one has a cyan coloured face with white strap - nice for sunny days.

Eee Bobbi - I knew you were an Apple lady as it has been previously mentioned. Might consider. x

How's weather today? Rained overnight here but no th/lightning.
A bit rain overnight but that’s it , nothing more than that ,lovely today as well but had to go shopping as we let stuff deplete before going on hols so I have been on a replenishment exercise ;0)
For really occasions I have an Omega dress watch. Rock crystal glass, diamonds around the bezel and diamonds and sapphires on the white gold strap (where it meets the watch face). It is a tiny little thing with the winder on the back of the watch. A wedding present from my husband, I have never see anything quite like it.
For everyday I wear a square, faced Tissot, yellow metal, with a bracelet strap.
Should have read really special occasions
Best watch i ever had was a Seiko Chronograph - bought for a pittance back in the 70s from a Belfast Jewellers. A small bomb had just blown half his shop to smithereens, but a lot of his stock was undamaged. I had been taking photographs of the explosion (and the crowd - hoping the culprit had returned to admire his work), and i offered to help him clean up. He pit it down as bomb damage on his insurance bit the only thing wrong with it was the timer didn't return to zero. Had that watch for some years and can't recall what happened to it.
By the way, Haz, don't know why you posted a video to go along with your thread, but, given the subject matter, surely this one is more apt:-))

Swatch? How totally naff!
;-)

If I had the money, I'd buy one (or possibly several) of the Patek Philippe Grand Complications range.

This would do me for day-to-day wear but I'd probably buy something else for special occasions ;-)

Love you too, Choux x
If I was ever flush enough to be able to afford one of these desirable timepieces the first thing I'd buy would be something else.
Is envy on the market place? Work harder Douglas. Thousands on benefits are relying on you. :-)
I work just as hard as I need to, learned that from a policeman.
My dad gave me a gold Tissot for my 21st (which wasn't today or yesterday). I only wear it on special occasions; rest of the time I depend on my mobile for the time.

I bet you learned what the time was from him as well!
