I gave up on watches... I usta have a dope watch game... But i always lose em... =/
anyways I unno burberry kinda went out... At least down here maybe up north it's a diff story tho.... I'd needa see it tbh...
Last watch I had was a Luminox... Sht was pimp af... A bit more pricey tho... And i dive, so I need a watch that can take the pressure, yet still looks pimp..
Watch wise tho... It ain't gotta b a 'designer name' cuz they're are companies that make strictly watches that are sick with it...
A wallet would b a diff story but...
A watch is the dopest male accessory piece Imo.

Man, go Swiss or German. Don't drop the money on a furrberry cuz it looks dope
I have 2 watches I rock all the time. Both are automatics and high quality
1's my Tissot Visodate. My ol' lady picked it up for me for my last birthday. Mad classy and a good Swiss ETA movement on the inside. Ran her about $600
The other one is my Tag Heuer Aquaracer. Stainless steal and gold(plated). Similar Swiss movement, just adjusted a bit got Tag Heuer. Nice piece
I wouldn't go over 40-41mm range depending on your wrist size because you don't wanna have a piece of bulky metal on your arm that scream "LOOK AT ME IM A DOUCHEBAG"
Also, stay away from anything that's "the in" thing or just "cool". Find something with some heritage and has a somewhat timeless look to it. And possibly something that you can possibly get a return on down the line. Good luck, yo!

The Tag could run anywhere between $2500-$3300 but I got an incredibly great deal on it! It was brand new when I bought it but I found it by mistake. Went in to jeweler that my boss knows. I eyed a few watches with similar price tags and then the jeweler pulled out 4-5 watches that a lawyer sold/traded to him for a certain Rolex
So he was about to send it off as a write off and sold it to me for a bit more than half the price. I paid about $1800 for it. Plus I didn't pay direct. That shit builds good credit and I ain't really had that much to just drop at once. But in my opinion, well worth it.
I'm eyeballing my boss's Omega Seamaster for next year's piece. I'm pretty sure he'll give me a deal since he only rocks a Rolex and didn't pay full price on the Omega either.

Man, I stay rockin my pieces.. Everyday! And I do all the above. I don't ever worry about breaking them or messing them up. Especially a Yachtmaster. If you for real about owning one, my boss owns a Pearl faced Oyster Perpetual Datejust and he beats that thing to hell and back. No real scratches on it and since it has a sapphire glass, it's pretty much scratch resistant.
But watches are WELL worth the investment man. I've never used mine to pick up women or be flashy. I don't wear jewelry, have no tats or piercings but I do wear a watch. It's just completes my attire and is the business world, it's very complimentary to how I carry myself. Just my two cents on it.

you wear designer watches to play ball? why? i dont go to the clubs n shit. plus the clasp on yachtmasters break easily and it costs a few hundred dollars to get them fixed each time not to mention its got to be sent to a specialist or etc. you rocking watches liek that playing ball you crazy not even for the watch part but for the weight of the watch its harder to handle your wrist. but to each his own my dude but imo a watch is somehting like collecting things because thats where its gon end up in a watch collection you have. i actually have a few different watches. wear the cheapest one i have simply because its light, i dont vcare if it got stolen or broken etc.

dead @ $20 Walmart watches. Those fuckers don't even keep time right and break when you adjust the date. Save $200 and get something that isn't about as useful as Bomex skirts on a Civic

Damn y'all didn't have to put me down like that damn...
Yo but when I was in high school I had this watch, can't remember the name but my uncle gave it to me. It was a high end watch cause he said it cost 100 or so to get it fixed so he didn't care for it since he had another one. So I rocked that hoe like i was the shit until somebody asked wat time it Was and I didn't know. Lol talk about stunting my nigga

seriously though
first off brosign God Of War , I got a rolex for my 16th birthday and it stays in a safety deposit box
it is my key to rise out of poverty if I ever hit it
those shits are stupid to even own unless you have the kind of money to fix it if something does go wrong
word Hush invictas are dope I have 2 of them, one is a lower end one the other mid, cool watches for everyday shit
TYSON lmao do you man. but strikta is far from snoody my dog eats better than he does
i actually rock a walmart watch sometimes. brand is folio, cost me 150 on sale had broke mine that night and needed one for a dinner. ended up liking it so kept it.
bulova is nice, good for semi-important events
end of the day don't spend to much, if you wear that shit out a lot someone is just gonna rob you

05-26-2013, 10:14 PM
imo spending that much on a watch is a waste. u can get some cool shit with a wide leather band and sleek design for 15 bucks in chinatown or at a garage sale somewhere (dunno if u live in city or burbs). bottom line is that money turns hoes on momentarily but if you've got less than $5,000 in your checking acc. it's pointless.

Please don't buy an invicta! Chinese movement in a "Swiss" case. Which isn't Swiss either. Man, if you want a good watch at a decent price go with Hamilton or Tissot. You'll be more than happy. Trust brosef.
