yep

The watch industry is the same as with ridiculously expensive women's purses. They appeal to the customer's inner drive to status. Many derive their perceived status through owning expensive items solely because they are expensive. -as long as it is widely known that the items are expensive.

Funny that so many are smart enough to make the money to buy... but still out of touch enough to be drawn in.

By the way Rolex is officially a "not for profit" company.

- Why would they claim that? :rolleyes:

Ha! That's funny.

Teaching the children about the big hand and the little hand... - but not in a Joe Biden shower kind of way, of course.

Here's a rare look at Rolex GMT internals (Aug 23, 2022). Most of the detail & finishing work on the movement will only ever be seen by a watch maker. They really are well built and much better than anything made in Asia IMO. Yes they're expensive but like a lot of things in life "you get what you pay for".

Gullible brainwashed dimwit.

Nailed it!

I've been following Marshal(sp?) for a couple months. He makes a good video.

More than $1,000,000 for a watch? - Truly ridiculous!

I do not understand the world these people live in.

The girls can also play this game! - Women's designer bags!

How does "dropping $60k on a hand bag" sound? SmileWavy

If you like the idea of re purposing older stuff and working with leather this should be interesting.

Grand Seiko enters the chat.

Yup...

She’s actually Canadian,but I like her videos.

Yes, excellent build/tech and all that but are they desirable?

Her accent fooled me. Strange mash up... lol ;)

They are desirable to watch people, especially their limited editions and Spring Drive models. I have a couple HAQ GS'.

This ^ is the one investment watch to own.

It is almost completely unreadable and has tulips!

And I don't have to tell people the value of tulips.

Oh wait, maybe that was tulip bulbs. - Damn it!

Bingo! But then, a Rolex wearer would tell us that we just don't get it. He'd be right...
