Yeah, only if it did not say "TAG" above Heuer.

Nice seventies look.

Porsche-O-Phile 05-24-2008 04:39 AM

Cool, yes. But also ugly.

I imagine it's ungodly expensive as well. . .

Wayne,
This watch is H U G E in realife. I strongly recommend that you go try one on & see if you really wantto attract that much attention...:cool:

If you want to see huge, take a look at the new Breitling Bentley series. Picked one of those up last time on the road and its simply massive. Nice looking but need to go to the gym to work up the muscles in the left arm to wear it.

I like it...

But it probably cost more than I paid for my 944:D

Those are great watches, if you can find one you should get it. The look cool, I tried to buy one last year and couldn't find any. So, I got the other model instead and really like it.

I strongly dislike the latest trend toward large square watches. Looks like a metrosexual thing.

Or a retro thing.

Why not spring for the real thing?

I love the Monaco, but it is a large watch. Might be problematic to wear day to day.

You callin' Steve McQueen a metrosexual? Say it isn't so!

I guess it's been a trend for awhile. Maybe before the term "metrosexual" was coined.

That's a good looking watch Wayne and probably not a bad investment.

I buy counterfiets off some guy that comes into the club where i work for $30 a pop.

I get about a year out of each one.

BeyGon 05-24-2008 08:32 AM

I have never understood the reason for buying fake trash

m21sniper 05-24-2008 08:36 AM

Well i suspect that to a lot of people it's because for $30 bucks you can buy a watch that to 99% of people looks 'real' upon cursory examination. I buy them because they look good and they're cheap. When the finish wears i simply toss the old one, and buy a new one for $30. If i lose one, or one gets scratched or whatever, i don't care, i just get a new one.

I myself have never understood why people will pay $5k for a watch.

So you are trying to impress someone with the fake.

m21sniper 05-24-2008 08:55 AM

I think you should re-read my post cuz.

Only a total assclown would try to impress someone with a watch.

So why not buy a good Seiko instead, they look good. And not expensive.
