I'm still trying to figure that one out. Perhaps porn broker means something else down under.

It is not going to appreciate, I know that it is a F1 model but nothing special and not a movement its a quartz. I am OK with that since I do not want to deal with tune ups on it. I doubt it will never be worth much it is looks nice and I like it so there is that.

I also have this $88 in 1971 Heuer purchased with a coupon off a Viceroy Cigarette pack. My grandfather bought one for me when I was a wee child to save and give to me as a HS Graduation present.

Today its worth over $4K.

My boss gave me a Rolex when I made VP of his company a lifetime ago. I never wear it. I prefer to wear the Heuer.

I also have a Schumacher Red Omega that I never wear. Maybe once or twice a year.

I think the Rolex is in the safe it is a very low end one, it was never a big deal to me. Maybe because it was a gift. A friend of mine was obsessed with it and saved up to buy one of his own, his prized possession.

I get the whole, Rolex is a benchmark thing, I just never really was into that scene.




That Autavia is gorgeous! Tag reintroduced the Autavia a couple of year ago and I have lusted after them.
