What do you do?

wow I must be the only one who doesn't get it when it comes to watches.
I admit I admire the look of GMT, Daytonna or Carrera Automatic Chrono but not at those prices! It goes against every investment instinct in my body to drop more than $300 on any luxury item, for me lady diff. story.

A woman once said "you think that way and yet you drive
such a facny car"? screeeeeeechhh..... WHOA! LADY!!!
"I drive a sports car not a fancy car. If I wanted one of those fancy cars to impress the ladies I would have gone for stupid four door Merc or BMW. There are very few sports cars today (allot of sporty looking cars for sure) but I have one of the few cars made for DRIVERS."
she looked at me like I was somekind of pyscho. She hit a nerve...

my fake chrono Breitling($50) that lasted me two years and got about 140 comments "ooooo wow nice watch" (I told every last one of them it was fake) succumbed to my mistreatment. I'm hesistantly considering this $500+ Tag F1. I'd rather find a nice second hand model if I can avoid spending that for someting somewhat stylish and durable. But somehow I like the idea of wearing a watch everyone thinks is worth thousands(the knock off not the Tag) but costs less than my Nike Shox. Those guys who make those nice watches are laughing all the way to the bank. Does it really cost Rolex and Tag Heur thousands of dollars to make those watches? How much have internal parts changed in the last 80 years? How much of a mark up does a tempermental Swiss watch really merit? Its almost analagous to Porsche cars.
