Post subject: | Maurice Lacroix Croneo MP6318, opinions please. |
Hello I have been looking for a new watch now for 18 months, I saw a Breitling in Dubai that I really liked and have since regretted not buying it. I have not seen a wach that has really grabbed my attention since. The other day I saw a Maurice Lacroix Croneo MP6318 that made me feel the same way but I dont know much about them. What I would really like is an unbiased opinion on this watch, I am willing to buy the watch because I like it and would be happy wearing it which to me matters the most but what i dont really want to do is spend £1500 on a watch if it is overpriced and really not worth it for the quality. Thank you in advance Lee |

I always felt neutral about ML, they have some nice watches but they are stretching a bit with the pricing I think. If something there really catches your eye, go for it. But buy to keep, as there is virtually no second hand market for them and no following that I know of. I do really like the display backs on many of their watches, shows off the nicely finished movements on their chronos. |

If you like it buy it for you. If you think that maybe one day you'll want to change it, don't bother - it will be worthless resale. To me, I can't get past the name - too much money for the name and not enough for the watch. |

Thanks for your replies. As I said in my first post I do like the watch and am willing to buy it because of that. What I am not willing to do is pay over the odds for a watch that I dont know that much about. I cant say that I will never want to change the watch so I never really think about the resale value. I like the look of the watch now but who is to say that I will in 2 years time. Thanks again Lee |

Pure coincidence - I just had a look at my mate's MP6318 - it's absolutely stunning. I can't believe he's had it sitting in a box for 5 years unworn (he's not a big watch fan) beacuse if I had a watch like that I'd wear it with pride and joy. Do as the rest of the guys say - if you can afford it and you really like it a lot and would get joy from wearing it (for instance like I do from my Breitling Chronospace like no other of my 20 watches) then go for it. |

Like Altair, im neutral on ML. If you like the look, you should take a look at Longines (master collection) and Baume & Mercier (classima series). They have a lot of models that look a lot like the ML in question at very reasonable prices. |
