does buying the watch and putting yourself in debt mean that youre a watch freak? lol



With all due respect that doesnt mean "watch freak" it means " I cant afford this watch". This obssesion of ours should only be funded with our "extra money". It takes longer to achieve our desires, but by saving for the watches we want we
will appreciate the accomplishment. ....just the way I work.

Heck, if I used the credit card I would have 4 times the watches I have now!!



Bronco I am with you. watches are one of those extra luxruies in life that should be enjoyed. however any way you think of it (unless you are filthy rich) dropping 5-10k on a watch even though you have saved up to buy it hurts a little. as a young guy (i am 31) there are times that i probably should be putting more into my RRSP's or paying down my mortgage. but i can help it im hooke on this obsession. i told my wife the other day..."better i spend the money on watches than hookers and blow". She totally agreed.

Good question.

1. Chronomat Longitude (slate grey)
2. Navitimer Montbrillant Datora (black)
3. Breitling Black Steel Super Avenger
4. Superocean Heritage Chronograph 125th Anniversary
5. A nice vintage gold dress Breitling (not decided which, but when I see it I will know)

1. Omega Speedmaster Patch limited edition 50th Anniversary (cause its as old as me)
2. Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar Skeleton
3. Bell & Ross BR 01 94 (I know but I like the look)
4. 18ct gold Patek Philippe Annual Calendar

Interesting. I'm being frown upon for shopping for a 'expensive' watch. Guess i shouldn't tell them my photography equipment is worth a couple times what the watches i'm looking at cost... :nana:

Stainless steel allergy Steve? I'm guessing that Avenger Seawolf would be in Titanium and not stainless steel, correct? :D Just kidding. Nice list.
