VTC....The Affordable watch thread

Hey Chris, do you have any U Boat watches?

 

+1 - I do like those!!! Very manly looking, I can't do the square watches

 

Chris, this is 285ferrari's girlfriend. Where the hell are all the women's watches????

 

Keep "em coming...I will find something I like sooner or later and will snatch it up!!!!

 

Over Christmas parties, dinners, etc. I noticed quite a few of my clients have them, and my cousin from Italy who is a huge watch buff/collector (3 Daytonas, Andemars piaget, etc.) says that it is going to be his next watch...

Love the Tissot LeLocle Automatic Chronograph.....our holiday bonuses come in Feb. 15 (bean counters!!!) so you may be hearing from me...

 

Very nice---I'll have her take a look, this time using her own username...

 

C'mon man!!!!!!!!
I can barely keep up with the Coach handbags, and now this. Are you trying to get me completely broke?!
Don't you have a heart?

 

I am a gold girl. I do Love the Fendi and diamonds!!! I also like the square gold ESQ with the diamonds!!! - That one is hot!

 

I looked! Does this mean you'll buy ?????? LOL

 

Anything for you sweetie---as soon as Chris posts some of the $9.99 watches--I am all over it..

 

Aww - thanks babe! I have a better chance @ buying a 355, and beating your ass in the cleanest car contest!

 

That Oris in post 41 is my favorite watch. I have many other watches, including some higher end models, but the Oris is my day to day favorite. I'm wearing it now.

I like this thread Chris, keep it up! Do you have an Oris Carlos Coste? A Tissot T-Touch? Hamilton XL Navy GMT? Ball Engineer Master II?

Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself......

 

Chris (VTC), can you clear up some general questions I have in regards to the watch indusrty? ...

Can any watch dealer carry Omega, Breitling, M&B, etc? This question isn't geared specifically towards you, I was just wondering what the rules for carrying high end watches are? Lots of the watch places I go to, specializing in higher end watches, all have signs posted that "only an authorized dealer can sell real XXXXX." Basically, the high end dealers are implying that if you buy anywhere else, its a fake. Or, at best, there is no warranty. What exactly does it take to be an "authorized dealer". Is that just a euphamism meaning that you can't do discount pricing?

But on the flipside, I see Omegas, Brietlings, etc sold just about everywhere, even Costco, on the Net, etc....

Chris, do you do discounts on Rolex/Omega/etc?
