What time do you wear?


What watch, if any, graces your wrist? Does time matter? You know: time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. Either way.

Back in the early 2000's I got the "watch bug" and started buying all kinds. Sold off most of them. Now I am down to very few. Just selling a Breitling chrono that has been an expensive headache and got an Omega Speedmaster to replace it. But hard times economics has forced me to appreciate cheaper ones(not to mention cheaper Hi Fi) . I even get a kick out of the cheap Vostok Russians, fully jeweled, waterproof, and absolutely no concern about cosmetics of the caliber inside. But they run great and are cheaper than dirt!
I love the design and execution of Audemars Piguet watches, but as someone who sells them, I have to say that I can't think of another watch in its price range or below it that has a worse record for reliability. Most that we sell are back for one reason or another within the first year. I know that sounds unbelievable, but it is true. I'm a sure there are exceptions.
Hi String,
Yes, they have watches that cost more than a Bentley, but they also have watches that are far more reasonable, and they are also quite reliable, and beautiful. They are the world's second oldest brand, with Vacheron Constantin being first.
