You can get a tourbillon in China for $15? images/smilies/lol.gif

Labcoatguy · November 9th, 2007, 3:56 AM

You tell me.... I'm not enough of an expert to identify a tourbillon movement.

Jacobfox · November 9th, 2007, 4:13 AM

that's a negatory

its rad.

Shawn · November 9th, 2007, 4:33 AM

Yup, I didn't mean Labcoat's was a tourbillon.

Anyway... I wonder what brand they tried to rip off. The hands look something like Breguet's.

i know...my post was of a similar humorous tone. you can't get a tourbi for less than 10 grand. and it's really actually ineffective in comparison to a modern movement.

Shawn · November 9th, 2007, 5:16 AM

Well, a Quartz watch would be best at keeping time. images/smilies/lol.gif

You CAN get a chinese tourbillon for under a grand. (not mine)

^ Rose gold isn't exactly to my tastes but that's a nice looking watch. I was looking at a Navitimer, blue on blue, a few years ago but I went for the Seamaster since I figured my only nice watch should be a sportier one.

I'm glad this thread is bumped though. My new watch should be here in just under a month. Too excited... images/smilies/w00t.gif

Jacobfox · November 10th, 2007, 2:26 AM

Nice, but breitlings are typically a little too garish for my tastes.

bartboy9891 · November 10th, 2007, 2:34 AM

^ You guys spend a lot of money on watches. As much as I like watches, if I had a few grand laying around I wouldn't go spend it on one.

Jacobfox · November 10th, 2007, 3:45 AM

I don't spend shit on watches. I have my nike watch which I won in a bet and my Omega which was a gift.

Same. I've been using my cellphone since my last watch broke. Then I got a new watch for Christmas *cough*'05*cough*, which I haven't worn because it's too big and needs a link taken out. I'm lazy.

Oh lol, nevermind in that case. The last watch I had was a Fossil that I got as a gift in 8th grade, I kept that for over 4 years.

Shawn · November 10th, 2007, 5:30 AM

I think people who buy 'fine' watches are either so rich they don't care, or their watch hobbyists. I'm personally the latter... some people mod their car for a few grand, I get a new watch for a few grand.

I can understand why, I would love to own a Breitling Aeromarine or Breitling Bentley 6.75 or one of many Zeniths and so on.
It just looks/feels/sounds so unnecessary ESPECIALLY at my age. Thinking about it, all of those watches I listed is worth more than our Grand Am is images/smilies/lol.gif

I just noticed that most of you guys are on the younger side, I wouldn't expect people in that age range to own such high priced watches.

'CruiserMan · November 10th, 2007, 8:52 AM

The trouble with having one nice watch as your only watch is that I worry too much about breaking it when I go riding with my mates, or working in the yard... I think I need a cheap digital or something to ride and work in.

cvrefugee · November 10th, 2007, 8:54 AM

I have a Tag Heuer but I never wear it. Gives me a rash I think.
