    Do people still wear wristwatches? How quaint

    There's a clock on my phone, there's a clock on my computer screen, there's a clock on the office wall, there's a clock on the church over the road, there's a clock on the microwave, there's a clock over the bar in the pub; and if I'm walking in the countryside, I can estimate the time as precisely as I need from the position of the sun. I can't think of a single reason for having a wristwatch.

        The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

        But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          Another vote for Breitling.

          They have recently put their prices up, but you can haggle for a discount. I got 10% off my watch. Also, if you can be bothered, some shops may have an older model on sale at a big discount.

          Also consider vintage Rolexes and Omegas from the '60s. Spend a few K and it can actually go up in value.

            Jewellery, plus boasting of wealth. The question here is how to sport a piece of bling while pretending to yourself that it is "tasteful".

            FWIW of all the watches that I have worn, only one attracted positive interest from women, and that was a Mickey Mouse watch.

              Indeed. There's a lot of silly mugs on Cuk that are the ad-man's and marketeer's wet dreams because they're so gullible.
              Hard Brexit now!

                  That's because you are ugly.
