    A luxury watch is a status symbol, the more people that know the make and that it's expensive the better.

        2 years I've had mine now. It likes to be worn though, sulks (stops) if I don't wear it for a day or two.

        I do love it.

                Sorry Russell, I have to agree with SimonMac.

                The watch doesn't make the man.... any more than the car, the house, the boat or any other tulip!

                How sad to be so materialistic

                      If you want the perception that everyone things you are successful you should just but a very good knock off and just pretend its real as most people will think its as fake as you are anyway. I however get a better feeling knowing I have a high quality precision movement that is the very best, whether it costs £5k or £5.
