There's a different watch for every person. Leave the Rolex lovers alone
I don't have one, I never plan to have one, they aren't to my taste, but I will respect others decision to choose one and not judge them for it.... Most of the time, unless they are a Jerk. |

Its not about judging, its about ugly. The only rollie I like is the new sky dweller. But for that money, I'd buy the Pan 1950 8 day ceramic.

Hop on to WatchUSeek and you'll get the exact opposite consensus. And PAMs get a lot of hate too, which I understand having owned a replica to try on the size. Both of those you mentioned have quite nice movements, though. So, I guess, horologically, I can't blame you

For the record, I own a Rolex and BMW(and Corvette) but no polo or ping stuff. And I dont group people based on what they wear or drive. You on the other demonstrate you're shallow enough to do so. PS-driving a BMW doesnt make you 'original'. Thinking it does, makes you even shallower than first imagined. |

No. I have never heard anyone saying an M3 specifically is cliche'. You just made a judgement about BMW owners twice in the above, so how do you not stereotype? It's funny you've mentioned a Corvette, because that's another cliche' about Rolly owners. Lol. How about some pleated Dockers too boot?
Btw, The argument was never about originality but, rather how a watch like a Rolly is more cliche' than others. Go research the brand that is the number one graduation gift and then get back to me. Rolexes are ubiquitous. Last edited by 48Laws; 06-22-2012 at 08:38 AM.. |

Normally wearing my IWC Inge 3233 as a daily, I can't help myself wearing the Polaris or ROO RC too as daily 'beaters'.... Atm the ROO, but tbh the Polaris is more special and an eycatcher as well.
Crappy pic: A better pic of the Polaris I wore yesterday. Such a cutie: Cheers Robin |

The standard Capeland, like the one I posted, lists for $4350 (the flyback is like $5500 and up). A guy at Jared quoted me $3600 without even asking for a discount, but I paid much (much ((much)) less.
