        I buy my watches at Walmart

        They'll take links out for free

        Then you get a rotisserie chicken and you're good to go

          I just couldn't bring myself to spend that kind of money on a watch unless it was an investment and then I'd never wear it. Though I'd never buy them, those MB&F pieces are amazing to look at it.

          That was the best part about pirates of Caribbean 5 movie, the horologist jokes.

            Pretty soon buying a watch will be like buying a typewriter - impossible. Kids that have had a cell phone since age 7, I really don't see them as big watch-buyers as adults.

                  The same hamburgers who talk shit about buying expensive watches are the same guys who go and spend 10 grand on some gay little ring for their wife.

                          sorry if I hurt your feelings, didn't mean to offend. i've noticed there are a lot of posers out there who act like bigshots because they buy a BMW or nice watch when they can barely afford it. there are always plenty of people out there who are richer than you. the super rich are focused on getting richer and live frugally in many ways. that is the mindset that lead them to riches in the first place. billionaire warren buffet eats mcdonalds breakfast every morning. there are some people who legitimately like watches or have the money to afford it, spend your money how you like. for most, it's just a status symbol. while you watch dorks are playing dressup with accessories, i'm stacking franklins.

                              Honestly I believe cheapness is a form of greed.

                              Warren Buffett has all that money and he won't even treat himself to a decent breakfast?

                                  good point, he's an idiot for eating such shit food when he can afford a personal chef. more indicative of his bad diet. just talking shit, don't feel strongly about watches either way, think it's just dumb personally.
