Good watch brands

Lol! I appreciate your honestly. I don’t think I’ve ever been called a **** quite so eloquently before.

Fucking hell, if i'd have known you were going to take it that well, i'd have cut straight to the chase...

Haha,one of the best posts ive ever read! Bravo

Good advice too,@SWP's back ;-)

My wife pissed herself laughing at it, especially the Elton John bit. I even copied and pasted it to a good mate of mine. He’s worth about 5x what I am (though not necessarily as above board) and he’s from New Moston. He loved the Breitling and crublue basically described him in one. He also liked it.

Not sure if youve seen the discounted sites before . I wouldn’t go into a bricks and mortar shop to buy a Tag .

Out of interest, why/how are sites like that and Chrono24 able to sell these Tags so cheaply compared to authorised dealers?

About 2005 I bought a Corum Bubble Watch for $800 from the US, they were about £800 over here and the exchange rate was 2 to 1 in favour. There's the ladies equivalent of the model I bought on eBay for £1450 so I've effectively made a grand. It's probably not for the OP with his budget but Corum have a large price range, they are a little quirky generally but good fun Swiss watches to wear and as a small investment. As always, keep the box, get them serviced and look after them.

So I am planning to buy a watch within a 10k budget. Looked at Patek Philippe and they are expensive as fuck.

Any suggestions?

Unless you're set on traditional prestige dress watches, I'd very much consider a smart watch.

If the OP does want to go down this route (I know he doesn’t as he’s already bought a Carrera) I can recommend this beaut for any golfers in here:

I put batteries in watches at work. I'm always amazed when someone brings in a really expensive watch thinking i'll do it for 3 quid.

The main dealers are generally a cartel . You can go in and attempt to knock them down but they’ll try and make you feel cheap . The grey dealers are usually much better because they won’t have the overheads etc .
There’s also the Tag shop at Cheshire Oaks but that’s definitely hit and miss with what is in there .

That's brilliant.

Ultimately though,its your taste and its your choice,take advice as ever in life.....but go with your gut and get what you like.
