I paid a few hundred dollars for a Seiko Kinetic about 8 years ago. I wear it every day and it still looks and runs great. I've repaired it once for around $60.
During the same time frame, I'd normally go through about 5-10 $40 Timex's, so the Seiko was a good investment for me!

I bought a fake for my wife in Beijing for $5. It still works almost a year later!
Gotta love a fauxlex!

thats my daily watch! haha i love that thing. its last me about 2years and still going with no probs.
i decided not to buy the watch from my friend. i dont know i think 1 rolex is enough for me, 2 would be... a little to much.

I agree, I have had one of those, that I wear constantly, for about 10 years. Paid about $400 for it. That is about the max I would pay for a watch, and only then , if I thought i would get great service out of it. A Rolex is a status symbol, I would rather invest in something else.

Thats the watch I have, I love it. I have had it for about 2 years now and it still works perfect, I like that it has tritium in it so it will glow longer than I am alive.
