Agree on the resale though, you take a hit on most of their models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a Rolex sports watch, but the prices are getting absurd. 8 minutes ago, mistakey said: real talk tho i still want a g shock I have one they’re great. It was like 70 bucks and it’s bombproof, legit can’t break the thing. Bought one for my oldest too and he likes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MossyMoss Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I got a Rolex GMT Batman for my day to day, heard they are going to re release it but with the jubilee chain. Weird enough it looks good on the Pepsi but IMO doesn't fit the Batman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GHARMON9 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Are you guys really spending 6k on watches? Help me understand the value in spending that type of cash on watches. I have to Fossils (150$ and one for 60$) and a Michael Kors (for 125$) Most importantly what are yalls professions?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyre jewelry for men, an investment (if you buy the right stuff), something that can last decades and be passed down to your kids. I mean, using your logic why even spend a couple hundred on a watch when you can get a Timex for $30? Or better yet, just use your phone. 4 hours ago, GHARMON9 said: Most importantly what are yalls professions?? I’m an RN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally dont see the vaule so I'm asking. I might be missing something. I saw a video of an old man who bought a watch for like 200 in the 60s and now its worth 15k or similar vaule.

Yeah Rolex’s, Patek’s, etc can appreciate in value, sometime substantially. As far as the value, many are made from precious metals (gold, platinum) or have diamonds in them. Also it takes a lot of skilled labor to make these things. I mean, they’re just a bunch of gears and levers that track time with absurd accuracy. Rolex for example is +2/-2 seconds per day. That’s a pretty incredible engineering feat imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
