1. You posted a thread about "fine" watches, then bitched when people gave their definition of "fine."

2. You say you can't afford an extremely fine watch, yet you have how many helmets ranging from 3-600 each? And how many watches that cost a few hundred each? You could easily afford a fine watch if you really wanted to. Just stating the obvious.

I don't think that all my helmets/watches put together will make a $30-50,000 watch. That's what a "fine" watch with all of those stones would cost! Besides,my point is that I would not trade everything I own just to have one watch that can be considered good enough for you connoisseurs of fine jewelery and watches. I would rather have the $800 Richard and co with all of it's diamonds than a plain jane Breitling or Omega. I guess that we are different in that way.

BTW the only time I ever even used the word "fine" was in the title. Heck,I never even proposed that the watch I posted was "fine" or even that Movados were "fine". I didn't "bitch" until they kept ragging on my personal property. GM posted pics of his house,what if I had replied,"what a shit hole!" or "you can do WAY better than that!"? How about the guy that posted a pic of his wife and kid? Should I have pointed out that his wife could stand to loose a few pounds or that his kid looks bound for the Special Olympics?

Anyway,I'm really,really not angry,you guys should know by now that I like to argue points with these guys just for kicks and it doesn't really mean anything to me. In the hoods where I hang out,I constantly get complimented on my Movados/watches and all of my jewelery for that matter. I like the way it looks and I'm not trying to begin a family heirloom so...it's all good baby!
