Titanium the metal of future. Light weight and durable.

Save your money so you can get a BMW. So many watches are all about status not better design, best example is a Rolex.

Wow, I like that watch. I'm all for simple, tasteful, inexpensive watches.

Thanks, it's not an either or situation, and I already did the X5 thing, twice....

btw- a bmw isa status over design purchase as well

Sure you pay extra for a BMW but I stll think you are getting a better design.
No other SUV drives like my X5. Much better than a Chevy.

On the other hand a Rolex does not keep as good time as most Quartz watches. The Rolex is all about Status and not much else. If I had to get a over priced watch would probally go with a Breitling.

Thanks for all of your commetns, any thoughts on my original question?

So you draw the line at making over priced purchases with watches? but with cars, it's completely justified? I see

So much for this thread.... I'll make a few calls ...

I would think that a steel watch is better for every day.

The titatum watch I listed is a much better every day watch.

I would think that a Gold watch is more of a dress-up dinner watch.

Still think that you get more than status with a BMW, Gresch does your Chevy drive as nice?

I would probably stay away from 18K gold for an "everyday" watch, however, I guess it depends on how you define "everyday" and how fussy you are. Do you mean get up in the morning, take a shower, put your watch on, and off you go to work? Or do you mean that you truely wear it everyday - like when you go to the beach, golfing, health club, coaching the kids LL team, playing frisbee with the dog, etc?

I have an 18K gold and stainless watch that I use for the above, and it has collected some scratches. However, to me it is not that big of a deal, so it doesn't bother me.

Gresch even though you traded your BMW for a Chevy you must understand that the BMW offer more than status?

LOL at overpriced breitlings.. haha.. the rec league is not playing today.. IMO.. breitlings are relatively cheap across the line.. even their highline stuff...
