Awesome Watches
 

Ok, so its coming up to my birthday ( sunday infact) & I've decided i want to get a kickass watch/timepiece.

Im looking to spend around the $500-$700 mark.
Im aiming for something upmarket ie "not worn everyday" type of watch.

just wondering if anyone has done this and found any awesome deals/watches on the net or in stores locally.

typically i prefer metal band cos leather straps seem kinky, wierd & never last.

Cheers in Advance

With that sort of budget you might just be able to get a non-chronograph longines with a steel band. I have one as my daily wear watch it's great for what it cost.

Tissot are also ok and u will get a nice one within your budget. So much to choose from. Retail you should be able to negotiate at least 15% off...will be cheaper online but watch for fakes.

There is a great thread about this on PSB...

yeah im just flicking through the tissot website now...
i really like the T-race model but i loathe the rubber straps

Irish wristwatch say it three times fast

If you said 5000-7000 then it would be awesome watches..

Not being rude, or a smart ass but your budget gets you ok, or nice.

fair enough..... if i had 5g... wouldn't spend it on a watch....
not anyway baller spec enough

Really? You're paying for function not diamond encrusted bling. You can get something very nice for what he's looking to spend.

Its not like the extra 0's are going to tell the time any better then any other watch on the market.

Agreed on Tissot watches. I have one and love it. Really need to head into a shop and have a look. Always look different on the net.

just found a dealer for them in joondalup.... will go check them out tomorrow...

see if they are as pretty in real life as they are on screen

This one is mine. It's understated which I like.
