    You can take pride in your appearance without wearing obviously branded stuff mate...

    Again, you’re quoting me on something I’ve not said. That’s not cool.

    Unbranded clothes are cool. Nothing wrong with that, I’ve got a couple of tops like that.

    I’m talking about fake gear which is a totally different conversation altogether.

    I agree ... on your 'obviously' fake gear point ...

    ...but I'd never buy a Rolex, even if I was a millionaire...

    Have you seen how a Rolex increases in value. Not sure making a really sound investment choice compensates for anything?

    Also the broadband company will have public liability insurance...

    @Sucky you got a public liability certificate? <whistle>

    I’ve been seriously looking at one of these. Not sure why anyone would say that this is garish or ostentatious. These retail around £6k and the earlier (pre 2021 models) are going for £18-20k. Not only does it look good, the return on investment is probably better than any other purchase you could make.

    I just don't like wearing a watch, hate the feel of it.

    As I said earlier - fair point and each to their own - but if I had that much disposable income, personally I'd use it for nice holidays ...

    Good luck and join the queue in getting one at its 'face value'.

    But yeah, beautiful. Not a Batman or a Pepsi or any of that ****.

    I do love the Hulk though, great colour.


    I'm an Omega chap though. But you don't get that massive increase in 'value' by any means, they are just a classic watch.

    I’m an Omega fan too. It was the Seamaster aqua that got me looking and that’s when I came across the Rolex equivalent. I’m not into the diamond cut bezel or the coloured scales around the outside of most watches, I just want something that is understated and can be worn with anything.
    I was talking to sales guy in a Rolex shop in Vegas, and was shocked to hear around the potential waiting lists for new models, which is why I mentioned the pre 2021 values to Fosse. I did speak to a guy in the watch-finder store in Bluewater a few weeks ago, who did say that some 2025 models can be easier to get than is commonly thought. How true that is, I don’t know as I’m certainly no expert.
    Whatever I end up with is going to be a retirement present to myself. After spending years contributing to my company share save scheme, I want to get something that I can appreciate.

    That's nice.

    I personally like the GMT style, Seiko is a nice brand with some decent prices while good QT. Got one as a gift from my fiancé for my 30th, I love it.
