What watch are you wearing?

I just need your inputs on this one gents. Thinking of getting it as a "from me to me" belated bday gift

Found it at www.mattarend.co.za

They have quite a nice collection of watches at decent prices

the feedback on this earlier was that it looks nice, but on closer inspection the workmanship ain't up to scratch.

 

can someone compare this to something i understand, like cars/bikes. they look like fancy watches but the price isn't that high

ie. is it a titan/silverback/chinarello  or hyundai/GWM

I don't know them at all, but based on looks and price I would not buy them. It feels a bit like those Makro/Game bikes that are dressed up to look fancy but won't last. I would much rather go for something like a Tissot. Not sure what their prices are these days though.

Rather spend your money on something like a Citizen, Orient, Seiko, Etc..

 

 

*Edit: Tissot as mentioned above..

Ive been on the hunt for Tudor sub... I find them more appealing that their Rolex cousins...

 

Although I know someone with a Rolex Air King which im after... need to sell a bit more coffee first!

Luckily he contributes to that and buys a lot of your coffee :) :)
