I'm not sure how I feel about the investment yet. It was a lot of money to spend, but the way I look at it, the watch will last me forever, and it's a Tag -- so I can always resell it. It's a model CAC1111.BA0850 Formula 1 SS, chronograph.

Does anyone else have a nice watch? If so, what do you think about the investment and post pics!

It's definitely not an investment. An investment is something that gains you interest or profit. You will get neither from this watch as it will only depreciate in your lifetime.

But it's a nice watch. Enjoy. I wish I had 8 notes to drop on a watch..

Seems silly to spend so much on such a clunky looking watch... Though I will admit I am jealous.

I wear a Fossil. In my defense, its from their titanium line, very light. I've had it for 6 or 7 years, replaced the battery once, lost it once for about a week. I wouldn't replace it for the world. Keeps time, comfortable, and only cost me about $200 all that time ago. I suppose I've bonded with it.

Screw the haters. I too have a Fossil titanium. I bought it when I was 17, so I've had it about 5 years now. I haven't worn it since I was a senior in high school though. Fossil watches are juvenile and white trashy, in my opinion.

I own a Fossil (titanium) Citizen, Seiko (very nice watch - highly recommend this brand), Omega (antique) and now a Tag.

I think it is an investment, because unlike cars, a watch can resell for the same value or slightly less after years of use.

I have a black tag heuer aquaracer. I love having a nice watch. I also have a movado. Ball till you fall, nigga. A tag watch is always worth something. I wear 3 grand on my fucking wrists with my platinum bracelet on the other. Who else can say that? I have that kind of money to piss away. Bitches know this. But you get no dough bitch.

I would take this fashion statement into consideration, except for the fact that you don't know a damn thing about Swiss engineering or good watches. The Tag is the best watch you can buy, except for an overpriced Rolex studded with diamonds. I challenge you then, pot head, to find a better watch for the price.

I'm not a fan of Tag Heuer but I do appreciate swiss watches. I usually wear an Omega Seamaster 300m automatic, very well made and not flashy, every once in a while it gets noticed.

Watches aren't very different from other luxury items, so it doesn't seem appropriate to think of them as an investment. You wear a nice watch for the sake of appearance, and for some it may mean new friends and business contacts. Admittedly, Americans are somewhat vain, it's our culture.

Omega is a great brand, and I like them better than Tag actually. I just can't afford an Omega. I got a great deal on the Tag I just bought, and only paid around $480 for it. I couldn't pass it up. Maybe if I stumble across a good deal on an Omega, one will be in my future as well.

He didn't challenge the fancy engineering. Sure it may still be ticking long after you die, or whatever mechanical excuse you may have for buying it, but that shit is plain ugly. You could have at least blown close to $500 on a better looking TAG-Heuer.

I have to agree, I don't like the styling. For $500 I would have gone with a nice Seiko or Citizen, you can pick from essentially their entire line, not just purchase the particular model that's on sale. Japanese quartz movements are very good.

Also, here's a photo of my Omega:

Doesn't matter, I don't consider jewelry an investment in the traditional sense. I'm sure it would still sell for around $2,000 regardless.

As long as they're serviced according to schedule, watches generally don't depreciate in value after they're considered used unless new models or new technologies are introduced.

The Seiko Coutura is a very nice watch.

The watch is still fucking ugly. The rolex submariner(?) is much nicer, imo.

To me this all seems a little try hard. It seems how the watch looks doesn't come into the equation, it's the brand and how much it cost.

Still, I hope the OP earns alot, he just bought a $500 corporate logo.

Really? I've never heard of those brands before. I like the way my watch looks as well, and I can always resell it in a year or two for the same price as what I just paid for it.

And no shit the Rolex Submariner is much nicer. It also costs $5,000 more than my watch.

Edit- I see now why I haven't heard of GP before. It's because they have watches that cost up to $125,000. Wow, that's pretty ridiculous. I think I will save my money, you dumb fuck.

My grammar is fine, it's not the end of the world if I don't use perfect punctuation.

It got the fuckin' point across didn't it?

And once more Tag may have nice watched but you seem to think they are the creme de la creme of watches. In the world of high end watches a $500 Tag is an insult.

Stop thinking you are the sickest cunt ever 'cause you have an inexpensive overpriced bottom level, below entry tag that still looks like shit. I think they just made that model to get a tax break or for charity or something.

BLOCK - BUSTER.

Fuck i am glad there is still people like you on totse.

While every cheap faggot is talking about how some PR guy in Switzerland says its a great watch, you chime on in with some fucking style.

I bet you whatever your willing to spend on a watch, that this casio will get mad props from the people, while the only people caring about your fancy man watches are other faggots with more money than style.

Thats a real bet.

Also, that Casio is ugly as sin. Prepare to never get pussy again if you wear that in public. Well, that wouldn't be a problem for you anyway.

I've had a seiko for 7 years. I replaced the crystal face once, and I've replaced the battery twice, I think. The only complaint I have is that I messed up the chronograph so that it doesn't reset to 0. I haven't bothered taking it anywhere to get this fixed. I should probably do that at some point. Thinking that I've worn it almost every day for the past 7 years is pretty interesting.

That seiko coutura looks really nice. It might be time for me to upgrade, but I don't know if I want to part with the one I have now.

My current watch is scraped to shit and needs replacing. At least it's a cheap one though.

Instead of bragging how much you can spend on a watch (wow!) how about you find a watch that combines function and economy, and use your money to buy undervalued assets?

If you know how much your watch cost you probably can't afford it.

Tag Heuers are tacky and overpriced, IMHO. Sell it before it loses value and buy something with class. You definitely won't want to wear that shit in five years.
