What Watch Would You Compare To Your Watch ?
When im out and about i like to watch spot as i guess you all do but i like to think of the equivalent car for the watch.
E.g. A Rolex GMT Master II YG as a ferrari 458 Spyder or a SLS ///AMG Mercades. look at your favourite watch and and put what you think the equivilant car for it would be. This is baised on looks and price |

My fav car at the moment is the 458 and Im planning on buying the GMT YG so I like your comparo or maybe the RG RC as I think AP are more aligned to Ferrari and PP to RR and Rolex to Porsche/Merc.

When comparing the watch to its car equivalent I dont think the watch should cost more than the car - this aint Glengarry Glenross ABC, Mike, ABC.

Funny I was thinking about this the other day too...
I think my PP annual calendar = an old Bentley L&S Lange 1 = Aston Martin DB9 AP ROO = Porsche 991 C2S Panerai/Rolex/IWC = ML 63 AMG SUV Of course there is room at the top for these 3 brands of watches, just as there's more room for better cars. |

"My watch cost more than your car!"
And Bateman's "Don't touch the watch" are my two fav watch lines from film. |

I'm not a big fan of cars, they are incomparable to watches imo.
