I would only take his or her advice with a grain of salt. That site is geared towards fashion and therefore the watches he or she critiques or advises on are usually geared towards trends of the season.
A quick scan of their articles proves my point. One article praises Rolex, the other abhors it. |

Interesting articles at times, however it's only one man or one sites opinion.

He doesn't know his arsehole from a winding crown.

I've never read him but having a monikor like Watchsnob I'd assume he's some sort of cartoon type character with "outrageous" opinions.
Good luck to him. We've all got to earn our shillings.

He's a complete plum- he also changes the spelling of his 'best friend's' name from Seamus to Sheamus in his articles.

Hey
On one of his articles on vintage timepieces, he said that he got a Hermes watch on ebay for a steal.
Obviously not the first brand that comes to mind when we think of vintage watches. More like a brand you think about when you see ladies handbags. |
