What is the funniest:weirdest comment you’ve heard about our PP obsession?

What’s the funniest or weirdest comments. to our PP obsession...
Thought this be fun...clearly I’m at the gym.



I told the kid I should sell one of my watches and buy myself a FurRari... her response. “daddy, why do u need a furarri, you are kidding right? Don’t sell any watches” - she gets upset even when I joke.

My buddy is trying to get into watches...lives in a big azz mansion in Darian CT. ..he’s having a tough time getting on a list. I want to tell him “Money can’t buy love”. But I didn’t, instead I told him to work at the relationship by buying other pieces, I want to be an empowering friend lol

At lunch with friends...”what kind of normal person has that type of money strapped to their wrist”. I respond... “this is why I wear a Patek. You can’t tell it’s $100k”

Thinking about my kid getting older and getting married...I’m wondering which watch I buy the husband lol

Thread is meant to be light hearted...

I told my sister by mistake that my RG Nautilus which she thinks I paid £20K for, couldn't even tell I actually paid £10K more for it, is now worth quadruple that. Let's just say the violent response I got had me quickly changing my will.

Another 5712 will make for a very beautiful couple... of watches that is... w your daughter's 5711...

Other than that? My mother questioned my judgement when she saw the 5711. Why? Lack of YG... No complaint about the platinum Calatrava...

I just had soba at shibamata. Heading to Shibuya shortly.

There is a Japan edition GS springdrive SBGA401 which is quite nice. Did you see it?

Also saw a 5270p at Isetan Shinjuku.

That's funny, my wife would totally do this. I walk up to her with phone in hand, her eyes roll because she knows I'm about to ask her about a watch I am eyeballing. "Another watch??"

I leave out the pricetag nowadays. People almost faint when they find out what the current value for a sports Patek is.

You sell a watch or two and you can afford a Ferrari. Yep.

One of the gentleman saying people that weaning AP couldn't afford wearing a Patek Philippe......

That the saddest weirdest comment that I heard.....
