Any Suggestions for my new watch? Oris, Breitling or Rolex?

[browneyedgirl]

My first pick I think will be the Breitling, the Rolex is just too over exposed and their are too many fakes. The Oris very well made great style but not as horny as the Breitling. Anyone own one? or have any input?

What about Cartier? I think its more exclusive than the ones you mentioned.

i love Breitling, the quality is second to none. those who know buy Breitling, those who only show buy rolex. that being said i've never really seen too many women's models of Breitling that i thought were nice. but i am not a woman so it's your taste that would count.

gbm has a good point, especially for womens styles cartier is quite nice.

It's impossible not to have a hard on w/ Rolex, Cartier, Omega, etc.
But I like to be a rebel. I choose Breitling. It has that "duferense".
Just my 2 cents.

How much would you like to spend?

What type of movement you are looking for?

What are you going to use the watch for, daily wear Etc.

What type of band and clasp do you like?

what type of Back do wish to have?

All these questions help determine price range and style?

If you are looking for a classy affordable watch how about Movado. If your looking for Sporty affordable ladies Omega's are top shelf.

Ifyou would like to buy a watch that can not be compared to any other watch and all other manufactures wish they could be like,go with Patek Philippe.You will never want to wear another brand of watch after you have put one on your wrist. Prices on these can get a little steep 3k - 200k plus.

How about Vacheron Constantin? I wish I could afford one......

According to their website they were "Founded in 1755, the world’s oldest Manufacture in continuous activity since its creation is celebrating its 250th anniversary."

If you are looking for a women's watch Chopard Happy Diamonds is a good choice. Or less expensive Techno Marine Diamond Bezel looks good.

Timex or Quartz are really reliable

True story.......

Many many many years ago I was at summer camp in the Adirondacks and went scuba diving off the dock. Found a wind up Timex on the bottom, and wore it for years....they do "keep on ticking". Now all I use are Triathalons of some sort. Much rather buy stocks and such with my spare dollars..... But hey...to each his or her own....

I hear what your saying tiger, but buying a fancy-dancy watch is all about wanting to not needing to.

I dunno about fancy watches for me....I seem to have this "problem" Give me 1/2 hour or less with any watch on and I'll walk by something...wall, pole, stair railing, parked car, etc.... and my arm will smoke it resulting in a nice big scuff mark on my watch. Happens all the friggen time. It's like unless I got a $10 watch on my arms a magnet for whacking things (not my dik) and wrecking my nice new watch.

I hear what you're saying......

As far as watches and sunglasses...I figure cheap is good...lose 'em or break 'em....c'est la vie......

[El Tigre]

Just to avoid any confusion.....

I walk upright...sort of....and I can eat a banana, and scratch my nuts at the same time...
If I really concentrate......

Judging by your ability to spell and use proper grammar you neither "know" or can afford to show. I own 3 Rolex watches and buy them for the outstanding workmanship and excellent value. Your average dumbass on the street can not tell a real Rolex from a Bangkok special edition. Breitling is a well made watch but I found them a little too bulky on my arm and have found them to be even bulkier on a lady's arm.

You might want to consider some of the more delicate Rolex lines like the Cellini; although I found nothing as practical and good looking as an Oyster Perpetual Datejust

I seem to have this "problem" Give me 1/2 hour or less with any watch on and I'll walk by something...wall, pole, stair railing, parked car, etc.... and my arm will smoke it resulting in a nice big scuff mark on my watch.

I do the exact same thing except that with the crystal on the Rolex I end up with a big dent in the wall or whatever I walk into. Whatever ends up on the watch gets wiped on my shirt!

the knockoff rolex in bkk come in three or four qualities. the top ones can fool some jewelers,I've seen $100 ones would fool most all but pros
