A more helpful guide to the OP - googled for you because I was worried about reference to gucci because I'd steer clear of Gucci - main luxury brands for watches that hold their value are brands like Rolex, Cartier, Breitling, Patek Philippe, Cartier, Omega etc

I have an Ebel, which I love. Can't find a pic of the exact model, but it's a cross between several of these.

Buy from jewellery quarter in Birmingham.

probably because i buy cheap watches for next, like the quirky ones but they usually break quickly

If I were to buy an expensive watch I would not buy a fashion brand but a proper watch if that makes sense.

Have had a gucci watch before though but it was not flashy at all.

I would like a cartier.

I have a Reverso, which I love - totally classic, beautiful design, goes with everything.

Am wearing an Hermès Cape Cod Double Tour today - not an exciting mechanism or anything, but I love the sexy look of the double strap

I'm not sure that you would sea. I've had mine for about 9 years so far, and never done the slightest bit of damage to it.

I have this Seiko - I love having the day & the date on it. (It's not delicate or pretty, but neither are my wrists & hands, so it fits just fine )

Quattrocento · 05/07/2008 21:31

Nah, you can't break a watch.

CantSleepWontSleep · 05/07/2008 22:29

Found a better pic of the Ebel. Mine is like this except that it doesn't have the date on it.

I want a Cartier tank. But will have to want on for a while yet.

I had a Gucci watch but lost it about 9 months ago and it's either in our house somewhere or lost forever. But I had gone off it anyway tbh.
