I think i saw a woman on the tube today wearing

only a mere £90K watch...

or this

which is a fake

Picfail for me

Probably a Michael Kors...

that said Patek?

That's nuts if real. Wonder what she was doing underground with all the peasants...

i think its a fake doing more research...

Amended post slightly

I now remember the bottom Tourbillon

I've got a fake pp. it looks the tits, but needs winding every 6 hours

Does PP put Swiss Made at the bottom just in case people do't know where Geneva (Geneve) is?

And GMT, is that in case the owner forgets what the little dial does

I dislike writing on dials

I think it's a nostalgia thing from back when companies were required to put origin of manufacture for tariff reasons.

Not sure how true it is, but apparently the Germans rebranded was was a destination of inferior products into one conveying quality.

I assume the Swiss did the same.

Handsome 5 back on rizt

I wanna b a rolex.

I like that but I’m not exactly sure why!

I like the heartbeat scale, and I'm not a fan of the Daytona - that looks better IMO. (Edit: I think it might be because of the red accents?)

Good grief. Is that real?!

Any Longines fans? Selling this if someone is interested. Price is 750 gbp
