What time is it? Watches and horology

I think anyone that has a nearly 10 year old watch that they don't even like and is still covered in cellophane. They probably bought it as an investment. He wanted to hold on to it much longer term but needs the money for something much more sensible. Not good timing for selling so he's trying to limit his losses. If he asked me to recommend a watch for a couple of grand to wear regularly I'd say have a look at something like an Oris in the sales. I hate the idea of investment watches. I dislike this model anyway but all that bollocks that often goes with buying a Rolex even puts me off the couple of models I do like.
