The Watch Thread - Part 4

[info_guy]

What do you guys think about smart watches and is it a threat to the mechanical and luxury watch market? I.e. will owning a smart watch make you not get a mechanical watch like a Tag or Rolex or Orient or Seagull?

Definitely not. Smart watches are at best an alternative to mobile phones.

There's a reason why mechanical watches survived e evolution of time, and it will continue to do so forever.

Omg lol

Smart watches wont last, and its still new in the industry, still alot of room for improvement. In addition to that, electronics being electronics dont last forever, give it a few years and its a gonner.

true, a passing fad.

BTW, why would you need a watch to tell you to check your phone? I don't see the logic.

It's kind of trouble to need to keep smsing, phone call, arranging to let potential buyers view, and need to do verification, etc. prefer fuss free selling to shops if the difference is just a few hundred dollars...

Don't know about u guys but I cannot carry off yellow gold watches. Don't know if it's my age and concerned of the "uncle" stigma associated with it or it's too eye catchy and I'm shy or I don't have the the rich man air to carry it or it just looks out of fashion or what.....

Never try never know. When ur time to hit "uncle" comes, a swatch is not gona change the fact. On a more serious note, rose gold maybe less gaudy (a "softer" bling) if thats your concern?

2nd hand shops quote v low one. i believe u will rather sell online esp now its so convenient.
