a leather band?

thats an old fart watch

You obviously missed my point of objection because the stereotype of "jewing" someone down and being a "cheap jew" must be so deeply entrenched in your mind as an obviously acceptable characterization that you would think I called you out on the haggling part of that statement.

What kind of person am I? Would be great to know from someone I have never met in person and only knows me from a few posts on a message board.

You're allowed to when its in your blood. :1orglaugh

Cant argue with facts dude, stop trying.

$10 says this thread is just here to boost an even bigger ego.

Woot.

Why else would anyone spend $12k on a shitty looking watch.

Spend that money on more exercise equipment, and a slew of penis enlargement gear.

That'll help you more in the long run.

What should I spend my money on? I have a huge penis and a hot body :)

tag is the way to go...not flashy, but classy and simple...

How to win friends and influence people . . .

that was a low blow Drew on Sleazy. :1orglaugh

You come across like a jewish Uncle Tom. Perpetuating that stereotype does nobody any good and it in fact makes my blood boil. I don't enjoy people thinking "dirty jew" when I tell them my religion because you think it's a fun innocent connotation to keep alive. Its origins and meaning and perception it leaves people with are very ugly.

KRL, trailer park trash don't appreciate the distinction that because you are part jewish you were only jokingly "jewing" someone down on price. Exhibit A quoted above.

same here. actually, i never wore a watch before either. i hatge watches. even if someone were to give me a $15K watch, i wouldn't wear it. i just can't stand the feeling around my wrist.

I'd get that watch in a heartbeat if you can get a discount on it. Blancpain is arguably one of the top three watchmakers in the world, along with Jaeger Le Coultre and Audemars Piguet.

Pick up a copy of Watch Time magazine and you'll see that every real collectors got one in their stash.

If you haven't found a place to get it yet, talk to MikeAI -- he's a watch guy and has good connections.

Nobody said "dirty jew" you are just pulling shit out of your ass.

I used to buy expensive watches, well not 10ks but like 4-500$...
But i always loose/forget them in parties hotels or whatever...

I was getting frustrated every time! Ok its not a big deal loosing 500$ but i cant imagine how mad id be loosing a 10k+ watch! lol...

Now i buy watches under 100$ and when i loose one i just laugh :)

Even when ill be super rich i wont buy 10k watches neither, id rather give that money out to some people that really needs it...

If i want to impress someone i have other ways than showing my money :P

I'd also suggest a day trip over to Aruba from Curacao if you want to wait til you get down there to buy. The prices are better.

One thing to keep in mind though -- I'm not sure how Canada works but in the states if you bring back a stainless steel watch instead of white gold or platinum you'll pay more in duties, has something to do with precious metals.

Shrugs, Im just trying to help him out here.

Plus, his I just bought this, I just did this, I just lost 60 of the 250 lbs I need to lose to survive past 60.... threads.

Are irritating.

Cheers my fellow jew. =)

A Blancpain watch :)

Ever accidentally hit your watch on a hard object?

OUCH!@# :helpme

Patek Philippe , only $350,000 :Graucho

haha yeah same here. I like cellphones because its network time and always right. Never have to set it

I brought 6 fake Rolex watches back from Bangkok but gave them all to friends as presents. I wear a cheap Casio G Shock for the sporty look.

The 3 best watchmakers in the world are Breguet (invented the wristwatch and tourbillion), Patek Philippe (the rolls-royce of watches) and a newer watch maker - Daniel Roth.

People may disagree with Daniel Roth, which is fine because the company is like 10 years old...but Patek and Breguet top the list, respecitvely. Patek has made the most complicated watches in the world - one timepiece had 33 complications, which later sold for 11 million USD.

Jew alert :1orglaugh

Sleazy...its definately a nice watch for any high end watch connaisseur. $12K is a fairly average price for a good Blanc. Had a friend who had an $36K one so the price can definatley get up there

I like my watch better, got it for like 45$ at Walmart.

That's smoking hot!

i'm good enough, smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me

what's the difference between being 'part jewish' and totally jewish?


please tell me, i'm really curious.

a jew fucks a non jew without a condom, and the results is a part jew

nice but too fancy for me, i wouldn't be able to tell the time

KRL said he has jewish blood in him and elswhere in another thread a month or two ago said he was a mix of different bloodlines. So I think it's a fair assumption that he is part jewish, and I don't know what difference there really is between part or whole nor does it really matter at all in this instance.

He is the one who said in response to me objecting to the reference "jewing someone down", said "You're allowed to when its in your blood."

OMG get over the semantics of each word on GFY. Half the time people don't even think while they're typing. Things just spool out from the keyboard.

Now let me enjoy my bagel. Thank you.

:1orglaugh

Sorry for being sensitive and have a nice rest of the day. Don't forget the lox. :)

Its very simple
When your mother is jew you are jew ..
In any other case you are not ..

Dude that is the dumbest shit I have read. It pretty much makes teh case to never buy a high end watch.

I dunno if KRL is Jewish but he's definitely a mensch. :winkwink:

summer holidays fun?

Sleazy, I have a Blancpain Aqualung, it is a great watch. I wear it when I fish, or do anything outdoors.

I say get it, especially if you have fallen in love!

:thumbsup

What about P. Diddy and his rapper buddies that pays over $1M for a Jacob the Jewelry's watch, do they have poor class:winkwink:

i'd say yes...but that's just me. i don't like yellow gold and diamonds on myself

I had a nice looking Jaeger Reverso and it WAS ALWAYS BROKEN. Had to send it to NY 3 times for repairs. Patek's are fragile, so are Blancpain. While not exclusive and Rolex's and Tags and Breitlings are way more durable and suited for daily wear. There is no such thing as "best." Maunual watches are a pain to keep wound. Automatics are great as long as you have a winding box if you have several watches and wear diff one each day.

DE-FI-NI-TE-LY

Why else would they buy such stuff?

Man you just brought up the best example ever.

Sleazy give in and get a nice Breitling like me :)

DH

You can get a Patek Philippe for that kind of money!! That is a watch !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and it wont look like rolex but it is the Rolls Royce of watchesi

i got a tag kirium on ebay, for a steal, brand new (yes its real, and i know so since i had to send it in to tag for a new battery).

might wanna watch out with tag tho, its 100$ for a new battery, from tag. AT least it is in my case. I was told by tag it needs replacing every year (have yet to see if its true).

so get a 50$ watch ;)

AC

Right Fucking on the money! P1mpdogg!!

sleazy has shit taste! gr8t reply P1MP!

get a fucking timex - it does the job
