I do a lot you are correct well let's face it old guys buy watches. This one actually has a youthful side with the industrial look to me anyway. It doesn't matter now though because it's too small. It looked well over 40mm to me but it's even smaller than most PP's at 37mm.

But Bregeuets are timeless. Honestly, those watches always look good.

I need a Breguet and a Patek to make my collection even remotely complete.

^ Isn't that interesting. I thought the same thing.

I had to look twice to see that it wasn't a SS Sub.

The design is so generic that it likely cannot be copyrighted.

Good spot though. Need a job??

I am happy with what I have right now, if I was in the market for a new watch I would consider this. I just want to enjoy what I have for now,

PP 5712 in Steel, I like this because its a nice watch and unlike a Rolex its not a cliche here.

I've always felt that way about Rolex Generic looking. My tastes are always way out there anyway.

Mo that Nautilus looks good would prefer on a strap not a bracelet but cool.


Dana that Breguet is still on the table honestly it looks good. After wearing my Mille Miglia around a bit the 39mm might not be so small but it's skinnier as well I'm worried I won't want to wear it.


Here's a Rolex that doesn't look like a typical Rolex. I saw it on 24/7 today. Great color strap on that beast.

+1 but I don't think La Tradition is one of the timeless pieces. This on the other hand...

That's the type I couldn't wear. My dad maybe. Grandpa maybe. Not me.

A Lange's the same way. That one posted a few pages ago is extremely pretty. 60k pretty I don't think so.
