There are a bunch on the list of watches I like and wouldn't buy, and there are a ton that have been mentioned that I would LOVE to own, the 5712 being one of them. I also would not buy a Hublot, but kinda really like them.

I would not buy the Sky Moon because of the ridiculously large price tag. I don't care how much money I have, I don't see myself ever spending over a mil on a watch.

I love this watch, but I'm not sure I would get it either. I could change my mind though. The UN Freak Diavolo

And I don't think I would get an all Red AP Offshore, although I really love it.

Elaborate please hence the title of the thread.
LOL ok sorry about that, shoulve elaborated

it was an inside joke to mannnu81

I had a Tag Heuer Carrera but sold it to him.


Honestly, I'd probably pick up another Tag in the future. After I pay off the Pam 305 I just bought on plastic.

A watch I like but wouldn't own is the Hublot. There are a few other brands out there that fall in the same category of cool watch, ETA based movement, inflated price tag. I agree with Jox on this one.

Then there are those watches that I just dont 'understand' - the AP ROO is one of them. Stunning robust watch but I just don't see it as being realy worthy of it's pricetag. I do like the AP Royal Oak but the offshore just takes it to Guido mode and loses about 80% of its class. Just my 2c.

That's the beauty of an eta movement. It's bulletproof. You just don't fit in with the movement snobs

I tried on some Bell & Ross Heritage watches and just decided that they weren't for me.

Hernando the All RED AP is tacky, you should look at getting the Singapore F1 edition it is better looking.
