Guilty pleasures... you know you've got them!

:lol: as Biggie said: if you don't know, now you know :p

Also have had a few Breitlings on the list for a while, they carry a lot of wrist presence and have good history. Mikey, I don't believe it's a necessary evil in some industries, but it definitely doesn't hurt your cause when you rub elbows with the people who own the people who manage the people who cut your pay checks. I have worked in some of those industries and personally never felt the need to buy really expensive watches to show my net worth or act like I'm on the "same level" as someone. I just happened to have grown a passion for watches and have sparked up a lot of conversations with clients and strangers about them. I still happily play in the little boy watch world though because I'd rather do things with disposable income like you know, fund a friend's mission work in Thailand than prove to someone I can drop a small car value on my wrist.

I'm in the same boat as far as the passion for them goes. I work in law enforcement, a civil servant, so lord knows I'm not trying to impress anyone with my attire. I'm either in tac pants and a t-shirt or in a suit where I'm guaranteed to be out dressed by high paid attorneys. I like how these watches look on my wrist and how they make me feel about myself. They haven't sparked any real conversations, except for the Tissot when a coworker who is into jewelry mentioned it. I'm not after attention, I'm just at that point where I don't care to spend a little coin to get something that makes me happy.
