I can only speak to my situation....my wife happens to be a realtor in a vey exclusive county(Essex) here in the states...that was recently listed by Forbes mag. as the most expensive county to reside....in the entire U.S.A. and when acquiring new listings....a prospective home seller will much more likely to list their 1,000,000 dollar home with an agent driving a G500 than an agent driving a hyundai (no offense to hynundai drivers). We also received a 40% tax rightoff due to Uncle Sams crazy tax laws (not too bad for a 90,000 dollar truck).psymetry said:OK, so i spent £24,000 on my Evo Lancer and it nearly cleared me out...and I still feel like a bum compared to most of these rides.
Bentley GT, Porche, Merc G500 etc..... I gotta get another job!
If you guys are earning this much, why the rep watches? I can understand if you earn enough for one or the other, but what would everyone choose?
Rep watch and top ride....or, cheap ride and gen watch. (those that can afford both shouldn't be in this community) :shock:
first, i like your car. i have never wanted a japanese car, ever! now that they make something fast and rwd and or awd they have my attention. i want a evo and a sti. now about the watches and the money. i stated in my post with my car the wheels and tires cost as much as a gen tt sub. they were $7000.00. can i afford a gen? absolutly. i have that car, a truck i drive to work, a 4000 sq ft house on a 5 acre estate and part ownership of a private airport ajoining the grounds. the trouble is i want all of these things and not 1 sub. i want all of these things and 25 different watches that cost anywhere from $4250.00 to $30,000.00 for gen and a new set of 20's for my wifes car. lol, now do you understand? lol!psymetry said:OK, so i spent £24,000 on my Evo Lancer and it nearly cleared me out...and I still feel like a bum compared to most of these rides.

exactly, lol, i want it all and i want it now. lmfao!psymetry said:Totally
I'm in the same boat. No point having a box full of gens but living in a box with nothing else.
There are more important things than watches. I asked the question to get some responses and it's worked.
A watch collection tops off the house, cars and good living. Unless you are blessed, I doubt if anyone has all this and a box of gens.

I think that we all love watches... be it gen or rep but, when it comes down to it....very few will recognize you're watch but, almost everyone will recognize the car that you drive
