What time do you wear?

I was in Boston a few days ago ....went to a watch shop to buy IWC big pilot....came out with the big pilot and roger dubuis much more watch. my christmas gift to me for the next few years....mehran

I feel so bad about doing this, but I actually made my first Home Shopping Network purchase. I know, I know. I'm so ashamed. I bought these for Christmas:

Kessaris, his AND hers automatic watch set. Self winding mechanical movement. Made in China. I couldn't help myself. They look so similar to my favorite watch - a Breguet Marine.

I figure for the price - what's to lose. They certainly feel a bit cheap, but it is a metal case. We'll see how long they last before falling apart, or the crystal falling out, or the mechanism seizing up, or ...

But they do look nice.

Enjoy,
Bob

PS - My other watch is a Zenith El Primero.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Submariner. Owned it for 15 years and it has never kept time as well as a $50.00 Timex.

No automatic watch will.

In particular a rolex with beveled gears, that movement always runs fast, its near impossible to get them adjusted right.
