Default RE: Post Pictures of Your Watches


ORIGINAL: Longhair

When I was searching for my first watch (the Unknown Citizen) I was very picky and after a good year of searching, that one caught my eye. The Tissot PRC100 Titanium has some weight to it, but about 1/2 of the Citizen Calibre 8700.

Last night I was told I have a "watch fetish" because it seems that I've been looking at a lot of watches lately. It started shortly after this thread [:@]
If you like the 8700, does that mean that you also appreciate the 2100? Talk about a chunk of stainless! It also comes in Ti, but what fun is that?

I have also been accused of being a fetishist (but never a horologist [X(]) because I have gone through close to 100 watches in the last 11-12 years. Only the few that I really appreciate hang around for more than a handful of months.

LB, I would never call that a fake. It is true of the similarity to the Luminor, but still it is its own animal. To be safe, however, I would keep it out of view of the Paneristi [:-]
