I've been in love with these Prada watches. Gorgeous.

there's a man who designs watches for reasonable prices (about $150) b/c it's all crystal pave. does anyone know who does that. i can't remember his name. i visited his site and then cleaned my computer *feeling stupid*

Wow! It seems like j12, cartier and franck muller are really HOT! Does anyone here happen to like chaumet, piaget, vacheron, IWC, philippe charriol...etc??

Hot and hot...

The question was "what is your dream watch". I love Piaget and IWC and all, but I'd love to have a Cartier Tank Americaine (because I love the perfect proportions) in white gold, but it's out of my price range. Even if I could afford it in gold, I'd prefer it in steel because I prefer the look of steel compared to gold. Or a Jaeger-LeCoultre Gran Sport maybe.

My current watch is a Nomos, and I love it; it's classic and very, very discreet. Few people recognize it, and if they do it's because they're watch buffs...

Unique taste of rectangular watches you have. Mind posting a picture of your nomos? I would very much like to see what its like.

Why of course one that makes sure I'm never late. Or better yet one that can control the space-time continuum.


But lacking that I’d love a Hermes Kelly watch – or whatever the ones are called that look like little padlocks hanging off the strap.

thank you for the answer gingerale, that's about what i thought. i guess it will be my next watch purchase. can't wait!

I agree with bohemian! Prada made watches seem desirable without diamonds and glitz.

Well my first choice is a Rolex Stainless Steel Daytona... but seeing as to there is about a $5000 mark-up right now, my second choice is a Panerai... 40mm chrono if I can find it.

Or maybe the limited edition Cartier Pasha with the chrono.

I love the look of the IWC Big Pilot watch.. if they made a slightly smaller version I'd definitely want it!

I love rectangular watches, but this is round... The colours look very flashy on the pic, it's more discreet irl:

Or anything else by Breguet.

Also the Sohne watch that kanzaki poste.

And from the ones that I may actually afford some day.

my dream watch is the watch my grandpa wore all his life. I don't know what happened to it when he died or who got it but its gone now. That makes me really sad. I wish I had it.

I have two dream watches:

One I have; Vintage Omega Seamaster de-ville, solid gold with perl face. Hand wind up motion.

The other, I want ;

Thanks for the pic tott!

Your right its a discreet watch. It does somewhat resemble a classic patek philippe. It caught my interest and ive done a lookup on it. Its called "Nomos Orion - Blue Hands" and its a german made precision good watch. Nice!

 

[kanzaki]

Nice choice on the IWC.

It may not be my dream watch but i really like this IWC and i wanna share this pic. Its very sporty and made of titanium.

 

[softgrey]

this is my dream watch
the movado museum watch...
i used to see it hanging in the museum of modern art in nyc as i was growing up...
and i always loved it...
my parents got it for me for my high school graduation...
so i guess my dream came true...
