My watch broke down since February this year. Since then, I have been surviving on my mobile phone as my watch, alarm, calendar, etc. Miraculously, my mobile phone is as good as my watch except it is in my pocket and not on my wrist. I guess I have started to get used to living without a watch. I started to depend less on my watch for time, I started to discover alternative timekeepers like using my laptop clock and mobile phone. I became more resourceful.
At the same time, I have been shopping around for a new watch. One watch is always better and nicer than the other. I ended up not deciding which one to buy. I am eyeing on so many watches and among them are Tissot and Rolex watches.
While doing window shopping, I also surfed on the net looking for watches and consumer feedback. One website that I discovered was Grays & Sons. They sell watches – brand new and pre-owned, and fine estate jewelry. Grays & Sons carries only top of the range products such as Audemars Piguet, Bvlgari, Cartier, Corum, Jaegar LeCoutre, Patek Philippe and Frank Muller. These watches are so nice but they are very expensive as well.
Realistically, these brands are beyond my reach, financially. I have to continue looking for a more reasonably priced watch for myself.

a fren of mine actually mentioned to me before, that those super duper expensive watches such as a Frank Muller, it is investment you can sell it later for a much higher price… of course provided the fact you take good care of it!
Athena: the more I look, the more I fall in ove with those watches that cost more than my house. It remains a dream :)
