Luxury Watches Are More Than Fashionable by ajaxblogger

To me, there’s nothing like designer watches. Some people get fanatic about clothes, some about shoes, and other about cars, but me, I love a fine watch. I can tell a Patek Philippe watch from a Panerai Watch with the greatest degree of accuracy.

But I feel I have to justify my love of fine watches to most people who don’t understand why you’d pay so much for a watch. They simply don’t understand what it’s like to have that kind of luxury wrapped around your wrist. Many feel that in today’s world where we have the time on our cell phones, ipods, computers and other gadgets, the need for a watch is over.

The common consensus today is that it’s almost overkill to have all those time-telling devices on you.
But unlike these gadgets and gizmos, watches are timeless.

I got my first watch from my grandfather for my thirteenth birthday. He got it when was 19, from his father after the war, and now he was handing it down to me. I remember feeling like an adult for the first time having this beautiful timepiece on my arm. And you just don’t get that kind of nostalgia with a cell phone or iPod. So in short, designer watches are more than just a fashion statement or a way to show off your status.

A fine watch can be a timeless, meaningful heirloom that can be passed on from generation to generation.
