That's a fine watch! I'm glad someone is collecting them. (I don't have the money to collect something I would never wear...)

Never say never. I don't really have an opinion on what people do with their watches after they buy them.

Well, I'm referring to the ones in precious metal. If I'm to buy gold/platinum, I'd rather buy something I'd wear, and baguettes are too small for me to read. I would love to collect women's watches - they're beatiful - but it's simply beyond my means.
