Is Luxury Watch is a must have item for the Gent now a day ?

After looking at tuapaoxian watches, I think you might be right.

Ah, at least you understand my point..... $20k - $30k watches is anytime anyday. Not considered luxury.

Aiya bro...one could almost says for everything that expensive/luxury or not is relative . By "general perception" (and by my standard too), $20k-$30k watches are definitely luxury lor.

Afterall, how many tuapaoxian do we see here, and how many % of watch lovers here could say $20k-$30k watches is anytime anyday...

20-30k definitely not anytime anyway for many people I think.

By my definition anything above 5K is luxury (especially if it has an EXX movement). No disrespect to the movement manufacturer - just my two cents worth.

Luxury all depend on individual. If u earn more than $150k/annual. $40k is not much. Just like the government saying $200-$400k for 99years or even less for resale lease for HDB is affordable. I personally think any watch more than $15k is luxuary. If u keep dewelling on others definition of luxury, u end up like me heading to the mountain to have peace with yrself. Hahaha

[Iceheller]

Eta but correct me of I am wrong.

Yup, and in my case, 'luxury' is conditional, too. Well said. Different strokes for different folks.

Yah, car + maintenance, every year lose $50k

[mirmubarak]

Not a must! Just a want. It's a passion!

Bro what car you drive lose $50 a year? Most cars are depreciate at 10-20K a year.

Define "LUXURY".

When the term "Luxury" is applied to the hobby that we currently are in, most naturally the price figures of a watch tells us how "luxury" it can be.

However, when the term "Luxury" is applied to different income group, factor in the costs of major commitment in life... even a $200+ SEIKO/ORIENT/CITIZEN/ALBA/CASIO can become a "Luxury" item to one.

one man's rolex is another man's seiko

When u can tell time on your mobile, a watch is a luxury.

Wow richman really talk differently how can a 20-30k watches not consider luxury and is a anytime anyday thing ... Wonder how "big" is your collectionS now

Ah, at least you understand my point..... $20k - $30k watches is anytime anyday. Not considered luxury.

Maxxam, I second that .. Since PKC see Rolex "no up" and then why is he so active in this ROC forum but I think maybe he didn't know ROC stands for ROLEX OWNERS CLUB

You seem to dislike Rolex alot.
Saying Rolex is a low tier brand, uncle‘s watch and blah blah blah.
If you don‘t like Rolex, why are you in the Rolex Owners Club?
It saddens Rolex lovers.
Nimm12, pls stop defaming the watch brand that most ppl here love.
Don‘t you ever learn?
