Seriously? OK, i'm sure not ALL expensive shoes are comfortable to everyone. But he who buys uncomfortable shoes either a) bought the wrong shoes or b) is a woman (why do women always wear uncomfortable shoes??) My Park Avenues are VERY comfortable, they look great and they will last a VERY long time.
I really think you're missing the point here. Nobody's telling you that you have to buy an expensive watch. Hell, most people don't even WEAR watches any more. For that matter, why would you bother with a quartz watch when your cell phone clock would be 100x more accurate and precise? Is a watch WORTH $5000? Value is subjective. If you're willing to pay $5000, then it's worth it to you. No? The luxury watches aren't worth the money to you. That's fine. I don't need to justify or quantify my purchases. I own several sub $100 watches that I love. What we're arguing with you here is your statement that a $300 copy is the same as the $5000 Rolex. It's just not. The fit and finish isn't as good, the movement is NOT as accurate OR precise and lying about it and claiming it's a $5000 watch is just disingenuous. If you want a "status symbol" watch, you can find a REAL quartz Movado museum face (just as recognizable as that Rolex) that non-watch people will be just as impressed with around the same price as the replica.
