Thanks for all the helpful replies. I'm used to posting in SW&D, where almost every question is met with contempt and mockery. Or is it just that the new SF format has everyone in a good mood?


negative!

the average age of MC posters is about 30-40, SW&D it's about 13-15.

If anyone is interested, I ended up going with the stainless steel Frederique Constant (on ebay for about $600):



I'll hold off on anything gold until I can afford it and know what I'm doing.

Have a look at Maurice Lacroix. Not just for gold watches, but for watches in general.

Hi man,
Hope you did not pay too much cause it is 100% fake...loke at this magnifier...real rolexes have 2,5X which means the number expands the whole cyclops.
thanks,

Thanks for your advice. It's not a fake rolex, it's a real Frederique Constant with some rolex-inspired features.
