Is this true? I heard all watches depreciate in value faster than a ford mustang.

He did not buy a watch. He bought a Rolex, used.

Go to timezone, get a NIB Rolex Submariner with all tags, manufacturers warranty and stickers intact, for about $3,400.

New it's $4,000+. So you can probably sell it in a few years for about what you paid for it, if not more.

Rolex and Omega mechanicals are design so that you can use a JACKHAMMER and discharge your SHOTGUN without any ill effects. If you buy one, wear it.

Daily!

I was thinking about getting a submariner. I love the panerais but I dont how they are for wear about 4-5 times per week. I have also heard that breitlings are indestructable so I am going to take a look at those too.

I wear my Panerai Luminor Marina 7 days a week. I take it off to sleep, shower, and cycle (I don't want to ruin my leather bands).
