I was tempted to get a Tag Kerium F1 but they are no longer produced. At least in the one style I wanted, plain black face with yellow digital display.
Has anyone here got an Aquanautic? Here's a pic of one of the ones I like:
Been looking for a good deal on one for more than a year now, but somewhat reluctantly, because I can't figure out if they are actually reliable - and I've never met anyone who has one.

How did you know?
I would take it in Platinum with a stainless band though.

thats the tourbillon!!!!! I love it
And yes, I love the tourbillons - hopefully, I'll one day reach a point in my life when I can finally get one without having to file bankruptcy afterward

I like watches,too. Here is a stock photo of my current piece:
18k yellow gold with rose gold accents. I got a steal of a deal on it but would have paid retial for it since I like it so much. I am a fan of Cartier also. The Tank American is beautiful but I think my next one will have to be the Ballon Blue. I haven't had a round watch in years.

My Mini Decent Watch Collection
Left - Roger Dubuis Easy Diver Carbon Fiber Face 157/888 made - rarely wear it. I'm afraid to scratch it.
Middle - Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Extra Glow - Not that comfy but looks nice. EXCELLENT for diving!!
Right - Rolex Explorer II Black Face - VERY VERY scratched up. Needs to be refinished. Love how simple it looks and does not look expensive. Perfect everyday watch.
Attachment 94040

ive got a cartier pasha chrono, but im not much of a watch fanatic anymore, so 90% of the time i wear my black swatch i use to have an audemars piguet ROO but sold it since AP was coming out with all the ridiculous special editions of the ROO (the terminator 3 edition???? the shaquille oneil edition????) just put me off to that brand...though some of them are pretty sweet (like the las vegas ROO), theyve completed diluted their brand IMO.

Funny, somebody mentioned they wore a "BMW" watch. I wonder if they also experience the slam and the "walk slowly to nearest watch dealer" messages...
After 115,000 minutes the date dial stops keeping working. (my e30 referenece)
