Sort of like mine. I am all over the place with my watches. We all follow what interests us and fits within our budget.

I think he should be the moderator for the Lacoste watch forum if there ever were to be one.

“Do you have the one with half closed eye on the crocodile??”

“That’s a vintage piece that they only made 100,000 for in the Chinese market. Too rare for my blood!”

It's unfair to be so cynical - a watch is a piece of jewelry, not a time-providing device any more. One buys what one likes, and can afford, and what makes one feel good. Some folks get their kicks out of modern art, or classic art, which both have about the same functional quality as a watch - ie zero... If your friend likes Lacoste and fashion watches, and he's happy with what's in his watch box, then more power to him 👍 To each is own....

To each his own. Some collect and wear such watches for pure lifestyle/aesthetics/fashion reasons. I know tons of people who wear such watches and it suits them well for all kinds of different reasons. One thing is for sure, you won't see one of those BMW, Porsche, Mercedes steering wheel wrist shots with these watches. A good thing 🙄

I guess both @Lonestar and I were typing our responses simultaneously!

Well someone’s watch is 9 minutes out. 😗 😁😁

I think he might have a family member who works for Lacoste.

We all had to start somewhere, at least he shows a horological interest. Maybe you should mentor him and help him out?

There's no hope here.
