How many "serious" watches do you have?

This may be my favorite quip I've ever received on OF.

It hits too close to home.

Fortunately, my job came with a perpetual watch fund, err, I mean a defined benefit pension plan.

The serious collectors collections are too serious to play.

I think someone can have 30 Casio and be more serious about watches than one with 5 Rolex.

Honey, is that you? I told you....all together they might be worth 800. I love you.

I have a seiko or 2 that breaks that level...

FUnny thing is most of the coolest pieces I have I purchashed for under 1,000.

IMHO the price doesn't matter only the beauty and the story you can tell with it.

Serious watches? All my watches are watches, seriously. But here are some of the more flippant ones

These means serious business... If being in the business end of a left hook.

Amazing! I share your fondness for seriously beefy watches, but you've got me beat!

Plenty I like a lot but not many that break the bank. It’s funny when money is “tight” I tend to buy. I recently passed i milestone and we have the funds even my wife asked me what I wanted but it doesn’t seem as important at the moment. I’m sure that will change soon probably when I get my collection out of lock and key I miss my railmaster and my few others that were good to squander cash on. Recently saw this and fell in love but I’m pretty sure it’s more than a nice car

If a Minerva, yes it is. I like it too.

As serious as it gets.

Someone got it as their first mechanical watch unless they were trolling, if not impressive.

Montblanc makes so many nice things that catch my eye.

Lol. Yeah, all my watches actually belong to Erric. I have his address and telephone number if anybody wants it.

I lost everything in a boating accident

You lost my watches, Erric!?! Well, this is not a boat accident! It was a shark.
