I don't know squat about movements and I know little of the quality differences between the big companies. I only own one expensive watch (aka over $1000). I bought it because it was so nice to look at and I dug the precision of the mechanics in it. I also wanted one high end watch for attending events when I was employed.
And hey, why not have some watch porn in this thread. I only have one picture of my watch and it is pretty clear so I hope folks don't get wound up that it is posed on a firearm.
