why we need expensive watch

[frie2u]

juz wonder on the matter.. why we need expensive watch:

1. status;
2. function of the watch - chrono, diver watch; pilot watch etc
3. admire of the beauty of watch;
4. how many u keep at least

[CKL1213]

you want it, not need it

[kenji1903]

we don't need one... we want one, the more expensive the watch, the more self kimochi he/she has

2, 3, 1

I personally feel it's a personal interest mixture with sentimental value. Of course, Status as well 

[el118]

I think for what ever reason people can think of, be it functions, design, precious materials, history etc, it boils down to 2 fundamental reasons

"Status" and "Siok Sendiri".

[timenut]

I want nice watches primarily for 3.

If I want something which has a lot of functions, I'd probably go with a digital watch. Even my iphone has more functions.

Also, not really bothered about status and how many I have.

to stand out of the crowd and be different !

[noobzpro]

Coz they look good and fascinates me with the movements....a combinations of parts able to tell time as accurately as possible.

[D'Andy]

Siok Sendiri definitely rings the bell. Feels good to watch the watch as the mechanical movement ticks, no pun intended 

[TheWatchMan]

Watches are men's wearable high-tech luxury toy.

[Calibr]

Mostly self satisfaction, or siok-sendiri, to wear expensive watches. Then again, "expensive" is a relative term!

[Spider boy]

We do not need an expensive watch nor we want one , is just unfortunate that the watches we like are expensive.. ... 

[engkow]

the word expensive refer to people like me ... a watch over a thousand is expensive.. to some wearing a watch costing hundred
of thousand to millions still cheap....

[Devilzzz44]

For  "SHIOKK" Sendiri lo...

[sidestreaker]

Because they are preciooussss.....

[meoramri]

If we really want to stand out from the crowd, a Ferrari is the way to go.

Those who called themselves watch collectors or horologist will chase after a watch not because of its face value but because of its intrinsic value.

Unfortunately, the level of technology/precision is directly proportional to face value. Hence the notion that we are always going after expensive watches.

I love my Seiko5 but I also love my IWC. Vastly different face values but intrinsic values are much closer.
