In other threads we have been informed on what members might or might not up-size, down-size or stay-size with for their next automobile purchase.

Now, may I ask which watch you won't buy next.

In my case, if I singled out one watch manufacturer, it is the revolting Armarni watch range which represents fashion over quality - you?

I am not too keen on Casio and Swatch watches as well as those Armarni ones.

Timex, every time I've ever owned one it has lost time, gained time or broken down completely within a month of getting the damnable thing  :angry:

I HATE fashion watches, £600 for a cr@p watch just because some designer sticks their name on it.

I've not worn a watch for over 3 years. My battery needed replacing just before we went away on holiday and it needed sending away, so I thought it would wait until we got back. When we got back, I found I'd not really missed it and have not worn one since.

It's actually quite liberating.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

I think swatch watches are good value for money tbh - do they still use eta movements as per TAG etc?
