Poker, my 1 hobby, funds in part my other hobby. For those that dont know, I am a bit of a watch enthusiast. I have always had a slight interest, but since I got my wife her watch, I have ignited a fire and enthusiasm for fine timepieces that I did not realize I had. Now that brings several issues to me. I tend to like the more high dollar watches. There are 3 watches that I want right now. I cant decide. I like the RGM, but nobody has ever heard of them, I like the Zenith, but everyone will think it is the TV manufacturer, and I love the Ulysee Nardin. I am still mulling it over. Probably wont get one till October. Since I bought my wife a Patek Phillipe last month, my watch fund was destroyed. Just for reference, here is my idea of watches based on tiers:




Tier one - $20,000 - $250,000 +
Patek Philippe
Vacheron Constantine
Audemars Piquet

Tier two - $10,000 - $60,000 +

Tier three - $5000 - $30,000 + (quality significantly less than tier 2)

Rolex
Omega
Carl F Bucherer

Cartier
Panerai
RGM




Tier four - $1000-$5000
