Beat: BeL0WaB0Ve doesn\'t understand watches
 
Highlighted from this interview, http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/poker...amp;id=3128255

Referring to his 1.3 mil win at the Bellagio cup,

Bluff: What was the first thing you bought for yourself afterward?

Saul: Actually, the only thing I've bought for myself so far was a ballin' watch so I could try and hang with Jared "TheWacoKidd" Hamby in the "ballin' watch department." It's a Movado and was definitely an impulse buy that I put very little research into.

Movados are actually good watches. Only a tool would buy a rolex.

So is rolex the only good watch out there? The fact that that everyone is like ya buy a rolex would make me not want to get one.

The fact that you just want to be different would make me believe you are a huge dork.

I've never heard of this thing called a watch.
Are they antique machinery like wheat thrashers?
Is this some new fad with wrist worn cellphones?

I thought it was a really good article and all of you are going off about 1 small paragraph and talking about watches you can't afford.

Omega and Panerai are both much better than Rolex in my opinion.

So I should assume you drive a Kia then? Since hey, they're all [censored] cars. Movado's are very nice watches, but I don't think I've ever heard anyone use the term baller to refer to them. It's like driving a new Accord, nice car, but far from baller.

I like raptor's watch. Very nice clean look. However, I hate Movado because everyone and their kewl nephew wears one in my circles.

Re: Beat: BeL0WaB0Ve doesn\'t understand watches
 
Question about baller:
Is the watch baller because it is expensive and only people who don't care about money, hence a baller, spend tons of cash on something stupid as hell like a watch? Or is the watch itself baller? Because if it's the watch that is baller you might as well get a chinese fake and then blow the cash on hookers/drugs and get the best of both.

All,

I don't get all the guys who are into getting a zillion watches. I just have two, one classic one that I can wear to work or nicer events and one more modern one that I wear to more casual or fun events. I'm thinking of getting one more that is more basic and minimalist in design, lemme know if you have any suggestions.

Re: Beat: BeL0WaB0Ve doesn\'t understand watches
 
just go to watchez.com and you can get high quality replicas of all the major "baller" brands.....rolex, jacob & co(baller), breitling, cartier, corum, etc. most have swiss movement, saphire crystals(scratch resistant glass)

Second one is interesting. I liked that Zenith watch but 20k is a bit much (even 15k if you trust an interweb dealer). I have a Breitling Super Something or other, it is actually too big so I don't where it that often but I like rocking it when I am in Vegas or London. Wasn't too spendy, I think like 4-5k, it is also a little different from the standard fare.

I like the Raymond Weil sport edition that you see (with the green dial) with Steve Nash in the ads, not sure how much that costs. Rolexes are a bit overdone. Annon Fillipi's Bulvgari (?!?) is pretty nice too.

I am with most of you I don't totally feel the Movado's, that one Raptor posted could easily be a Timex.
