Guys, am 26 this year and planning to get my first luxurious watch. I know its common for people my age to eye a Tag and such, but I rather invest in something different..
Out of curiosity, what is the entree level for a good branded watch? Are there any other levels or options besides Tag? It's so common...
Advise appreciated! Budget around 6k?

consider buying the IWC portofino automatic (new one just launched 2 months ago) thinking of also getting the bracelet instead of leather because the bracelet design is unique. what are the sifus comment? good watch to start with? entry level? this is my first big watch purchase, previously owned rm300 seiko

QUOTE(patryn33 @ Sep 20 2011, 08:35 AM) this? if so this is the 1st IWC (IWC Caliber 35110) which is base on Sellita! the older is base on ETA 2892. SW 300 is a clone of ETA 2892. no display back from my understanding. imho I rather go with a Zenith Elite for the price U'll be paying http://www.iwc.com/forum/en/discussion/27931/http://www.worldwatchreview.com/2011/01/28...matic-ref-3565/  ie http://forums.watchuseek.com/f27/back-zeni...iew-518029.html» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « or this chrono from your local grey http://www.collectorstime.com/zenith.php» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «  Uploaded with ImageShack.us» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «  Uploaded with ImageShack.ussifu patryn, appreciate your feedback. now you've got me thinking again! could u elaborate why u recommend another option based on the price i would be paying? is it because for that price, IWC offers a watch which has lower "specs" compared to others in that price range? to be honest, i don't understand all these ETA 2892, Selita, IWC Caliber 355110...they sound like Da Vinci codes to me! I've never been a watch enthusiast before!
