Thanks!

IMHO, winder can do without unless you got a perpetual calender or moonphase watch which require some time to re-set it.
How difficult to wind a 3 hands watch with day date functions?
Me myself is one-watch-per-week guy, I just left my other watches idle in watchbox.

common logic prevails in your case...

but some people want the luxury of having the watches "ready for action" the moment they pick it up... the need for watch winders is definitely not a 3rd world problem brows.gif

I'm after a multi-slot mitch&marc watch winder as soon as my wallet recovers smile.gif

Tag, Zenith & Omega for the first real watch and introduction to the world of horology
Panerai, IWC for the up and coming executive in his 20s
Rolex, Corum & JLC for 30s... you starting to make a name for yourself...
Audemars, A Sange Lohne, Richard Mille for 40s... for the appreciation of finer things in life...
Patek to die to the grave (cause we'll all be old fogies by he time we can afford these...and grand kids these days don't deserve such fine inheritance)

few will get a Zenith for their 1st real watch.
The price of Zenith is close to IWC, most ppl rather go with a IWC for that matter as their 1st watch.
Corum? for the 30s... really subjective.
if can afford AP, RM can afford PP already, no need to die to grave. U are just too brain wash by the ads imho.
*
just the way i perceive watch houses according to a the aura i feel they represent smile.gif
alot of it comes from real life experience...not necessarily by myself but by the people around me...
I was merely trying to cliche and stereotype multi generations of people..
Its not totally about what one can afford...

Of course if you disagree then i am most interested to see your alternative comments..When i put my comments in a public forum i always hope it can stir some discussions...

P.S I bought my G-Shock & IWC after my Rolex, so I for one have not followed the mould that i suggested
