It's an Emergency!

Hi chums,

Well my favourite watch company finally announced the successor to my beloved Emergency.

The Emergency II :clap:

See me all excited, but then someone told me the price......... :thumbdown:

£12040.00

So, I won't be getting one after all.....

I think my wife is secretly rather pleased.....

If you sell your wife, you will get the money AND not have to worry about her displeasure! ;)

I would do that, but I love her too much.

The video at the bottom of this page might not do a lot to dissuade you not to sell the wife! It's certainly a fine timepiece...although some of the faces are god awful, particularly the orange one...yeurch!

Personally I prefer the Emergency Mission A73322 to the ones with the ani/digi faces. For that money I'll stick with my Bentley GT Racing chronograph that I had as a gift when I left my last job

The question is, which of both does hold its value better?

Well, for the watch you have to take into account keeping it in good nick, services (? I don't wear a timepiece so I don't know) etc.

With a wife, if you do it right, you're pretty much guaranteed a steady ROI each year so that's a definite positive. But then you spend money on the wedding, feeding her and shoes...

I think it's pretty even.

Just couldn't part with the Panerai Luminor huh? So....what all did you sell for the wedding fund? Have you got your eyes on any others?

As for Rolexes....I just never saw the appeal I'm afraid. There are one or two exceptions but I don't think they'd be top of my list.

Just couldn't part with it but everything else went just me 005 and a g/shock for work.

Had it 10 years wore it about 10 times just not me




A life's times worth of collecting gone but at least the weddings paid for.

That must have hurt to sell those.

Since we are sharing here is the huge chunk of steel I put on this-morning before leaving for work. Not the most expensive watch by any stretch but it is an eye catcher just by its huge size. It's 19mm thick too which doesn't come across in the photo - and I don't have thin wrists either...
