Oh, get real. If I can pay $20 for something instead of $35, why should I be a fool to pay the higher price?
A gentleman can wear an Omega or a Timex and he can carry it off just as well. Honey, an Omega is just a watch. GEt a life. I have my Seamaster Chronograph on my wrist when I wipe my butt. Does this make me a better person?
: Hi friends,
: Please do not get me wrong. I have to share
: something that will probably rise a wave
: against me but it’s important in my point of
: view. There are a lot of postings here
: concerning the price people have to pay in
: order to get an Omega watch. I understand
: that everybody is looking for the lowest
: possible price and probably there's nothing
: wrong with it unless...it wasn't about an
: Omega watch. People, you're not shopping
: around for a pair of socks or t-shirts that
: go buy 1 get 1 free for God sake! Most
: people have the same Wall mart mentality no
: matter if they buy cheese, soap or a plane.
: For me, these people do not know what
: they're buying at all. There is something
: very special about expensive and fine things
: – they mean style, finesse, quality,
: timelessness, meaningfulness etc. i.e. the
: real values. People who wear them must
: possess all or most of these real values.
: Because if you put an Omega watch on the
: wrist of a construction worker /nothing
: personal/, with all this person is expected
: to be, not only wouldn’t he turn into a
: gentleman but also the watch will lose most
: of what it is. But if you put the same watch
: on the wrist of a real gentleman, with all
: this word represents, they both will add to
: their values. Buying an expensive and
: quality thing just because you CAN afford it
: means nothing. How about all those people
: who spend their year’s savings on a watch
: just to find themselves in a situation to
: ask how much it’ll cost to adjust their
: bracelet. If you have an Omega on your wrist
: you don’t ask how much! Because it doesn’t
: matter. Price has nothing to do with the
: whole thing here. Neither is important how
: much money you make. How much it costs to be
: a born Leader who would lead a nation to
: prosperity or a Man who would sacrifice his
: life to save the world? Buy 1 get 1 free,
: oh, I’ll take two, please…No, it doesn’t
: work that way. And looking through the eyes
: of the real values people who don’t deserve
: to have an Omega on their wrist are visible
: like a duck among swans. My advice is: if
: it’s not for you don’t buy it. It won’t make
: you more intelligent, beautiful, brave or
: valuable. There is a good chance nobody will
: mention that Seamaster on your wrist.
: Because it's not the watch - it's YOU! If
: you have any doubt about it there is no
: doubt. Forget it. Save yourself the laugh.
: How to know it – start with this: Do you ask
: yourself how much it costs and is a gray
: market deal better than authorized or should
: I buy these marked down tulips instead of
: that phenomenal 100-red-rose bouquet for the
: one I love…
