Thanks, guys. It gave me a few chuckles. :)

"You never actually own a Patek Phillippe. You merely look after it for your douchebag son"

Haha. Oh man.

"Hublot put the ‘whore’ in horology" and "You never actually own a Patek Phillippe. You merely look after it for your douchebag son." Two pretty classic lines, and hard to argue with his logic.

Thanks for posting. this

jjnd08 · 6 August 2015, 04:54 AM

That's pretty funny.

I liked the lines about the Yachtmaster and Cuban's quote.

subtona · 6 August 2015, 05:11 AM

Funny

"Rolex says you've got a little bit of money, but nothing interesting to say."

"Hublot put the ‘whore’ in horology."

Mark Cuban said, “When you control time, you don’t need to know what time it is.”

Funny stuff, thanks for the chuckle.

Wow AP and IWC got slammed, too.

rootbeer7 · 6 August 2015, 05:23 AM

My starter watch was a Rolex Just Date....
