For me it would be the Eric Clapton Patek platinum perpetual calendar chronograph reference 2499/100.

Yep.

I'd buy FP Journe's catalogue, or at least most of them, and really get into vintage Rolex.

Platinum Daytona is so unimaginative, and way too cheap. This is where it's at.

It's really not crazy. I wouldn't want a gold Porsche, either.

Tacky and ostentatious.

Might as well get a michael kors and spend the $$$ on something else.

It would be this one, the platinum day date with pave and emerald. Non-Rolex, the Lange Datograph Perpetual Tourbillon (borrowed pics)

PM is fine; no diamonds on a man's watch for me. I'd have to be a xxxxxx, xxxx, or xxxxxxxx to wear that. You fill in the blanks; I don't want to get into trouble.

I've just thrown up...

...on the cat, and the cat wants to know why, so I showed it the picture. Cat has apologized but asked that I should be careful about what I look at when the cat is in the room.
