Guys,

What would be two most important factors when choosing a watch?

- Price

- Brand Image

- Style/Design

- Complication

- Re-Sale value

- After Sales Service

I would choose Price and Re-Sale Value :)

style/design and price....btw, you need to edit your poll to permit multiple responses.

I don't think most will notice.

If you PM Dalip, he will fix it. He is clever.

He will ask Peter, Larry or Kenneth.

Do I like it and does it work.

Too logical. Those are not the most important things. You buy luxury items (like watches) with your heart not your head. You can try and turn it into a logical argument. You could even buy that way, but you won't be happy. Follow your heart not your head.

joe100 · 15 May 2012, 11:04 PM

Mine are:

1) I like it
2) Disregard all other opinions and get what I want

I don't believe the answers. You're telling me that a our members would choose a $40 watch that has cool styling and design over a Rolex?

This exactly!

Style/Design
Useful Feature/Complications

impalass · 16 May 2012, 12:23 AM

All of the above, sorry to be so vague, but I can't really narrow it down, although after 30 years of hit and miss after service with my Omega/Rolex watches, brand service has risen in importance.

Omega after service has been dissapointing every time, even before Swatch took over. (my first visit was in the 80's) Still love my Omegas, and go to an independant now.

RSC on the other hand has been a pleasure each and every time. All my experiences are Toronto based, and just my two cents worth.

A.J.R. · 16 May 2012, 12:54 AM

Style/design for sure

Hairdude1 · 16 May 2012, 12:55 AM

Style/ design. Re sale for me

ManUtd · 16 May 2012, 01:01 AM

Price and style/design for me.

Value,Value,,Value,,,those are the three most important things about a Rolex.

I chose the complications but would also like to add the style/design and the price.
