How about $17.8M for Paul Newman's watch?
That is a collectors watch and truly one of a kind. It will only go up in value.

Yup. You're certainly right there!The rich get richer.....
I wouldn't even pay 10 euros for a watch. Any watch.
What's the point of having a watch ? The time is available everywhere these days. I bet that watch isn't even NTP-time-sychronized. My PC, my tablet, heck even my phone can tell time more accurately.
Property is nuisance.
What happens if the power goes out?

I already pay for a cell phone. Ill just look at that for the time. No need to spend more for time telling.
There will come a day soon where I will no longer carry a cell phone around with me 24/7. I look forward to that day.
Then you’d be wrong:I wouldn't even pay 10 euros for a watch. Any watch.

$7400 for a watch ? Not a chance to spend that much money for a watchAccurate timekeeping is assured by the installation of three advanced time-correction systems: terrestrial radio wave reception (Multi Band 6), GPS satellite signal reception and Bluetooth®transmission. The most appropriate system is selected automatically depending on the conditions, and the correct time is displayed for the current time zone anywhere in the world.these watches have a complex pin situation for the straps to adjust them and the losss of a cuff that is barely visible leads to upto a 1month wait for watch pins and cuffs, which are £4 and .47 pence respectively gshock should have included spares for the watch band Nighthawk X6S AC4000 Tri-Band A magnetic-resistant plate installed in the module prevents stoppage or shifting of the hands due to magnetic forces in everyday use without interfering with radio wave reception
if there are any indeed apart from the obvious aesthetics, secondly gshock doesnt list full specs for the watches, which is highly disrespectful when you are asking thousands for a watch that you have just entered into new waters ie luxury branding, Who else has that much amount of monthly amount to spend for a watch. Even the salary of an IAS officer in India is not sufficient to afford such a luxury item. The combined salary of an IAS officer includes basic pay, HRA and DA. Which is no way equals to the $7400 in a month. also these watches have a complex pin situation for the straps to adjust them and the losss of a cuff that is barely visible leads to upto a 1month wait for watch pins and cuffs, which are £4 and .47 pence respectively gshock should have included spares for the watch band
japan may have launched an esxpensive product however, there are certain points they are severly overlooking. firstly a premium watch requires a premium service and with these models, the representatives dont even know the differences in spec or if there are any indeed apart from the obvious aesthetics, secondly gshock doesnt list full specs for the watches, which is highly disrespectful when you are asking thousands for a watch that you have just entered into new waters ie luxury branding, also these watches have a complex pin situation for the straps to adjust them and the losss of a cuff that is barely visible leads to upto a 1month wait for watch pins and cuffs, which are £4 and .47 pence respectively gshock should have included spares for the watch band... another reason to tink before buying is depreciation and the fact that gshock will make future brands of these series mpre advanced, and be unable to increase the prices so these watches will be retrospect in the technology they boast now.....http://www.casio.com/products/watches/g-shock/mrgg2000ht
Seems like a cool watch but $7400? Um no...
