I bought 56$ an Invicta golden watch 6963 @Jomashop.com with a coupon 10$ off
but 20$ for shipping to Canada (free shipping for USA).

# Precision Swiss Quartz Movement
# 10 ATM - 100 m - 330 ft - Water Resistant

initial weight 180 g !
160g after I removed 4 pins.
Very nice but too heavy, Ridiculous for a quartz watch.
I probably will not buy again this brand.

MSRP 395$ and sale around 80$ on ebay & amazon.com +shipping.
About shipping from US sellers, what do you use for US mail forwarding service ?

About advantages / privilege from a Luxury watch, I read accuracy. It was true but no more.

I prefer buy many with different design. Recently, I got more than 60 watches for the price of One luxury watch at 1500$.
I need to buy a display watch case with glass for my collection.
I have also a collection of watches band (gold tone & silver tone metal).

52$ with shipping for 12 watches storage/display. it seems a good deal.

as per OP's request for silver/aluminum displays,

here is a 15 watch display:

can't find my display case that holds 5, but it's similar. i got it on ebay for $40 (or less) shipped if i remember correctly like a year ago. i tried to find the same one online but i cannot now.

it is similar to this but i have a swivel hook rather than the clip seen in this picture: http://cgi.ebay.com/8-Watch-Aluminiu...item5197ca780c

Sorry but IMHO few are snobby and also upset by my opinion about luxury watch.
Thank you for your ebay link. Shipping cost kill the deal for Canadians.

What's your opinion about luxury watches? All you've posted here are cheap fashion watches or lame imitators.

[LegiT]

Lol @ $200 watches. What better way to show everyone you're poor.

No one in the thread except for one snob frowns upon $200 watches. We all respect one another. The problem is with the OP coming in and posting watches from Wal Mart or replicas/fake watches and essentially calling everyone else idiots for spending $1500 on 1 versus his 60.

i can't find the same seller for my box, it was the last one she had.. but ya the links i sent were for references only (not a bargain at all).

watch collecting is enjoyable, he just went the quantity route instead of quality..

[GunnerX]

What are you gonna do with that many bargain bin quartz watches?

[mr_raider]

Yes. But you can get excellent quartz and auto movements below 200$. Hence my suggestion for the Orient watch. This thread should not be about quantity, it should about quality under 200$.

Recently found a mall near my house that sells automatic Seagull movement watches!
