What is your point?
The wealthy have always squandered massive amounts of money on useless shit that is not worth anything other than showing how much cash they have to burn. Nothing new here.
So you understand the concept but don't understand the point...............hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......
So, if you desire one so bad. Earn enough money to BUY one. It really is that simple. Just think, Kim Kardashian has no skills that anyone can think of other than an ability to film a sex tape, and look where she is now.
It really is that simple. Instead of whining and moping DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
Your post is more epic than I could have fished you out of.
Someone with no skills can get that watch yet some American families can't make a house payment. I'm glad you opened that door kiddo.
I don't need that watch. My family does just fine.
I love that you don't understand the point, as always.![]()
The point is you whine incessantly about those who have more than you. That's it. You're a one trick pony. The reality of horology is if it weren't for rich people (who in one case have actually funded a school to keep the skills alive) all there would be are cheap battery powered watches. It is simply too expensive for the vast majority of people to buy a high quality mechanical watch/chronograph. Thus, were it not for rich people supporting the craftsmen who make them, those people would be out of a job and those highly specialized and technical skills would be lost.
That's the reality of those expensive watches but you're too fucking stupid to look past the end of your pointy nose and see what the back story is. You simply don't care about the back story because your petty jealousy doesn't allow you to see.
You're like the imbeciles vandalizing the Buddhist statuary in Afghanistan because it offended your sensibilities. Ignoring the fact that you have the sensibilities of a barbarian.
