[quote=Anonymous][quote=FBO]Considering Cartiers will last a LONG time, think of it this way; he really only spent about $200/year for it to be on your wrist for the next 25 years. Have a daughter to pass it to? Even better. Pretty good investment. [/quote] +1 My husband bought me a Rolex for a wedding present, and I wear it every day. I'd have gone through ten watches by now if I were buying cheaper ones. Many people wear Cartier/Rolex watches that are 50 years old, or older. I will give the watch to one of my children. I have expensive cashmere sweaters that are ten years old and look great. The $50 sweater I bought last year has already pilled up and looks crappy. I do think that people who were raised "cheap" (not necessarily "poor") often don't understand that spending more money up front for quality can be smarter in the long run. [/quote]
