    A nice watch always feel good, like a nice car, like a nice suit, like a nice pair of shoes. And there are plenty of girls who drop panties when they see the crown where the XII should be.
    That, basically.

    I don't buy a watch because some jerk on the street might care, I like it.

    Why is it considered the most important accessory?? I'd just get an iphone, looks cooler than a watch and does more stuff for less money.
    It actually doesn't have to be expensive or very trendy/cool looking, it just has to go with what you wear and complete the "look" as a whole. Watches like Rolex and Breitling are considered luxury and in entirely different category.

    You may not notice an expensive pair of shoes, but you'll notice the pair that looks old and dirty.

    This is correct. A quality suit, watch and a pair of shoes are pretty important investments for every "professional".

    So why do you have to get a 200 dollar watch if no one is going to notice it? Doesn't target or whatever sell nice looking ones for like a fourth of that price?

    Fossil and Nixon watches are pretty noticeable, imo it's more of a skater brand, it'll impress the same people that are impressed by a Burton jacket

    their watches are usually quite big

    If people are looking at your watch to make their assessment, then you have more important things to work on. As such, $20 at JCPenny seems like the best answer I've hear thus far.

    I do know better selections, but for your price range. They build some of the strongest watches I've ever owned or used.

    You didn't specify what you were looking for in the OP really other than design. So I'm guessing your looking for everyday casual/durability-function?

    Same reason why people buy better clothes, shoes, decoration, etc. I guess. Again, a good looking 500-1k watch that you may end up using for for 10~ years isn't a bad invesntment.

    It depends on your budget of course, a nice looking cheap watch looks much better than a big ass electronic expensive one on a suit.

    I've seen people wearing cheap sneakers under their suits. If they've got enough money to buy an iphone, they should also be able to afford a pair of black/business shoes from Wal-mart. Looks cheap, but won't make you look laugable at least.

    yes I do. If you have a big penis you make more money, and the more you act like a dick, the more money you'll make.

    You always get what you paid for, I have a collection of watches from a Rolex, Hamilton, Movado, Tag, Fossil, to even a bunch of cheap knock offs. They do get noticed, not by kids in college rebelling against our materialistic society, but by folks who you are going to do business with, or put your trust in. It isn't even the watch, it's the whole package.
