Blog 47

This blog is going to be about the top five watches, listed in no particular order, that I would buy if I had unlimited funds. The first watch on the list, which is the cheapest, and probably the most practical is the Rolex Sea-Dweller. The Sea-Dweller is made out of extremely tough stainless steel, features an automatic movement, is a certified chronometer, and is waterproof up to an amazing 3,900 meters. Not only is the Sea-Dweller one of the toughest watches around but it also has the same sleek easily recognizable Rolex look to it. The second watch I would buy is the Las Vegas Strip Tourbillon from Audemars Piguet’s Royal Oak Offshore collection. The Vegas Strip Tourbillon is powered by an automatic movement and it’s functions include a chronograph, date, hours, minutes, seconds, and, of course, a tourbillon. This watch weighs in at a staggering $190,000 but it is more of an investment than a purchase because this watch was manufactured in a limited edition of 35 pieces so it will only appreciate in value. The watch comes with both a leather and rubber strap so it can be worn for formal dress occasions, or as an everyday watch. The third watch on my list is the $38,000 Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712R which is another self-winding dress watch. The Nautilus is made of 18k rose gold and is sold with a leather strap with a matching 18k rose gold deployment buckle. The Nautilus has several unique features in addition to hours, minutes, seconds, and date, such as a power reserve indicator and a moon phase complication. I’m at the 250 word mark now so I guess I’ll save the rest of my list for the next free blog since it’s so hard to find a good topic these days.
