    People who trade in vehicles after 0-2 years for silly reasons. Are people really this bad with finances?

    wrist and pocket watch Freak

    Yea. Its attractive. But I have watches that (In m y opinion) are nicer (to me). To me.; If I loved the watch and really WANT an upper tier watch, ok. I am not sure this particular model is worth that $$$ though.
