I'm not into watches really but I'm a complete brand we and like to show off a bit. I have a Seiko Kinetic that just isn't cutting it anymore so I've put maybe 20 grand aside for something that'll catch the eye and impress people. What would you recommend I get?

A Rolex GMT and Sub then put one on each wrist that'll really impress people and also ensure that even though they might not be able to see one wrist they will still see the other, so you're maxing out the opportunity to impress, bi metal ones catch the sun better than steel so that again will draw the eye of your audience.

Some lessons in making troll posts less obvious.

I'd be looking at some of the Invicta range.....some real eye candy wrist trinkets and well within your 20k budget. ...

It's ok, you can stop now, I get the message, this isn't the place to ask about anything worth more than £250.

What did you expect? You joined PH in the last 24 hours, made a couple of non specific posts, and now you claim you want to spend £20k on a watch and you don't even like watches.

Like I said, what did you expect?

He expected people not to notice that he was trolling.

It's cool, don't worry, I'll ask people who know about nice things, you guys can get back to drooling over G Shocks.

Honestly, it's ok, sorry I bothered you. I didn't even exist before I joined Pistonheads, of course there's no way I can drop 20 grand on a trinket.

You said in your post in the Bad Parking thread that you're a 'long time viewer'. If that was the case you'd know the phrase is lurker, and you'd know how things go when new posters with zero post history to speak of start out with a claim they're going to spend heavily on something.

Spend heavily? Pal, these things are relative.
