Have a general (wholly undeveloped) interest in watches.

Came accross this feature on GQ which I know would not normally be first step in expanding my knowledge but exposed me to some pieces I doubt I would normally see / seek out elsewhere.

Anyhows the selection is more than a bit random, some I really like, dislike and others a bit perplexed at the attraction or the price!!!

As always with 'specialist' items imagine multitude of opinions, styles, fashions and generally gadgetry etc. etc. (ignore the 'best of' proclamation!) but thought other members might like a flick through these as may come accross somethingof interest you might not ordinarily see also.

That's a heck of a list. Several choices that I disagree with. Panerai Ferrari collection? I'd never have any of those be the distinguishing watch for their line. Zenith Defy whatever? Not my choice either...

Compiled by someone with an even smaller knowledge of watches.

Should read GQ's most interesting and expensive watches.

Even Hugo Boss made it on to the list confused

I think they were influenced quite heavily when making that list!!

Quote regarding the Philip Stein watch:

'The USP of these watches is the integral Teslar chip, which is claimed to imitate the vibration frequency of the earth and transmit its healing powers to the wearer'

cheers

as i inferred the 'best of' list should have perhaps been 'very random'

By "best" did they mean "bling" or "fussy"?
