Nice. What is it?
It's a Glashütte. Not sure if they still make that exact model or not, but whenever I decide or am forced to replace my Tag, I'm hunting one down.

Good call. Gorgeous looking watch.
I've had my eye on it for years. Been out of my range 'til...well, it would still be a pretty stupid purchase.
That will probably never be in my 'range,' even if I can at some point afford it. Too bad. :/

So what kind of prices are we looking at here? Rolex prices?

The second one is about the same as a Mercedes SLR.

Found the thread where I first saw a Glashütte. Not that exact one, but somebody posted one similar to it.
I guess I've wanted that one for about 5 years.

Which is still a lot of cash to drop. And like I'm just finding out, the cost of servicing it every once in a while won't be cheap either (especially after Googling them - They use their own specific movements etc., so you'd be sending it back to Germany to have it sorted out... hold on to your TAG ).
Fucking nice though, I have to say.

Yeah, I'll probably wait 'til it kicks the bucket or gets stolen. I don't see the former happening--I haven't even had to replace the damn battery in 6 years!
...unless we do well enough this year. I have a "fuck yeah, 2011 was good" list of presents to give to myself if we hit certain numbers. If we don't go over any of them, I'll buy some Dungarees and cry.

Seriously? Fuck I had to replace the battery on my Tissot twice since I've owned it, which is also about 6 years.
