Probably the best bang for the buck in this list is with...Omega, Corum, B&M....Enjoy...

Patek Philippe
Vacheron Constantin
Girard-Perregaux
Audemars Piguet
IWC Schaffhausen
Girard-Perregaux
Baume & Mercier

Geez... I still think dropping a couple hundred is a lot of cash to spend on a watch...

A friend of mine used to work as a Parts rep in a Nissan dealership. She advised me to stay away from ALL Nissans - poor reliability.

I have owned several Nissans, no issues, we have a Maxima now, and it has had a few minor things, but nothing that would stop me owning one...
I drove the Murano, and almost bought one, but they are a bit pricey for what you are getting IMO...There are other alternatives out there...
But at the end of the day, you have to be happy with whatever you are buying...Do your research, and check KBB and Nada for prices...you'll be fine

Most of my watches are Kenneth Cole - nothing high class at all. But I like the style and the prices (around $100) are just fine by me.

I used to be into flossing the expensive accessories (watches, sunglasses, etc), but a few encounters with walls and tools and other inanimate objects have caused me to purchase less-costly-to-replace items.

I can't remember ever breaking a cheap watch or sunglasses, but the expensive ones break on my all the time.

Well, first rule is you gotta be a fatass like me. Then leave the stuff on seats (such as the driver's seat). Instant sunglass-watch-pancake.

Good thing I don't leave cucumbers on seats....hiiyyyyooooooooooo!!!
