Notice Rolex is not on the list...

I will keep looking for a mint GMT Coke.

kyle L · 30 September 2009, 05:42 AM

This is my favorite out of all of them.

I'm with you bill, I'm craving a Pepsi!

karmatp · 30 September 2009, 05:56 AM

Interesting, thanks for posting Bill.

rvan · 30 September 2009, 05:58 AM

They cheated putting a pocket watch in there haha.

vh_bu98 · 30 September 2009, 06:00 AM

I don't think Rolex will ever be on that list since it doesn't fit into their business model.

JBat · 30 September 2009, 06:06 AM

Kind of puts things in perspective when people complain about $5-10K Rolex models.

Speed · 30 September 2009, 06:09 AM

The # 1 watch is the ugliest watch I have EVER seen.

Yeah. Wonder if a NATO strap would spice it up??

icnbne · 30 September 2009, 06:34 AM

that PP pocket watch is amazing

dukester · 30 September 2009, 06:59 AM

By far the ugliest watch! I wouldn't buy that watch for 25 bucks, let alone $25 million.

BarkMaster · 30 September 2009, 07:03 AM

Rolex is by far the #1 most expensive watch (on MY list, anyway).

RW16610 · 30 September 2009, 07:14 AM

Wow, some amaizng watches there. Thanks for sharing this

Agreed, that is possibly the most striking watch I have ever seen! Cool link.

bodybump · 30 September 2009, 07:32 AM

that number one watch looks like a candy...hahaaha

Rolesor · 30 September 2009, 07:47 AM

Wow the GMT II ICE can't even contend with the "cheapest" watch on that list hahaha I'd rather buy 20 rollies and a house than almost all of those watches lol

haakon59 · 30 September 2009, 09:05 AM

Those are some nice watches pictured. But it doesn't surprise me that Rolex is not on their list because Rolex is a mass produced brand meant to sell to the now decreasing (at least in the US anyway) middle class. Rolex doesn't try to compete for complications, etc. Rolex is doing a great job marketing however, if you are surprised they are not on the list.

Toxicant · 30 September 2009, 09:37 AM

I think they should exclude any watch with stones that aren't in the movement. There is no end to adding stones to drive the price up, besides I don't mind a few here and there but some of these diamond watches are just plain obnoxious.

cody p · 30 September 2009, 09:40 AM

that vc is lovely.

I was only partially serious about Rolex being absent. Only chance was if there was some special diamond encrusted slliness.

Nevertheless there are a few nice pieces as pointed out by Kyle and others.

mfer · 30 September 2009, 10:58 AM

And no one will ever pay those prices.

Example.

Still, not cheap, but a big hit. Think how many Rolex $300k would buy!

USCpaneristi · 30 September 2009, 12:20 PM

I just threw up in my mouth... a litle bit...

kyle L · 30 September 2009, 12:25 PM

I'd much rather have this.

nektar · 30 September 2009, 02:02 PM

i do not like them!!if i had to live with one of them....i was going to wear my sub.. or the yellow gold sub/ the ultimate

Boopie · 30 September 2009, 03:40 PM

The article forgot to add the cost of a bodyguard (or two) when you wear those watches.

Tiggilawson · 30 September 2009, 07:00 PM

They all look amazing (except that rediculous #1 Chopard) but I wouldn't choose one at any price to be on my wrist!

SeamasterGMT · 30 September 2009, 08:24 PM

They've missed some out. Like the £1.5m JLC (very) limited edition Hybris Mechanica Grande Sonnerie.

Brushpup · 30 September 2009, 08:56 PM

O would say the Chopard should be out of the contest.......it's barely a watch at all.

hsung · 30 September 2009, 09:15 PM

The last one or the most expensive at $25 mil looks more like a purse than a watch

tkc324 · 1 October 2009, 12:10 AM

Some of these watches are expensive due to adding diamond... I can add 300 ct of diamonds to a timex and call it the most expensive watch too... its crap.

Blueoctopus007 · 1 October 2009, 01:34 AM

Dear Santa,

I have been a Good Boy, so can I please pic one of these watches for Xmas this year?

Pretty Please !!!!!
