Yesterday I went to the local mall and for fun I thought I'd look at what the jewelers had as far as watches. Needless to say I was not impressed. There were entire cases dedicated to chines quartz movement crap with gold paint. One even had them on front center display. At one jeweler I asked to look at one watch that was actually a mechanical movement... The movement was held in place by a plastic ring and had a heart beat so slow it moved almost like a quartz. I politely said I was looking for something smoother and walked out. I did not find a single quality watch all day. Next time I won't waste an afternoon so frivolously but it was comical seeing all the crap displayed like it's great.

I will continue to wear my Philip Watch co. And not bother with looking at shop windows.
