So I never really got the appeal of watches (or sunglasses) that cost over $100 until I decided to look up Breitling and a few other watch company websites after seeing them in ESPN Magazine and Wired and such.

Some looked really cool and so I looked at the prices....fucking 8 grand for some of this shit? Why?

That really bummed me out. I thought some of them looked really good, professionally, and I'd find a few hundred bucks for craftsmanship to be reasonable for it.

But thousands? Maybe I'll wait until I'm something before looking at watches like that again.

Have you seen the tiny cogs inside the watches. To get the watch accurate takes a lot of skill. That's why it costs so much.

What's wring with a $100 Fossil watch that still keeps time well two years after buying it?

Not knocking against more expensive ones, but why the different technology?

I still want one.

Huh? I don't have cable at all. My gf wants to watch Shameless and I don't want to be bothered dl'n them or showing her how to

Well Dish customers are in danger of losing CBS and Showtime and a few others. Been hearing the ads on the radio.

this question is so ignorant lol.

it's like asking why a brand new BMW doesn't cost 10 grand.

I mean, what car does cost $10K?

I'm just asking reasonably for what makes these watches hit 4 or even 5 digits in price?

 

[Pittsey]

A Yaris

 

[dilla]

A Yaris

Maybe in the UK, but it's still about $15K here. I'm going to try building one maxed out with all the options.

 

[dilla]

$18K without shit like wheel locks and a first aid kit.


Damn it must suck to be poor.

it's my birthday bitches. hopin not to be forever 27

When does that new Badass album come out? And when does XXL release its Freshman mixtape thingy?

There's nothing good out here. That new Royce, I might give that a shot

 

[ARon]

Krit was good, j Cole isn't too bad. Those are like the two newest. I ran through the new Wu which actually sounded alright so I ha e to give that a full listen, I read Ghostface was solid as always. I'm dl'n PRyhme right now so I'll let you know how it is. Speaking of Royce and preme I feel like the whole world forgot aboutbthr bar exam mixtapes, anyone else get that feeling

Happy birthday. Don't worry 30 creeps up all quick

I can't listen to rap music anymore. It's been like that since 2008. Beats are interesting and neither are lyrics.

I just get into mode where I just go off the beat and if I like it I listen to it on replay for a while. Then the lyrics start to creep in and I realize they're shit and then get off the song completely.

KRIT was boring. Nothing like his King Remembered mixtape two years ago.

 

[dilla]

OK, this Prhyme album is pretty good so far. Royce never lost his edge from like ten years ago. Lyrics are still on point.

I like it a lot.

 

[dilla]

I got a tart warmer from my mom. It's been really good.

Anyone have a 3DS?
