Will the J12 be a classic piece or is it more of a trendy watch that will go out of style? Cant really afford the J12 now

but might get the similar style which is the technomarine white ceramic

. Just want to make sure it'll still be a hot timepiece 10 years from now. Your thoughts please.

I think it's trendy, because it is so big. But I do love it!

Not trendy. I asked how long its been around & it been about 7 yrs. I don't think watches ever go out of style no matter what they look like.

I love it no matter what it is!!!

I think it's trendy. Accutron also has a lovely white ceramic watch.

Very pretty but absolutely trendy.

icechampagne · Aug 19th, 2007, 08:02 PM

I think it's trendy, but definately worth it

Vixy · Aug 20th, 2007, 02:48 AM

The J12 first launch in 2000, personally I think that is a long time to be consider "trendy".
Perhaps it is getting more attention the last 2 years because big watches are in.

Was wondering if this watch can be worn by elderly women too? Sorry for sounding silly but if I purchase a really expensive watch like the J12, I expect to wear it til I get old and gray. I have a rolex which remains a classic, whether you're young or old.

I saw many older women in their 40s in the full-on bling J12! I thought they rock! I'm also older btw!! I'm saving up money for another black one. It's been 2 months since my last bag purchase

. I really like my white J12 and I think it's already a classic, but the black one, that's a really a classic!

anette · Aug 20th, 2007, 07:28 AM

I love the J12's. I think it's totally fashionable (specially the white), but it's a future classic timepiece. Am I making any sense here..??

LVgal - The first time I really noticed one was on a Chanel sa who was about 60. She looked very elegent with it.
