To LV or not to LV that is the question.

Ostrich ZCP coin wallet in Menthe (Mint green) : 2700$ tax included (released July first, delayed from May first - my previous thread)

OR

http://www.prestigetime.com/item/Glashutte-Original/Senator-Sixties-/39-52-01-02-04.html, which comes to 6400 tax included (Takes 12 weeks to have one made in Germany and shipped to Canada)

Either will serve as my 22nd birthday present in July, what do you guys and gals think?

Cheers

The zcp all the way

The Glashutte.

The Glashutte.

Yeah, what she said!

 

[Christofle]

Looks like you guys are following my train of thought, a watch is for a life and a heirloom to be passed down. I doubt a wallet would last more than a decade or two at best. Plus I have been having doubts that maybe the ZCP is a bit too feminine.

 

[rabbits]

Yes, as an investment or sentimental piece, I'll pick a watch over the wallet. Its a classic piece which will age well and the movement is lovely to behold.

 

[Christofle]

Just seems like a lot to plunk down on a watch, since I have never had more than my Timex.

This is a no-brainer. The watch.

I would go for the ZCP as I don't wear a watch I use mine all the time and I think the style is unisex.

 

[Alexis168]

I'd go for the Glashutte. It'll last you forever.

exactly.


if you can't afford both, get the watch first.


if i can't honestly afford something, i would not invest in something that would rarely be seen, even if a wallet is something i will pull out often.a watch will always be seen, and harder to steal.

my parents always said never to spend more on a wallet than the amount of cash you intend to carry in it.

i never have more than a thousand in cash, therefore i would never spend more than a thousand on a wallet.

Wow, Nikki, wise words from your parents.

Get the watch. You'll wear it forever A classic piece.

Fashions change, but a classic, elegant watch will never be 'out'.

This is coming from an LV fanatic who doesn't own a watch more expensive than my Michael Kors... but I'd much rather have the ZCP.
