My one frend that I am not that close with (blunt & really sarcastic) told me that he would never spend that kind of money on my "Carteir Ballon" watch! The most shocking thing was he would rather have someone buy it for him, like a "sugar daddy"! For one, I dont have a "sugar daddy" and dont need one cuz I make decent money and can afford my own things! At least I have bragging rights to say I bought this with my OWN money and didnt have to get in bed with someone for it!!! sorry if that last sentence bothers anyone! I just hate it when my frends bring up my watch! Makes me not even want to wear it
