Right, so my gran passed away recently, and I've been left £250 to get myself a gift for now. I want a Tag Huer watch, and I'm prepared to put another ~£150 towards it, giving me a total of £400 to play with. Not looking for anything brand new, want a pre-owned watch, for £400 or less.

Looked around a couple of jewellers today, and I wanna look on t'internet, but I don't know where to start, so can someone help me?

Don't waste money on jewelry! Think of all the beer you're missing out on!

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it

Put it in savings mate. Better than having a $400 watch that could potentially go missing on a drunken evening of entertainment.

Not allowed to just get the money, plus, I'll rarely wear it, I want one that will be worth a fair bit more than I payed for it in 25 years time.

Yeah, why the fuck would you spend £400 on a fucking watch. At least try and use it to get a driving license or something useful.

Because I'd rather have something that I can pick up and it'll remind me of my Gran, rather than a skill I don't need right now and I can get for free in 5 months time.

something you don't have.

I guess good advice doesn't count if you've not experienced it and are only passing the word.

No wait, this is all about not being an adult, again...

"christ" means "shut the fuck up now, marine he has got the point about not throwing his money away but if he is set on it leave it alone, and Finray/Camm stop bitching about marine".

£250 will not get you a degree, or a car.

Plus degrees're free here anyway.

Leave thread thanks.

I think a watch from his grandfather is a little more sentimental. It could be the start of an heirloom.

but yea, party party, drink drink is fun too.
