It`s time to take a look at time. There are so many timepieces available right now it`s hard to chose. What should we buy? Am I going to buy a new watch or do I invest in a solid vintage piece? It`s up to you. Of course a new watch will last perhaps a bit longer and almost always comes with a guarantee! Not unimportant when you are going to spend a significant amount of money. But does a new watch have as much 'soul' as a vintage one? Let`s have a look at some options:
Vintage style

| Omega Constellation (Source Ebay.com) |
The Omega Constellation. This would be a very good option if you are going to buy a vintage watch. This model is getting more and more popular. A few months ago you could pick up a good one for under $1000,-, this is almost impossible now. The current price range is somewhere around $1000, - $2000,-.
The Omega Constellation was in production during serveral years and some changes were made to this model. Your are now looking at one with a 'pie-pan dial'. You can also chose between a gold or metal casings.

| Jaeger LeCoultre Powermatic (Source Ebay.com) |
This Jeager LeCoultre coult be the ultimate dress watch. Jeager LeCoultre is in my opinion on of the top brands in 'haute horlogerie'. This piece you should be able to buy for $1.000, - $1.500,-. A lot of vintage watches have worn leather straps. You might want to replace that. Do yourself a favor and don`t buy the first strap you find on the web. There is a big difference in the quality of leather straps, and quality comes with a price!

| Rolex Submariner (Source Ebay.com) |
This is classic! This model is famous for appearing in eleven James Bond movies. This is a casual piece you can wear at almost every occasion. The version above has even got the popular Nato straps. This is a brilliant way to personalize your iconic watch.
