April, I remember you being most impressed when I told you how good Seiko watches are: you were positively thrilled that you have one. I never said you were vulgar because of that — so why are you insulting me?

You’re right that it’s “personal choice” for someone to wear a watch costing many thousands in a high risk area; which is why all normal, sensible people don’t take that risk. I don’t know ONE person who does or would even contemplate it. It’s inviting theft. You’d have to be mad to such a thing. It’s exactly the same when friends have gone to South Africa for holidays: they NEVER take their valuables with them when driving through various towns — car-jacking is rife.

Do you SERIOUSLY think a normal person is going to advertise they’re a walking bank and risk getting shot?!

And don’t tell ME who I am: you don’t even know me

If you actually READ my post further back I SAID how rich people do NOT flaunt their wealth. They have no need to.  For some reason you seem to dislike monied people, which suggests you resent them. How can you dislike certain people depending on what they’re worth? How can you call them ignorant and vulgar because they are rich — despite them not flaunting it? How do you know your local GP, dentist, solicitor doesn’t come from an immensely rich family? They may be absolutely lovely, decent, kind, caring...and you may think the sun shines out their backside. But if you discovered they were seriously rich due to being born into a privileged family, would you decide you don’t like them? Call them ignorant and vulgar?



You will, of course, note that said watch wasn't an item I acquired because of it's 'Name'. It was irrelevant. Only bought to my notice by the person selling it. Yes, I was pleased to have my good tasted validated, so thank-you. I don't do designer. I don't do bling.

As for the social backgrounds of my doctor, dentist, and solicitor, my prime requisite is that I like them as people, my second being that they capable of executing the work they qualified to do in a way acceptable to me. I prefer NOT to know about the financial status of people. I'd rather judge them on their own merit.

Both upbringing and education advised me that speaking about wealth is vulgar. As is making the wild and extravagant claims you're so fond of. If such results in inverted snobbery, so be it.

It's tarnished due to continued use. Which is my point. They tarnish over time.
I originally thought the Cartier was a cheap knock off, until Myster posted a side by side. It's pretty apparent that it's a real Cartier, in my opinion. The strap looks to have been replaced, but replaced with a (probably more modern) Cartier strap.


Gold doesn’t tarnish, though...

Gold plate does. But you wouldn't have come across mere plate.

No, that’s not true

They don’t wear fakes, ever. But if travelling to a country known for its crime they’ll wear one of their cheaper everyday watches. What would be the point of wearing a fake and possibly getting mugged by a knife man?

Rich people don’t feel the need to flaunt their wealth, which is why they wouldn’t wear a fake Cartier

They also wear their cheaper everyday watch when going skiing or on a beach holiday so their good watches don’t get damaged or they lose it when skiing down black runs and possibly falling.

I never wear my good watches when travelling. I do wear two diamond rings which I never take off, and I have gold bands beneath them, which makes them even safer. On the very rare occasion when I’ve had to pass somewhere I’ve thought high risk I turn my rings around hiding the diamonds at the back of my finger so they’re not seen.

Likewise with my purse. When I’ve been to Venice which is renowned for pickpockets, I’ve taken an old purse with me and kept my cards/cash elsewhere.


Ok, my mistake-----what I really meant was cheaper alternatives, not fakes!

You do exaggerate, April

I post on here about the psychopath Jeremy Bamber. I don’t discuss myself. I don’t reveal any information at all — so as for you saying I’m “so fond of making wild extravagant claims” is in your imagination. And you clearly DO have a vivid imagination: you even accused me of once being a supporter of Jeremy’s! Whatever put THAT idea into your head? And as it was actually YOU who was once a supporter of his, and now you’re not, you’ve proved you misjudge people...badly.

Quite why you’ve started picking on me for no reason I’ve no idea.

And if you were brought up well, you’d have also been taught to be civil and not insult people when they’ve never done anything to upset you. As for upbringing and education, I was also taught the same values, and yes, I went to public school — so if you see that as bragging (which Im sure you will) that’s your problem, not mine.

Incidentally, rich people don’t talk about riches and money. And they don’t describe it as wealth....😌

Thank you for reminding everyone, Admin

For some reason almost everyone on this topic seems to be insulting me today...it’s very strange!

Him, him, him....all the time

Same old pattern

I don’t know why he’s bothered what his hair looks like — it’s not like he’s going out on the pull any time soon  @)(++(*

Would have thought it would be more hygienic to have kept his hair short in prison?

His letter states:
“I have very long hair Bon Jovi style. I’ll send you a Polaroid of it 6 months ago - it’s mostly worn in a pony tail as I work in a welding shop and I’d set it alight if I wasn’t careful. I’ve not receded or lost any hair which I’m very thankful about - I do have some grey but it’s all over and only a few and looks fine.

Was he without prison visits for several years?

Interesting how he doesn’t mention hygiene as a reason for tying it in a ‘pony tail’ but does refer to the danger of having long hair

That photo Aunt Agatha posted didn’t look anything like ‘Bon Jovi style’ hair to me https://www.thenational.ae/arts-culture/bon-jovi-s-hair-through-the-ages-in-pictures-1.127557#2

Did he grow a full beard at the same time ?

It doesn't have to be gold Spy. I have a Gucci watch and it's not precious metal - it has a diamond set in the face. but the metal is stainless steel.

Unless Seiko watches have a hallmark they are not gold. Many of them are coated with titanium nitride.

I wouldn't know, bought mine on Ebay for less than a fiver - it keeps perfect time and people always ask where I bought it.  8((()*/
