I do not need to see the internal workings whilst looking at the face.
(not a fan of skeleton watches).

A Swiss watch is very much like a beautiful woman...
I like mine with a rubber strap on.
Some with a sapphire, some with big hands, some with small and some with a crown. Some are also fake.
A watch is always better on the wrist, women always better off the wrist.
both need servicing, and empty bank accounts!

I don't know why she has to be beautiful. Just 'woman' will do.A Watch is like a beautiful woman...
I keep my women and watches in separate boxes.

I keep googling images of them from strange specialist websites, I think about them often but cannot mention them to my wife, and most of them I will never get even close to laying my hands on

I know some here who like them old and ugly with marks all over
The best ones are out of reach and to be admired on the arms of the rich and famous?
…No real idea how they work on the inside - hugely complex but a joy to behold.

A good face is important but a well finished rear is can be equally important.
They get better with age, especially when they are young

Difference is that a decent watch will have good time keeping.
some of the better looking ones seem to have a waiting list before you can get your hands on them.
The vintage ones whose internals have dried out can be improved with a good service ...
Agreed, but don’t expect the same level of performance as they provided in their prime! Also make allowance for cosmetic flaws, especially if they’ve had a hard life. Faces can be improved by cosmetic procedures but they never look quite like a well- preserved original.
Regular service and correct lubrication will produce pleasing results.
Not really, most beautiful women would never give me the time of day!
They're a distraction in shopping centres.
I like vintage watches but will leave vintage women for M4tt.
Both can be stolen.
Pedant alert " xxxxxx is very much like making love to a beautiful woman ", just for the record.

The older they get, the more trouble they seem to be.
