So if your iphone cost 70K, then you should spend more on the watch. Rules of thumbs are set by the manufucturers/retailers/businesses to push their products! I thought everyone knew this. Ever heard of this classical "rule of thumb": You should spend six months* salary on an engagement ring. *Or three months depending on who is quoting the "rule" and to whom! I thought it was 6 weeks wages for an engagement ring. But think about it, why spend 70K on an Iphone that will burn out in 6 months, but only 7K on a watch that basically defines you.

Got bored of it, put it some place for a couple of years, fished it out later, got it a new battery and it got back to business! Does it retail in Kenya though. Haven't seen it being sold anywhere. @Pariah,seconded. I love swatch.The one i have i bought it in 06,changed the battery once and it's in perfect shape. I would advice the person interested in buying a watch to go to swatch online and select one that suits his/her pocket. But the budget should be raised to 10k for a decent swatch. Check 2010/11 editions,2012 ones bei iko juu. About there availability here,i'm yet to see any genuine dealer around. Buying a nice watch doesn't mean you are spendthrift.Could be your phone cost much more than the watch. Mind you, a phone you keep on buying a new one every two years or so,whilst a nice watch lasts a lifetime,if not lost/stolen. I'd rather spend more on a watch than a phone.

A watch is a jewelry these days, its not that single purpose device that tells the time. Get one that speaks of your status. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

I have to admit having a good watch feels really awesome. It defines you... My Rolex does it for me.

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
